The status of religion in society rises to the extent that the morals of its adherents rise. Morals are common. We worship our Lord with it, and through it we establish strong relations with humanity in every place and time, and the message of Islam focuses on the healthy human relationship, as it is the greatest factor for achieving cooperation in righteousness and piety.
It is not God's supreme purpose in sending down the Qur'an; Monotheism only, on the majesty of his destiny, and his purpose in sending the Chosen One, peace and blessings be upon him, is not to worship God with prayer, fasting, zakat, and pilgrimage, despite their importance, but rather the secret of the greatness of religion, the spiritual sublimity that results from worship that nourishes us with moral energy, so that our worship becomes what it is of humiliation. elevation) provides us with harmony with all that surrounds us, including the environment, spheres, and neighborhoods.
I imagine that from typecasting; Stuffing the Muslim and immersing him in the ocean of worship, and depriving him of contemplation, contemplation, and contemplation on the purpose of worship, and the purposes of legislation, represented in (literature) and refinement; Polite behavior predicts polite belief and receptive worship.
We are not angels, and we are not demons. We are human beings from the clay God planted in us the ability to rise to angelic status. It is manifested in such fertile seasons, as it has made us inclined to demonization that persists if we let go of its mind, expand its field, and overcome the fortune of the body over the fortune of the soul.
In the Holy Qur’an, God addressed His creation (the children of Adam), and Adam was created from the epithelium of the earth, meaning: (its skin) or its outer shell, or its perimum, meaning (its soil), and dirt is weak, and quickly softens if some water is poured on it, or clouds of mercy rain on it, and in countries The Levant say as a way of praising a visitor or a guest (a human being) is evidence that the human being is against the Bhaimiyya, which drives its owner to roaming around with an insatiable instinct (eating, drinking and lust).
We described the Almighty as human beings, and the skin is what appeared from the thing, Imam Al-Qurtubi said; As for the interpretation of his being human, what is meant is that he is a dense body that interacts with and encounters, and the angels and jinn do not interact because of the kindness of their bodies, as the Almighty called us with (Oh human being) and this is an additional value for human beings. And respect.
The structure of human beings is complex, including (the author of the article), and sometimes we imagine that we are experts in the psyches and the insides of others and are able to treat them, and we are incapable of knowing ourselves and our insides, and by virtue of (formalism) our preaching discourses work on the external (the other) more than the internal (we). , and we neutralize God during our dealings with each other, so we confuse and flop (and whoever does not make God a light for him, then he has no light).
Seasons of goodness return to us, including the month of Ramadan. Let us ask again, what is our role in this life? What is the extent of our awareness of the reasons for entrusting us with these acts of worship? And is the mere formal performance of rituals sufficient evidence that we have fulfilled the message required of us? Perhaps we are not preoccupied with asking questions like these, given that we are the beginning of each Ramadan. We are preoccupied with how many rak’ahs we prayed, how many parts of the Qur’an we recited, and how many steps to and from the mosque did we walk?!.
Ramadan has entered, as usual in modern times, accompanied by a propaganda and propaganda campaign to become a lot in the tablets, a little in the spirits, we meet it in books, newspapers, the mosque, the radio, and the television, until a question was asked about the secret of the crashing waves of preaching, resulting from the preaching and exhorting fingers, obsessed, by writing down the sermons in the morning Evening on WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, in addition to the colorful pictures that are wasted on the stations, Snapchat, Tik Tok, and Instagram, and all of you know the answer better than me.
I wish Ramadan would be present in our souls, engraved in our conscience, and it is heavy (responsibility) because it burdens us with the burden of losing ourselves and reviewing our account statements with God and with people, and Ramadan is transparent and easy to expose the diseases of every fasting person, and reveals deficiencies and defects, so that each one of us begins a journey of healing Particularly, to possess piety, and piety is not what we write down on a tablet or parchment, but rather what dwells in the hearts of people, and is reflected in their dealings.
Fifty years ago, I realized a generation, their Ramadan; In their industrious practical production, and the evidence of their sincerity (their trustworthiness) and their passport to each other (their morals) and their link with life (their trust in God), bearing in mind that it was not the time of our fathers, grandfathers, and grandmothers (many preachers), except that each one of them preached from himself, and perhaps I do not exaggerate if I say They know God more practically.
Souls tend to break restrictions, jump barriers, crowd in line, rush to a restaurant or a bar, and get ahead of others in a line of people or vehicles. No one saw me.)
In these days, literature in all its structure, meaning, and manifestations prevails over the majority of fasting Muslims, who realize the pleasure of worship every evening, while they break their fast reassured that their fast has not been injured, and exercise requires continuation to bear fruit, and reap and reap its fruits.
Not everything is permissible, and not everything is forbidden, and what was permissible yesterday is forbidden to you today, and what was forbidden to you today will be permitted to you tomorrow, and with such practical training on curbing desires, and rationing cravings, the soul becomes accustomed to chastity, asceticism, and caution against insulting what is not yours.
We hope that fasting Ramadan will discipline our behavior throughout the year. During the day of fasting, you will be protected from all temptations, from things that break the fast, and there is no watcher, except that you do not eat or drink even if you are among those with excuses who are permitted to break the fast, because you are certain that fasting is politeness, discipline, mercy, and cooperation. And chastity, and generosity, and God is more generous.
Religion did not neglect order, as it is one of the evidences of worshiping God, and it is no less important than religiosity. Without order, chaos prevails and devastation prevails, so how do we learn from fasting to respect order? How do we transfer Ramadan from the fingers to the natures?
