you can see the parable as human connections, or something that was passed down like a knowledge, if it was not passed down, it will lost. if it was written down, there is always potentials when the future people won’t be understand what it meant

After i completed the series, it gives me a new perspective. As if the era of the prophet (SAW) is separate in a sense that after he was passed away, the entire world, a new era begin.

and i just thinking that in his era, (in context of social and politics) it really is magical, in a sense that it was beyond what human does in the context. translate as: his era (SAW) really is blessed and different, therefore we can’t expect to copy something from his time directly from that era to now, but as a baseline to act in this era.

at least the eps103-104. opened my eyes that he is The God’s Prophet (SAW) and is indeed from mankind, from his ijtihad and how he is act in the matter with God, and with mankind.

(as if the last eps it was clear to me which one is the story of the prophets and which one is socio-political story, and the transition from the era of the prophets and socio-political now and the prophets trails after the era transitioned)

Sesungguhnya Allah tidak mengubah keadaan sesuatu kaum sehingga mereka mengubah keadaan yang ada pada diri mereka sendiri.

Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves.

I just thinks of what’s make us do certain behaviors? It is something in ourselves, then the question will be what we need to change when we want to change certain behaviour?

ie: (good) self confidence. (It is reflected from Messenger’s of God actions and speech)

Then the question will be: what is inside of me that makes me not confident? And according to what happened in the past, i will add another question: what makes me overconfident? –——— I also thinks of how to act around people, what do people is thinking when seeing other people or something? Or perhaps they’re just seeing it naturally?

What i’m trying to say is that when i saw some child near me what should i do? Greet the child? Give them smile (being gentle, my friend is doing this)? Or just ignore them (in my mind i do that for the parent)? As far of today i do the latter. But that raise the questions, which one should i do? I do think that this is an over analyzing and overthinking it, since which work for that time, it is for that time. But that raises the question of this: at some moment i fear that i if i greet or smile there is some concerns:

1. Usually people will not do that (especially men ofcourse)
2. Usually women that do that.
3. I fear that there is an obligation to keep contact with them or the family. on those 3, we can elaborate number 1 and 2 as: fear that i was not manly enough/being seens as a feminine (or straight up weirdo/suspicious person)

• aku mau memperbaiki indonesia.
• aku mau menjadi manusia yang baik kedua hal tersebut tidak bisa diukur. lalu coba kita lihat contoh kuantitas
• kita akan memperbaiki ekonomi fiskal kita sebesar 5% tahun ini
• aku membantu orang miskin dengan bersedekah semampunya kedua hal tersebut bisa diukur dalam artian 5% bisa diukur, dan saat bersedekah semampunya bisa diukur berapanya lalu apa hubungannya dengan visi dan goal?

visi itu in a sense bisa diukur tapi agak ngawang (mimpi), kalau dari contoh sebelumnya qualitas masih ngawang sehingga tidak bisa di jadikan visi atau goal. lain halnya dengan kualitas, kuantitas bisa diukur. Tapi untuk kuantitas menjadi visi itu adalah harapan atau hope untuk kedepannya yang artinya ada unsur ngawang tapi bisa diukur. Kenapa bisa? karena visi adalah hal yang dituju

[!quote] visi itu orang yang bisa melihat kedepan

lalu apa itu goal? goal adalah step yang bisa di breakdown untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut (visi/mimpi)

agak oot tapi untuk suatu visi bisa tercapai harus diusahakan sebaik mungkin. contoh:

• saya mau turun berat badan 20kg dalam 2 bulan lalu dia melakukan breakdown apa yang harus dilakukan, jadwal dan pola latihan apa yang mau dilakukan. lalu barulah bisa diukur apakah tercapai atau tidaknya.

namun apa yang terjadi kalau belum tercapai? tidak tercapai bukan berarti tidak sukses, contoh:

• sudah melakukan latihan sesuai jadwal dan latihan dimaksimalkan namun hanya turun 10kg. ini termasuk sukses. namun kalau misalnya dia latihan seadanya, tidak memplanning dan menjadwalkan, tidak memaksimalkannya tapi bisa turun itu termasuk gagal. namun ada kasus orang yang seadanya tapi berhasil mencapai angka yang sama dengan yang berusaha atau malah lebih banyak, turun 20kg. namun hasil tersebut karena dia sakit, apakah bisa dikatakan sukses walaupun mimpi/target dia tercapai? sepertinya tidak bisa dikatakan sukses

The speaker’s said that God wants people to critically thinking. he explains that many people usually believe the saying of the authoritative figures (ie. a sheikh, an expert or in the context of the surah that’s being discussed a rabi) this is based on assumptions that they’re already study intensely, and on top of that peoples don’t want to do the works (ie. thinking of the subject) because they’re occupied with other things (works, family, etc). This arguably an indicator that people don’t gives the subjects importance (in this context is religions). while generally the blame worthy is the authoritative figures. we’re still demanded to thinking for ourselves
