Some realities

Today my beloved country Pakistan is facing lot of challenges. I am not going to discuss each challenge, but instead want to shade some light on few important things.
Way back our beloved Prophet Muhammad(SAW) emphases the importance of education. I don't think I need to write hadith in education importance coz a child even know those hadith. We always recite those in front of other to show how important those hadith and education is for us, but the fact is we don't know or don't try to understand them. The reality is that We have never given importance to education. We only get degrees in order to find high salaried job. We remember hadith only to show other that how much knowledge we have about our religion. When you try to get education only for having a job then the education you get only give you job, nothing else. The real aim of education is to become a good human being, to understand your own and other rights, to understand and use your own role in the society and stress other to use their role for the betterment of the society. We even use our religion where it benefits us, never try to follow its teachings. We blame each other some time bases on language and most of the time coz of religious affiliations. Most of us believe that If a person next to us is not following what I follow, even if the difference is very small. then we have every right to resist him, even take his life. how insane?
I wrote the above passage to tell you how stupid we are, try to deceive ourselves.
Okay, let me tell you about another stupidity we did and know bearing its fruits. Back in 80's a dictator ruled us, he leveled everything, our religion, our dignity, honor and modesty. I am talking about Zia, he who pushed us in darkness. In the name of religion(Jihad) terrorists were brought from different countries. This was never possible without the help of American and Saudi Arabia, history know it better. These terrorist were trained in Tribal Areas and then sent to Afghanistan for Jihad against then soviet union. They were given everything from weapons to money and were given free hand to do whatever thy like once soviet union left the country. I know how many people (Innocent) they kill in Afghanistan after getting control of the country. That was nothing else than sectarian violence; a more organized one. If you don't believe me than you better read the history of the initial days of Taliban government. When they were killing shias in different provinces of Afghanistan then nobody spoke about that, coz many were believing that they are doing good, killing shias is a sacred task. I even know that when they came to Orakzai Agency(Tribal Area) and started killing shias, majority of people support them. The situation is now completely different. They have now killed people from almost all sects.
Allah destroy even those who don't raise voice against cruelty. this is what happened with our Pakistan.
People didn't raise their voice against those terrorists at that time, believing that they'll never threat them. They didn't know that those terrorist were brought, feed and trained by our Army and had become wolf that can even bite their master, proven now.
The most disgusting thing is that people in this country still believe that those brutal people are doing everything according to sharia, at least a group of people believe this as they haven't seen the real faces of those bloody bustards. As I grew up in Tribal Area so I have seen everything.
what is the solution to this issue.
If I claim that I know about all these stupid things happening, then I should have a solution to this problem.
They only way these terrorist can be defeated is that we respect each other, each other religion, from religion I mean sects. This isn't difficult to respect each other as We all believe in One God, that Muhammad(SAW) is his last prophet and Quran is his book.
As Allama Iqbal(ra) said
Munfaat ek hai is qom ki nuqsan b ek
ek he sab ka nabi deen b Eman b ek
haram pak b Allah b Quran b ek
Kuch bari bat the hotay jo Muslman b ek

We should accept that shias and sunnis are living in this country and we are brother. We believe in same religion, so what to fight about. We should clearly understand that whoever try to or is trying to seperate us and make us fight each other are our real enemies. As long as they sheeps are present in our society we face the same danger time and again.
So please work for the unity of the nation. If we din't get united we all will destroy as we have already lost our dignity.
