Indeed, GL. The Quran is a gift like no other and a message preserved and offered for our guidance.
Thank you for sharing such a meaningful video.
And yet despite this divine clarity look at where we are? Corruption, greed, injustice spreading faster than ever.
It makes me wonder:
Have we really engaged with the message, or have we simply admired it from a distance?
I often ask if the truth is so powerful, why do lies still rule the world? Maybe the real test is not whether the Quran is perfect... but whether we are willing to live by it, even when it is uncomfortable.
By "uncomfortable," I meant how the Quran calls us to rise above our lower selves but we often fall short. For example:
📖 The Quran tells us to give up selfishness and ego
➤ Yet many of us struggle to let go. Even here in this forum, it's often about "I am right."
📖 It calls out injustice, even when it benefits us
➤ But we continue to rely on corrupt systems in our daily lives without question.
📖 It commands us to be just—even against ourselves or our loved ones
➤ Yet nepotism and favoritism are deeply rooted in our cultures.
📖 It urges us to speak the truth, even if we fear consequences
➤ But we remain silent, afraid of people's reactions, unable to stand up for the oppressed in today's world.
📖 It reminds us of death, accountability, and humility
➤ Yet we boast about our houses, cars, and lifestyles as if we'll live forever. We chase wealth, play lotteries, and live for comfort.
and the list goes on.
