Superstitions,when we hear of this word our minds flash back to the old school beliefs of: a black cat crossing our way,itching palms,getting bald etcetra as indications of good or bad luck ;existance of monster & dragons :helping fairies & deadly ginies blah di blah blah.
But its fairly amazing to confess that even our modern technological lives are characterised by the similar,if not the same,paranormal influences whose major source n course are our cell phones....
Yes I'm talking about the text messages,not all but the Must-To-Be-Forward ones who themselves compel us to forward them elsewise we will b damned,howsoever...
Before proceeding with and laying their reality bare,lets give an eye to a bunch of such SMSes' extracts...
- ...forward this to so many people,your most important desire will come true in next 24 hours...we love to forward jokes but delete the islamic txts without forwarding them.
- Relating some dream or saying of some Holy Personality they...say forward that to xx number of people if you don't you'll stay unlucky for xx years.
- Some titled as Magic Sms say....this sms can be sent to only xx number of people & not more.Try if you don't believe.
- Othres trying to emotionaly trap the recepients read as....A poor babygirl/boy is suffering from xyz disease...the mobile company is paying Rs. xx to hospital against sending this sms.Contribute by forwarding it.
- ....forward this to xx number of people & you will win free mobile credit worth of Rs. xx forward then check your balance.
-Some which carry unanswerable questions like...whats that which is a grey liquid and on burning turns to a red powder & gains double weight than its liquid state?
Where the heck do they come from?
Who creates them?
Whats their Goddamn pupose?
Well a majority of them,whether mentioned above or not,derive their origin from the Mobile Service Providers themselves.It would be a choking news to the most of you but its the truth.It stands to reason that they create such texts in order to promote their SMS sales.
As the SMS being the cheapest comodity,atleast in Pakistan,cost us even less than just 1 paisa means you can send a hundred of them in 1 Rupee.Thus for sake of urging their customers to send more & more SMSes such texts are created & spread by the telecom companies.
Another category of these,the Must-To-Be-Forward Islamic ones are the products of lacking minds who have probably got some deficiency in: their knowledge regarding Islam,their faiths & their intellects.They would presumably create such texts in hope of earning Sawaab(the eternal reward) & help others increase their Eeman only & only upon the condition that we forward these texts.
While they have no idea that mere forwarding texts without exercising Islam in our lives,has nothing to do with the Eeman,for Islam is a practicing religion its not about merely boasting the Islamic Rules & Beliefs via SMSes.
Bottom Line; Whether its SMS or any stuff that we confront usually with,we should use our brain cells to evalute its rationality,fidelity & actuality.
