I’ve been mulling over an article of this nature for weeks however my muse was sluggish to ship. A suggestions message a flyer posted on my whatsap standing did the trick. To the message on the flyer which reads “you may RECOVER from the coronavirus illness. Catching it DOES NOT MEAN you should have it for all times,” got here the reply “thanks for sharing; at the very least you’re giving us optimistic vitality.”
And there you go, the impulse to put in writing arrived. The actual fact is that COVID-19 is a horrible illness with nice potential to kill any sufferer. Due to this fact it is vital that we stay cautious and vigilant; take directions like hand washing and bodily distancing severely and do no matter we will to assist on this international combat in opposition to this killer illness.
Having stated that, we must not ever lose hope within the warmth of this pandemic. The human physique is a fancy machine constructed by the Creator to face many challenges. Our distress lies in our need of knowledge. With data comes ease, understanding and resilience to challenges. Certainly the Bible is correct as clearly acknowledged within the Previous Testomony, Hosea, 4:6, “My persons are destroyed for lack of awareness”.
We stay in darkish and dire instances. However a mix of scripture and genuine scientific data will yield us the right torchlight to shatter the veils of darkness that represent the barrier to resolving the issues posed to us by the COVID-19 Pandemic.
The multitudinous issues posed by this pandemic vary from the physical-medical facet to psychological challenges arising from our lonely days of lockdown; these issues are compounded by financial points arising from the worldwide slump-down and likewise religious constraints as our homes of worship stay largely closed.
However there are rays of hope within the horizon and we should give attention to the celebs at the same time as we trudge within the muddy waters of this COVID-19 wilderness.
Within the Holy Quran, Allah teaches us that he has created the human being in a really strong and luxurious method. Verse, Four of Surah Tin (chapter 95) asserts “We’ve got definitely created man in one of the best of stature;”
So why are we overwhelmed with worry to the extent that the COVID-related infodemic is now creating its personal menace to our lives. The #Coronavirus has the POTENTIAL to kill anybody who’s contaminated with it; however that demise shouldn’t be automated as a result of the situations might be remedied and many individuals are recovering from the illness. In his Mercy and Knowledge, God has given us some organic troopers to guard us, known as the immune system. This protecting drive doesn’t obviate the necessity to take precautions and stay cautious, however it’s a lot wanted assurance in these darkish days we live in.
In an article revealed by the Washington Submit, George F. Will reminds us ” it’s estimated that day by day between one and 5 of your cells turns cancerous and your immune system kills them: ‘A few dozen instances every week, effectively over a thousand instances a 12 months, you get essentially the most dreaded illness of our age, and every time your physique saves you.’… “three billion years of evolutionary tweaks” have taught your physique some neat tips.”
So there’s hope regardless of the gloom surrounding our globe.
In the meantime, I woke as much as some inspiring phrases from the creator of the “Monk Who Bought his Ferrari” and different bestsellers, Robin Sharma, that nudged me into some shiny ideas shared with my followers on social media by means of our platform Sabally Management Academy (SLA) Fb group:
“The best way we cope with challenges can decide our success.”
The lockdown and social distancing ushered in by the present COVID-19 Pandemic have additionally provided us the chance for deep considering and research.
Use this era to #learn good books, develop your concepts for enterprise and scholarship; and prepare for the following massive #opening.
Each adversity carries with it the seeds of its equal blessing so open up a window of positivity in your soul in lately of worry and solitude…
Within the phrases of Robin Sharma, “This season of enforced quietude presents you a tremendous probability to tug again from the busyness and construct your self into a real hero.”
Really, solitude and quietude represent the fertile grounds for illumination of the thoughts and spirit and the germination of fertile and fruitful concepts. Each Jesus Christ and Moses (Peace be on them) spent numerous time alone within the wilderness. The Final and Ultimate Prophet, Muhammad (Peace be on him) was within the midst of self-imposed isolation and deep reflection when the sunshine of the Quran descended upon him to brighten the entire world. And from that tome of sunshine, I share hereunder some luminous rays of hope:
By the morning brightness.
And [by] the evening when it covers with darkness,
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He turn into displeased,
And absolutely what comes after is best for you than that which has gone earlier than.
Your Lord will quickly grant you ample favors to please you.
– Quran, 93: 1-5
We must always stay cautious and vigilant, however we must not ever ever lose sight of the rays of hope behind the darkish clouds the COVID-19 stormy climate.
