First Lady Begum Mehmooda Mamnoon Hussain Tuesday stressed upon students to fine?tune their lives
by strictly adhering to basic moral values without which a society could not
aspire accomplishment, rather in their absence, it could head towards
anarchy. She noted that majority of problems being
faced by the world had emanated from the lack of such basic traits in a
society.
She was addressing students of Anjuman Faiz?ul?Islam Mandra
here at the Aiwan?e?Sadr. Principal Mussarat Shafique and other staff members
were also present on the occasion, a press release said. The first lady said the main purpose of her meeting with students was to
promote interaction between the older generation and young ones so that good
values and lessons could be passed on to the latter, helping them to become better human beings and good Muslims. She referred to the teachings of Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon
Him) which were based upon moral values and ideal behaviour. The first lesson of basic moral values was being taught to children at
homes that is respect for the elders, have affection for younger’s ensure
rights of others and help the distressed etc. These traits are the part and
parcel of our lives, she added.
Begum Mehmooda stressed upon the students to get guidance from
the sublime teachings of Holy Quran and the life of our Holy Prophet Muhammad
(Peace be Upon Him) in that regard. She also stressed upon
promotion of feelings of mercy and forgiveness in the society, besides
discharging the obligations related to rights of other members of the society. The permeation of basic moral values in a society adds beauty and
congenial feelings in the mutual relations, purging the society of all ills and
putting it on the path of prosperity, she observed. She said through promotion of moral values, our beloved country Pakistan
could be turned into a heaven?like abode.
