Ecstasy
is an intrinsic requirement and natural necessity. Islam does not advocate for
putting an end on the charm of the national character by artificial prestige,
superficial graveness, dynamism and depression. on the contrary, Islam urges
Muslims to keep their prestige high with prowess, fortitude composure and new
vivacity to boost their morale.
When
an individual of the nation attains distinction in any branch of knowledge and
learning, or when a friend or relative repatriates, or when a friend visits
your House, or when you have a marriage or birth ceremony, or some relative has
regained his health, or when you receive a harbinger of Muslim victory, or when
you celebrate some festival, you should fully enjoy such occasions. Islam not
only allows to celebrate the happy occasions but it also considers it as pro
religious.
Ayesha
Siddiqah narrates that it was the festival Day and some girls were singing in
her house. Meanwhile Hazrat Abu Bakr arrived and disgruntled to hear the song
and strongly objected to it. The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) pacified him saying: O Abu Bakr: every nation has a festival day
and it is ours.
Once
some Negroes were playing some acrobatics on a festival day. Our Prophet
(P.B.U.H.) not only observed these acrobatics, but also activated Hazrat Ayesha
to observe the same. He (P.B.U.H.) also hailed the acrobats for their excellent
performance.
To
exhilarate oneself and others is a moral duty of a Muslim, and he is supposed
to take the utmost care for the Islamic and spiritual taste and other's dignity
even in the festive raptures. When he is gladdened, he renders profound
gratitude to that man who gladdened him. Even when he is overexcited by some
happy happening, he does not adopt an attitude, contravening the teachings of
the Prophet (P.B.U.H.) and strictly adheres to the war of equanimity. He is not
so outburst due to piety that may indicate his pride and vanity and may supress
his submissive and obsequious sentiments.

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe". And this is probably during 15th century of Lunar calendar.
