We
often divide between this world and the hereafter, between the social and
religious life, and the relationship between human beings and the human-God.
Indeed, the two separated but to put together. The Quran requires humans to be
active in going through this world. We recall that the human spirit and body
consists instead, and both must be balanced. The word al-hayaat and al-mamaat
in the Qur'an that the same amount of letters is six, which is repeated 145
times as much.
Prayer
is not important or important work. Is essentially correct, the prayer is done
at the time of prayer and the work done on time worked. The Prophet said:
"Not the best among you are putting hereafter as the world abandoned or
put the world while hereafter abandoned. The best among you are those who
collect both ".
Trying
to control the world, but do not make the world control us. In the case of an
asset to be Apostles: "Will I put the treasure in my hand, not in my
heart". Rasullullah is clear evidence. Rasullullah is the most noble man
in the world and in the hereafter. He was human Kamil, but he grabbed it like
other humans: he is eating, drinking, sleeping, and the family as anyone else.
To
run the world properly, then we have to fear Him. Pious will balance his world
and the Hereafter, equilibrium in the domestic life and public affairs, and so
on. Pious person may also feel the pleasures of the world. In Surat an-Nisa:
134 says that Allah is the reward of this world and in the hereafter as well.
The key we have to understand what the world is, and what how the life style in
the world is allowed and not allowed.
Muslim
attitude to face this world must be positive. As inheritors of the earth he
should not run, but he had to "master" in the sense of organizing and
prosperity in the world. Humans do not lower yourself to the universe, because
God has the glory and superiority of human beings against others. In order to
carry out their duties, then humans must develop science. All science is the
science of God, except the black magic.
Muadh
ibn Jabal from the Prophet SAW said: "Seek knowledge because it indicates
we are afraid of God. Demand that science is a way of worship, while recall is
the rosary, analyze it is jihad, while teaching is a clue in determining which
are kosher and which are unlawful even be a lamp to the road to heaven.
"Science is scared when his friends, companions when alone, even
interlocutor in isolation. He is a hard and happy when his instructions, a
powerful weapon in dealing with the enemy but be ornate and composition at the
time of silence. Allah ennoble society because science so that they become role
models for others, their ideas and thoughts into a role model, always
accompanied angel rubbed them with gentleness and wings pray for them. Each
leaf twigs and ripples sea participate memintakan forgiveness for them, as well
as all the animals on land and at sea. Science of the soul turn deadly
ignorance, illuminating us from the darkness, so that everyone will achieve the
position and a high degree of noble in the world and in the hereafter. *****
