Roots are cut, generations become barren
Mufti Muhammad Tasleemuddin Al-Mahmoodi 
“One of the laws of nature is that whenever you cut someone's roots, the fruit on your own trees stops growing.”
This is not just a metaphor of a tree and its roots, but a deep reality of human society. Roots are actually the foundations on which an individual, family, institution or nation stands:
Morality, respect, traditions, relationships, teachers, elders, parents, working classes, and those who have strengthened the system through sacrifices.
When a society insults its elders, loses respect for teachers, considers the working class inferior, or makes fun of the sacrifices of its past, it is actually cutting its own roots. Apparently, there may be a temporary feeling of progress, power or freedom, but it is the law of nature:
A tree with weak roots does not bear fruit for long.
This is the scene in our society today. We complain that:
Young people have become rude
There is no blessing in relationships
Education has become ineffective
Leadership has become incompetent
Society is suffering from distrust
But we do not think about whose roots we have cut ourselves:
We called respect for parents "old-fashioned"
Teachers were considered only salaried employees
Scholars were made controversial
Hard work was considered inferior and shortcuts were called intelligence
Morality was called weakness and rudeness was called freedom of expression
All these are actually ways of collectively cutting our own foundations.
Nature does not punish a nation immediately, but gradually takes away its fruits: morality ends → trust ends
Trust ends → system weakens
System weakens → progress becomes hollow
And eventually the tree remains standing, but the fruit stops growing.
This law is very simple and very strict:
A society that protects its roots makes lasting progress, and a society that cuts its own roots makes noise for a while, but then only remains standing with dry leaves.
That is why true reform does not come from slogans,
But from returning to the roots: respect, morality, knowledge, hard work and truth.
Because the law of nature does not change, it only gives an opportunity to change the character.
Finally, the thing to remember is that
The law of nature does not take revenge, it gives results.
It does not shout that you are wrong,
It silently empties your hands.
When a society is cut off from its roots, first of all
Words become hollow,
Promises become weightless,
And then dreams also slowly start to die.
We think we have gone too far,
But the reality is that we have moved away from our foundations.
And the nations that move away from their foundations,
They do not move forward in history,
They are only seen in the news.
Therefore, the real revolution is not that we change everything,
But it is that we do not change what makes us human:
Respect, gratitude, modesty, knowledge, hard work and truth.
Because the tree that takes care of its roots,
Nature takes care of its fruits itself.
