Faith and Country: Independence Day

May we shape our Lives in the light of this great saying of a Muslim Saint Mirza Nasir Ahmad who said: Love For All and hatred for None.

I read the comments of Imam Shamshad Nasir of Chino [here] and Rizwan Jattala of Ontario [here]. It is interesting that one is an immigrant while the other is a native born American, but both have one thing common, their religion is Islam that stands for peace.

The 4th of July is that day when our forefathers sacrificed all they had to establish PEACE and FREEDOM from the enslavement of the British, they offered immense sacrifices for all of us who enjoy every dawn of the day as we can live a life of our choice while maintaining the welfare of all who live in our neighborhood.

Not only I admire our forefathers but I cherish the declaration of Independence, truly it is better than any secular declaration known to mankind.
Every human being is respected and declared equal in it, this is the noblest sentence of our declaration, it is Godly and invite all of us to reject all forms of bigotry, religious, ethnic, economical or any other kind.

May we shape our Lives in the light of this great saying of a Muslim Saint Mirza Nasir Ahmad who said: Love For All and hatred for None.

That is the true Message of Independence Day celebration. LONG LIVE USA, LONG LIVE OUR NATION IN PEACE
