Improvement of the last post

Dear friend,

Improvement a bit of the last one:

Sometimes it cross my mind, is it true that the non Malays are more interested in voluntary works compared to the Malays? Is is not the Malays were raised with a noble culture and holy Islamic values that forbid selfishness? Is it not The Prophet teaches us the Malays and Muslims to love each other like we love ourself?

The culture of the Malays itself is so famous in what we call as respecting each other, helping one another and respecting the neighbour. When they are having the wedding ceremony or when someone is dead, they work closely together for the success of the ceremony and bury the dead. The same thing happen when they are in the field planting the crops.

Is it because most of the Malays do not intrested in joining a club or association so we consider them do not interested in doing voluntary works? At the same time, only by being active in certain associations, can we say that the non Malays are more better in aspect of contribution to the society?

Social works usually begin at home and within the family. The Malays are known to have good and tight family ties. For example, it is relatively rare for the Malays to send their parents to the charity home even though they live in despair?

In general, religious appreciation among the Malays are more profound compared to other ethnic. Islam motivates its believer to take care of the old, neighbours and friends, even among other Muslims worldwide. The Prophet sayings urged the Muslim not only to help others from the same race but also others from different religion. He also urged the Muslims to help animals.
