Unforgettable pages in the world of books
Learn from the cradle to the grave. Humanity is interested in learning and reading books. This is one of the first books on earth. “Avesta” is a book. This book is one of the sacred books of the Zoroastrian religion. The book describes the history of the 3rd–7th centuries BC.
There is a lot of information about the way of life and the financial situation of the countries. 4/1 of the Avesta has reached us. According to the hadiths, reading books is both a duty and a debt. Reading helps to generate new and unique ideas. Reading encourages us to think. Sometimes our dreams also depend on the happy books we read. Also, reading enriches our outlook and leads us to wisdom. The more books a person reads, the more his intelligence and ability to think deeply grow. In addition, inflection increases our vocabulary. According to studies, it has been proven that the vocabulary of people who read a lot of books is much more fluent than others. It’s easy to single out people who read a lot or the opposite.
“Imam’s Mannequin Girl,” is a work written by the famous Turkish writer Amina Şenlikoğlu. This is one of the best work that clearly shows the importance of being educated in order for women to find their place in society and not to remain spiritually backward. The book is about the life path of Imam Yakub and Gulkhanim’s manly but very intelligent daughter, Fatima. Fatima was fed up with the shortcomings of her family, the simple way of life, and the gossip of the daughter of an imam should be like that and the daughter of an imam should not do such things. In addition, the work talks about the changing nature of the youth of the entire society today, leaving Islam and plunging into another current, namely “Materialism.” Fatima also seemed to get involved in this current. Since he was young, his father brought him various books, so he read so much that he even memorised the Qur’an. He thought these books were useless. But it was these books that saved him from entering this stream.
True, he made a mistake, but he realised his mistake and returned to Islam, and at the same time, he became an example to his friends who had strayed from the right path and caused them to return to the path of guidance. He thought, “Either I have to return to God, or I have to leave God completely.” But in his blood flowed the blood of a real, pure Islamic man. That is why he could not turn away from Allah. I think people of all ages should read the book. I think that it is a work that reminds people of their faith once again. In addition, the works and novels of another Russian writer, Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, cannot fail to attract one’s attention. Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy is one of the most famous Russian writers and thinkers, one of the greatest novelists in the world. Educator, publicist, religious thinker. One of his most famous novels is Anna Karenina. This work has a special place in my heart.The essence of the book “Anna Karenina” is to show the living and vivid history of different types of people: Alexey Vronsky – “golden youth”, Stiva Oblonsky – “lover of an idle life”, Doli Oblonskaya – “victim”, Konstantin Levin – “Russian idealist” ”, who takes an active part in people’s life, Alexey Karenin – “the mighty of this world”, etc. The author of the book “Anna Karenina” was able to create a novel from modern life, where good and evil, chaos and order reign. Lev Tolstoy did a great job of studying and developing the human soul, which is why the novel is relevant in any era. I think I only now understand why Tolstoy is so loved and respected! To describe in such detail the internal unrest of completely different people, to go through such a wide range of psychotypes is not very easy, for this you need to live one life with each of them. Tolstoy succeeded, and together with him we succeed too. I believe that it will be interesting for anyone to read and enjoy this book.
To sum up, reading books is not only for us young people but also for our parents, sisters, brothers, young and old. Therefore, let’s increase our love for the book since it is a close companion and friend to each and every person in the world.
