MB Chairman: Optimism is the first step towards renaissance
Dr. Mohammed Badie, Chairman of the Muslim Brotherhood, urged the Islamic nation to raise its awareness, build momentum, interact positively, and make every effort to distance itself from negativity and pessimism, emphasizing that the Islamic nation is in need of every effort regardless of what is accomplished
In his weekly message titled "Optimism ensures a future state", Badie stressed that "We must be aware of our responsibility in maintaining a fine reputation avoiding chaotic, random and selfish thoughts. We must purify our soul and conducting ourselves is the most important rule of active participation". He added the significance of realizing that the protection of the nation's interests is the duty and responsibility of all the citizens
He noted that Human Development is the key for reforming the nation and moving it forward. Badie maintained that "We need to be inspired by the people that we have read of in the Quran who have taken leadership and have shown us the way to improve the living conditions for all despite obstacles faced including suppression and tyranny"
Badie ascertained that a country's fall may come about because of internal disorder related to the spirit, wills and morals. However he asserted that Social and political reform is possible provided people have a strong will adding that the Arab and Islamic nations do in fact possess the power to change with prompting
He concluded that plotted schemes, conspiracies and deception would amount to nothing so long as the Muslim nations asserted themselves and ignored pessimism committing themselves to the Islamic teachings fighting to defend it
