Some great mothers ? What do you mean some great mothers ? Aren’t all mothers great ? Yeah, well I know that the Facebook and all social media is all soppy about the greatness of mothers … but it really makes me wonder … that aren’t there good and bad people all over the world, in every community and within every role ? I mean we have the good and bad cops, right ? And good and bad doctors, right ? And good and bad teachers, right ? So why is it so impossible to have good and bad parents ? Good and bad moms ?
Now what possibly could be the criteria for defining a good or bad mother ? Well, it may depend on whether you live in the East or the West, which community you live in or what religion you follow. For example, Hinduism has a very base criteria for a good mother. If she is meeting your basic needs of giving you food and water, she is a very good mother. Why do I say so ? Because the Hindus proclaim the cow ‘Ma’ as well, simply because it provides us humans with milk. And for that they consider the cow holy and hold it in the greatest esteem. Some extremists even kill fellow Muslims who believe differently and slaughter the cow for meat after the milk. And what about Christianity ? Well, I guess the Christians have a very high spectrum for the possibilities of motherhood because they believe the Virgin Mary to be akin to wife of God, the Holy Father and mother of Jesus Christ and hence, she becomes the Holy Mother. Muslims do not believe so, but are just notches away from proclaiming the mother holy as well. Yes, Islam does put a lot of emphasis on the respect, love and care towards a mother and elevates her to such a high status that Jannah has been placed beneath her feet.
So you just give birth and Jannah flies to under your feet ? You think its as easy as that ? Well, animals also give birth. Pigs also give birth. Bitches also give birth. So do they qualify for Jannah beneath their feet ? In the supernatural world, the witches and genies also give birth. So do they also qualify for Jannah beneath their feet ? I don’t think so. I know, I know. You would say that how can I try to make any comparison between humans, genies and animals, because Allah Almighty has declared humans superior to all of His creation. Well, the same God has defined for humans how to be humane. You can’t just qualify for humanity without being humane. This life is a test and all of us have to prove our worth for being human. We have our common roles, individual roles and multiple roles. Being given life is like getting a questionnaire with a blank answer sheet in an examination hall. The answers that you have written by the end of your life, quantifies your score and qualifies your final status. Yes, for us mothers too.
While men do different tasks, odd jobs and projects, we women have our own projects as well. Each one of our children is an individual project and we need to work hard on it. Sure, the dad has a very important and constant role in the upbringing of the children, which only increases with time, but the mothers have the primary role. Why do you think primary school teachers are women ? Because they have the passion, compassion and comprehension to nurture, develop and build the character of little humans. Except for the corrupt women. Except for the corrupt teachers. Except for the corrupt mothers.
Whoa ? Corrupt mothers ? How can a mother be corrupt ? Mothers are supposed to be holy since birth … of course mothers can be corrupt too ! As said afore, just like a random person can be corrupt, a teacher can be corrupt, a mother can be corrupt as well. The process of birth does not give a mother a free, automatic, character makeover. After the genes, she passes on to her children her vision, her mission and her ideology !
And that’s what makes Shaukat Khanum, mother of PM Imran Khan, a great mother ! And that’s what makes Major Adil Raja’s mother, a great mother ! And that’s what makes Usman Dar’s mother, a great mother ! They have given birth to these great men and bloomed them into such visionary and brave men who are struggling with all their might for the freedom of Pakistan … once again after 1857 and 1947 !
And shame upon the upbringing of Nawaz Shareef, Asif Zardari, Fazl ur Rahman, Musharraf, Bajwa and so on . What stooges were brought up ! What worthless characters ! What lousy creatures ! It just proves that not all mothers are great. Yes, its true that its possible that a mother is good but she discovers a bad egg in her nest. But, then, the question is, what is her response ? If I had sons like any of these foul personalities, I would have used my authority, as a mother, and ordered them to fix themselves or get lost. If they had persisted, I would have slapped their evil faces and publically denounced and disowned them. But what are their mothers doing ? Enjoying the evil fruits of their evil upbringing ! Woe unto you thy mothers !
