"There was an open [telephone] line. No-one was saying anything."
The news is from Texas, USA. Some one contacted the emergency and then said nothing. Most probably after shooting six people in his family the person called the police and shot himself too. That makes it seven dead. People were discovered around Christmas tree and they had opened their gifts. A festivity changed into a calamity.
Pictures from less than a century tell us the stories of famine where whole skeleton like people can be seen in misery. Those were the calamities of that day. Above is a calamity of our times. May Allah(SWT) have Mercy on us all. May He (SWT) guide whom so ever He pleases to the right path.
There will be news analysis of the US event - a thorough dissection of the event and its causes but real cause is Lord Most High and we could do well to ponder as to why He allowed these things to take place. Only then we can figure out as to what we can do.
And the relevance for those who are in India is that we do not follow the same path that leads to such grim consequences.
And may Allah(SWT) send Peace and Blessings on beloved Prophet.
