Ramadan, a time to right the wrongs
Our nation faces many hardships, and we are challenged to find solutions to the obstacles that block the path to continued strength and prosperity. As Muslims, we are required to act with a greater sense of responsibility to apply Islamic principles in our daily lives in order to build a healthier society for our younger generation.
Let us all strive to end the bad habits and social ills that go against Islamic teachings of moderation, compassion and hard work. To begin with, let us put an end to the obscene waste of food during Ramadan and eat in moderation. Let us show more respect for the blessings of God and cherish his gifts on earth.
Within the spirit of Ramadan, traders and the business community should willingly lower prices to ease hunger and poverty among the poor. The wealthy among us should be more humble and show compassion for the underprivileged and those in need.
In the spirit of Ramadan, let us show more respect for human life and show more compassion in our attitudes and behavior toward others.
