كيف نسجد لله ؟

كيف يسجد النجم و الشجر ؟
وَالنَّجْمُ وَالشَّجَرُ يَسْجُدَانِ ﴿٦ الرحمن﴾ 
كيف تسجد الكواكب و الشمس و القمر ؟ و هل يختلف السجود لله على السجود للإنسان ؟
إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ رَأَيْتُهُمْ لِي سَاجِدِينَ ﴿٤ يوسف﴾ 
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِنْ رُوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ ﴿٧٢ ص﴾”
إن كان السجود حركة مادية يتحرك فيها الجسم من حالة حركة إلى حالة سكون ثابة، كما يفعل الناس من إطاحة أجسادهم و إلصاق جباههم بالأرض، إن كان ذلك هو السجود المفترض فكيف يسجد إذن كوكب دائري و كيف له أن يلصق جبهته بالأرض ؟ 
و عندما أمر الله الملائكة و إبليس بالسجود لآدم، هل كانوا فوق سطح مستوي على الأرض ؟ و هل خروا فعلا على الأرض لاسقين جباههم على ذلك السطح ؟
ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ
السجود : حركة معنوية طويلة تدل على الإنصياع و الطاعة، و قد يكون إمثتالا ماديا لقانون أو أمر مادي معين..بمدلول الآية {ـ كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِبْ ﴿١٩ العلق﴾
إن تأملنا في الكون نجد أن كل شيئ تابع و منساق لقوانين تحددها الطبيعة، بدءآ من أصغر خط لا متناهي في الصغر من الكوارك إلى أكبر مجرة في الكون، كل محكوم بقوانين معبر عنها بمصطلحات و معادلات فيزيائية مختزلة من قوى الطبيعة جاذبية ، كهرومغناطيسية أو نووية.
عندما يسجد القمر، فهو يتبع قانون كوني فلكي في دوارنه على الكرة الأرضية في مدار بيضوي و دورانه حول نفسه “و إن كنا نرى جهة واحدة كل مرة ” يعبر عنها بحركة دائمة لا تنقطع مذ أن خلقه الله..
.
فكل الموجودات تلتزم بقوانين كونية تسمى بالسجود..هو فعل دائم لا يستوجب التوقف، و إلا تشوه النظام الذي نعيش فيه الٱن.
{أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَسْجُدُ لَهُ مَن فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَن فِي الْأَرْضِ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ وَالنُّجُومُ وَالْجِبَالُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ وَكَثِيرٌ مِّنَ النَّاسِ وَكَثِيرٌ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ الْعَذَابُ وَمَن يُهِنِ اللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُ مِن مُّكْرِمٍ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ }﴿الحج18﴾
..
فماهو القانون الذي أرادنا الله أن نتبعه بسجودنا كباقي المخلوقات ؟ 
قانون إنساني يهدف إلى رفع و إرتقاء الإنسان في سلم التطور، من إنسان طاغٍ .. { كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لَيَطْغَى }. إلى إنسان راقٍ يحاول التعلم و التعليم ..{ اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ (1) خَلَقَ الْإِنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ (2) اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ (3) الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ (4) عَلَّمَ الْإِنْسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ (5) }
قانون يمنحه حرية التعبير عن رأيه و إعطاء الحقوق لمستحقيها، بدلا من همجية التسلط و قمع و ظلم الأخرين و عدم التقوى المختزلة في عدم تأدية الحقوق للناس ..{ أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَى (9) عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّى (10) أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَى (11) أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَى (12)}
..
فقط بإتباعه قانون السجود سيقترب من الكمال الإنساني الذي يعلمه الله و لا تعلمه الملائكة ..{ كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِبْ (19)}

How Can We Be Creative ?

There are a lot of factors which can lead to creativity, although the public opinion about this phenomenon makes us think that it is something genetic, something that people born with. That being said, no one denies that creativity is a positive talent, that leads us to know and explore new great things. By looking at creative people’s lives we can say that creativity is the focus that you bring to the activity you are doing. It is also an attitude and an inner approach – how you look at things. And finally it’s not being afraid to fail while you’re doing something.

A person can be creative in such a way he ‘s doing an activity with such passion that makes his way different to how other people do it. That leads us to believe that any action can be creative, if you do it in a creative way. You can sing and dance in an uncreative way by not giving it the activity enough consideration or focus, and you do it just as other people do. But you can also cook and paint in a creative way by loving the activity of cooking or painting and giving it consideration and passion that will makes the way you doing it very different to how others do. It’s the person himself who can control how much his actions are creative by choosing the way he’s making them.

Another factor that can lead us to be creative is the inner passion we have for certain activities, the way people look at things. It’s about the inner talent we have to bring to this world. That’s why all of us aren’t dancers or painters. As Osho, an Indian philosopher said

”Not everybody can be a painter, and there is no need also. If everybody is a painter the world will be very ugly.” Everyone in this life is here to find what he loves the most and to enjoy doing it in a creative way. There is always that thing that you find  yourself happy doing, that’s your passion, hang on to it.

The fear of failing is a feeling that cannot lead to creativity. As matter of a fact, most of the creative people through history were not afraid to fail. As Thomas Edison said, ” I have not failed, I’ve just found out 1000 ways that won’t work.” His attempts to try again after every failure and how he learned from them, made him one of the creative people over history. Those who dare to fail and to try again are the only ones who achieve creativity.

Eventually the assumption that people have is that creativity has something to deal with genes. If there are the right parents, the child turns out to be creative. This is not at all true. We are all born to be creative. We did creative things when we were children, and this creativity can fade by time forever, or can occur again if they’ve been stimulated by focusing on the things we love to do and doing them with passion and joy.

Education System Here And There - A Small Comparison Between The US And Morocco

Education is one of the biggest issue that a country should seriously deal with to escalade the ladder of development and modernity. In all cases there is no country which can really develop unless its citizens are educated. However every government has challenges to deal with beside this matter. There are countries that are already on the summit of their educational development such as the US, while other countries are still struggling to improve their educational system such as Morocco.

Education is the sector that should be given more interest in order to lead the government forward. The situation of Moroccan education is unsatisfactory due to many variables that are linked to students, teachers, parents and policy makers. After the independence from the French colonization, Morocco adopted the policy of the Arabization of the educational system. It made the whole education system in the Arabic language after it had been in French language in the years of protectorate. That created a division in the education system. Moroccans from the middle and poor class study in the Arabic system, where the rich class study in the French system that colonization left behind. This division of the system of education may result in having two types of graduates: Frenchified ones who may get lucrative jobs and Arabized ones left with not well paid ones. This is what has created a big issue and made a hierarchical in the educational structure, because the labor market and universities demand French language as the first language spoken. That made all higher positions go to people who study in the French system.

One of the biggest challenge for education in Morocco is illiteracy. The adult illiteracy rate is still at a high of around 40 percent in 2007, despite efforts being made since independence in 1956 to reduce the rate of illiteracy which at that time was 87 percent, the budget of education in Morocco is weak compared to other countries. There is not enough money to restore some schools, and to build other institutes in many far areas.  In fact, Morocco has only 14 universities. Besides, they are some students who rely on cheating and believing on stereotypes which said that Morocco isn't the better country to realise their aspirations.

Where in the other part, the educational system in the US is very different.  The United States has no central Ministry of Education. This is the defining feature of U.S higher education. There is  Department of Education, but it is by far the smallest federal department. It doesn’t run schools or universities. It doesn’t issue diplomas. It doesn’t write or choose curricula. So each college or university decides for itself how best to teach its students.

The great strength of U.S. higher education it’s the power dedicated for literacy, preparing every new generation to write and read is a central responsibility of the American government. And the emphasis that No child left behind has only increased the centrality of literacy rate. The pedagogy of the American educational system  is to interact with intellectually challenging content even as it sharpens the ability of the students to make them think.

              We have always understood that education is the basic element in any country’s development. Some countries work seriously to improve their educational system for a better future for their citizens. Other countries found that it’s beneficial to keep their educational system on low rate to control their citizens.

Friendship with creatures

I'm in Statesboro, GA, and I arrived here since tree days and I saw somethings that seem very beautiful and interesting to know and to experience.I am willing to write about those experiences and I'll write them in small notes.

The city of Statesboro has a subtropical weather, it rains a lot in the winter and in the summer is become too hot, and sometimes it rains during the season of summer fastly and go, well I arrived in the summer, but what makes it easier is that there a lot of trees, plants, water and animals. For me that's the best place i wanted to live, because there is a beautiful wilderness where humans and animals can live along, and that  takes a long time, respect and dedication for a place to be like this.

One thing I've experienced during the two days of stay here. Is that you can made friendship with animals, insects or humans. I made friendship with a dragonfly who wakes me up every morning, hits my window several times as he would say " Good morning"  and flies away.
Also I saw a duck family in the university " Georgia southern university " who lives peacefully, people pass by without hurting them, cars also pay attention to this beautiful family, there was a girl who play with them like as she was playing with cats. That was very haunting for a person who came from a third world coountry. I wish we could peacefully with animals in my country. I think we had to pass the peaceful living with humans first and after maybe we could pass beside ducks without scaring thim. In fact the contact with nature allows the body to vibrate with beautiful and harmonious frequencies.

Does Traveling affects the way we feel ?

As we travel, we face a lot of emotions : happiness, pain, fatigue, excitement and also sadness, however one person's mood is much better when he travels. we can't know a trip by how much money does it cost, or how much time we have..a trip is known by the experiences we have, that describes new things, and new persons, or places.

Chatting with a friend from a priestly very conservative country about his various travels he did outside of his country, I realized that the citizen of this following countries when he travels as a tourist to the outside, he does not consider his trip as a recreation and an opportunity to discover the world as much as he seeks to exercise his normal life and to discover himself and his innate desires.. He is escaping a community where he looks like everyone else appearance, behavior and interests, to fly to a space where colors and expressions abounds and the frustrating barriers don’t exist, into a world where he can find some of what the customs of the society, the provisions of the Sultan and the self impressions of the scholars killed in him.. But my friend is very aware with a heart full of grief that he is returning to his hometown, the homeland of his friends and family…At the same time he will return to leave himself.

نريد أن نعيش حياة سهلة

 رمضان مناسبة لأن تزيد فينا التقوى و الإمان.

فهل نريد أن تكون من المتقين ؟

و هل هناك حياة سهلة ؟ و إن كانت فكيف نعيشها ؟

هناك من يصوم لكي يعيش معاناة الفقراء، و هذا كما أعتقد ليس مقصد الصيام في الإسلام. فإن كان ذاك مقصده، فلمذا سيصوم الفقراء إذن !؟

يؤكد الله صراحة في كتابه العزيز أن التقوى ليست بكثرة العبادة بل هي عمل..عمل أفقي بين أفراد المجتمع و ليست عبادة عمودية بينك و بين الله.

يقول الله سبحانه :

{وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدّىَ * إِنّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىَ * وَإِنّ لَنَا لَلاَخِرَةَ وَالاُولَىَ * فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَاراً تَلَظّىَ * لاَ يَصْلاَهَآ إِلاّ الأشْقَى * الّذِي كَذّبَ وَتَوَلّىَ * وَسَيُجَنّبُهَا الأتْقَى * الّذِى يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكّىَ }.

ينذرنا الله نارا سيدخلها الأشقياء، و سيجنبها الأتقياء..فأنت أتقى عندما تؤتي من مالك لصالح الفقراء و المساكين لأجل تزكية نفسك من البخل و الطمع..فالتقوى هو العمل على رعاية مصالح المجتمع بالعطاء و السخاء و المد ليس لأجل مصلحة سوى رضا الله.

فإن كنا نصوم لنُحِسَّ بمعاناة الجوعى من الفقراء، فبالأحرى بنا أن نعطيهم لكي لا يجوعوا أولا.

نريد أن نعيش حياة سهلة :)

( فَأَمّا مَنْ أَعْطَىَ وَاتّقَىَ * وَصَدّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىَ * فَسَنُيَسّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىَ ) 5ـ7

إذا أعطينا من مالنا و صدقنا بأن ما لدينا ليس كله حقا من نصيبنا، بل فيه نصيب للفقراء و اليتاما و الأقارب و المرضى و الجوعى و ذوو الحاجة و المهاجرين في بلدنا..فالحياة ستكون سهلة و مُيسَرَّة أمامنا.

فالإحسان، و هو أعلى مراتب الإمان ينبع من الكرم و العطاء و البذل لرعاية مصالح الفقراء.

( وَأَمّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىَ * وَكَذّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىَ * فَسَنُيَسّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىَ )8ـ10

أما البخلاء فهم الأشقياء.
