Many people today
are filled
with feelings of isolation, hopelessness and anxiety. The spirit of man
has
been damaged and is often far from its essential nature. Many families
break
up, justice cannot be found, young people often do not feel nurtured,
and
individuals are made to feel like consumers whose only role in life is
to look
good, be entertained and spend. All this while the rich get richer, and
the
majority wallow in indebtedness and rising interest rates.
Without money and beauty; and
without the acceptable ‘look’ and ‘attitudes’, the individual is often left behind.
Eating
disorders, failed relationships and low self-esteem form a bitter,
vicious
circle of self destruction.
But people do
survive and are
able to grow and be better for their experiences. Drugs may stabilize
hormones
and chemicals within the body but at the end of it all, the soul needs
peace
and this peace is found in Islam.
