M.Azim Ulfati’s congratulation message on the occasion of international woman’s day

With great pleasure, I congratulate 8th of March, the International auspicious women’s day to all women and esteemed mothers and wish their further success from Almighty God in nurturing good and useful children.

Woman is the source and manifestation of love and affection.
Today all the developments and progresses of mankind and flame of civilization which is illuminated all over the world are from bless of this gentle gender.
It is gentle gender that in her kind lap, the elder men are nurtured and trained.

Today we fell that Afghanistan has put step to the highways of education and has started a new life.
It is for all the women, especially to the Afghan women to know their responsibilities in the light of knowledge for their society and should not be a useless and passive essence.
They should use the chance and learn knowledge and illuminate their life and their environment from bless of it. The women have very heavy duty.

So that is necessary for woman, to understand those responsibilities that has to Almighty God, family and society and for fulfilling her duties and natural difficulties in this world, she should tie the lap of ambition and attempts in her waist.

Today we are lucky and proud to celebrate the international woman day in Afghanistan.

I wish the celebration of this day should not be only by words rather it should be celebrated by a good method to bring some changes in the life of women and to end some problems of women in Afghanistan and some sensitive information should be stated for the future life of Afghan women.

Once again I wish the physical and spiritual life of honorable women to become better than now, the life of those women who are basically committed for education and improving of families in the society.
I heartily congratulate the celebration of International women’s day.
I wish from the great God their success in submitting good children for the people of the world specially Afghanistan.

What is life?

Life is like vast sea, unknown, mysterious, and with many meanings, what ever we search about that, it is less. It is blessed to move, and think a little bit about what life is and how to live?

We must know that life is beautiful, love, affection is beautiful, wisdom, truth and idealism is beautiful.

Life is love, affection, wisdom and truth.
Life has physical and spiritual dimensions.

In human's life , hopes , willing , shortcomings , knots and traditions that belongs either to the past or future, they are the major barriers ,that either take us to drunk and neglect sleep or to the real life , which is love , affection , wisdom and truth.

The physical dimension has negative and positive course, if we use from physical dimension to positive course, we are going to be successful in our life.
The pleasure of life is originally in love, affection, wisdom and truth.
We understand it when we move to positive course and do what ever the great God has ordered and to settle love in our body , and we enjoy from it when we get to the real love of God and as well as to the truth.
When we got to the truth, then we find the real joy of life and we join to the real life that there is no sorrow, toil and hardship.

If we move to negative direction and disobey from the orders of God ,then we become follower of devil ,then neither we will understand the meaning of life nor love , affection , wisdom and truth, finally life would mean vanity , game , and all vain.

Oh, pity, people! Every thing in this world is transitive and worthless, what ever is important in this world; it is you, your essence. The essence that can be immortal with love, affection, wisdom and truth.

Pure love, affection, sense, purity of your self is beautiful. All favors and pure senses are hidden in your self. We must search that, every thing is in our selves but our attention and hopes are in out. Let's search to develop and improve our self. All the beauty of life and its pleasures must not drunk us , we must think with our selves and start from our selves, it is never late , we must create and we must define life based on the orders of Almighty God.

Life is a gift and test. It is some times up, some times down , some times hard , some times soft , some times in happiness and some times in sorrow.
Among all those, we must not forget to start life from now , and care for getting to the climax until we don't slip with the neglect stones and we must move with holding the positive handle that finally lead us to success of the world and immortal life and world.

Dear friends, lets think our self soil , before we die from this mortal world and now live such that we never die , we must control our life in a way in which death would never catch us lazy. It is possible only when we do good work according to the orders of Allah in each and every remaining night and day and count all our actions and behaviors, which is acceptable for all human.
We should conceive life like this: There is no confident in each and every moment that comes and passes.
There is no confident in each breath that respires up and down, we believe that death is right but no one knows that when will death come to us. it may come to us in one of these moments by the order of God, maybe God will give us death, We must not forget to think about development of life like this, as the universe is survived we are survived too, never give up from progress and building and good work .
I hope good life and eternal life for all the people.
