A Wider Perspective on Life....

warwick lake
hello ! how was your day? Good? Nice to hear if yes :)

Anyway, beneath it all, we always look at things at a different perspective. As to how we perceive things. How we take into account of other 'things'. Having a wider perspective can never be bad. Having a wider perspective creates more attention and makes us steadfast. 

Living in a world of conflict and conviction, we tend to realise that things happen for a reason. Or reasons for many. Allah swt has made the Qada' and Qadar written for us ever since life was created. 

What i'm trying to say here is that, we as humans tend to lose our minds when it comes to positive thinking. I'd like to include myself in that one too if i may ;) . Perhaps, we should understand that, there's always a reason behind something. Whether good or the other. 

We have to understand that, when something happens, our maturity takes control of us. If, to say that you are mature enough to handle the situation, you'll most likely brainstorm on how to get rid or resolve a certain issue step by step. By stages. Development. To have a calm mind in a heretic situation would be most wise i reckon. 

Faith in understanding would more likely give support towards your reasoning. So, i'd suggest, the next time you want to raise that hand of yours, or even your voice, i'd suggest you to sit down. Drink a cup of tea. And... well.. resolve it step by step.

The word for this whole jumble would be : Patience. Sabr in arabic. Sabar in Bahasa Melayu. We tend to lose our minds when patience steps out of our hearts. We should always practice patience in everything for it is of all a part of faith. Like the famous malay quote " Sabar itu separuh daripada Iman".

A verse from the Quran :

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

'O ye who believe! Take not for intimates others than your own folk, who would spare no pains to ruin you; they love to hamper you. Hatred is revealed by (the utterance) their mouths, but that which their breasts hide is greater. We have made plain for you the revelations if ye will understand.

(Al- Imran 118)

The above surah from Surah Al-Imran explains that Allah has made clear that, we have to be careful in our day to day talk. We ought not to speak of evil of people. :) That goes to me too hehe.
