The difference on our thinking

"O you who believe! obey Allah and obey the Apostle and those in authority from among you; then if you quarrel about anything, refer it to Allah and the Apostle, if you believe in Allah and the last day; this is better and very good in the end." (An Nisaa' 4 : 59)

It's not always our thinking is same with others' thinking. We think like this while others are thinking like that. However, in this world for muslims, we have the same standard to look at something whether it's right or wrong, good or bad. That standard of life is based on the aqidah and syari'ah (rules of Allah). Anytime we have different view with others, just return back to this! As long as the difference is not thing that against Allah's rules and it's still permitted in Islam, so just keep moving with our thinking that we consider it's right based on the strong source of laws in Islam. 



However, if we realize that our thinking is wrong and the others' is right, so just keep in mind that we should correct our thought. We can learn by ourselves to find the true or learn from others who have found it. This is because the right things are not always come through ourselves, but sometimes Allah gives the true through other people and all what we have to do is taking that. Actually ourselves and others are just mediators to get the true from Allah. So ask the guidance from Allah to show as the truth as truth and hope we can do it. Likewise, show as the wrong as wrong and hope we can leave it. The way how we get it can be by our own learning or by learning from others. Wallahu'alam bishshowab.
