Kuwaitis: A Legacy of Kindness & Goodness
In a time when events accelerate, positions overlap, and narratives diverge, a person often finds themselves facing hidden anxiety. If left unchecked, this anxiety quickly transforms into a disruptive state that unsettles the heart, shakes convictions, and burdens the mind with unstable expectations.
Disorder is nothing but the loss of tranquility. When vision
becomes clouded, questions multiply, doubts crowd in, and the balance by which
one judges matters disappears.
The Value of Certainty
Here emerges the value of certainty—not as mere information to
memorize, but as a lived force. Certainty is decisive knowledge that dispels
doubt, quiets suspicion, and transforms into inner stability unshaken by
changing circumstances.
Certainty is not an escape from reality nor ignorance of
dangers. It is the deepest form of awareness and the strongest expression of
trust: a transition from fear to surrender, and from surrender to conscious
action.
This certainty rests on a fundamental principle: that
everything in this universe—despite its complexity—is governed by divine
wisdom. Nothing escapes it. From this springs serenity that does not cancel
caution but prevents collapse.
Faith as a Source of Balance
When the supports upon which a person relies—wealth,
relationships, or even self-confidence—are shaken, faith-based certainty
emerges as a solid foundation. It restores balance and drives initiative rather
than retreat.
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Acts of
goodness protect against evil ends, calamities, and destruction. The people of
goodness in this world are the people of goodness in the Hereafter.”
This is not merely an ethical recommendation but a continuing
divine law. Goodness is a reserve stored for hardships and a cause that repels
affliction.
Kuwait: A Nation of Goodness
Looking at Kuwait, we find that goodness here is not
incidental but a deeply rooted identity. Before oil and after it, Kuwait has
been a land of generosity and benevolence, offered without expectation of
reward or thanks.
It is no coincidence, in light of these divine laws, that this
country has witnessed moments of preservation and support beyond calculations,
as during the invasion crisis.
From Fear to Directed Certainty
Recalling these meanings does not invite relaxation but
correction of direction: from scattered fear to guided certainty, from reaction
to conscious action embodied in repentance, reform, strengthening cohesion and
national unity, rallying around leadership, and adhering to instructions.
Let us renew our covenant with God, and let us remain—as we
have always been—people of generosity in times of ease and people of
steadfastness in times of hardship.
May God protect Kuwait, its people, and its leadership, and make it a land of security and unending goodness.
