Jangan Percayai Informasi! Cerita Motivasi dan Inspirasi Nomor 1

Alkisah, ada sebuah perlombaan di sebuah desa. Lomba khas 17 Agustusan itu salah satunya adalah panjat pinang. Tapi, ada yang istimewa sore itu. Pinangnya kali ini diolesi cairan yang sangat sangat licin, yang katanya, tak mungkin dipanjat. Karena itu, hadiah yang diberikan terhitung besar. Uang jutaan! Sang panitia berani memberikan hadiah sebesar itu karena merasa yakin tak ada yang bisa memanjat pinang tersebut.

Sampai sore, memang tak ada satu pun peserta yang berhasil. Berbagai cara ditempuh, seperti mengoleskan pasir ke tubuh, hingga mengoleskan lem superkuat untuk merekatkan diri pada pinang. Setelah hampir tak ada yang berhasil, serombongan orang datang untuk mencoba. Karena sejak pagi tak ada yang berhasil, maka orang-orang pun menyoraki rombongan tadi. “Hoiii… percuma kalian mencoba. Pasti gagal, pinangnya licin sekali…!”

Tapi, rombongan tersebut tetap bergeming. Mereka pun mulai mencoba dan mencoba lagi, pantang menyerah. Semakin dicoba, semakin lama mereka disoraki. “Su

Superiority Comes from Character, Not Blood

by Harun Yahya Darwin's portraying human beings as a developed species of animal and his presentation of some races as not yet having completed their development, and as species closer to animals was intensely dangerous and destructive in human history. Those who took this claim of Darwin's as their guide mercilessly oppressed other races, forced them to live under the harshest conditions, and even exterminated them. Bryan Appleyard, author of the book Brave New Worlds, explains the tyrannical mentality underlying racism, and the results of it, in this way: The point is that once people decide you are a lesser creature for whatever reason, either superstitious or scientific, there appears to be no limit to what cruelty they may inflict on you. And they are likely to inflict that cruelty feeling fully justified, because it is but a small step from believing another human being is inferior to believing that he is bad, dangerous, or threatening to 'superior' beings.

Aqeedah: its Meaning and Importance

by Dr. Abdul Aziz Al-Qari, Introduction One narration states, "You are going to a people from the People of the Book. Let the first thing that you call them to be the worship of Allah. If they acknowledge Allah, then inform them that Allah has obligated upon them five prayers during their days and nights." [Al-Bukhari, Muslim] This hadith is clear. It does not require much of an explanation. The Prophet (peace be upon him) applied this principle in his practical calling to Islam. He stayed in Makkah for thirteen years to teach the people iman and to educate his Companions on this point and to correct the beliefs of the people. That is the pattern upon which the Companions were brought up. Jundub Ibn Abdullah al-Bajaly said, "We learned iman (faith) and then we learned the Quran and it increased our iman." Abdullah ibn Umar said, "We lived during an instant of time in which one of us would receive faith first before receiving the Quran and when the surahs were r...

Idolatry in Our Age 2

by Harun Yahya The basis of idolatry is the preference for a person, or a thing over God, for instance, to prefer somebody's approval to God's, to fear somebody as one fears God or to love him as one loves God…Or to do for an idol what he doesn't do for God, or to make a sacrifice which he does not do for God's approval. Given the foregoing arguments, it would be a shallow interpretation indeed to define idolatry as the worship of statues. This is surely an argument used by unbelievers to justify their stance. According to their explanation, idolatry ceased when the idols in the Ka'ba were broken at the time the message of Islam was communicated. If this argument were true, then the hundreds of verses warning believers against idolatry, and providing a detailed explanation about it, would have relevance only to a few primitive tribes in our day-a piece of a reasoning quite contradictory to the essence of the Qur'an. Furthermore from the Qur'an which will p...
