Stand in Total Humility and Meekness


"Why is an infant unable to walk and talk for at least one to two years after birth? Whereas, the camel, the horse, the donkey, the goat, the sheep, and even the chicken and all the others are given the ability to walk, and the talent to understand their maternal language from birth."

"Have you reflected? Why is an infant unable to walk and talk for at least one to two years after birth?

Because among these beings there are some who will become the owners of such capability and great mastery that they will then be pondering on the essence of the Almighty's Being. They will become people of authority. They shall remember this period of ignorance and incapability, and stand humbly in front of His Supreme Being.

"... and stand in total humility and meekness before Him Almighty."

Namely to be merciful and kind with the weak and helpless, for the sake of the Almighty's happiness Who has bestowed upon them this capability.{Mawlana Faizani}

Practicing Mercy and Kindness. Be merciful and kind with others who may be weak and helpless. Do it for the sake of the Almighty's happiness for He has bestowed upon you this ability. Be mindful of your period of ignorance and incapability, and think of the various wonderful blessings that God has given you! Practice mercy and kindness particularly when you feel irritated or when things are not going well. Mercy, kindness, forgiving and concealing others' faults are the most powerful tools for bringing about good on earth.
