Similarly the Social sciences and humanities are rediscovering some of the perennial truths that the Quran has taught for 1400 years.\r\n<p>\r\nThree gifts for our times that will save us from losing faith in Islam\r\n<p>\r\n1. <strong>Spiritual discipline not a quick fix<\/strong>\r\n<p>\r\nThe world of fast food, fast cars, flickering screens and self gratification at our fingertips is a hallmark of our age. It is important to help young people to see beyond this and develop spiritual discipline. This is a long process. It takes time and begins with learning  and spending time in the mosque with the right company and staying away from all the distractions but somebody has to do this and provide this.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n2. <strong>Relationships and mentoring<\/strong>\r\n<p>\r\nOurs is a society that is mentor hungry, people are hungry of authentic, significant and mature relationships. We must help people to relate lovingly to one another through God.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n3. <strong>Putting faith in Islam<\/strong>\r\n<p>\r\n<p>How do you view the current financial problems? The world is driven by greed, by this notion that you can be a master of the universe since you know how to shift few numbers and to sell toxic products and the borrower can the fooled to buy more toxic products.<p> It\u2019s a chain of greed. It\u2019s astonishing because people are suffering and those that are were never at the high table in the first place. They were not responsible for constructing these bizarre deals some of which are mind blowing. All are being dragged down by it and that is utterly tragic. The financial devastation caused by the European technocrats. This is mind numbing crass materialism. So don\u2019t be greedy!<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\nA story\u2019s told of a dog walking across a bridge with a bone in his mouth. When he looked down into the river and saw his reflection, he thought it was another dog with a bigger bone. So he jumped in to get it-and drowned. Human greed destroys dignity and sanity, making us miserly and selfish.<\/p>\r\n\r\nMay Allah protect us from the evil around us and give us the ability to stand up against it.\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The three dangers of losing faith in Islam 1.
