Religious Views.

Why can't we walk straight?

Don't you think it is such a good thought to be ponder about?

Don't you want to know more?

Spend some time by watching the video below and continue reading this post after that. Perhaps, you will get a valuable knowledge that you have never had a chance to know before!


Until now, there are still experiments going on to find the answer of why human can't walk straight when there is no visible guidance such as sun, moon, star, mountain and etc. 

We think that we are going in a straight direction. However, it was a false information interpreted in our brain who have make us to turn and walking in circles instead. Without any guidance we might go astray. This is what life means!

For muslims, this thought has got something to do with their religion indirectly. Why am I saying such a statement?

This is because, the 'visible guidance' in the video can be interpreted as the Quran! Why? We, muslims were taught to learn and refer to Quran when we encounter difficulty in our daily life. Everything is there in the Quran. Past, present and the coming future! But a lot of people nowadays are like the people in the video. The guidance is there but we choose to be blindfolded!

Moreover, the 'fog' obscures the guidance from the people! In the real life, the fog can come in all sorts of forms such as wealth, status, excessive entertainment and etc. Sometimes they are so close to us that we don't even realize it is concealing the guidance. Beware!

Like Allah said in the Quran;

اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
Guide us to the Straight Way
Verse 6 | (1:6), Al-Fatihah


ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابُ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ هُدًى لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
This is the Book (the Quran), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqûn [the pious and righteous persons who fear Allah much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allah much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained).
Verse 2 | (2:2), Al-Baqarah

Based on the verses, we first asked Allah for guidance and He mentioned in the following surah that he has sent the guidance, which is Quran. It is the nature of human to have a guidance as to strive in this world and most importantly in the hereafter.

Time to flip some pages~
