#QuoteoftheWeek | Mawlana Hazar Imam in Damascus, Syria, 27 August 2008

“Sometimes the #Jamat in the past months have said to me, ‘Hazar Imam, why do you make these jokes?’ And I say, ‘why shouldn’t I make jokes?’ A Darbar is a moment of #happiness. And I remind them, in Islam, happiness is a #blessing. It is a blessing from Allah. And, therefore, if you have smiles and you have happy children and you have friends, and you enjoy the qualities of life, this is also a reason to be thankful for the blessing from Allah.”
