I would like to share some pointers from an article that I came across.To start with, this is more to self reminder but if it is essential to the rest, yes, by all means, let's digest it together and read on. The holy month of Ramadan is a time of deep reflection for Muslims worldwide. The writer offer contemplative pieces on contemporary issues drawing from the wisdoms of the Qur’an – the sacred scripture that Muslims revere as the words of God and God’s final revelation to humanity. The Qur’an is at the heart of Muslim faith, ethics, and civilization. Here how it goes.
A wise Arab proverb says, “Every war begins with words.”
This proverb holds true not just between nations, but even between family members and friends. How many a war have we engaged in which the tongue (or in this cyber world, to be exact - the fingers) was our sharpest and most brutal weapon?
In the teachings of Islamic spirituality there is much that is written about the importance of restraining the tongue or (again - fingers). The tongue (or fingers) is called “the mirror of the heart.” In other words, what appears on our tongue (or fingers) is a chief indicator of what is in our hearts. And, this becomes even truer in those unguarded moments when anger, frustration, or stress gets the best of us and our tongues lose any sense of discipline. Especially in this situation now, however,
"Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear" Holy Quran (02:286)
This is, perhaps too, why the Prophet Muhammad pbuh said that one of the ways of knowing if there is hypocrisy in our hearts is to examine what we say with our tongues (or fingers) when we become angry. If it is foul and vile words, then that is a measure of how much purification of the heart remains.
The masters of Islamic spirituality teach that the heart and the tongue (or fingers) have a two-way relationship. Even though the tongue (or fingers) is the mirror whereas the heart is the reality, if we work on polishing the mirror the reality also becomes polished with time and effort. InshaAllah.
So, what does it mean to work on the tongue (or fingers)? It means struggling within ourselves to restrain the tongue (or fingers) from all that is corrupt and ugly, like one would pull back a wild horse, and to train the tongue (or fingers) in the speech of goodness and beauty.
The sages and scholars of Islamic spirituality warn that the tongue (or fingers) should be guarded from the following 8 types of speech: lying; breaking promises or oaths; speaking ill of others or slandering; wrangling, arguing and disputing with others without any clear benefit or when you fear it will get out of hand; SELF-JUSTIFICATION or SELF-PRAISE in a way that leads to ARROGANCE; cursing or using foul language; invoking evil on creatures even if they are your worst enemies; jesting, ridiculing, and scoffing at people in a way that hurts people’s feelings or gives them a bad reputation – this is even worse when this type of speech is directed toward an entire COMMUNITY of people.
Each one of these has their specific descriptions and treatments, but in summary there are five steps that we can take to become more aware of our speech and to polish our tongues (or fingers), according to the spiritual teachers:
1) Knowledge: Just be aware of the 8 types of speech that you should avoid. Knowledge leads to introspection and introspection leads to reform. When you notice any of these ailments on your tongue (or fingers), take yourself to task and work to change you condition.
2) Silence: The Prophet Muhammad said that “ANYONE WHO BELIEVES IN GOD AND THE LAST DAY SHOULD EITHER SPEAK WELL OR REMAIN SILENT.” Silence is golden, so goes the saying. THINKING BEFORE you speak is the key. One of the great sages of Islam and Caliph after the Prophet Muhammad would place a small stone underneath his tongue and move it to speak only after considering whether what he had to say was truly beneficial. This might be too difficult of a practice for many of us, but it goes to show how seriously silence was taken among the spiritual elite.
3) Fasting: Increase your days of fasting, for fasting by its nature teaches restraint.
4) Change your surrounding: keeping good company and keeping yourself busy with good things so that your tongue (or fingers) finds very little opportunity to engage in baseless conversations.
5) Remembering the Divine: Cloaking your tongue with the beautiful names of God and the praise of those names will make your tongue to incline toward that which is beautiful and wholesome. Eventually, ugly speech will be completely antithetical and unnatural to tongue that is used to beauty.
To those who are affected with the current situation, let us all pray for each other. Eliminate hatred and accelerate peace and love despite who is right or wrong. Let Allah swt be the judge.
Everything happens by the will of Allah. Whatever He wills happens, and whatever he does not will does not happen.
“Great reward comes with great trials. When Allah loves a people, He tests them, and whoever accepts it attains His pleasure, whereas whoever shows discontent with it incurs His wrath.” (Hadith- Tirmidhi)
The remianing days of Ramadhan are perfect days to intensify our practice of cultivating a disciplined Muslim. These are not only the days of peak restraint but also increasingly remembering God, seeking forgiveness and longing for salvation.

types of reality shows 在 Trasher , Bangkok Facebook 的最佳解答
เป็นคนชอบดูรายการ Reality Show ประเภทเอาคนมาอยู่ในบ้านเดียวกันแล้วทำให้เกิดดราม่า เมื่อก่อนจะมีรายการแนวนี้เยอะแล้วก็หายไปเหลือแต่ทำครัวกับร้องเพลง พอเห็น The Real World Bangkok ก็เลยดีใจว่าแนวนี้กลับมาแล้ว
เอาคนแตกต่างกันหลากหลายรูปแบบมาอยู่ในบ้านเดียวกัน มีความแตกต่างทั้งทางเพศ ผู้ชาย ผู้หญิง เพศทางเลือก แล้วยังรวมไปถึงความแตกต่างทางด้านรูปลักษณ์ภายนอก ทั้ง สวย หล่อ อ้วน พิการ ซึ่งคนที่เขาเลือกมาอยู่ด้วยกันเราชอบหมดเลยนะ คาแรคเตอร์มันหลากหลายดี คือจะมีคนชอบจัดแจง มีคนทำตัวเป็นแม่คอยปกป้องคนอื่น มีคนแรด ๆ ที่สร้างปัญหาก่อนใครเพื่อน มีคนมั่น ๆ ที่ไม่สนใคร มีผู้ชายห้าวๆ โชว์เหนือ คือพอเห็นความแตกต่างชัดเจนแบบนี้รู้เลยว่า อยู่กันไม่รอดแน่ ๆ
อีพีแรกแค่เข้าบ้านเลือกห้องก็ได้กลิ่นแล้วอ่ะว่าใครจะเกลียดกับใคร คืออย่างนึงที่รายการนี้มันจะยั่วให้คนแสดงธาตุแท้ออกมาเร็ว เพราะมันไม่ได้มีของรางวัลมาล่อ ไม่ได้มาเล่นเกมส์ ซึ่งเราชอบมาก เสียเวลา แค่อยากดูคนเกลียดกันเร็ว ๆ 55555 เพราะคนมันอยู่บ้านเดียวกันโดยไม่มีโจทย์อะไรให้ทำอ่ะ ยังไงมันก็ต้องรำคาญกันเว้ย แล้วคนเราทุกคนมีข้อเสีย การอยู่ด้วยกันมันคือการอดทนกับข้อเสียของคนอื่นให้ได้ยาวนานที่สุด ซึ่งยิ่งกับคนที่เราไม่ต้องผูกพันด้วยแบบนี้ ยิ่งจะปล่อยด้านมืดออกมาไวกว่าที่คิด รายการเขาบอกไม่มีสคริปต์ แต่เชื่อเหอะว่าคนมาเข้าแข่งขันกันต้องแอบวางสคริปต์ วางบทบาทของตัวเองเอาไว้ แต่จะ keep character ตัวเองได้นานแค่ไหน นี่อีกเรื่องนะ
I like to watch reality show. I put people in the same house and cause drama. There will be a lot of items in the past. There are many shows and I have only kitchen and singing. When I see The Real World Bangkok, I'm glad that this style is back.
Putting different people in the same house. There are different types of sexuality, men, women, sexuality, gender, choices, including the difference in the outside appearance, beautiful, handsome, fat, disabled, which the people choose to be together. We like. We like. It's Well, there will be people who like to prepare. There are people who act like a mother to protect others. There are rad people who make problems before anyone. There are confident who don't care. Who don't care. Who has five men who show north. When I see the difference like this
The first emp. Just go to the house and choose the room. It smells like who hates with. It's one thing that this item will tempt people to show the real element fast because there is no prize. I don't come to play games which I like very much. I just want to watch people who hate each other soon. Haha. Because people live in the same house without any problem to do. We have to be annoyed. Everyone has a disadvantage. Being together. It is to be patient with other people's disadvantage for the longest The more people we don't have to bond with, the more we will release the dark side. The faster than I thought. The program says there is no script. But believe that people who come to compete with each other. We have to put the script to play the role of How long can I keep my own character? This is another story.Translated
