3Q TO ANSWER 3Q

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious Most Merciful

All praises be to Allah, the Lord Who sustains all things and set on all things. He is Alpha and Omega, meaning He is the One Who begins all things and He is also the One who puts an end to all things. He is the Only One worth worshipped, worth to be praised and to Him shall we make our return. Let us take every opportunity in life to make great relation and connection with Him because, He is always with us all time.

Salawat and Peace be upon the prophet, Muhammad s.a.w. and His Companions for the struggles to bring back people from the darkness(jahiliyyah) to the light of truth(siratal mustaqimm).

The topic, 3Q to answer 3Q may trigger numerous distinct thoughts among the readers. Basically, the topic intends to put forth the foundation for the Muslims as well as people around the globe to ponder over 3 important questions using 3 quotients. In motivational discourses, talks and so on, it is quite normal to listen to the motivator stressing about the need to fortify the three quotients :

• Intelligent quotient
• Emotional quotient
• Spiritual quotient

Well, yes, basically they are all important but for what reasons? Hmm… of course, some may say, all those things are important in order to face the challenge of the world, others may say they are important to lead happy and blissful life. I might say all the answers are true but quite superficial.

Let us get into more sobering thoughts. Actually, in any thing we do, there are three questions we need to always ask so to aware ourselves.

1. Where do we come from?
2. Why basically are we here?
3. Where are we heading to?

The answer that we give, base on the level of quotient that we have, may lead to the action that we may take. If the answers to all the questions are wrong, believe me, we are never to reach the destination happily and successfully. In essence, humans feel themselves lonely and live without any certain direction because they are in search of the answers to those questions. People try to do many freak things, to use their senses and brains to figure out the answers. Yes, basically, humans are dying for the answers but the incapability to get the correct answers make them to follow the answers they think are correct.( Eh, faham tak nih, pusing-pusing sikit, tapi macam tu la..)

Al-Quran and Hadith provide mankinds with the answer. There are many places in the Holy Quran whereby Allah mentioned:

(First and third question)

It is from Allah that we come and to Allah shall we make our return

For the second question :

In surah Al-Mulk , verse 2, Allah mentions that He makes us rise from dead to test who among us are best in conduct.

Surah Az-Zariyyat, verse 56,

“ Tidak Aku menjadikan jin dan manusia melainkan untuk beribadah kepada-Ku.”

Therefore, it is imperative to cling to the answers and work accordingly. Banyak orang tidak nampak jalan dan bertindak tidak seperti sepatutnya kerana mereka tidak faham matlamat hidup mereka.

So, how about us? We know the answers and do we will to become the same as the one who do not know. If we still act like people who do not know, then, we should remember that we are even worst than them.

Mari ambil masa untuk berfikir dan bertindaklah mengikut fikrah berlandaskan Al-Quran dan Hadith. Tidak ada nilai perkataan dan kata-kata melainkan ianya dilahirkan dalam bentuk amalan dan tindakan. Semoga Allah memimpin hati-hati ini kea rah jalan-Nya..

To deliver is to practise.
