One of the advice of Imam Ghazali

One day, Imam Al Ghozali gathered with his students. Then Imam Al Ghozali asked .... first, "What is closest to us in this world?".

The students answered "parents, teachers, friends, and friends".

Imam Ghozali explained that all the answers were correct. But the closest to us is "DEAD". That's why it is indeed a promise from Allah SWT that every living thing will surely die. (Ali Imran 185)

Then Imam Ghozali continued the second question.... "What is the furthest away from us in this world?".

His students answered "China, the moon, the sun and the stars".

Then Imam Ghozali explained that all the answers they gave were correct. But the most true is "PAST". Even if we can't go back in time. Therefore we must guard today and the days to come with actions that are in accordance with the teachings of Religion.

Then Imam Ghozali continued with the third question.... "What is the biggest thing in this world?". His students answered "mountains, earth and sun".

All the answers are correct, said Imam Ghozali. But the biggest thing in this world is "lust" (Al A'Raf 179).

So we have to be careful with our passions, lest it lead us to hell.

The fourth question is, "What is the heaviest thing in the world?".

Some answered "iron and elephant".

All answers are correct, said Imam Ghozali, but the most difficult is "HOLDING THE MANAGE" (Al Ahzab 72).

Plants, animals, mountains, and angels are all unable when Allah SWT asks them to be caliphs (leaders) in this world.

But humans arrogantly agreed to Allah's request, so that many people went to hell because they could not keep their trust.

The fifth question is, "What is the lightest thing in the world?"...

Some answered "cotton, wind, dust and leaves".

All that Imam Ghozali said, but the lightest thing in this world is to leave prayer. It's because of our work that we leave prayer, because of making a gesture we leave prayer.

And the sixth question is, "What is the sharpest in the world?"...

His students answered in unison, "sword".

Imam Ghozali is right, but the sharpest thing is "HUMAN'S TONGUE" Because through the tongue, humans always hurt and hurt the feelings of their own brothers.
