Injustice

According to Almighty God' all human beings are equal except in their piety. But in our world of today the situation is totally different. We say justice should be observed everywhere in every aspect but when it comes to reality, its injustice which is dominant everywhere.
But have you ever thought about the reason? It’s the human beings who are responsible for this situation. We all think about our interests and how to maintain them forever no matter at what cost.
Some examples would help the issue become clearer. Consider our driving behaviors, when we don’t care the red sign and pass the junction which may result in an accident taking one's life.
How about cheating when we are doing business with other people
How about cheating when we are doing business with other people

How we try to sell our products at any cost.

To make the long story short, I would like to say the whole social system is a matter of self-interest. This is the main cause of injustice

One snake for two people in Indian village
by Sailendra SilFriAug 31, 11:40 PM ET
For some people, a poisonous snake hissing in their courtyard is the stuff of nightmares. But in this sleepy village ineastern India, the reptiles are welcome and abundant.
The village of Choto Pashla in WestBengal state has one snake for every two residents, mainly the poisonousmonocled cobra, a black reptile with a yellow ring around its neck that cangrow to seven feet (two meters) in length.
Such snakes are found everywhere -- inrice fields, ditches, muddy ponds and even sometimes sunning themselvesby houses -- and no one appears to fear them.
"The poison-fanged reptilesrepresent a way of life in Choto Pashla. People of the neighbouring villagesare scared to come here," said Samir Chatterjee, the local schoolheadmaster, who has written a book about the snakes.
"A recent count by the villagersfound there are more than 3,000 snakes in this village of 6,000 people."
The Geological Survey of India isstudying the village to figure out why the cobras are flourishing there, anofficial said.
"We wonder why a particular speciesof snakes is thriving in this village,"said the official, asking not to be named. "We are looking into the topography of the village."
Local lorehas it that the reptiles first came to the little rice-farming village 130 kilometers(80 miles) northwest of the state capital Kolkata en masse six centuries agoduring a flood.
The Hindu village began worshipping thesnakes as the representatives of a goddess and believe that their farms haveconsequently prospered ever since.
"Women offer milk to the reptilesat midday when the priest worships the goddess of snakes, Manasa, in thetemple," said Chatterjee.
When a snake dies, the villagers placeit in an earthen jar and then immerses it inthe sacred Ganges River.
Still, apart from feeding them andperforming their last rites, the villagersdo try to keep the snakes at arm's length, or more.
"Our customsforbid us from touching the snakes,"said 25-year-old Dipu Majhi who was bitten by a snake nearly five years agowhile fishing in a pond.
Nearly a dozen villagers die of snake-biteevery year, locals say, with the village still relying on traditionaltreatments.
"I was asked to bathe in the pond beside the temple of the goddessof snakes and then a pinch of mud from the temple compound was rubbed on theinjury," said Majhi, a fish and vegetable seller.
"My hand swelled but healed after a week."
Anti-venomdrugs are available at some hospitals in the state, but these may not be nearenough for the villagers to get to in time.
"It's a unique village wherepoisonous cobras are co-existing with humanbeings," said Dipak Mitra, a herpetologist.Mitra also runs a snake park in Kolkata with 700 species of the reptiles, andhas visited the village.
"It's simply incredible," he said.

Mehrieh

In my point ofview we can't give this question an exact answer since it depends on people.

As an unique Iranian custom in the past thefamily of bride would ask the groom to pay an amount of something such as moneyto the bride

At the time noone would give or take this money or gold but in our time the story is totallydifferent

Little by littlethe amount of the custom became more and higher so that no man was able to paythem in case the woman asked him to pay

The brides wantedto put husbands in such a situation that could do nothing but obeying whateverthey say

Some women tookthe opportunity and took all the properties of their poor husbands. It was thetime that men were sent to jail just for not paying this Mehrieh.ع. Somemen were condemned to pay the amount monthly on the basis of their income. Buta short survey of divorce statistics shows that such high Mehrieh could notprevent men to divorce their wives.

On the other handwomen call this Mehrieh a support for their matrimony. There are men who arenot loyal to their wives. They usually have a secret woman in their lives. ThisMehrieh has been used as a tool for taking revenge from these capricious men.

Hijab

Should we consider it mandatory

Even pronouncingthe term itself is challenging enough to arouse a debate among the people who hearit especially if they are female. But why the issue is such complicated in oursociety?

Beforehand let'ssee what the history tells us. It was in 17 of Dey in 1314 when under the periodof Reza Shah Modernization, women were asked to remove Islamic veils and discardHijabin favor of Western dress. Reza Shah banned Chador and ordered all citizens -rich and poor - to bring their wives to public functions without head coverings.But in spite of what most people thinkIt was not the originthough years ago at the time of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, for the firsttime a woman removed her veil in presence of men. Later Women's rights movementin Iran began. Some women criticized the Hijab and called it a sign against modernity.

After the removal of RezaShah by British forces, women were permitted to wear traditional chadoralthough this time, except for a minority; it was the women who showed nointerest in wearing traditional dress and preferred the modern western outfit.

Following the 1357Revolution, several laws based on gender discrimination were established suchas the introduction of mandatory veiling and public dress code of females.

The history was repeated,but this time vice versa. The government forced women not to unveil their head.

In the mid of 60' that fewwomen tried to ignore the law by replacing Chadors with some type of overcoatscalled Manteau and wearing sheer stockings. At the time they were afraid ofbeing punished by the government. In the beginning of 70' the change in womendress became more apparent. Women started to use colorful Manteau instead ofblack which was the dominant color of women clothing.

In 1376 reformists won theelection and came to power, and not before long some rumors about abolishingmandatory Hijab law were heard for the first time after the Islamic revolution.

Gradually Manteaues becametighter and shorter, and nail polishing became popular again. Now, women were notafraid of the government anymore since reformist leaders' motto was to givewomen more freedom in every aspect.

In 1384 Islamic conservativeparty took the power again. The officials did not toleratethe way women wear clothing, and decided torevive Islamic laws concerning people behaviors in society in which Hijab was impliedtoo. They asked men and women to observe Islamic laws with what they choose wear,but the women resisted and the government was forced to use police power.

For a short period of time, and by the help ofpolice the women became more careful with their outfit, but the situation didnot last long.

What the government couldn’tdo was changing the mind and notion of people. Now a lot of people believe Wearing Hijab is not only a sign of modesty buta real hindrance toclimbing the social ladder, a badge of backwardness and a marker of class. On theother hand, wearing tight and sheer clothes like shortManteaues, supports and ultra-sheer stockings is considered a sign of highsocial class and enlightened thinking.

Some people take arelativist approach to hijab. They believe that the commandment to maintain modestymust be interpreted with regard to the surrounding society.

In my point ofview, observing Islamic limits in what a woman wears is subject to the issue ofhow religious she is. Does she believe in God and the life after death or not? Islamhas a clear definition, according to Islam men are easily provoked via theireyes I mean what they see
So women must notwear clothes that make the life hard for those men who want to be pious.
But women may saywe are free humans and being free means they can wear what they like. And asfor the issue of men's vulnerability, the women call this an insult toward mensince human beings are granted the privilege of thinking as well as reasoningand enjoying such ability is the most obvious discrimination between man andother animals. So men can use their logic and accept the right of women to wearwhat they like and tolerate the consequences.
Now what do youthink? Which reasoning is right?
