Ramadhan Reminder - Juz 1

JUZ 1 -Surah Al Baqarah Ayah 67 (Incident of a cow.)

In this ayah , Allah commanded to slaughter a cow but the people of #Musa a.s first response was , "Are you kidding me? A murdered just happened and now God response that we should slaughtered a cow ?"

"Qoluuuu At tahizuna huzwaa "
This is ridiculous, they said.
 

Why this is mentioned & what we could we learn from this incident?  #Allah make a point  to mention what their reaction was to Allah's instruction. They questioned Allah's command and mocked His words. Whether it is logical or not , it is God command & validated thru his messenger Prophet Musa a.s.

This is mentioned because it is a timeless problem. To this date, people questioned #AlQuran , #hadith , #sunnah and make fun of it & still disbelieved

These kind of reactions would make Musa a.s extremely upset, so within the same ayah  He makes duaa to seek refuge from becoming " jahilin" .
The opposite of Jahil is Aqil. Aqil is someone who control his emotions while Jahil is someone who loses them.

This ayah isn't just about warning mockery to Allah's command but also a reminder to us not to lose our cool & temper when being mocked. (especially those who deliver  Allah 's message & try to do the work of Prophets e.g  ) .

May Allah protect us from being the people who make fun of His command and able to control our emotions and akhlak.
