Human is the best creature as being presented with mind which uses to think and differentiate between good and bad. Ability to judge what is going on, making decision, and be a loyal Muslim to Allah s.w.t is such a perfect norms happen in life of human. It is a privileges for each human to have mind as us, the only creature of Allah whose been given this special gift ever.
Compared to animals, they just been given a lust and the angel just been given the eternal devotion without any negligence to fulfill the responsibility of worship to Allah s.w.t. Thus, animal and angel are not being reviewed in the day of Hereafter. On that time, animal will be raised as a witness for every act while the angel will continue their duties and responsibilities entrusted to it.
As the matter of fact, it is a crucial necessity for people to appreciate the gift from Allah by using it wisely in terms of implementing the life as servants of righteousness. Mind or sense react as a controller for lust or common desire which always brings the wrath of Allah and bring us closer to the brink of disaster. That is the reason why mind is always being called as power or arrest. So, the keyword in here is, use our mind wisely and rationally.
Lack of knowledge or shortsighted bring the reflection of not using the sense to look for the good or avoid accidents from happening to themselves. In fact, the shortsighted will cause the low degree of human mind and make them lagged far from actual position.
Basically, people with the wise mind will use Al-Quran and As-Sunnah as the guidance for their life. In point of fact, the use of mind always being says in Al-Quran. Humans are required to use the mind by thinking, contemplate the nature and find the need to live through life. So, that’s shows the function of mind itself which use to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
Word of God says: "... Verily in all this there is evidence of people who understand"( Surah Taha, verse 54).
His words more meaning: "... Surely this is evidence for people who think." - (Surah Ar-Raad, verse 4).
Our mind should be used each time to ensure everything is not slip from the right path and stay as what it should be as the servant of Allah. Lazy to think and keep assuming every matter is sluttish is one of negative attitudes that need to be avoided immediately.
We are not liable for any losses if keep on thinking what is supposedly to be thought with. Technically, our intellect will not run out of any use though. But, it will even be more intelligent and thoughtful, if we use it as frequently as possible.
Conversely, if the mind is not used, it will be frozen and rusted. Frozen or rigid thinking associated with the thought that will not ready to accept anything else except of what was decided earlier. Seriously, it is terrible. So, lets us together appreciate this special gift as we are still belong here. I think that’s all..Jazakallahu khoir..Wassalam
