You're not going to find it within your heart, the motivation to do anything about it, because you've mismanaged, you've mismanaged this capacity that Allah gave you and it's atrophied. It's now gotten to the point where you've fallen into a vise and that vices is lack of anger and lack of
caring and therefore lack of justice.
