Only honest people deserve honest leader

Is has been revealed by our religion that people who go astray or do heinous acts do not deserve honest leader. Instead of getting a true leadership, the most mean and impious people will be imposed on that society in the form of leaders.
Now if we look around in our society and our leaders, both are seemed to have stemmed from the same mentality. This mentality of majority of people keeps them busy in devising plans to gain personal benefits in all possible means. Moral obligations hold
no importance for these people who belong to every class of the society.
People always blame that the rulers are busy in corruption and other illegal acts, but never pay heed to their own deeds. Even a clerk in secretariat never misses a chance to get bribery, no matter whether it is just 50 rupees. Same is the case with the
staff in the police department.
In our society, people are afraid of going into police station in order to register a report, as they know that they have to bribe the police officials for taking the right action. These police officials are just like other people in the society, then why
a layman is afraid of police. The reason is that the moral bankruptcy of police has reached to its climax and they think that taking bribery is their right.
A milkman never forgets to mix water, at times dirty water, in his milk to increase its weight. For getting a driving licence, people have to give extra money to the agents as without it they will have to visit the office for numerous times. Same is the
situation in the passport office where agents charge extra money to save you from standing in the row.
Every class of the society has become corrupt as people do not let any chance go to earn some personal benefits by all means whether fair of foul. The morality has become a characteristic of our forefathers. Here those people are successful who are clever
and know how to create opportunities for gaining their material benefits.
When all of us are corrupt in one way or the other, then we do not have the right to blame only on our leaders because they are just like us. We do not deserve true leader because only honest people deserve honest leader. We have still time, as it is never
late, to review our priorities and privileges of life and refine ourselves, which is the only way to get mercy of Allah and an honest leader.
