Unfortunately, we live in a time wherein
delusion is very common and widespread. It has had an impact on our
lives, our dealing with one another, our socialising with one another
and most disturbing of all, our religion. The Prophet صلى الله عليه و
سلم advised, when you see four traits become common in the people
concern yourself with yourself. From the four, one is that when every
man capable of formulating an opinion is obsessed with his opionion, as
this is a sign depicting the closeness of the Day of Judgement. This
obsession stems from arrogance which leads to further delusion as one
begins to hold all others in contempt. Verses of the Holy Quran make
reference to this trait and these are commented upon with further
relevance of how they are applicable today. |
