The story of Adam’s two sons; Cain and Abel, or
as we call them in Arabic Qabil and Habil is magnificent.
Two brothers to the same father and mother but had completely different natures.
Habiln had a kind and gentle soul shown in his words and deeds. Actually, for those who know the story, they can not deny that he represented a faithful image of a strong believer.
On the opposite, Cain was a restless soul, violent in his responses and harsh in his words. He envied and hated Habil’s overflowing kindness and goodness because he was full of evil and violence. One can imagine him as a dull distant person whom we would do our best to avoid and to never look at.
I wondered if evil is taught in psychology?
Is it considered a mental problem that need medical consultation?
Actually, I don’t know the answer?
And I also don’t know why evil is spreading like weeds in a sick garden? But, there are still healthy souls in the world. Didn’t we, many of us at least, learn and teach our children the story of Cain and Habil?
Don’t ever be evil like Cain who killed his brother? Cain was a loser
Abel was the winner.
That’s the moral lesson. Or did we forget it?
With all the best wishes,
Nahla
