Eid-ul-Azha: A Call For Peace, Justice & Spiritual Renewal
Nagpur: Eid-ul-Azha, the Festival of Sacrifice, profoundly honours Prophet Abraham's (peace be upon him) unwavering devotion to God. His readiness to sacrifice what he cherished most, in submission to divine will, stands as a timeless symbol of faith, surrender, and moral excellence. Beyond its rituals, Eid-ul-Azha urges Muslims worldwide to reflect on justice, spiritual growth, and the duty to foster peace in a world divided by conflict and hatred. The Quran provides clear guidance: "Be steadfast in your devotion to God, bearing witness to the truth with equity; and never let hatred of anyone lead you into straying from justice. Be just: this is closest to God-consciousness" (Quran 5:8). This verse emphasises that righteousness must transcend personal animosity. Upholding justice, even for adversaries, is a cornerstone of faith and essential for global harmony. Acting justly in favourable settings is commendable, but true moral integrity shines when fairness is extended to those who harbour enmity. This higher ethical standard defines authentic morality and reflects divine wisdom. Prophet Abraham's life embodies these principles. His journey laid the foundation for a moral civilization rooted in piety, humility, and submission to God. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Вот что поза во сне говорит о вашем характере!
