The Calamity of Materialism
Hazrat Maulana Yusuf Binnori (Allah fill his tomb with light )

Now a days the world has become the reception hall of different kind of calamities. Among thesecalamities a basic calamity is of stomach. Obsession with this and an attitude towards ease in life has become the main goal of life. Every one  is inclined to the attitude that easy earnings should satisfy his physical requirements. This calamity is so widespread that very few people are out of its range. Be it a tender or serviceman, be it a school teacher or  a college professor, be it an instructor of a religions seminary or an Imam of a Mosque – all are seen to be involved in this disaster. There, for fine grading, might be different levels of involvements. Detachment and contentment, fear (of God ) and consciousness (of God) and restrain and purity of intent –these characters and excellences and habits are not seen even in traces. It is the result of this that today’s environment, in spite of abundance of amenities  is burning in the furnaces of greed  and desires, and, rushing for riches and affluence and the smoke of pain and trouble, restlessness and dissatisfaction and disbelief and uneasiness has spread out to all the four directions.
