1 Thing Which If I do Every Day Make My Life "+"
......................................................................................................
That is, reading, reciting, and deciphering meaning of the Holy Quran,
Because, it is my perfect yardstick
Because it contains 'roots of all authentic knowledge'*
Because it provide true knowledge of nature of things and reality
Because it claims clarity and practicality
Because it is perfect guide for me, in whatever time and space be, to the meta-cosmic, cosmic and the world of after-life
Because it's verses open my heart and mind due to its poetic and rythmic music and draw my soul and body into rapture.
In short, as Iqbal says, that when in one's soul and body Quran enters, it never remains that same- it gives birth to a revolution in us... Only with that revolution in me I can hope to change my surroundings, or char su, as in Urdu.
