Helping to remove social evils
It is not enough that we do not get
involved in social evils. As members
of society, we should also help others
who are involved in such activities.
Some of the things that we can do to
help to remove social evils are:
• Never get into bad habits
ourselves.
• Explain the ill effects of such a gathering to eradicate social evils
bad habits to people who are
involved in them.
• Report to our elders if we see someone with such bad habits.
• Help people to quit these bad habits.
