Change is Change and Change is Humanity

Change is Change and Change is Humanity

32:55 - 36:22 Consciousness, curiosity, interest of improving and learning makes difference between human and animal.

Donkey and monkey have no change in past 4,000 years. 

CHALLENGE is that we become static in learning. 

New books, learning sessions, libraries, seminars, Google. 

Things are there but not up to the required level. 

Here we are comparing a mountain with a small stone. Child curiosity, he will grab burning steel.

Ar-Ra'd (The Thunder) 13:11
لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِّن بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ يَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللّهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ لاَ يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُواْ مَا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللّهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُوءًا فَلاَ مَرَدَّ لَهُ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِ مِن وَالٍ 

[thinking that] he has hosts of helpers-both such as can be perceived by him and such as are hidden from him that could preserve him from whatever God may have willed. Verily, God does not change men's condition unless they change their inner selves; and when God wills people to suffer evil [in consequence of their . own evil deeds], there is none who could avert it: for they have none who could protect them from Him.

Verily never will Allah change the condition of a people until they change it themselves.



Imam Ali (AS): "Whoever has identified his self in reality has recognized his Creator."



Imam Ali AS: the cure is within you, but you do not see, the disease is within you, but you do not sense. “Your cure is within you, yet you do not sense it! Your sickness is from you, yet you do not see it! You are the open book. You consider yourself a small body; but within you is encapsulated (enfolded) the entire universe!”
The human being has unbelievable ability to reach the highest level (higher than angel and lower than animal).

"If a single person is guided by Allah through you, it will be better for you than a whole universe with all wealth in it."

if you guide a single person to Islam, it's reward is equal to freeing slave from family of Prophet Yaqoob (AS) - Hadith

Every one of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock." “Everyone of you is a guardian, and responsible for what is in his custody.

Jadid Fiqhi Masael by Ayatullah Sistani
Sukoon Muhal Hai Qudrat Ke Kaarkhane Mein
Sabat Aik Taghiyur Ko Hai Zamane Mein
Quiescence (inactive, motionless) is difficult in the universe; Only change is permanent in the universe

Bataun Tujh Ko Musalman Ki Zindagi Kya Hai
Ye Hai Nihayat-e-Andesha-o-Kamal-e-Junoon

What, shall I tell you then, is a Muslim’s life?
Ecstasy’s summit joined with profoundest thought!

Kham Hai Jab Tak To Hai Mitti Ka Ek Anbar Tu
Pukhta Ho Jaye To Hai Shamsheer-E-Bezanhar Tu

While you are still immature, you are a heap of dust;
When you ripen, you will become an irresistible sword.

Utha Saqiya Parda Iss Raaz Se
Lara De Mamoole Ko Shahbaz Se

Come lift the veil off mysteries,
And make a mere wagtail take eagles on.

Jab Iss Angara’ay Khaki Mein Hota Hai Yaqeen Paida
To Kar Leta Hai Ye Bal-O-Par-E-Rooh-ul-Ameen Paida

When certainty is born in these embers of ashes,
Then it gives birth to the wings of Gabriel.

Repentance moment of Ibn Ayyadh, used to be a thief.
“Has not the time arrived for the believers that their hearts in all humility should engage in the remembrance of Allah...” (57:16).

In Baghdad, during the lifetime of Imam Mousa al-Kadhim (a.s.), there was a well know man called Bishr al-Hafi.
The Imam said, “You are right. Had he been a slave, he would have feared his Lord”.

“The bravest of people is he who overcomes his leanings”. The real courage is demonstrated in this incident, which took place during the time of the Messenger of God, Muhammad (s.a.w.). He was passing by a place where he saw a group of youth competing with one another over who could lift the heaviest rock. Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) mentioned, 'The brave is the one who could overcome his desires'.

There is another example and lesson, which demonstrates true bravery, and which we could draw from the story of Poryay Wooly (a wrestler). When he was passing by and he listened an old lady saying, 'I wish my son would be winner today'.

More significant of the previous story is that of Imam Ali (a.s.) and Amr bin Wid, a battle-hardened fighter, at the battle of Khandaq (the Trench). Ibn Wid spat in the face of Ali (AS) who was sitting on his chest, prior to beheading him. Ali (AS) let go of him and moved away to have a stroll before returning to finish him off. 

“Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of God with their goods and their persons. God has granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) has God promised good: But those who strive and fight has He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward, - Ranks specially bestowed by Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. For God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.” (4:95-96).

Poisoned Society
Allama Iqbal replies to his father, that my people are so emotional that they don't care whether it is life water or lethal poison.

Prindon Ki Dunya Ka Dervaish Hun Mein
Ke Shaheen Banata Nahin Ashiyana
I am the dervish of the kingdom of birds; The eagle does not make nests
Huwi Na Zagh Mein Paida Buland Parwazi
Kharab Kar Gyi Shaheen Bache Ko Sohbat-e-Zagh
Earth‐bound crows cannot aspire to the eagle’s flights,
But they corrupt the eagle’s lofty, noble habits.

Zainabic Act
Those who died committed a Husaynic act.
Those who remain must perform a Zainabic act.

Do Not Run Away, Face Your Challenges 
Josh Shipp's life started off very challenging due to facts beyond his control. In his words, his life would be "determined by this one unfortunate situation." Despite all the things he had to go through, however, Josh Shipp learned to not run away from but face the ghosts that haunted him. 
1:28 - 2:04 Foster Home Insight
Don’t talk, just act. Don’t say, just show. Don’t promise, just prove.

What you Do not talk out, you act out.

You don't deal with it, it will deal with you.
You turn around and face the challenge (ghost, fear, circumstances, situation, screwed up, failed), that's the only way.

Stop listening these tags. Do not make someone's words a priority to you when all you are to them is an option.
