Description
Every father strives to leave his son a legacy that will support him in this life. Some leave behind wealth or property, others knowledge that will benefit others, and still others a will that illuminates the path for their children, a distillation of the father’s life experiences.
Only exceptional individuals like Ahmed Amin leave such a legacy. He was acutely aware of the vast difference between his era and that of his sons. Therefore, he gently advised him, emphasizing that many values and principles remain constant throughout time. Truth, honesty, and justice were his first pieces of advice, and he stressed that adhering to these principles is a virtue.
He also emphasized the importance of religion and its role in society, and criticized the younger generation’s distance from faith. He argued that the relentless pursuit of wealth is a waste of life.
He advised his son to make the most of his studies in Europe and to strive to broaden his horizons.
