Tolerance is the Strength of Society (Speech)

Honorable Mr. President and Respected Audience!

Tolerance is open-mindedness,
Tolerance is lenience
Tolerance is acceptance
Tolerance is patience
Tolerance is easiness
Tolerance is broad-mindedness

In short, Tolerance or toleration is the practice of permitting a thing of which one disapproves, such as social, ethnic, sexual, or religious practices. We see in our common life that people do not tolerate often in most of the very small and little things. A Society in which the tolerance level of people is low could never survival at all, could never live a long life, and could never enjoy the joys and beauties of their culture.

Dear Mr. President!

What is a society? It’s made of people, inhabitants, populace of a territory. It’s a house like thing in which people live together. Talk to each other on daily basis, face to each other on daily basis, treat to each other on daily basis, thus they become a community instead of crowd of masses. They tolerate each other, they listen to each other, and they communicate to each other.

Tolerance is the strength of society
It’s a measurement of truth and piety
Let’s tolerate each other, don’t be harsh
Let’s obey the God and peace of deity

Honorable audience!

A nation is like a river in which in which all streams flow in such a sequence which is the ideal one for a human society. That’s why Allama Iqbal says in his verse,

A person is stable with his society
Otherwise he is nothing
Like a wave is in the stream and out of the stream it’s nothing.

Dear Mr. President!

Tolerance is the strength because if we don’t have the spirit of tolerance or toleration how can we survive in place where we are connected to each other?

Mostly it depends upon the system in which we are just surviving at the moment. How we have coded it. Do we have some constant foundation in our system? What is that which we follow? Do we have religious extremism in our constitution? Do we have sufficient laws and legislation at all? Do we have everything we need? How can make up our people to tolerate each other? What we have given to them for tolerance? How we brought them up? Isn’t that we taught them the religious extremism. What is the level of vex on sex in our society. How people deal each other for the matters of love marriage or inter gender friendship?

My dear audience I am trying to prove that the tolerance in society is like bake bone of the civilization and culture. Humans are not so different in many of rational and natural matters. They also have malice and jealousy for each other like dogs and wolf.

Almost in Sufism most of the theories describe the animal spirit that’s call Rooh e Haiwani. . . . . it’s animal spirit. People have their own spirits. Some of them are like swarms they earn, collect and stock but don’t give their victuals to others, some of them are like droves they cannot help their social brothers ever, some of them are like gangs, they want to kill every time just for their lust and hunger.

Dear Mr. President!

At the end I would like to say the patience that make the society and run it for the rest of the history.

Thanks a lot
