A Close Look at the Self
I
have the right to understand myself and know my personality and my value in
life. I am a human being, and a man has a great value in this existence. So, he
has a dangerous responsibility in this life. Indeed, I was born on this land as
respected and honored and Allah, the Most High has granted me all these rights
as He granted me my right and share in this life. He, the Almighty says:
“And
indeed We have honored the children of Adam, and We carry them in the land and
on the sea and We provided them with sustenance of good things, and We have
exalted them over most of those whom We have created, by (high) decree of
exaltation.” Holy Qur’an (17: 70)
Likewise, I was born innately and as a pure existence, far from evil and
wickedness, and with me also instincts, feelings, conscience, and sensation were
born. So, I grew as my body grew and my mind opened. Therefore, I began to deal
with life through wisdom and wishes. It is my right to express all these with a
safe expression and accurately understand that it is my responsibility to
safeguard my pure and white page in the record of this life.
Surely, my personality, and the future of my life is a deposit in my hand. I
behave with it as I wish and lead my self as I like. Indeed, the ways of life
are numerous and diverse. In them, there is deviation and loss and guidance and
righteousness.
Most people are deviated while they are in their early years before reaching the
age of 17 and fall victim of their low desires, and as a result of bad dealings
with their instinctive motives.
Indeed, ignorance and arrogance overwhelms such people and they submit
themselves to such false impressions and the world of imagination or are led by
pleasure and enjoyment towards the pit. Therefore, their pure pages are polluted
and while the courts and the criminal offices of investigation record their
deeds and actions as the stupidity of shame in their files. People also look at
them as degraded and rarely do we find people who give them sympathy or strive
towards saving them.
