Written by Nida Fazli, this thought-provoking chapter laments the loss of empathy and the growing selfishness in human society. The title translates to ‘Where are those now who feel pain at the grief of others?’. The author begins with the story of Solomon (Suleiman), who stopped his army to let ants pass, and the incident of the poet’s own mother, who respected every living creature.The narrative contrasts these past examples of compassion with modern urban life, where builders push back the sea and cut down forests to build concrete jungles, leaving birds and animals homeless. Fazli vividly describes the retaliation of nature, citing storms and floods as nature’s way of venting anger. He shares a personal anecdote where his wife chases away pigeons, symbolizing how we have closed our doors to nature.The chapter is a strong environmental and moral critique. It urges students to realize that the earth does not belong to humans alone but is shared by all species. It calls for a return to a more sensitive, inclusive way of living where humans coexist harmoniously with nature, rather than dominating it.
