A Muslim is a person who submits his will to almighty God. As a Muslim we should follow the path that has been given us by Islam. Unfortunately we are getting far from our religion and going towards the Non-Muslims customs. Fresh example of this is lovers day called Valentines day celebrated by the Muslims with great joy in Pakistan. Although we know that this is not an Islamic event but due to the direct influence of media we Muslim celebrated it. Islam does not permit us to do such things. Islam is not against the LOVE,but it gives the lesson of love,peace,independence. But Islam does not permit us to love before marriage. I saw boys and girls giving gifts to each other and i was amazed to see it. Young generation is forgetting the Islamic values and customs.

Another event which has been celebrated in Pakistan for many years is Basant. Now it is banned because of causalities, The thing is that we have no importance of our Islamic events but we are happy to celebrate the Non-Muslims events and festivals.

Our heroes have been changed. We do not know much about Muhammad bin Qasim, Tipu Sultan, Babar Ghauri, Sir syed Ahmad khan and so on but we know all about Shahrukh khan, Salman Khan etc. This is a big tragedy for Pakistani young generation. Parents want their children to look like Bollywood stars but not like any religious personalty. We also create Fun of Dari, These are some reasons for our backwardness.

The reasons behind that is lack of Mothers attention towards their children, lack of knowledge of Islam. Institutions are also not playing their role. In Muhammad Ali Jinnah university where i study, A concert was held in which Amanat Ali, Arif lohar and Annie was to perform, As it is an anti-Islamic activity, Let us consider it good, But University have not celebrated Eid-milad-un-Nabi (S.A.A.W), Students studied what,
we in the university also celebrated Christmas party. These are some problems with today's generation.  Why we are ashamed of ourselves. The non-Muslims want to remove the love of prophet Muhammad PBUH  from our hearts.

We have a wrong definition of success in today's world. We consider wealth a success. but as a Muslim we are to describe success in a different way. In my view a succeeded is one who is offering five prayers a day, Who is much closer to Allah almighty. We are deviated from our destinations. Parents only wants their children to be good in studies, even I don't have exception to it. My parents just asked me about my marks or GPA,but do not ask about the pray.

Teachers are also not playing their roles in grooming of students in an Islamic way, because they have to follow a certain path which is given by the institutions, They have no extra time for some extra discussions. In my personal experience government teachers are far better than the private teachers, There is a proper training for the government teachers but not for the private teachers( may someone can differ to it ) .Another problem is that today student do not respect the teachers, This is the fault of our generation. It is just because we are forgotten our customs. Islam gives more respect to the teachers. Certain examples are present for this. I cannot discuss them.

Things can be changed if we analyze our personalty first and then say something about others.
