Who are those who have Life-Long Peace ?

"..which then of the two parties is surer of security, if you know" Al An'am : 81

"..Maka manakah di antara dua golongan itu yang lebih berhak mendapat keamanan (ketenangan), jika kamu mengetahui?"

"Those who believe and do not mix their faith with inequity, those are they who shall have the security and they are those who go aright" Al An'am : 82

"Orang yang beriman dan tidak mencampur adukkan iman mereka dengan kezaliman, mereka itulah yang mendapat keamanan, dan mereka itulah  orang yang mendapat petunjuk"

*            *            *

There is such people who finds peace once in awhile, in other than Islam.

But who deserves consistent, constant life-long peace?

This are people who truly came to believe and did not violate the rights of their faith by doing bad things, by doing the wrong things. 

*             *           *

Some of them can sit for 4 hours doing meditation, in one position and not move and you look at them, "man, this guy is really peaceful. He finds peace in it. He is calmed down"

Some people do yoga, and they find peace.

Some people listen to classic music and find peace.

So if you want to talk about how people finding peace, they'll said "I find peace in different things, different way!"

Somebody just like to sit at the beach and see the ocean waves and they find peace. 

That is just a calmness of emotion that acts temporarily.

What we're talking about when we say Peace, is actually :

 Our concerns, our grieves, negative emotions aren't just taken away for a little while, but You have a constant source of putting those things into perspective.

A lot of practices of peace that people do ; They like to forget their reality. In other than faith. In other than Allah SWT.

People like to forget their reality.

So a lot of people find peace when they get drunk. You know why?

Because when they drunk, they can't think. So they forget about their problems.

A lot of people find peace when they take drug. 

Because when they take drugs, their mind is gone. So they don't have to worry about their problems.

A lot of people find peace by playing video games or watching movies. 

Because when we're playing the video games and watching movie, we're not thinking about our own life. So its happy time. But as soon as it ends, we're like "Oh I don't want to face reality again! Put the next movie on!" and put the next one on, and the next.. and we keep cycling this things because of our own reality we can't face. 

The difference with us is, Our Faith, Imaan. If we really have it, we don't have to run from reality.

We can face reality and still be at peace.

All other options, All other avenues to find peace, they want us to get away from life.

Sometimes, what people do to find peace is they take vacation.

They go away from everything they know.

What do we do when we want to find peace?

We go in the jemaah, we go towards people and Pray to Allah, TOGETHER.

That's what should we do right?

So we face reality and this is The Beauty of our Faith.

Some peace you will find, 

but NOTHING like ALLAH WOULD GIVE YOU INSIDE OF THIS DEEN.

Protect your Imaan, and you'll always have a life-long peace, inside and out.

InshaAllah, May Allah guide us.
