Self-Correcting Mechanism

for society, he should convey to people positive vibrations of life,
just as a tree supplies fresh oxygen to man, and he should provide
shelter to his fellow human beings.

A green tree makes our world beautiful. Without trees, our
Earth would be barren. A tree is a giver member of our world.
It gives everything but on a unilateral basis. For example, a tree
continuously supplies fresh oxygen but it never sends the bill for
it. Similar behaviour is required of both men and women.

A good man is one who is like a good tree. A tree
begins from a seed, then it turns into a plant, then
a strong trunk, then branches and leaves, and then
flowers and fruits.

Men and women must live in their society as giver persons.
They must adopt this culture on unilateral basis. They must live
in their society in such a manner that society may always benefit
from them. Like this, men and women can make their society
like a beautiful garden.

Self-Correcting Mechanism

here are one hundred and fourteen chapters in the Quran.
TAl-Zalzalah (The Earthquake) is chapter number ninety-nine.
There is a story relating to this chapter in which there is a great
lesson.

It is said that once a man came to the Prophet and after some
discussion, he accepted the Prophet’s faith. Then the Prophet said
to him: “Stay with Ali ibn Abi Talib—one of his companions—for
your further training.”
