Asalam wa Alikum
Sixth Topic
The importance of get-to-gathers between the neighbors
Among the matters
that help fulfill the rights of the neighbors, particularly in this era
in which preoccupations, distractions and temptations dominate, are the
following: To meet each other regularly; to meet each other in every
month or two months at the house of one of them or alternately. Also to
exploit these meetings in the following: in acquaintance and rapport,
strengthening love and relationships between each other, discussing the
conditions of each other, helping each other in the occasions of sadness
and happiness, inspecting the absent, visiting the patient, assisting
the needy, rectifying the behaviors of those who follow the crooked
path, giving advice to each other, discussing the conditions of area
where they live in and its needs to services and reforms, solving its
problems, tackling abominable acts like negligence in performing
prayers, or dubious gatherings, loitering, teasing, molestations,
wandering with motors, aggressions, theft or the like. All these matters
represent a form of helping each other in goodness and piety, taking
care of the neighbors and treating them kindly.
Proper attention
should be given to the matters of the young and children through taking
care of preparing the righteous environment. This righteous environment
helps prepare and educate them well, protect them from different types
of abominable acts and indecencies that are spread in some residence
areas due to the negligence of neighbors and parents and due to lack of
helping each other in upbringing youth, preparing the suitable climate
for purifying their souls, rectifying their morals, urging them to
compete each other in goodness and abandon the places of corruption and
evil.
The area of
residence should play as an integral part to the role of house and
school. It should help achieve reformation and education, particularly
the role of the area mosque which must be activated. This activation
will be through teaching and Qur'an memorization circles and sessions of
preaching and remembrance of Allah. It should be a source of light and
guidance for everyone who visits it habitually or lives around it from
the dwellers of the area.
