Usually only the poor people who are infected with infectious diseases and the rich people always safe, but this strange virus equated mankind with many things that afflicted the rich before the poor and the Political before the unemployed and invades the rich and poor countries alike. In countries where women are required to wear the niqab. Today everyone is forced to wear the niqab. It is God's justice for the men to feel the prison that the women live behind that niqab. And it makes the rich feel the value of life paid by the poor because of their greed and love for money and power.

This virus dramatically turned the world upside down. On the one hand, it equated all people and on the other hand, it killed all aspects of life. It appears that it is in its way to eliminate all habits that people have been accustomed to for millennia and cancel all activities and events. This is the first year that people did not celebrate Easter as usual.‫ ‬Perhaps some people communicated with their relatives and friends through social media. The atmosphere was very bleak, I saw only some colorful feathers scattered by the wind everywhere on the street. This year I couldn't celebrate with friends in a family atmosphere. Not only that but it seems that it will eliminate the Ramadan atmosphere as well. There are only a few days left and Ramadan will be a guest of Islamic societies. There is a Ramadan atmosphere that people experience during the month of Ramadan, such as praying together in mosques, exchanging visits between friends and relatives, in addition to exchanging food, shopping at night and other Ramadan customs that make this month a special occasion. . However, it seems that the Covid-19 will change what people are used to for decades. Ramadan will be bleak this year, just as Easter was bleak.‫ ‬People will spend Ramadan locked up in their house, and thus this hidden enemy has succeeded in killing all aspects of life and joy. In addition, if the corona crisis continues, this may be the first year since 1400 years, there will be no pilgrims around the Kaaba.

‬It is clear that, the Covid-19 is clearly changing the customs and traditions of societies and developing a new lifestyle. Coinciding with the recommendations of social isolation and staying at home, people have stopped their usual lives. For example, people stopped shaking hands with each other and inviting each other, and people stopped celebrating at events. People stop doing many things that are part of their human values, customs and cultures. The world has moved on to distance education, accomplishing remote work tasks, even managing meetings via social media. Perhaps this is the next form of the new life. The emergence of this virus is very dangerous not only to the lives of people, but also to human values and may succeed in changing the customs and cultures of societies.‫ ‬The question is whether people will get used to these‫ ‬behaviors. We can never rule that out. For example, and not limited to, there has been a lot of crowding on toilet paper since the beginning of the corona crisis in Western society. However, the eastern community did not witness this crowding on the toilet paper specifically because they use the bidet. In recent times, Amazon stores have seen the largest percentage of sales for a bidet in USA.‫ ‬Will the Americans stop using the bidet after the corona crisis, or will they get used to it and even prefer it on the toilet paper? This is what I want to say, the behaviors we take today, for fear of infection with the Covid-19, will become a lifestyle over time.

This virus imposes on us a new reality that we have not experienced before and that affects in a way and clearly eliminates the remaining human values, and it pushes us to live strangers in a virtual world. That is why I suspect that the Covid-19 is man-made, not only to kill humanity but also to kill human values and all aspects of life. Does this strange virus and the hidden enemy succeed to turn life upside down and eliminating all aspects of life and the rest of our human values?
