In a hadith the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has encouraged that we should speak the truth even if it might be bitter or displeasing to ourselves or others.
Sometimes we may be deceived in believing that speaking the truth may lead to problems but speaking the truth leads to goodness and respectability.

Once there was a dispute between the Hindus and the Muslims over a plot of land which both of them claimed as their place of worship.The English Collector of the District privately inquired from the Muslims if they could name a Hindu in whose honesty they had full confidence so that the case might be decided on the basis of his evidence.
The Muslims said that they knew of no such Hindu.

The Collector then asked the Hindus whether there was a Muslim upon whose word they would be willing to let the decision of the dispute be made.The Hindus said that, grave as the matter was, there was a Muslim divine who had never uttered a falsehood and it could be hoped that he would not compromise his integrity over the issue in hand.
The divine came from the family of Mufti Ilahi Baksh, who was a pupil of Shah Abdul Aziz and a Khalifa of Sayid Ahmad Shahid.

The Collector, thereupon, summoned him to his court, but he declined saying that he had sworn never to look at the face of an Englishman.The Collector said that he need not look at his face if he did not want to, but come he must, because the matter in dispute was serious and its settlement hung on whether he came or not.At last the Moulana agreed. He came with his face covered with a mask and stood in the court, his back turned towards the Collector so that there could be no possibility of his vow being broken.

The case was explained to him and he was asked to state whether he knew anything about the ownership of the plot.
The Moulana declared that the plot in dispute belonged to the Hindus, the Muslims had nothing to do with it. The Collector decided accordingly.The Muslims lost the case, but truth scored a magnificent victory. A number of Hindus embraced Islam on that very day at the hand of the Moulana.

International Council for Educational Research and Resources is behind a number of deeds Brother Yusuf Islam encouraged Muslims.

Our natural world consists of things we can not do. These are the mountains, sea, trees and other plants, the beauty of landscapes, animals and the insects.Our world is composed of many interesting and beautiful things in nature, Alhamdulillah. We are increasingly aware that human activities are putiing nature in danger and at risk.

People are always more things neglected, as the habitat of plants, insects and animals. This is mainly due to pure greed and inconsideration. Many people are so driven by economic benefits that they are willing to endanger the welfare of the rest of creation. Perhaps it is time for all of us to ask how we can make a difference. As we all know, every little bit helps. We all are taking part in the home and that we reduce pollution and waste. Lets find a way to reuse what we can. We try to recycle as much as possible. All the great efforts of the Almighty and the rewards us, insha’Allah.
