Lead by Example

Almost all of us at one time or another looked down upon someone. We can easily pin point many things wrongs with others, but we don't manage to see our own faults. It is important before pointing fingers at someone else we recognize we are not perfect either. Instead of wasting time recognizing what's wrong with someone else we should fix ourselves. No one takes criticism from someone who makes the same mistakes, therefore it is best to set an example. One should lead by example and practice what you preach. Just as U.S. keeps telling other countries to not produce nuclear weapons, as long as America does not stop producing and getting rid of their own nuclear weapons no other nation is going to follow them. A common example everyone can relate to is parents telling their children to do this and that but they themselves do not do the same. If the parents do not pray five times, but ask their children to pray, children will very unlikely pray as well. Parents need to set good examples first so that children are great Muslims and citizens of this world. If each parents were to think like this we can easily change the world.
