A contemplation

I was born as a Muslim, but that doesn't guarantee my comprehension about Islam. Islam taught me to pray five times a day. But before that, I have to believe in The Almighty God. What makes God exist? A lot of theories for it, and I know one thing. There's no immortal thing in this world, and everything works in pattern. I mean in the big picture, we were born, growing up, mature, old, and die. Just like perfect accidents happen on and on everyday in many different levels, and cause many different impacts and some of them are coherent. Maybe the question "Can we prove the existence of God?" is much easier to answer than "Can you prove the non-existence of God?". Cause the last one has only answers based on ego or weak science as what we have now. There are too many things that we don't know yet. Because when we do, we'll have much advance technologies, and we'll know how to heal this earth. Many things are beyond our reach, but too many things are very well arranged and working at the same time. God The Almighty created and put rules on it. To be frank my friends, actually there's nothing that we can control in this world, maybe some of your acts or plans, and some things which you have your expertise on, yes. But, we can't control what will happen tomorrow, and we haven't found the program to control that. Maybe never, cause we're too unperfect. We can only predict, and still it's hard to find the percentage of how good is our prediction.

In Islam, we follow the same pattern about praying. It is our training to face each day. Just like study and research, when you prepare for tomorrow, you'll feel more ready. That's how the perfect system (in this term: religion) works. Just like in nature's law that the one who tries the best is going to get the best result, in religion everything happens for reason, meaning nothing is wasted. Every single step has its own reason and purpose which only the most perfect can create this. And the most perfect is also the most caring. So, have we ever left alone? actually we're leaving ourselves alone many times. God seems so abstract for us, so sometimes we forget the existence. When actually God is watching us everyday, knowing exactly about our hearts. And sometimes, many things look like superstitions just because we don't have the technology to prove it. However, still God told us to think about things that He created, for us to use our logic to ease the doubt inside our hearts.

The perfect man who showed us the art to master it all had passed away. The perfect man in Islam was full of love and affection. He married the most respected woman in the history who was also loved by God. They set the very great examples of living as muslims. All we have to do is follow......follow with a good heart. In this month of Ramadhan, the Most Merciful opens all His doors for us, let us remember about Him in every moment, let us wash our dirts away.....insyaAllah...
