Have we ever tried to find out hollows in our soul, in our personality? We are here in the world to just pinpoint others? And such is the society that it just highlights the negative point about someone and doesn’t consider the positive aspect of that person.
If you consider yourself free of any shortcomings, ask your friends or loved ones, maybe you are wrong about yourself! Yeah, if you are just telling your friends their mistakes or something like that, it’s good then, that is a good friend shouldn’t be praising his/her friend all the time, if they are truly sincere, they would like to inform their friend something that if they would be better at, will enhance their personality.
But, if you don’t know about a person, you haven’t met them, you don’t know about their life so closely then how could you be judgmental? For instance, consider any celebrity like Shehroz Sabzwari. People just started to comment about the lives of Saira and Shehroz. I understand the fact that people have developed feelings for their fans and celebrities but merely judging them without knowing any detailed reason, commenting about their lives, and posting such kind of stuff is against moral ethics. And even promoting it is not even good.
This is something personal i.e., their marriages, etc. Yeah, if they are famous, they try to give an update to people about their lives, otherwise, they won’t even bother to tell. The point is here that you shouldn’t be judgmental when you don’t know about their lives so closely.
Sad to acknowledge this, but it’s true that merely judging the person, forming negative opinions, mocking or ridiculing them, and making memes are the only that our society knows. Maybe they know much better than me but they find amusement doing this and therefore they enjoy doing this all stuff.
If someone humiliates our lives, tries to make fun of us ……what even? We would never like this attitude and always condemn it. Yeah, some people on the other hand claim that if the same attitude goes for themselves, they are bold enough and would never mind. It is ok. But let me make it clear, the treatment you like with yourself doesn’t mean that you can do it with another person as well especially if you don’t know much about them and their personal details, etc.
In Quran, Allah (SWT) says in Surah Hujurat: “O you who believe! Let not some people among you laugh at others, perhaps they may be better than them.”
From this verse, it is clear that we are not here to comment on other people’s lives, we have to see ourselves. One should be foremost to see their own acts or mistakes and try to rectify them. If we try to change ourselves then we could indeed vanish this pessimistic wave. Ultimately, this could be helpful in generating a positive environment around you.
Happy reading!
