You see the level of accountability and morality. Another example is of Khalid Bin Walieed. He was the person who ruined Iranian and Roman empires. Once he gave an award of Dinar 10000 to a poet. Umer (RA) suspended him from the chief of army staff and tied his hands with his turban (Imama) and he was brought in public to proof that he really owns the money. Even he was demoted as a soldier because of spending recklessly his own money. You know what he said? He said I wonât fight any more if I fight for Umer (RA) and I will still fight as a soldier if I fight for ALLAH.

Its quiet some time that i have read these kind of educated assessment. Dear I really appreciate and second your thoughts. At least one can try to change him self and try to impose self accountability.
Just want to add some thing to clarify an impression about Khalid Bin Waleed (RA) the great soldier of Islam. He was demoted because he was generous in spending war booty (Mal-e-Ganimat) among his soldiers and locals who supported his forces and there was also a perception that Muslims cannot win without Khalid bin waleed (RA). Despite the fact that he was demoted he fought with same zeal under Abu Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah (RA) and was instrumental in more victories. In fact Abu Ubaida bin Al Jarrah (RA) trusted him so much that he used to take regular advice from Khalid Bin Waleed (RA). This reflects the commitment to the cause of allah.
These days if some one is demoted he will try to pull the legs of his successor.
Any ways god bless you great khan keep it up
