Alhamdulillah I am a mother of two children. But I don't want to live just as a mother. I want to live as a proud mother of one son and one daughter, if Allah Ta'ala bestows mercy and blessings.
After my daughter was born as my first child, her complexion was a little darker. I never saw it though. Because in the joy of motherhood I was alive then. I was at my father's house when my daughter was born. Because my mother-in-law is not alive. And my husband is a lonely man.
So I went to my father's house at that time.
Then, about three months after the birth of my daughter, I returned to my family.
The skin color of a three month old baby is black
The discussion about the future of the unit next to the flat will not be fair.
Everyone says that the color of the girl's skin will be like her father's.
Because his father's skin color was a little black.
The women of the flat used to say that if the girl was fair, it would be convenient for her to get married.
Their words ignited the fire in the head at the moment. So that day I forgot all about their age or respect and said,
‘Who else can see the color of his skin? Pray that his mind will be clear for the rest of his life! '
As the children get older, many changes take place in them. My daughter has also arrived. Today when someone sees my daughter. He immediately said, "What a beautiful fair-skinned girl!"
When someone compliments my daughter in this way, I say the same thing as before. ‘The color of the skin is relative, it will burn in the sun as it gets bigger. Pray that the color of the mind will be bright for the rest of your life. '
The same thing happened when my second child was born.
Currently my daughter is five years old running. And my son is two and a half years old running.
But now when anyone sees two brothers and sisters together, Alhamdulillah praises their beauty.
But as a mother I am never proud of all this.
Because I think it's more important for me to be human than to be human.
So one day my children will develop themselves as worthy people to be successful in this world and in the hereafter. On that day, I will prostrate myself before Allah Ta'ala as a successful mother.
There are still a lot of people in our society who have to suffer a lot just for the color of their skin. The girl does a job, a small job. But I'm sure he'll get better soon. It must be. Because of his impossible good use.
Even then the girl's father has been sick lately thinking of her daughter's marriage, and so the smiling girl is also sad nowadays.
As a girl I can understand her pain.
And I keep thinking, even in this 2021, people's mentality has not changed in many places. Fairness cream would not have been so popular in the market.
I have also seen many such incidents in our society. Because their idea, they say black - her husband saved her by marrying.
Seeing these thousands of incidents, sometimes I feel very tired.
We consider ourselves the inhabitants of many modern and advanced technologies.
But have we really become modern and advanced ??
Have I been able to be as generous as the sky by giving up all narrowness of mind ??
I do not know when the lockdown of our minds will really cut!
The light of true generosity will shine in the minds of all of us.
