Rukhsana Hashem

Every prophet, sage, and scripture warned us about the same hidden enemy: the ego. It hides behind piety, fuels pride, blinds us to truth, and even rejects God’s chosen guides. From Jesus to Muhammad to Krishna, the message is clear—conquer the self or be conquered by it.

The AROPL community in England draws on ancient religious traditions of communal living, urging members to reject materialism and build a just, spiritual society rooted in shared values.

One of the most painful experiences in human life is betrayal. And perhaps the most painful form of betrayal is not from strangers or open enemies, but from close ones, family, companions, and those who once claimed loyalty. In the divine history of prophets and reformers, this type of betrayal is not just common; it is a recurring theme. In fact, it is a divine pattern, a Sunnah of God in the way He tests His chosen ones.
