If you want to save the generation, create a system now, at this very moment.
✍🏻 Muhammad Palanpuri
What is happening in the Muslim society is no longer just news, but these are alarm bells, sounds of decline, and a harbinger of the coming storm.....
A girl gets married through social media, a boy goes astray from home, incidents of apostasy, tragedies of wrong relationships, and countless other evils have increased, and unfortunately, parents are not even aware of what question is brewing in their children's minds, in what world they are living, and in what depth they are drowning. Listen! This is not just an individual's problem, but the entire Ummah's problem. And the tragedy is that we are standing in front of this problem as if it has nothing to do with us!....
Non-Muslim nations create training systems for their youth, run character-building courses, conduct mind-shaping camps, strengthen their thinking, answer their questions, and teach them the principles of practical life. They do not abandon the generation.
But what about us? We have no plan, no curriculum, no training structure, no direction. We merely mourn the incidents, there is discussion for a few days, then silence prevails, and the wait for another accident begins.
The truth is that now this silence has become a disaster for us. This is not just a time for emotions, but a time for decision-making. If we still do not create a comprehensive training system, this generation will slip through our hands like sand disappears as soon as it falls into water...
We have to establish a mandatory training course in every village, and this is not an option, it is necessary, the last effort to save this Ummah.
This course should include beliefs (Imaniyat) so that the youth can know that being a Muslim is a responsibility, an identity, a trust...
It should include Islamic studies (Islamiyat) so that religion does not remain just a few rituals, but becomes a complete system of life...
The doubts that arise in their minds should be answered scientifically, rationally, and with full arguments so that they do not fall prey to any propaganda.
They should be taught the tricks of anti-Islamic forces so that they can protect their intellectual integrity...
They should be taught about an unblemished youth so that they can know that character is the real identity of a person.
*And most importantly, there should be training in marital life* because boys and girls who get married are unaware of the principles. How to build a home? How to maintain relationships? How to resolve differences? These are all things that make life secure, but neither the home nor the society provides knowledge about them.
We need to understand with full force that creating this system is not just advice, it is a condition for survival. If such a training structure is not created, the coming generation will be lost, and we will be left wringing our hands in regret. Then, no matter how many speeches we give, how many fatwas we write, how many pieces of advice we give, the destroyed generation will not come back.
We have to decide now, take action now, create a system now. This is the time to establish a system to prevent accidents instead of crying over them.
Otherwise, history will write that there was an Ummah that had the Quran, scholars, but no system. And because of the lack of a system, an entire generation was destroyed.....
