Salam and Duaien !
We as a Nation are passing through the times which are difficult, challenging and DECISIVE IN MANY RESPECTS.....
Unfortunately we are unable to find the way out of THE LABYRINTH....though the AVENUES ARE MANY and PRACTICABLE.....Our faculties TO DECIDE have deserted us or so it seems, self confidence is shattered and WILL TO STAND UP is diffused...
INANITY is becoming hallmark and rationality is IRRATIONAL {the least}.
There have been people whose SILLINESS is Axiomatic and recorded like FOLKLORES. One such person was YAZEED BIN SARWAN from TAALBAH. His stupidities were EXCLUSIVE and UNIQUE.......Few are :
He wore a chain ornamented with Bones, Stones and Shells to eradicate the chances of being lost. One day his brother took the Chain and wore it. On seeing his brother Yazeed said you have become me..... .WHERE HAVE I GONE ?
Once his camel was lost..he announced..whosoever finds the camel, the camel will be HIS...SOMEBODY ASKED WHAT WOULD YOU GET? HE SAID I WILL GET THE PLEASURE THAT MY LOST CAMEL WAS FOUND.
Once People from Banu Tafawa and Banu Rasab disputed on a man that he belonged to their tribe......YAZEED CAME AND SAID DROWN THIS MAN AND IF HE COMES OUT ON THE WATER FACE DOWN...HE IS FROM BANU TAFAWA (TAWAFA MEANT 'UPSIDE DOWN') AND IF HE DOESN'T SURFACE HE IS FROM BANU RASAB (RASAB MEANT 'TO FAIL')....On which someone remarked JUDICIARY MUST BE MISSING YOU A LOT...YOU SHOULD BE A JUDGE.
Whenever he would take the Goats to the pastures, he would take only the strong ones and leave behind the weak and sick........................ PROCLAIMING THAT ALL THOSE WHO BEEN DESTROYED BY ALLAH WHY SHOULD I HELP THEM TO RECOVER.......
Reference : Book 'AKHBAAR UL HUMQA WAL MUGFILEEN' BY ABDUL RAHMAN BIN JOZI.....CHAPTER 8.
YOU MAY DRAW YOUR OWN INFERENCES FROM THE ABOVE.........AND MAY LIKE TO ANSWER........................................ARE WE ANY DIFFERENT?
