Have you ever wondered why you work so hard yet are unable to make gains despite your efforts? What has occured is a result of basic politics: your work did not influence the people who have power to give you the gains that you desire. You might think it to be unfair, however you are dealing with human beings. And human beings are selfish.
Then what would it take to influence these people? Let's look upon this from their perspective. They have their own family and friends that they interact with on a regular basis, and usually the family takes precedence in all business affairs. This results in a organization that runs the "family business" in a manner that serves the best interests of the family. Does this sounds like gangsterism? Of course! You will discover that even at the lowest level, most gangs are made of family members. As the circle of power and influence gets larger, the same basic principle applies. The family exerts its control over a multitude of "other people". But what to do? Even Allah commands that we take care of our parents and family. But Allah does not command us to do evil, and create mischief and destruction!
Turn away from the ignorant, Julia. Hold to forgiveness, and command what is right. Seek refuge with Allah when thoughts of evil cross your mind, and maintain your prayers. I am your family now, Julia. So let us come together, and I will love you. I am the one who loves you.
