The dignity of the humanity
The meaning of dignity in the language
The lid is placed on top of the jar or pot
Human dignity: respect for one's self, a sense of honor and personal worth that makes one feel affected and suffer if one's destiny is diminished.
An ethical principle that states that people should be treated as an end in themselves, not as a means, and his dignity as a human being is above all considerations.
From the linguistic meaning, we understand that the human race is honored by the people, even if he is not honored by creation, regardless of his colour, age, height, width, beauty, ugliness, or social status, he is honored by God - the Most High - even if he is stripped of all the meanings that preserve his dignity, and therefore various evidences that we will review after a little bit from the Qur’an and Sunnah...
Let's start with the Holy Qur'an
Allah said
قال تعالى: ﴿ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ مِنْ ذَكَرٍ وَأُنْثَى وَجَعَلْنَاكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَائِلَ لِتَعَارَفُوا إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ ﴾ [الحجرات: 13]
The Almighty said: {O mankind, indeed we have created you from male and female, and made you into nations and tribes so that you may know each other, Indeed, the most honorable of you in the sight of God is the most pious of you. Indeed, God is Knowing, expert.” [Al-Hujurat: 13]
After the creation of creation out of the generosity of God - the Most High - that He did not leave people floundering in existential questions without satisfactory answers, and existential questions have existed since the existence of man, and what is the evidence? Imagine that, God forbid, you fell into a coma for months, and you suddenly wake up and you lost your memory, and you found yourself waking up suddenly at night, and there was no one there, and you do not know who you are and why you are here? Is this a good feeling, if it lasted for a whole day, two days 10 days, would you commit suicide? Or will you go partly insane, our father Adam came with the message of heaven, do and do not, then the purpose of human existence was alive in the head of our father Adam - peace be upon him, and he inherited it for his children, and whenever offspring forget, God Almighty sends a messenger to remind.
Back to the verse
O people, it is a declaration to any people, to those who came after Islam - think the most - why does God Almighty not speak to Muslims only? No, this is a declaration of deism that He is the Lord for all, then the divinity that deserves worship comes from each individual alone, and God knows best
O people, we created you from a male and a female
An announcement about the common sense with which God created people. We have not heard of the sons of Adam, nor for several centuries, the title of effeminate, or any other title other than male and female.
We made you peoples and tribes
Announcing the diversity of peoples and tribes, and you are an expert that diversity is richness, why do you want us to be copy paste, and God - the Most High - when He create us, he create us with all this diversity?
to get to know each other
Lam" l" , Lam Explanation: That is, we only came to get acquainted. Why? Yes, why do we get to know each other? let us take from each other’s cultures, and what the conscious person is, aware of what he takes and what he rejects, and the wisdom that every neighborhood desires, So consider, O people of sight, we have not come to launch stereotypical ideas from east to west, or from west to east. Leave them, it's stinking.
At the sight of God, whose most pious
Only, social status, beauty, height, width, and strength. Wow, where do you go, Lord, if someone who works for me is more pious than me, and I am the one who has strength, beauty, and social status, will be: he will be more honored to you than me, just because of his piety, a strange and difficult standard, except for those who made it easy for him.
God is Knowing, Expert
Yes, yes, yes: If the expert comes in a verse, then he does not look at the outward forms that are filled with people’s conformity in order to be able to live, but the point of view is the soul, the heart, the soul, from the inside, where MRI or FMRI is not involved, so you recognize speech before you utter or write it in the emerging moments of thought.
( We have created the human in the best way)
Did God - the Almighty - really create man in the best way?
Any modification, that is, it was not possible to be more creative than it was, how can this and people with special needs fill councils in all countries, and whoever was born with a disability!!!
Look: Have you heard in the first centuries of human life (Adam - Noah - Sheth - Idris) peace be upon them all about such diseases? So, have you heard of it from the beginning of the Muhammadan message for the first three centuries after Islam, for example? The answer is no, we did not know about such diseases until recently, so do not talk about that God Almighty did not create us in the best of modifications, and we are the ones who have mutilated our bodies sometimes with obesity, and diseases from bad habits at other times.
Look: Have you ever attended the birthday of a little child, and someone brought him a gift in beautiful gift paper, and the child did not like this gift, so he picked it up from whom he was, and threw it on the ground and smashed it with his leg and said to him: Your gift I do not like, is this reasonable? Is this literature in place? and God has the ideal, this is what we do specifically with the Creator, we create with healthy bodies free from every disease, in-shape if the expression is well, then when we return to him we return to him with excessive fat and diseases of the whole world, Is this from politeness with grace.. stick to your limits, God created us in the best form
Allah said
وَقُلِ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ فَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُؤْمِنْ وَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيَكْفُرْ ﴾ [الكهف: 29]
And say the truth from your Lord, so let him who wills believe, and let him disbelieve who wills (Al-Kahf: 29).
Allah said
﴿ لَا إِكْرَاهَ فِي الدِّينِ قَدْ تَبَيَّنَ الرُّشْدُ مِنَ الْغَيِّ ﴾ [البقرة: 256]
“There is no compulsion in religion. Righteousness has been distinguished from misguidance.” [Al-Baqarah: 256]
Allah says
﴿ قَدْ جَاءَكُمْ بَصَائِرُ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ فَمَنْ أَبْصَرَ فَلِنَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ عَمِيَ فَعَلَيْهَا وَمَا أَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيظٍ ﴾ [الأنعام: 104]
“Insight has come to you from your Lord, so whoever sees it is for his soul, and whoever is blind, it is against it, and I have no guardian over you (Al-An’am: 104).
The previous three verses talk about the freedom to embrace Islam or to leave it, and this does not mean that there are no consequences, rather there are consequences, but freedom of choice is guaranteed to all, It is a declaration of a human right that they are talking about today at the United Nations
The United Nations recognized the importance of freedom of religion or belief in the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights (the Universal Declaration), Article 18 of which states that “Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion
• a) Every person has the right to express his thoughts and beliefs as long as it is within the limits stipulated by law. However, no person shall have the right to publish falsehoods or publish reports that would offend public morals, or indulge in slander, suggestive or defamation of other persons.
This right shall include freedom to have a religion or any belief of [her] choice, Similar provisions can be found in Article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (Civil and Political Covenant) International and Regional Protection Instruments
Allah says
﴿ وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ ﴾ [البقرة: 186].
And if My servants ask you about me, then I am near, and I answer the supplication of the supplicant when he calls me, so let them respond to me and believe in me, so that they may be guided (Al-Baqarah: 186).
This is a dignity of another kind, we are sinful human beings, and the feeling of embarrassment about disobedience - especially if it is great - is a feeling inherent in human instinct, we can be ashamed to talk about it to the closest of relatives, but with God - come - the matter is different, there is nothing wrong with it, but you tell him I fell and will you accept me again or not, and the matter is over, this is the Lord of the Muslims, near who answers the call of the caller if he calls him, There is no need to raise the voice or make supplications out loud towards the sky... But we pray and pray and pray and do not respond, perhaps for many years. Why?
First: God - the Most High - loves the obtrusive servant, and he loves to hear the voice of some believers, so if your need ends, you will not call him again, which is what actually happens.
Second: The levels of response to supplications that we all know, either the supplication will be expedited for you and your request will be implemented immediately, and you must have tried it at least once in your life, Or he delays it for you in the Hereafter, and it will be said to you: Do you remember a supplication on such-and-such a day, then you say: yes, Lord, and it is said to you: go to this orchard, for it is your late supplication, or if a calamity descended on you from heaven,and you are praying for something else and you do not know anything about the calamity, so they limp in the sky (praying and calamity, it does not come down, nor does the supplication rise) thus until the Day of Resurrection.
Fourth: There is a condition in the verse, and you know that if the condition comes in an equation, the equation will not be fulfilled without it, and the condition here is (let them respond to me and believe in me), faith and we know it, and how does God Almighty ask us to believe in Him when we supplicate while we actually do believe in Him, Glory be to Him, the Most High? the truth is that with prolonged testing, a person may lose his faith, or less than the required level, and he feels that God does not hear him.
As for the response: it is a response that does and does not do, but many people do what God wants and they are the most tested people, and perhaps they were among the owners of supplications that were answered for others and their supplications were not answered for themselves, however, one of them turned and swore to him: do you not pray for yourself when you are blind, that your sight return to you? This is the will of God, if he respond to him he would have become above human beings, and there is no post human or trans human in Islam or anything else, rather all are equal like the teeth of a comb, of course before God - the Most High -
The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, “All of you are from Adam, and Adam is from dust.” He also said, “There is no preference for an Arab over a non-Arab, And for Ajami. over an Arab, nor for a white against a black, nor for a black over a white, except by piety.”
After reviewing some of the meanings - not all - of human dignity, should slaves appear again at the end of the 21st century and be a popular trade in all countries, even western ones? and not only in Africa, but even worse, that the largest Arab Muslim country is the one that contains the largest percentage of slaves (Mauritania). God returned his honor to Islam and returned all people to understand the meanings of humanity as God loves and satisfies.
Does work important in Islam?
Did it urge Muslims to work, and why are some Muslims in the world without work? Is this beyond their control - global unemployment - or voluntary unemployment? The truth is that Islam urges Muslims to work in all aspects of life, even the woman in her husband's home (a shepherd), meaning that woman working on the affairs and management of the home, then it is a type of management, then it is work... Let's delve into what was said in Islam about work... Let's start.
Allah said
وَجَعَلْنَا النَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا (11)} [النبأ]
And We have made the day for a living (11)} [Al-Naba’]
Pension: What is life in terms of food, drink, and the like
ِAs for the noble verse makes it clear to us that God - the Most High - did not create the day except for people to be active and start their lives working to improve it.
The order of spreading
Allah says
( فَإِذَا قُضِيَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَانتَشِرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَابْتَغُوا مِن فَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيراً لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ)
(So when the prayer is over, spread out in the land and seek God’s grace, and remember God often, that you may be cultivated.)
And you are an expert that the spread is the opposite of the organized queues, that is, it comes randomly as the bed is in every direction, which is what really happens with Muslims after performing Friday prayers, each of them has a destination that he wants to go to after Friday prayer, which is different from others, and it is a command from God Almighty, and it is not spread just for the sake of spreading, but for the sake of sustenance from God’s grace — the Most High, as if the meaning is that we never take Friday off, but work because the livelihood after prayer is blessed in it, unlike the time of Friday prayer in particular, and whoever works in trade - even if a non-Muslim - knows after Friday prayer how much is doubled (baraka)
Allah says
( إنَّ اللهَ تعالى يُحِبُّ إذا عمِلَ أحدُكمْ عملًا أنْ يُتقِنَهُ)
(Verily, God Almighty loves if one of you does a job that he does it perfect)
It is an indirect order, so there is no Muslim who has the right of Islam but who does not like to please God with him, and what pleases God for the servant is (perfection), and what can a person master if he is free of work? in reading the Qur'an, or fasting? no, but in work, so it is an indirect urge that every Muslim is not free from work, even if it is simple, and he has to master it, now: do you remember with me the saying of Imam Muhammad Al-Ghazali - may God have mercy on him - (Indeed, my face will darken when the work comes from the unbelievers, perfect and good, and it comes from the Muslims weak and distorted), Why do Muslims work against all the orders of God - the Almighty - why do Swiss watches live for you for 30 years without a significant fault, and the watch that your Muslim brother makes in an Arab country only lives with you for a few months, Oh fear that their work will be accepted more than ours!!!
The succession for work, not for rest
Allah said
ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاكُمْ خَلاَئِفَ فِي الأَرْضِ مِن بَعْدِهِم لِنَنظُرَ كَيْفَ تَعْمَلُون)
Then We made you successors on earth after them to see how you act.)
Nation comes nation after nation, and generation comes after generation, and it is assumed that life is in progress and not delay, meaning that every new generation brings what the previous generation did not bring, so is this the case? God Almighty - alerted us to this matter: Then We made you yes, you and I, and we, Khalif: Gathering a caliph after a nation that preceded for what they did, why? Only (so for God may see) the quality of the work of the new successor generation. Are we really ahead of our predecessors? Are we really strong backwards? Or just numbers to count and wombs to give birth and land to swallow?
The work of the prophets
يذكر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم لأصحابه أنه “ما بعث الله نبيا إلا رعى الغنم ، فقال أصحابه: وأنت ، فقال: نعم كنت أرعاها على قراريط لأهل مكة”
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, mentions to his companions that “God did not send a prophet except to shepherd sheep, so his companions said: And you, and he said: yes, I used to shepherd them on carats for the people of Makkah.”
Even the role model of the previous nations had to work, and the strange thing is that all their work at the beginning of their call was one (sheep grazing), we will not say for the sake of patience or the dealing of sheep, because people’s dealing is easier after that, but we say that it is a very modest profession, so will the white-collar people who refuse to enter the field of work learn anything simple in the beginning? Before the air-conditioned offices, so that they know that stressful beginnings lead to great leaders after a while... of course, God knows what He wants from His servants.
قال رسول الله - صلي الله عليه وسلم - ما أكل أحد طعاما قط خيرا من أن يأكل من عمل يده ، وإن نبي الله داود كان يأكل من عمل يده”، وفي رواية: “كان لا يأكل إلا من عمل يده”
The Messenger of God - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - said: No one has ever eaten better food than that which he eats from the work of his hand, and that the Prophet of God David used to eat from the work of his hand, and in a narration: “He only ate except from the work of his hand.”
In principle, who is David - peace be upon him? Is he a prophet, a messenger like the Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace? or is he a prophet king? rather, a prophet is a king... Look: he only ate from the work of his hand, what is this? So it is hard work that connects the night with the day, until he only eats from the work of his hand, and he is king? strange thing isn't it? Then the Messenger of God draws attention at the beginning of the hadith that the best food is what comes after the fatigue of the night or the day or both... so what is the relationship of this speech with the state of the Islamic nation? why do some men depend on women for tasks while they are addicted to alcohol or drugs, Why did the nation numb? why is the infidel West superior to us in this matter, so you find that the whole work is an act of worship that comes from them clearly ? and come from us meager idle?
The rational view toward things
A man passed by the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and the companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant them peace, saw his strenth and energy and said: O Messenger of God, if this was for the sake of God?! The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: If he went out striving for his children when they were young, He is for the sake of God, and if he is out striving for two elderly parents, then he is in the cause of God, and if he is out striving for himself, he is chaste, then he is in the cause of God, and if he is out striving to show off and bragging, then he is in the path of Satan
The Messenger of God - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - passed by a group of Companions marveling at a person who seemed to be not one of the Companions, but he was active and moved vigorously for his work, and they were accustomed to the fact that the strong among them would enter wars with the infidels in order to elevate the word of Islam and this is the only way for sake the face of God , So the Messenger of God corrected their view of matters and told them 3 cases that you think are for the sake of God
Striving for the sake of his children stops them from asking people: He is for the sake of God.
Whoever seeks to support an elderly mother and father to secure their needs: He is for the sake of Allah
Even if he goes out striving for his own sake, to excuse himself from asking people: is he in the path of God?
After correcting the view of things, did you notice with me the expression (saa’i, which was repeated 3 or more times in the hadith) and what is the significance of that? You are an expert that saa’i is a persistent movement that is greater than walking and less than running, in which an unusual activity was supported. the Messenger of God responded with this gait and even rejected stereotyped ideas from the Companions, that for is not what they like or see things from their own perspective... It is the pursuit oh my unemployed Muslim brother... get up and do anything even if you fix the things that are corrupted in your home for you so that you are not without distraction.
4- As for this strength and activity to show people its strength and activity, then this is (the path of Satan), may God protect us, The idea that you take care of every movement and stillness that you make, and know whether it is for God or for other than God from the beginning.
The types of people with God Almighty
Allah says
(وَآخَرُونَ يَضْرِبُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ يَبْتَغُونَ مِن فَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَآخَرُونَ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ)
(And others strike on the ground, seeking God's grace, and others fight in the sake of God)
God Almighty enumerated - types of people, including those who strike on the ground, meaning that their gait with force is as if they were struck on the ground in order to earn their livelihood, and others fight for the sake of the weak of Islam and the protection of Islam from attacking it, and God Almighty no longer belongs to us among the categories (the unemployed), as if he does not see them in life at all. Of course, God knows best.
Islam is a race for civilization and urbanization (talk about industry)
Allah says
وَأَنزَلْنَا الْحَدِيدَ فِيهِ بَأْسٌ شَدِيدٌ وَمَنَافِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ وَرُسُلَهُ بِالْغَيْبِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ﴾...)
And We sent down iron in which there is great strength and benefits for people, and so that God knows those who help Him and His Messengers in the unseen, for God is Powerful, dear (...)
The station here is not the place of the scientific hadith about the proof of modern science that the iron metal came from a meteorite in the sky and was not one of the earth’s minerals in the beginning, but the station is the place of industry, starting with shields in the era of the Prophet (David: peace be upon him) and to ballistic and non-ballistic missiles In our time, I am not joking, but I say that the iron descending from the sky is a sign that light or heavy industries are, It is one of the beloveds of the sky, so the bottom line of the noble verse is that God looks (to know) who helps Him and His Messengers in the unseen, and they do not see God because He is invisible, and because the Messengers have a period in which they live among their people and then die, so that after their death it is known who will support their thoughts over other than them. thoughts, then he ends the noble verse with: Strong, Mighty: that is, rare to exist, and dear who does not humiliate, but the matter is up to us, For example: You have many companies and a lot of money and you have children, and after a while you will die, and you want to test them how they spent this huge money? so you give them the mechanisms and leave them to see how they work, and God has the highest example, except that God Almighty is alive and does not die.
The shipbuilding industry
Allah says
(فَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ أَنِ اصْنَعِ الْفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا}المؤمنون 27)
(So We revealed to him, “Make the ark before Our eyes and by Our Revelation.” Surah Al-Muminoon 27)
Shipbuilding was almost the first industry that was on earth during the era of Noah - peace be upon him. This is how God Almighty wanted the elite of the people (His Messengers) to be without empty hands, calling is one thing and their work is another thing unless something comes that occupies them as the Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace when he emptied the call when the message came down to him because he was the last prophet and because the preoccupations were beyond energy. God knows
Allah says
وَعَلَّمْنَاهُ صَنْعَةَ لَبُوسٍ لَّكُمْ لِتُحْصِنَكُم مِّن بَأْسِكُمْ ۖ فَهَلْ أَنتُمْ شَاكِرُونَ (80)
(80) And We taught him how to dress for you, to protect you from your hardship. So are you thankful? (80)
The manufacture of the Prophet’s King (Daoud: peace be upon him) is the manufacture of iron shields, and you may notice that this industry is the blacksmithing industry, and it is a cumbersome industry, but it has an unpleasant smell, shrapnel and remnants of lead and others remain on the clothes. nevertheless, he belonged to a prophet, and God Almighty did not please him except he has a profession, strange matter, isn't it?
The science of management
Allah says
قَالَ اجْعَلْنِي عَلَىٰ خَزَائِنِ الْأَرْضِ ۖ إِنِّي حَفِيظٌ عَلِيمٌ (55)
He said, “Put me on the treasures of the earth.” (55), I am the preserve Knowing (55)
As for our master Yusuf, peace be upon him, he found in himself administrative sciences with which he could manage the affairs of the country at a critical time, at a time when all the Arab countries around Egypt were experiencing a famine like the beloved Palestine, A questioner may wonder how this is, and he has spent his whole life in prison. He is a young man who grew up in the house of the King (Aziz of Egypt), He loved him a lot and sat with him, he may have sat with kings and presidents when he was young, he may have known how the higher affairs of the country are managed and he was clever and memorized what he received, education at a young age is like engraving on a stone, It is like a university of a special class, but it has moved to his place of living... Of course, God is the Most High and All-Knowing.
The trading
( رِجَالٌ لاَّ تُلْهِيهِمْ تِجَارَةٌ وَلاَ بَيْعٌ عَن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاَةِ وَإِيتَاء الزَّكَاةِ(
(Men who are not distracted by commerce or sale from the remembrance of God and the establishment of prayer and the giving zakat)
The Prophet - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him- said: (The best earning is an mabror: none of the sins mix with it, And the man worked with his hands.)
The Prophet - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - said: (The honest and truthful Muslim merchant is with the Prophets and the truthful ones, and the martyrs on the Day of Resurrection)
The Agriculture
Allah says
(أَفَرَأَيْتُم مَّا تَحْرُثُونَ أَأَنتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُ أَمْ نَحْنُ الزَّارِعُونَ} الواقعة
(Have you seen what you cultivate, do you sow, or are we the sowers)
The truth today is agriculture has gone an unusual doctrine, they follow the crops from their homes on apps on the mobile or the tab because they put artificial intelligence in the place of the crops, but in fact you put the seed and prepare the place for planting with all kinds of preparation, whether in, A greenhouse or in agricultural land or tundra or something else, and perhaps the crops have yielded, or parts have been produced and parts are not, and you are standing idly by, why? And you start with the possibilities that lead you to a mistake to avoid it the next time, for the truth is that you start planting and growing and sustenance remains with God Almighty, and God knows best.
The Encouraging halal earnings and avoiding beggary
The Messenger of God said: (He who spends a night kaln: so tired, and he who seeks what is lawful sleeps is forgiven)
Kalan: Rough to get something
The Rightly-Guided Caliph Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him: (I see a man, and I like him, so I say he has a craft, and if they say, “No, he fall from my eyes.”)
The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The upper hand is better than the lower hand, and start with those you depend on you.
The meaning is that the hand that works or gives charity is better than the lower hand that extends its hand to take money
stay away from begging
He - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - said: (A man continues to ask people until the Day of Resurrection comes when he does not have a shred of flesh in his face.
He, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said in the hadeeth mentioned above: “For one of you to take his rope, then go to the mountain and get wood and sell, eat and give alms, is better for him than asking people.
