@SSMJ, I can't agree with you more. Absolutely right. Our youth are the backbone of our religion. I remember an aalim saying once, "We don't need doctors, we don't need engineers..... We need Shia doctors, we need Shia engineers". Meaning, we need to be a servant of Imam of the time in whatever we are doing. Our submission to Allah comes before anything else.

Isn't it about time that we encourage our youth to study subjects and ultimately adapt professions that could facilitate positive change in the society.

I think agha is advising youth and their parents to change their focus and priorities. Traditionally, we have been selecting careers that are regarded as stable and mostly self-serving. It's very important that we start adapting careers and professions based on the needs of Ummah and the society.

Which department should we chose for our carrier
