Knowledge

Bismi-llahi ar-Rahmani ar-Rahimi, In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. And I beg for forgiveness from Allah for whatever sin that I have done in the past and to show me the right path. Ameen.

Assalamualaikum / Greetings dear readers.

Knowledge. The higher the amount of knowledge we acquire, the more humble we become. Not the higher we put our heads up high and be a proud slave.

When we get to learn something, that is information. But when we learn something and apply it, that's called knowledge. In Islam, we must believe that all good knowledge comes from Allah SWT and all bad things come from our weakness and syaithan. We must admit that we are nothing without Allah. We need Allah because He is our Master. We are His slaves. When we learn something good, we praise Him. Alhamdulillah. Without knowledge, we really are nothing. We dont have a motive in our life.

Allah chose us as the best of all creatures He ever made. Because we have brains to think. We have been granted that ability to acquire knowledge through which, will enable us to know Allah better and with much deeper understanding. To be able to understand what is around us. To be able to believe in Allah's words in Quran. To be able to take whatever He commands us to do and whatever Rasulullah SAW has taught into our daily lives and make it a way of life. To pray only to Allah.

Without knowledge, we are the least appreciated human beings on earth. That is why knowledge is an important aspect in Islam. Allah emphasised this too. Through it, we will learn what's right and wrong, what is good and what is bad. To look deeper inside and not only touch the surface.

We do not acquire knowledge to be boastful or to get praise from others. That will not make us a good muslim. This will contradict what we read everyday in a verse of Al-Fatihah which means, guide us to the True Path. We cannot be on that path if we do not put in effort. Thus, we have to stay away from all feelings of being boastful, vain and ego. Nauzubillah. These are the works of syaithan.

Insya'Allah, let us pray to Allah SWT so that He will open up our hearts, spread the Light in it, and open up our mind and fill it in with Perfect Knowledge. Ameen.

If there's any error, I'm open for rectification. None is perfect as perfection only belongs to Allah (God Almighty). All good things come from Allah and all the bad things are from my side and the side of Shaiytan the accursed.
