The only obstacle to this road to riches lay in the six hundred odd students who wouldn’t give up their school. A vicious campaign was started to remove the obstacle.
Children of any parent who objected to the high handed transaction were forced out on one pretext or another. Parents who could afford other schools started leaving one by one, until only about three hundred and fifty remained. These hardy students wouldn’t leave the school. Their parents couldn’t afford the fees of the rich chain that was to replace their cherished school.
One fine morning, the remaining three hundred and fifty students were given a parting gift and asked to leave the school and return no more.
Some of the students were courageous enough to ask the woman handing out the gifts if there was any way they could be allowed to carry on their education in the new school that was to replace their humble Sir Adamjee School. The reported answer, learned through interviews with the former students depicts the whole sordid affair with more clarity than all the articles, appeals, petitions and court cases put together. The lady said:
“You can’t continue here. The children coming here will be of a different class and you will be embarrassed sitting next to them! [Mercifully, she managed to confuse who feels embarrassed to sit with whom.]
The angels will rejoice and express felicitations to each other, for what Allah will bless this Ummah, upon breaking the fast. (The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings upon him, his Family)

The Prophet, peace be upon him and his Family, said: “Every year,
when the month of Ramadhan enters, the Garden arrays itself
ornately and beautifies itself.
So when the first night of that month falls, a gentle wind blows from
under the Throne, called al-Mutheerah; and the leaves of the
heavenly trees flap and the door shutters clank, to produce a
melodious tune, the like of which the hearers have never heard.
(as narrated in Al-Amali ch. 27, h. 3)

What afflicts humanity today is certainly not compatible with human dignity; the Almighty has not created human beings so that they could transgress against others and oppress them.
By causing war and conflict, some are fast expanding their domination, accumulating greater wealth and usurping all the resources, while others endure the resulting poverty, suffering and misery.
The fundamental question is that under such conditions, where should the oppressed seek justice? Who, or what organization defends the rights of the oppressed, and suppresses acts of aggression and oppression? Where is the seat of global justice?
