Always
Learning
You know, some people ask 'What is the point of learning stuff?',
but the search is to understand the hows and whys of Creation,
and the Deen is about how and why we do our own things.
Learning is about finding out
what seems to be true,
and what is possible.
To act rightly it is important to know
as much of the truth as is possible,
but there's so much to learn and so little time.
So how can we tell what is useful or good to learn?
One way how is to ask 'why?'.
What is the intention?
Why do you want to know?
Because if your intention is good
you will be rewarded by learning.
Humans work so much better when they are always learning,
so it's important that they learn that it is good for them.
And learning is not such a hard job for them,
they can even learn through playing games.
And with learning
they exchange a world of Boredom
for a world of Excitement
and Wonder.
When they are learning
they are finding ways to explore God's creation
in the worlds outside them
and within themselves.
Looking to the what, how and why of the universe around them,
and trying to understand just who and what they are.
And when they search for knowledge,
along with everything they discover
they find forever more questions to be answered.
So humans can never know all there is to know,
but God knows all that can be known, visible and invisible.
Allah is Al-Alim, the All-Knowing.
We need to understand that when we are searching for knowledge
we are looking to learn from Allah,
the All-Knowing.
as you have been told
along with those
who turn to God with you
and do not go
beyond the limits
surely Hu sees
the things you do
God will not let
the reward
of those who do good
go to waste
the unseen
in the heavens and the earth
all that exists
will return to Hu
so worship Hu
and put your trust in Hu
your Liege
does not ignore
the things you do
apart from Hu
is nothing but names
that you have made up
you
and your family
before you
God has not sent down
any authority to them
judgement belongs
only to God
Hu has commanded
that you do not serve
anyone other than Hu
that is the right Way of Life
but most people
do not know
