*MOST PROBLEMS HAVE PETTY CAUSES*
*"... Allāh being pleased with them and they with Him..."* [Qur'an 5:119]
Unfortunately, trivial matters often cause thousands of people to lose their common sense; families are broken up and friendships destroyed, and people are left confused and broken. Dale Carnegie explains the consequences of being provoked by petty things: *"Petty things in a marriage could drive both partners mad and they are the cause of half of the heartache suffered in this world."*
This is what is confirmed by the experts. After ruling in more than forty thousands cases of divorce, Joseph Sabbath, a Chicago judge, said: *"You will always find that trivial matters are behind the failure of a marriage."*
Frank Hogan, the public prosecutor in New York, stated that half of the cases brought to the criminal court are the result of petty causes, such as an argument between family members, an unintended slight, a hurtful word or an offensive gesture. These insignificant things lead to killing and other crimes.
Very few of us are wicked and hard-hearted by nature, but ongoing blows directed at our pride and dignity are the cause of half the problems in the world.
*"The greatest blessing is goodness in the soul which makes one happy.*
