Asalaamualaykum, how are you all doing?
I look at our situation, we are surrounded by enemies on pretty much the vast majority of our border. Even if it was just a problem on the Indian border, we are still looking at a dire situation. They have a massive nation,which is basically continent, they outnumber us something like 7:1. Their economy is about 10 times bigger and they spend way more on their military too. This should be a cause for concern but I don't see people treating it as a concern in real life. I haven't been to Pakistan in quite a while but the last time I was there, the markets were full of our enemy's merchandise (bollywood) & whilst I saw strong spirit, I don't think they were ready for a fight or war at any given time.
I think we need to push sports like wrestling in our society. It produces strong men, men who know how to fight. Also sports involving guns. Whilst I don't want to give guns to everyone lol, I do think people should know how to use one and there should be competitions/designated places where people can practice.
What is the advice of the Prophet (pbuh) about swimming, archery, horse riding, etc.? | Questions on Islam I strongly suggest reading this article about the Prophet (pbuh) encouraged. I was trying to find hadith but I found this great article instead.
I look at places like Dagestan and why Muslims there have such a combat culture. They know the danger they are in, they are ready for war, both physically & mentally. Yet I don't see pakistanis showing the same sense even though we in a similar situation where war could break out. I have been negligent in this regard too. Many other Muslim nations have also been negligent and they have paid the price.
