A stone fell on a fox's tail, and the tail got cut off. When another fox saw him, he asked, "Why did you cut your tail?" The tailless fox replied, "It brings great happiness and joy. It feels as if I am flying in the air. Wow!! What fun it is!" By coaxing and persuading, he finally convinced the second fox to cut his tail. When the second fox accomplished this mission of cutting his tail, instead of peace, he felt severe pain!! He asked, "My friend!! Why did you lie to me?" The first one replied, "What happened, happened! Now, if I tell this story of pain to other foxes, they won't get their tails cut off, and the two of us will remain the butt of jokes!" Understanding the point, both of these tailless foxes kept telling the entire community to try this joyful experience. The result was that the majority of the foxes became tailless. Now the situation became such that wherever a fox with a tail was seen, he would be mocked! Whenever corruption and mischief become widespread, the public starts taunting the righteous people for their righteousness, and foolish people mock them. It is narrated from Hazrat Ka'b that he said, "A time will come upon the people when a believer will be shamed for his faith just as a wrongdoer is shamed for his wrongdoing nowadays. To the extent that a man will be told sarcastically, 'Wow brother! You are a very honest and jurist person!!'" When a spoiled society cannot find anything objectionable in the righteous people, it starts shaming them for their best virtue! Didn't the nation of Lut (peace be upon him) say, "Drive out the family of Lut from your town!! They pose to be very pure/righteous people." This is the reality of our society in which we live.
