Reflections...

Bismillah

The first, inshAllah, in a series of short reflections that will come straight from whatever is on my mind for the moment or day. Hopefully they will be of some benefit


Here we go...


Allah speaks in the Qur'an about men who mislead others by their "appetites unchecked by knowledge". Pause. Now, reflect on that.


How many examples can you think of where someone has mislead others, following his/her own desires, unvalidated by any real knowledge? You have to ask yourself this question too...am I guilty of this ...leading others by my own desires, irregardless of real knowledge???


Knowledge comes from G-d, so why not check your desires with that which G-d wants/commands for you.

Desire....To eat...
Knowledge/Command from G-d....Eat halal
