Tend to the Garden

There is always that question about why G’d  “allows” certain things to happen in the world.  For instance, the Gaza genocide.  We seek to blame G’d for man’s shortcomings.

When it rains, does the rain not feed and nourish the weeds just as much as it does the plants in the garden?

Do you plant a garden then let the weeds take it over, then wonder why G’d let the weeds destroy your crop.

Or do you recognize what al-Qur’an is emphasizing when it tells us that we must “cultivate”?

Al-Qur’an describes Paradise as a garden (Jinnah).  To have a garden, you have to work it.  You have to cultivate it.  You have to keep the weeds out of it.

Does man fail to realize that, to preserve the good things of the garden he must get rid of the bad things (weeds) that are nourished by the rain and the soil, just as the plants are?.
