        The Meaning of the Angel's Prostration

Ibn Jarir reported that Muhammad Ibn Sirin said that the first one to reach a conclusion by reasoning was Iblis and that the sun and moon were not worshipped except through this method. This means that Iblis tried to compare himself to Adam. He believed that he was more honorable than Adam. Therefore he abstained from prostrating even though ALLAH had commanded him to do so, just as HE had commanded the angels.


If an analogy is made we see that Iblis is vain. For indeed clay is better than fire because in it can be found the qualities of calmness, clemency, perseverance, and growth; whereas in a fire can be found heedlessness, insignificance, haste, and incineration. Iblis tried in vain to justify his refusal:

Shall I prostrate to one whom you created from clay? Iblis said: See? those whom you have honored above me, if you give me respite (keep me alive) to the Day of Resurrection, I will surely seize and mislead his offspring(by sending them astray) all but a few! (Chapter 17:62 Qur'an)

"EDUCATION"What is the purpose behind this word"EDUCATION''?Everybody thinks different from other,so my opinion will be different from others.For me EDUCATION is very important for every person who is ALIVE,Yes,I said ALIVE I used this word because a DEAD person wouldn't need any EDUCATION. So,We should do for our best before we would DIE ,Because DEATH is reality of life rather he is Muslim or non-Muslim. EDUCATION is not only to" HIT THE BOOKS'' for scoring 99 percent marks in BOARD EXAMS.It should be get to open the minds of a person and giving him knowledge to think about himself and others.EDUCATION should be like that one would become to recognize himself and learn to solve the problems of life which a person would face when he will enter in PRACTICAL LIFE.

 Education is not the property of anyone. Everyone could get it. Nowadays, it has become very easy through the internet to get free knowledge of anything. But only for those, who want to get this light.   As Quaid said  "Education is a matter of life and death to our nation. The world is moving so fast that if you do not educate yourselves you will be not only completely left behind but will be finished up" Without education, it is complete darkness and with education it is light. Education is a matter of life. Allama Iqbal said "Be aware of your own worth, use all of your power to achieve it. Create an ocean from a dewdrop. Do not beg for light from the Moon, obtain it from the spark within you. Inner experience is only one source of knowledge.
