My Religion

Hello All

This 'hello' is to all those who might subscribe to my blog, in the future. Anyway, I'll write what I feel like to write now. So, I am feeling like to write what I feel in my heart; which is my belief in Almighty God.

I've realized that when we live far away from our people, when we have much time at out disposal and we don't find anything to do; then we realize the importance of our people. I miss all of them back home; eventhough when we go back we might start taking them for granted again but that's the human nature.

So, My point is that Human nature is a bit shaky in its essence i.e. by default it tends to go astray. Well, when you see a pretty girl walking by you know how hard it is not to see her; you know what I am talking about. So, we all know the limitation of our Nature (Soul, Nafs etc.).

The point is then that how do we keep it under checks or what is the best way to do this ?
And this where we feel the importance of 'Divine Guidance'; which is practically a SOP, Manual or simply guidance for humans to go about living a good life.

Now, another issue which are raised by many people at conscious and sub-consious level, which is 'Why do we need so many rules to Live?. Well, the simple answer is to look around us. We Humans can not live without Rules. Just think when you step out of your house and until the time you come back home, you are literally following Rules; from driving, working in office, anything and in some cases you have 'Home Rules' too !

Therefore, it is even more important to have rules for our lives when we have rules for petty things all around us. So, I presume one thing is clear that ... 'We need Rules to lead a good life'. Then, the next question is what are the best rules for us to lead a good life. The answer to this question can be gauged by an analogy. For example, if we see in market for any product we have what we call 'Manual' given with it by the Manufacturer of that product; so similarly we need a 'Manual' for ourselves from our Manufacturer, who we all know is God Almighty. And, it is only our creator who knows us inside-out; so it is incumbent upon us to follow this guidance for our betterment.

The drive to follow these rules come from some basic FACTS which we must realize. These are:

1) We are created for the TEST; which is to follow the guidance of God despite having the Freewill that enable us not to follow. Well, that's what make it a test, or if we had no free-will then it was just pre-programmed engagement.
2) This world is a PASSING phase; a journey to an end, which is the Paradise. Because, this world is not perfect and we all can see that, so it is clear evidence that perfect life is after this short span of existence on this Earth.
3) We have to return to our Lord; who will judge us on the day of Judgement for our Good and Bad deeds in this world. This is also logical because what will happen to those people who escaped the punishment in this life; they will face it for sure on the day of Judgement.
4) DEATH will come for sure. And for Believers it is a Good News and for non-believers a Bad one.

I hope to write more in my next blog.

Many thanks for reading.
