It is stated in ‘Jaysi Kerni Waysi Bherni’ (i.e. As you sow so shall you reap) a very beautiful book consisting of many parables: Two real sisters decided to marry their children with each other. The girl had a poor vision due to which she used to wear glasses. After some time, a discord surfaced between both the sisters to such an extent that one sister said to the other one, ‘I cannot marry my faultless son to your blind daughter. Having heard this other sister felt a massive shock because the one who found fault with her daughter was not anyone else but her real sister. Anyhow her sister had gone after breaking off the relationship.

On the other hand, when she reached home, she thought to shift the iron pipes to the roof which were kept lying downstairs. She also included her son in this work. Suddenly an iron pipe slipped from her hand and hit straightaway the eye of her son and his eye came out with its eyelid from its socket. She was absolutely stunned and the words she uttered to her real sister started resonating through her ears, ‘I cannot marry my faultless son to your blind daughter.’ Now she started feeling ashamed of her manner but there was no gain as her son had lost his eye. (Jaysi Kerni Waysi Bherni, pp. 47 - 48)

Dear Islamic sisters! Have you heard! On the basis of unimportant things the people, who break relations with their relatives, bring disgrace upon them and commit the sin of hurting their feelings without any reason, face great disgrace and humiliation. Alas! Nowadays in our society, kinship has become very delicate and sensitive like a fragile thread. Due to the persistence of egotism relatives have become bitter enemies of one another; engagements are broken due to minor issues; everyone wants to meet rich relatives, but there is no one to ask poor relatives; children do not talk to their parents; love between brothers is dying; discord is surfacing between real sisters; real brothers and sisters greatly hate one another. Our Lord has commanded us to treat our relatives well.
