Every era has its unique issues to test its time dwellers.  These issues or crises are called as ?cliff? or ?abyss? of the time in the Qur?an. It seems that value deprivation is the cliff or abyss of our time. Naturally beliefs and creedal doctrines are expected to save human kind from these cliffs or abysses and replace peace, serenity and tranquility instead. But one serious issue remains: how can we bring the vital religio-ethical values together with the young minds. Despite all efforts to accomplish this aspiration, it seems there are some blockade factors that prevent these values to get access to the youth. My paper discusses these questions under the following fundamental frameworks : freedom of the individual within a religion and society in which these both are likely to dictate what is societal to individual; the probability of creating different but common life forms within religious system; total identities versus individual; crisis areas in religious and secular life, etc.
