Imagine that there is jinn appeared to you and said: Here I am at your service, and asked you to tell him ten wishes to make them true at once. What are you going to say? Absolutely you will be so surprised that you will not be able to speak. Or may be you lost consciousness from the surprise; as the time of miracles had passed, or may be because there was never any one offered to serve you by this generosity and luxury through your whole life. You used to ask and cry to get something you want, and in spite of all this you get no response.
Most people wish a house and a good wife. They are the most common wishes in the Arab communities. The problem of unemployment and the expensiveness are two main reasons of being these wishes the most desired among the Arab youth.
Some other people will sigh and think for a while and begin to tell their wishes, which are money, car, villa, beautiful wife, business, being famous and power. We can't deny that there are many wishes that differ from person to another, but we admit that the previous wishes are the most desired ever.
Of course we may find some one who wishes that Palestine set free, or wishes the unity of the Arab back again. All these wishes are normal legal ones, but according to the nature of man; they will ask their personal wishes first, as the personal needs are more important than the public ones. According to logic; food is more important than work, and health is more important than money.
When yoo think about these wishes, we will find that all of them can't last for a long time, and there is nothing that may assure its endurance. Money may be lost in the stock market, cars may be destroyed in a traffic accident, the house is liable to burn, your marriage may end by divorce, your corporation is liable to bankrupt. Also the fame and glory may come to an end suddenly. There are so many famous people who lost their reputation when they lost their position and power. The point is that nothing can last for ever. Life is changeable.
These wishes may be the only way for happiness, just by thinking about them we feel better, but when we consider them well; we find that all these wishes are temporary ones, nothing can assure its endurance, and what is the use of a dream that comes to true and ends after a while? What is the use of being rich for a while and then suddenly you are poor again?
So; can money, cars, villas, high position, and many other things that all we wish; can they make us happy? No, they can't. Because there are many people who are rich, have expensive cars, huge villas, etc, and they are not happy, they never were happy. Their only wish is to sleep calmly and deeply by achieving the spiritual peace.
When we have a dream that came to true, we have another dream which is the lasting of the first one for ever. But the fact is that nothing can last for ever. But there are some things in our life that may last for ever.
Some may think that freedom is the lasting dream. Some may think that democracy can last for ever. But actually even the moral dreams can't last for a long time. The first and the most important rule in life are: Life is based upon change.
I thought for along time about a dream that if it came to true; all dreams can come to true then. After a deep thinking I found that justice is the only thing that can last and by which all dreams can cone to true. Justice is the only thing that can keep our dreams from being lost.
Justice can keep money. Justice can prevent expensiveness. Justice can achieve equality. By justice you can get all opportunities, use all your abilities to get he best chance. Justice can assure success by estimation of the abilities. Justice can put an end to crimes, poverty, and worry. It can offer safe for all. There will be no fear about money, future, position, and family.
The ruling era of the Muslim Caliph Omar ibn Abd Al-Aziz is a good example of currying out justice every where. During this era, prosperity and justice were spread all over the Islamic countries, there were no poor. It was said that Fatima, the Caliph Omar's wife, saw him weeping in his oratory, she asked him: what's wrong? He said: " I thought about all my people; all the poor of my people, the miserable, the weak, the sick, and I realized how much I am responsible for every one. I am afraid of being not responsible enough, so I am crying."
Justice has a high position in Islam. It is the Divine order which was mentioned many timed in the text of the holy Quraan and Hadith; the prophet's speech.
"justice is the most important rule for ruling" is an Arab proverb, which assures the importance of justice in any ruling system to achieve prosperity and happiness for every on in the society. Justice is the dream that can make all dreams true. It is the way to the real eternal happiness.
