Action IV

Next to knowledge comes action. Right knowledge should be transferred into right action to produce the right result. Again and again no less then fifty times, The Qur-aan insists upon the knowledge to be followed by action.

Every action however insignificant produces a lasting effect, which is somehow recorded somewhere. So who has done an atom's weight of good will see it and who has done an atom's weight of evil will see it.

Islam being a positive n practical religon makes due allowance for human weakness n is prepared to forgive the slips of weak moments, provided there is no deliberate comission of serious offence. Moreover the formation of his character begins at much earlier stages of creation. The Supreme Being does not impose upon any soul duties n responsibilities beyond its ability to bear them. Faults of action may be mended with the aid of knowledge. But if a man positively rejects Truth n acts in his own way without the proper guidance of knowledge, his actions lead him to no satisfaction, ultimately he is likely to be lost in bewilderment. A realistic description of human floundering in ignorance.
