American
researchers have found that working hard, persistently, and regularly
is associated with longevity. Researchers at the University of
California have discovered that people who love to work and aspire to
progress are more likely to live four more years than reckless ones who
waste their money on their lower desires. Besides, it’s been discovered
that disciplined people who are determined to achieve their goals are
happier and more stable than others because they stay away from illegal
drugs, intoxicants, and risks, an attitude that make them healthier. The
study has revealed that the awareness rate plays a role in the death
issue for it’s considered an influential factor on medical risks and
fortunes.
Prof.
Howard Friedman who conducted this study says: “aware people not only
have better health habits, but they also live in healthier environments
and have more secured jobs and their relationships are stronger and more
solid; there's evidence that people become more aware when they have
secure jobs and enjoy good marriages.”
The
study which was published at the “health psychology” journal has
emphasized the idea that being guided, persistent, and organised, in
addition towanting to attain a certain achievement are the most
important factors in man’s life.
Comment
Based
on the previous study, we can see that Islam guides us to all that's
useful for us in this world and in the hereafter for Allah, the almighty
urges us to work and even tells us that Allah will observe our work on
the Day of Judgment; Allah says in the holy Qur’an:
And
say: "Work (righteousness):,Soon will God observe your work,And His
Apostle, and the Believers:Soon will ye be brought backTo the Knower of
what isHidden and what is open:
Then will He show youThe truth of all that ye did."Tauba or Repentance: 105(Ibid)
Islam
also urges us to be ethical; in fact what countsmost on the Day of
Judgment is man’s morals and ethics and the closest people to Prophet
Mohammad, PBUH,in paradise are the most moral ones according to what prophet Mohammad, PBUH, told us.
Islam
also forbids drinking wine and intoxicants and chasing lower desires,
as well as futility, idle tales, and back biting and commands us on the
other hand to be modest and work hard and most importantly to work
sincerely and to the best of ourcapacities. Accordingly, we can say that
the teachings of Islam are in harmony with science and mind unlike the
claim that Islam contradicts science and mind.
