How to Be a Writer

The phrase "deaf, dumb, and blind" appears in the Quran, specifically in Surah Al-Baqarah (The Cow), verse 171. It is used as a metaphor to describe people who are completely oblivious to the truth, unable to hear it, understand it, or respond to it, essentially signifying their rejection of guidance despite being presented with it; they are "deaf" to the message, "dumb" in their inability to speak the truth, and "blind" to the obvious signs of reality.

The Metaphorical Meaning Of Deaf, Dumb, and Blind

This verse is often used in Islamic teachings to describe the state of those who stubbornly reject the message of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and refuse to believe in God's signs.

(They are) deaf, dumb, blind so they shall not return (to the right path) Deaf and dumb, insensible to light, they are unable to retrace their steps that lead them into error. deaf, dumb, blind, therefore they cannot return (to the light). Deaf, dumb, blind, so they shall not return.

Unable To Return To The Right Path

(2:18) They are deaf, they are dumb, they are blind; [17] they will never return (to the Right Way).

They have become deaf to hear, dumb to utter and blind to perceive the truth.

Those who reject the truth, although they may have the physical organs and faculties for believing, seeing and hearing, are akin to blind and deaf persons, only worse, because “seals” are placed over the spiritual insight of the heart, eyes, and ears due to their obstinate rejection of the truth. As Allah Most High tells us in the preceding verse, “Allah has sealed their hearts and their hearing, and their sight is covered. They will suffer a tremendous punishment.” (Surah al-Baqarah 2:7)

Spiritually Deaf, Mute, and Blind

The verse refers to the similarities between hypocrites and unbelievers. Both are deaf, blind, and dumb, meaning they do not believe or understand the truth. Hypocrites, even though they may appear Muslim, lack true belief. This unbelief is caused by prejudices, wrong viewpoints, and indulgence in wrongdoing. Like unbelievers, hypocrites are hindered from understanding the truth due to prejudice, pride, egotism, ignorance, or enmity.

The State of Unbelievers and Hypocrites

And the likeness of those who disbelieve is as the likeness of one who shouteth unto that which heareth naught except a call and a cry; deaf, dumb; blind, wherefore they understand not.

And the example of the disbelievers is similar to one who calls upon one that hears nothing except screaming and yelling; deaf, dumb, blind - so they do not have sense.

Preaching to unbelievers is like talking to someone who cannot hear anything except yells and shouts. They are deaf, dumb, and blind; they have no understanding.

The likeness of those who disbelieve (in relation to the messenger) is as the likeness of one who calleth unto that which heareth naught except a shout and cry. Deaf, dumb, blind, therefore they have no sense.

The parable of those who reject Faith is as if one were to shout Like a goat-herd, to things that listen to nothing but calls and cries: Deaf, dumb, and blind, they are void of wisdom.

And the example of those who disbelieve, is as that of him who shouts to the (flock of sheep) that hears nothing but calls and cries. (They are) deaf, dumb and blind. So they do not understand.

religionandspirituality

Religion & Spirituality

Surah Al-Baqarah (The Cow), verse 171

The secularity of the society in which we live must share considerable blame in the erosion of spiritual powers of all traditions, since our society has become a parody of social interaction lacking even an aspect of civility. Believing in nothing, we have preempted the role of the higher spiritual forces by acknowledging no greater good than what we can feel and touch.”

The teachings of Islam focus on developing human potential by following spiritual practices and being self-aware. Here are some key ideas:<ol><li>Human perfection is the central goal of Islam.</li><li>Spiritual practices and following Islamic teachings lead to human perfection.</li><li>Self-awareness and self-improvement are necessary for achieving perfection.</li><li>The journey towards perfection involves overcoming one's ego and negative traits.</li></ol>

The Islamic Concept Of Human Perfection

Current decadence, greed, evil, falsehood, corruption, violence, injustice, and exploitation all have a cosmic undertone. It is a “cosmic law” that civilizations which have become megalomaniacal will inevitably collapse. This is because all levels of existence are corroded – including the religious realm. Only a dimension beyond can redeem us.

The Cosmic Law Of Civilisations Inevitable Collapse

Beware of viewing nature as just 'raw material' to produce goods for consumers. This mentality comes from a narrow perspective that links back to the Age of Enlightenment.By thinking we can exploit the earth as a global factory, we repress our true understanding of the infinite connectedness of our being. This mindset has led to multinational corporations dominating and damaging our environment.

The Problem with Turning Earth into a Global Factory

People in tasawwuf use the term "nafs" to refer to the negative aspects in a person, such as anger and sexual desire. They believe that one must fight and overcome the ego, as mentioned in the hadith: "Your worst enemy is your nafs which lies between your flanks."This means that self-control and self-awareness are crucial in order to overcome negative traits within ourselves. In tasawwuf, it is emphasized to do battle with the ego and break it.This concept is also found in the saying: "Know yourself, and you will know your Lord."

Understanding the Power of the Ego

The concept of "nafs" refers to the soul, or the essence, of a human being. Depending on its state, it can take on different descriptions. These can include:<ul><li>The Satisfied Soul: This is when the nafs has achieved calmness and is able to resist the temptations of passion. It is considered to be in a positive state.</li><li>The Self-Accusing Soul: When the nafs is unable to find calmness, but still resists the pull of desires.. This is because it recognizes its shortcomings and rebukes its owner for neglecting worship of God.</li></ul>

The Concept of "Nafs"

<ul><li>The Soul that Enjoins Evil: In this state, the nafs gives in to the temptations of passion and follows the desires of shaytan. It is considered to be in a negative state.</li></ul>In its essence, the nafs does not necessarily consider its return to God, and is easily influenced by shaytan and his temptations. Only when it is able to resist these temptations and strive towards God can it achieve a state of satisfaction.

Understanding the Different States

Allah Most High has placed His Divine Secrets within us, but we have forgotten our origin and true potential. Our physical attachment to the world has left us in a state of ignorance, masking our hidden beauty and wisdom.Key Concepts:<ol><li>Perfection is within everyone</li><li>Allah has placed Divine Secrets in us</li><li>We have forgotten our true potential</li><li>Our physical attachment to the world has left us ignorant</li><li>Our hidden beauty and wisdom may be covered by our physical being</li></ol>

The Potential for Perfection Within Each of Us

The Divine Books and prophets are guides for spiritual awakening, leading us back to holiness and perfection. If we take a step towards Allah, He promises to come running towards us.Through His Mercy, Allah has given us the tools and examples we need to overcome the darkness we've enveloped ourselves in and reconnect with our Creator. May we wake up, rediscover our holiness, and draw closer to our origin through the guidance and love of Allah.

Allah's Instructions for Spiritual Awakening

There are two souls in man. One is called the animal soul and the other is the human soul. The animal soul controls our physical body and all our actions, while the human soul is a higher level of being, ruling over our desires. This duality within us is what shapes our character.<ul><li>Ruhu Hayvani: the animal soul, controls life, mind, senses, feelings, emotions, will, and movement of the physical body.</li><li>Ruhu Insani: the human soul, is a higher level of being, ruling over our desires.</li></ul>

The Two Souls in Man

The human soul is divided into two parts:<ul><li>Nafsi Ammara, our physical desires</li><li>Nafsi Natiqa, our rational being</li></ul>Nafsi Ammara, also known as the evil commanding ego, is responsible for our primitive desires. It is often referred to as the "animal soul."On the other hand, Nafsi Natiqa, or our "rational being," allows us to communicate with speech and connect with our higher selves. Understanding this distinction is essential for personal growth and self-awareness.

Nafsi Ammara: Understanding the Human Soul

The Six Stages of the Spiritual Journey will help you achieve inner peace and contentment by guiding you through:<ol><li>Nafsi Lawwama - listening to your conscience and resisting desires</li><li>Nafsi Mulhima - receiving direct instructions from your Lord</li><li>Nafsi Mutmainna - finding peace in serving your Lord</li><li>Nafsi Radiyya - accepting everything without resentment</li><li>Nafsi Mardiyya - embodying divine attributes and transcending materiality</li><li>Nafsi Safiyya - reaching a state of pure harmony</li></ol>

The Six Stages of the Spiritual Journey

Realize the value of everything, including opinions, is temporary and subjective.Opt for what is permanent, eternal, and powerful rather than something fleeting.<ul><li>Do not rely on the respect and praise of others.</li><li>Do not fear them.</li><li>Do not be like a fool who lights a candle when the sun shines.</li><li>Do not let others dictate your self-worth, for they are ever-changing entities.</li><li>Choose the everlasting and powerful, not the temporary and fleeting.</li></ul>

The Cure for Hypocrisy

Remember where you came from and where you will end up. Beauty, strength, intelligence, and wealth won't last forever. Your actions are lent to you by your Creator, good or bad. Be grateful and humble, for the fall from the bottom is less painful than from the top.To cure arrogance:<ul><li>Remember your humble beginnings and your ultimate end</li><li>Realize that everything, including your body and life, is not truly yours</li><li>Thank your Creator and feel shame for your wrongdoings</li><li>Humble yourself to avoid a greater fall</li></ul>

The Cure for Arrogance

The cure for anger is essentially linked to defeating our pride. When we think we deserve something and don't get it, anger is likely to flare up. It's a quick reaction that's hard to control, like fire, and it burns everything that makes us human. It's crucial to recognize and work on our arrogance in order to tame our anger before it takes over. Here's why:<ul><li>Arrogance leads to unrealistic expectations.</li><li>Anger flares up when reality doesn't meet our expectations.</li><li>Once anger catches fire, it's hard to extinguish.</li><li>Like a fire, anger destroys our positive qualities and leaves us wounded.</li></ul>

The Cure for Anger: Taming Arrogance

The Messenger of Allah (saws) advises that when angry, change posture: sit, kneel, or lie and pray for knowledge, kindness, piety, sanity and health.Ablution with cold water is another helpful step.By controlling our anger, we can reach the level where we receive the guidance from Allah and advance in our spiritual journey.

Effective Anger Management

Our only purpose is to give our love, respect and service to Allah.. but if given the opportunity every person would be a pharaoh. His ego would declare itself the highest lord.We must kill the dragon that is our ego and then we will find Allah with us and around us and within us.

The Ultimate Purpose In Life

If the resolve of the seeker is weak, he will be afflicted with arrogance, will not listen to good advice, and may even fight with those who wish for his well-being, thinking they are belittling him and behaving in a superior manner.In anger, his mood will become dark and disappointed, and he may start to think that he took the wrong path and was better off before.He may even blame those who led him to this path, ultimately falling back into his previous condition of being an animal in human form.

If he is warned at the beginning of the second step of Nafsi Lawwama of these dangers, and if he is intelligent enough not to release the hand which leads him, and if he follows the advice on how to fight the three enemies of hypocrisy, anger, and arrogance, he will pass this stage quickly.The longer one lingers in this transitory stage, the worse will be the trials.

How to Win When Failure Isn’t an Option

This New York Times bestselling memoir of a veteran NASA flight director tells riveting stories from the early days of the Mercury program through Apollo 11 (the moon landing) and Apollo 13, for both of which Kranz was flight director. Gene Kranz was present at the creation of America’s manned space program and was a key player in it for three decades. As a flight director in NASA’s Mission Control, Kranz witnessed firsthand the making of history. He participated in the space program from the early days of the Mercury program to the last Apollo mission, and beyond. He endured the disastrous first years when rockets blew up and the United States seemed to fall further behind the Soviet Union in the space race. He helped to launch Alan Shepard and John Glenn, then assumed the flight director’s role in the Gemini program, which he guided to fruition. With his teammates, he accepted the challenge to carry out President John F. Kennedy’s commitment to land a man on the Moon before the end of the 1960s. Kranz recounts these thrilling historic events and offers new information about the famous flights. What appeared as nearly flawless missions to the Moon were, in fact, a series of hair-raising near misses. When the space technology failed, as it sometimes did, the controllers’ only recourse was to rely on their skills and those of their teammates. He reveals behind-the-scenes details to demonstrate the leadership, discipline, trust, and teamwork that made the space program a success. A fascinating firsthand account by a veteran mission controller of one of America’s greatest achievements, Failure Is Not an Option reflects on what has happened to the space program and offers his own bold suggestions about what we ought to be doing in space now.
