Lesson Learned
After analyzing those five poems, I get some lesson to be learned in my real life. Those are:
Be lucky person
According to the Islamic lesson, a lucky person is someone who does better than yesterday. So, if we have done mistakes, we are not allowed to do those things again.
Walk on the Islamic way
If you want to live happily in this world and here after, we must walk on the Islamic way. We must walk on the Islamic roles. Follow what our prophet Muhammad has done and taught us. So, you will not lose your way living in this world and you will be saved in the other life. That is here after.
Thanks to God
We must thanks to God because we life in this world is because of His permission. Alloh holds all of power in this world and no one can stand up to Him. If we thanks to Alloh about everything, He will gives us more reward. On the other hand, if we deny it, He will return the calamity.
Using “Kalimat Tayyibah” in our daily activities
Kalimat tayyibah is some good sentences about Alloh’s name. As Muslim, we must be used to use them in our daily activities in order to get Goodness from Alloh. Starting our working, finishing our working till we breathe our last, we have to say those sentences. So, Alloh will be always beside us and we get His mercies and blessing. Amin
