In the Name of Allah the Compassionate the Merciful
After praising
and thanking Allah (SWT) and seeking His Help and Permission, we take this
opportunity to start writing the articles of “Al Hewaarat” or “The
Interviews”.
Al Hewaarat is simply a group of different ideas, opinions, and views
about what happens around us. They are presented
in a simple manner and in a way that makes it easier for the writer to
understand its meaning, while he enjoys reading and doesn’t feel bored. At the same time, it transfers the reader to
the scene of events itself so that he may understand in close proximity…and the
idea becomes clarified to him…so that he may judge by himself over the
contradicting opinions and struggling ideas…so that he may discover and decide
for himself who is the winner…and on whom does the proof fall on…and who
deserves sarcasm, criticism, rejection…and who deserves respect, acceptance,
and abidance.
By that,
we attempt to clarify some of the dangers (even they are simple) which the
human ship may face in its journey of life.
We desire to shed some light on it so that it becomes apparent, the
minds recognize it, and the eyes see it…after it became concealed and masked,
in the midst of the events and darkness, and in the presence short sightedness
and weak vision.
Al
Hewarat is a
chain of imaginary and illustrative meetings that takes place with individuals,
or non-living things, or animals, or named things…which are all symbolic. A dialogue and interview runs between the
interviewee and the writer, and from these interviews, the ideas and opinions
are displayed and light is shed upon them.
The final judgment over the results of these interviews and discussions
is left for the reader himself. We have
attempted to make the matter interesting, enjoyable, and motivating for the
thought process and an incentive for the reader to participate and consider new
thoughts that are not traditional. In
doing so, he may discover afterwards many more thoughts which deserve to be
considered and pondered over, instead of just seeking materialism and running
after it day and night. Once again, we
seek the help and assistance of Allah (SWT) and we ask Him forgiveness if we
did wrong, and acceptance and content if we did right. And Allah (SWT) is the One who we seek His
pleasure.
