The grave yards are the places which are specialized for burying the dead people, and they can’t be buried in any other place. But nowadays; because of the serious housing problem in Egypt, some people found the grave yards as an ideal place to enjoy the uncommon serenity.
The dead are dead; they do not do any thing in life any more. Although we became so sad when we lost some one we love, but soon he will be forgotten in spite of the habit of visiting the grave yards in all occasions.
Although burying the dead in housing regions is illegal, there are some dead who are not in graves. According to the definition of the dead person is that: some one who do not do any thing in life any more, there are many living people who are dead. Many people are so desperate that they sleep, wake up, work, they do every thing without hope or the sense of life, exactly like the living corpse. They act exactly like the patient who is said to be that he is a hopeless case, so they spend their days waiting for the real death.
The living man is not just who moves, works, and breaths, but who acts and reacts with life with its sweet and sore things. The real living man works hard to achieve better life. Man was originally created to prosper and populate the earth, but many people do not work for that purpose.
Life is full of difficulties, and many people are so poor that they can’t get their essential needs, but this can’t be an acceptable justification for being such desperate. It was mentioned in the Holy Quran that man is created to live in hard circumstances for reason known by only God. And the Muslims should believe in Allah and never surrender to fear or desperation.
We should be more patient and work hard to change our life into better. And Allah told us in the Holy Quran that his merci can forgive any thing and we should have a strong belief in that.
Life is full of difficulties, so God provided us with some qualities that help us to live, like oblivion and patience. If it weren’t for oblivion, no one would forget his sadness and his life would end by sadness for life disasters one after the other. Sadness is a human quality, so God did not prevent us from feeling sadness and sorrow, but prevented us from being sad and desperate for a long time. We should turn to God to help us to be more patient to face the life disasters. And also we should accept God’s fatalism.
And we have a good example to follow, the prophet Mohammad, best prayer upon him. When his only son Ephraim died, in spite oh his great sadness; he accepted his son’s death in anticipation of God’s reward.
The man is liable to be afflicted with the death of some one he loved, the loss of his money, or with a kind of disease. This is the nature of life. Desperation is the worst thing that may happen to some one. It also may cause people to end their lives by attempting suicide. Desperation is exactly looks like the quadriplegia, when happens to some one it makes him not any more able to move any of his organs.
The worst kind of people is who live our daily life, but actually they are dead, of course not that physical death, but their minds are dead with no hope. The problem is not their desperation, but the real problem is that the other people are affected by their desperation. If they talk about some thing, they depict it as its worst; the education system has failed, the government is corrupted, the ruling system is a dictator one, the future is dark and mysterious, every thing is going to be damaged, every thing is going to fail. Desperation makes men lose their ability to work and produce, it kills his energy and desire to work for better. It turns him to be a living corpse. Desperation is a fast means used by enemies in psychological wars to destroy a whole nation, an easy way.
I don’t know which way is the most suitable to deal with the desperate people. Is isolation good for them least they affect the others? Or to count it as one of the psychological diseases that should be cured?
Actually desperation is a disease more dangerous than cancer or EIDS, its infection is easily and fast transported by dealing with the patient, by air, or even by the remote inspiration. When some one is affected by desperation, there will be nothing but suicide, and when a nation is affected by it, it will be the end of the world.
