A Pen becomes a clarion

"Read: And thy lord is the Most Bounteous; Who teacheth by the pen (96:3-4)." Allah has given humankind the most precious and powerful gift Pen. It is the pen through which one could spread the pearls of knowledge and wisdom into the barren land of obliviousness. A murderer cannot be executed without its authority or an evidence for justice cannot be provided without its help. The cog of bureaucracy would jam and the voice of democracy would mute without its inkling. To challenge the tyranny and oppression of the despots and to put to dust the hubris of the emperors are its pluck. Destiny and misery of people could be change only through revolutions, which are not possible without its courage. All the wise and learned of this world are nothing without its company and for them it is the matter of life and death; they would repudiate the luxuries and treasures of life but not the friendship of the pen. Were it not be with the humanity then there would be no difference between an animal and a human being – the vicegerent of Allah. Barbarism and rule of jungle would be the utmost law and the weak would be freely exploited by the powerful. Humanity would know nothing about science and technology, ultimately the existence of life would be in ghettos. Therefore, it is pen that differentiates the humanity from the beasts and it is only the pen from which sprouts the streams of wisdom, justice, honor, love, respect, knowledge, prosperity. And last but not the least is the voice of people which is the soul of democracy. Thus it is rightly said that "a pen becomes a clarion."
