Answer:
Explanation:
In the poem ” About Ben Adhem” the poet Leigh hunt tries to convey the message that one who shows love, compassion and empathy to their fellow beings is the real worshiper of God. One cannot achieve the blessings of the God just by going to the respective holy places.
The poet uses a small boy’s life incident to convey this message. Abou Ben wakes up as a bright light interrupts his sleep. He saw an angel in the corner of his room writing something in a book of gold. Abou enquires the scene. Angel said that he is writing the names of those who loves God. Being a small boy and a true worshipper of God Abou curiously asks whether his name is there in the list or not. He was grieved to know that his name was not in the list but clearly he requests the angel to write his name in the list as someone who loves their fellow beings. This was an excellent display of compassion and love which Abou had for his fellow beings as well as for the God.
The next day Abou again saw the angel and angel showed him the list of the names who were blessed by the God. Abou was so surprised and happy to see that his name was the one leading the list. The theme and the message Leigh hunt wants to convey to the readers is simple and meaningful: “one who respects, loves and shows compassion towards their fellow beings are the ones blessed by the God “.
