Two men were walking along one summer day. Soon it became too hot to go any further and, seeing a large plane tree nearby, they threw themselves on the ground to rest in its shade.
Gazing up into the branches one man said to the other:
“What a useless tree this is. It does not have fruit or nuts that we can eat and we cannot even use its wood for anything.”
“Don’t be so ungrateful,” rustled the tree in reply. “I am being extremely useful to you at this very moment, shielding you from the hot sun. And you call me a good-for-nothing!”
All of God’s creations have a good purpose.
Islam teaches us that we should never belittle Allah’s blessings.
Kadangkala sesuatu yang kita anggap tidak bernilai, adalah benda yang paling penting dalam hidup kita. Sesuatu yang kita abaikan dan anggap ia sebagai tidak berguna, hakikatnya benda itu yang paling bernilai dalam hidup kita. Begitu juga hakikatnya dengan manusia. Kadangkala manusia yang kita agung-agungkan, hanya mendatangkan kesusahan kepada kehidupan kita. Tetapi manusia yang kita pandang rendah, mereka inilah yang akan sentiasa membantu kita tanpa mengharapkan balasan.
Wallahualam :)
