ERAZ
إيراز
ERAZ, which is an Arabic word that means
“to cling and hang onto the origins of the land and homeland."
“ and a human’s creation started with mud”
the Holy Qur'an
This land in which we live in is filled with many things that are varied in nature and shapes, some of which are similar and different, and all are created by the Lord the creative in His masterpieces.
God has bestowed humans with qualities which differ from any other creature and most dignified of all is for our father Adam to be created from dirt.
Adam was made out of elements and components that reacted with each other, and was molded together to create a new entity called “human”.
This new creature is surrounded by different terrain which he is oblivious to. This terrain with all its diversity constitutes nature.
A man is born and raised within nature; he searches, wanders and walks through its corners, creating a relationship with it. This relationship constitutes “chemistry” between him and nature, which bypasses any immoral behaviors and exploitation. It’s a relationship of amiability, giving and belonging. It gives him the basic needs to survive, and he, in return, works to maintain this valuable blessing.
A human lives with nature’s phenomena, variation and inconsistency by being immovable and insistent, as if it was an inseparable part of his life. Nature alone, with no humans, cannot be preserved, and a human with no breather is delusional.
