The greatest mark of a man’s being flawless is that the does not seek flaws in others.

Divine Wisdom (Urdu Lecture)

The world is full of problems for all except for those who know the art of problem management. People usually spend their entire lives in trying to confront and eliminate problems. What they do not understand is that problems are a part of nature. And who has the ability to fight nature? So a wise man is one who does not try to eliminate problems, but rather tries to manage them. How does one do this? As per the Creation Plan of God, problems have been put into the world so as to create situations of test for man. What we have to do is, instead of confronting the problems adopt the divine formula of ‘ignore the problem and avail the opportunities.’ This is the art of problem management and one of the few examples of divine wisdom given in the Islamic Scriptures, followed by Prophet Muhammad.
