The Importance Of Minor Matters At Home (Article) by Ghulam Ahmed Parwez

The Importance Of Minor Matters At Home
Eleventh Letter to Tahira
My dear Tahira, you must be wondering about the fact that on the one hand, the Quran suffices with basic instructions on important matters of life, while on the other hand it gives specific guidance on minor matters in society. For instance: "Don't be caustic to people; do not shout (or yell); do not be arrogant; get permission before you enter somebody's house; How you should sit formally; if you have completed your work, do not waste other people's time in aimless talking etc. etc". But my dear, perhaps you have not pondered over how important these little things in life are! Major problems are faced in life occasionally, and these are generally confronted by special people. But you come across these everyday happenings at every step in a society, and by everybody.
