I borrow the title of the article from the title of the wonderful novel by Khalid al-Dhikr Tawfiq al-Hakim, but in the context of our difficult times, with its events, surprises and dilemmas that sometimes seem insurmountable or even comprehensible. In light of the living conditions that the current generation did not go through, it seems that we have not learned the lesson, and we have not noticed what is going on around us, for when we are supposed to have compassion, and each of us will be support, support and help for the other, the opposite happens, as exploitation and electronic fraud have spread, and domestic violence increased. Divorce cases increased, and even cold-blooded killings increased. Just last week, I read several incidents, the perpetrators of which were more aggressive in criminality, without any iota of mercy or humanity, and there is no justification for this violence that occurs to the closest people, for most cases are of a husband who kills his wife, Or a wife who kills her husband, or a brother who kills his brother. As for the cases of abuse and domestic violence, there is nothing wrong with that!

What opportunity can we take to recover our souls? What better conditions than the current conditions for us to cooperate, band together, and interdependence, if not financially then at least morally, if we are unable to help our neighbor who has lost his job or lives without income and is overwhelmed by his affairs, and he cannot feed his children, then at least we feel that we feel it, and that it He is not alone, what is the cost of contacting a person who lives alone so that we can ask about him and be assured of his conditions? One call may save a person’s life and give him hope in life. There are many ways to help, whatever our circumstances, whatever our conditions, and what we do not realize is that our help to others may benefit us more than it helps others, as this gives us a sense of the value of our existence, and a continuous positive energy Let us always remember that “a person has nothing but what he strives, and that his pursuit will be seen”, and that “whoever does the weight of an atom of good will see it, and whoever does the weight of an atom of evil will see it”, is it difficult for a person to be a human being as God Almighty wanted him ?! Isn't it worth trying seriously?

Fortunately there are many people who do not spare any effort in the happiness of others, and in giving, but it seems that they are few these days, what if all of us started by himself, and did something good to help a person, and if we did not know him, what if we contacted periodically with our distant parents to reassure their conditions Instead of the saved and repeated "WhatsApp" messages that are sent to everyone, and do not carry any feelings or interest. Doing good is not that difficult, and restoring our souls is the best thing we can do, so what does a person gain if he loses his humanity?
