Your and Your Parents
Do you ever wonder who you are? How did you come to look, dress, talk and act the way you do? Were you born that way? Did you always know proper manners? Who taught you how to eat and drink and to give thanks to Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala)? Who taught you how to use the bathroom? How about all the duas for traveling, for eating and drinking? Who helped you to learn your Arabic alphabet? Finally, who helped you memorize some suras from the Quran?
Chances are you just
blinked your eyes. While you did it, three people were added to the
world's population. There, you did it again - that's another three people!
It may seem impossible, but that's how quickly the world's population is
growing. It adds up to 184 people every minute, 11,040 every hour, 264,960
every day and 97 million every year! On October 12, the official number of
people on the planet will reach a record 6 billion. Six billion! It is
very difficult to picture a number that humongous.
