Islamic Thinking

A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.

The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter:

Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don’t fall into the river. The
little girl said:

No, Dad. You hold my hand.

What’s the difference? Asked the puzzled father.

There’s a big difference, replied the little girl.

If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let

your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.

Sometimes wisdom can be learnt from the smallest of children.

Your parents are a gift for you, cherish them.
