Counter injustice through subtle means

The native tribespeople were not capable of defeating Yajuj and Majuj in battle. Hence, they thought of an alternative plan to counter their power: building a barrier to restrain their movement. In the same way, we can adopt a more subtle approach to counter corruption and oppression today. For example, in the contemporary age, where information has become a powerful tool, we can use the media to create awareness about the oppressed people. A significant requisite, though, is to unite for the cause and work earnestly under a competent and honest leader, such as DhulQarnayn.
