If only we think before we act.............

Salam,

I found this from a friend's status in FB. It's something that we should ponder on especially if we are trusted with other people's money. Our politicians and leaders should think first before they act or to be precised before they take money which are not theirs.


Abdul Rashid Moten:
What is the root cause of corruption in this world?
The answer is "MY"
When a person says: My wife, my son, my car, my house. He will do everything to make his wife most beautiful by painting and decorating with all the jewelleries in the world; the son must be well-fed and well-clothed; the car must be the best and the biggest; the house must be a palace, etc. If the salary is not enough then steal from wherever possible.

Therefore, Plato denied the rulers of the ideal state to have wives and children. No one is allowed to say my wife and my children.

Islam permits Muslims to have everything but NOT as owners. The owner of everything is Allah. Men can have these things as a trust and is responsible and accountable for how he/she uses them. There is no MY in Islam. Everything is from Allah and to Him everyone is accountable.
What do you reckon about this issue?
