As a group of frogs was traveling through the woods, two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs crowded around the pit and saw how deep it was, they told the two frogs that there was no hope left for them. However, the two frogs decided to ignore what the others were saying and they proceeded to try and jump out of the pit. Despite their efforts, the group of frogs at the top of the pit were still saying that they should just give up. That they would never make it out. Eventually, one of the frogs took heed to what the others were saying… Read More

Doubt your heart

30/05/2019sahabatpareNo Comments

There is nothing that doubts and doesn’t calm the soul except the act of sin. Indeed, the person who is righteous in his heart, if he wants to do evil, his soul will doubt and he hates his actions known to others. Basically, humans will feel uneasy, depressed, and anxious when committing sins, even though they justify their actions but finally they will anchor in their hearts. Whereas the heart is central to the good and bad of a human being. And the righteous heart will be guided by righteous religion and knowledge. The Prophet said ” دَعْ مَا يَرِيبُكَ إِلَى مَا لَا يَرِيبُكَ فَإِنَّ الصِّدْقَ طُمَأْنِينَةٌ وَإِنَّ الْكَذِبَ رِيبَةٌ… Read More

The truth

This statement contains the assumption that humans actually have the potential to know the truth independently. Choose between people who say “truth” and the truth itself is important, so that we are not biased in judging something. Not every thing that comes from someone we love or admire is true, and not all that comes from people we really hate is wrong. This is where the independence of thinking as well as the brilliance of a learner are challenged and examined. This also reinforces the popular phrase that exclaims, _”undzur maa qoola wa laa tandzur man qoola”_ The statement also does not mean that learning to teachers is not important.… Read More

Laziness

23/05/2019sahabatpareNo Comments

Islam is a religion that calls for activity and action and fights against laziness and procrastination. Laziness is one of the diseases that Islam abhors and the Prophet of Islam sought Allah’s protection and refuge against. While combating laziness, the first thing to do is to recognize that like all negative habits we have formed, it is a habit that we have acquired through consistent practice. We persist in it because we find comfort and gain pleasure in it. So we cannot be expected to get rid of it entirely unless and until we learn to link this habit with ugliness, pain and suffering rather than glamorizing it. So, list… Read More
