Each for All, All for Each

English book, p. 256

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

EACH FOR ALL, ALL FOR EACH When two human beings meet, it is the meeting of two beings who should be examples of mercy and blessing for each other. T he system of nature is based on the principle of selfless munificence. In this world everything is of benefit to others at no cost to them. Here duties are carried out without rights being an issue. Here others are given concessions but without any display of one’s own greatness. The sun gives light and heat continuously to the entire world, on an unconditional basis. At all times and in every corner of the world the air supplies the oxygen every moment on which people’s lives depend, but it has never given any bill for it. Water, without which life would have been impossible, is available at a universal level but all this happens without there being any recompense.
