Humans Are Social Creatures

Among us, of course, we will need each other, whether now or in the future. Therefore, it is only right for us to help each other for those who encounter difficulties. We were created by Allah SWT on this earth to interact with each other. One creature and another creature really need each other, because we are social creatures. Helping each other, helping each other, that is the core of religious teachings. So, in this case, the prophet also advised:

"Whoever is a Muslim who makes it easy for another Muslim, for his difficulties. Whoever makes it easy for his brother when his brother is in sadness, when his brother is in trouble, then Allah will make it easy for him when he is on the last day, or when he is on the Day of Resurrection."

We often encounter in our daily lives that sometimes we are in trouble, sometimes our friends are in need, either in material terms, or others.

When our brother is in trouble, then we are advised to go to him, to comfort him. One day our brother comes to us in a state of hardship, in a tight situation, then religion encourages us to help each other, to ease him.

Then Allah's promise, Allah will give him leniency both in the world and in the hereafter. The reward in the world when we easily help others, then when we are in trouble, others will never close their eyes, immediately to help us. That is the reward in the world. In the hereafter too, one day when we have returned to the hereafter, Allah will make our path easy. And also Allah gives guidance:

"Whoever covers the faults of his brother, Allah will cover his faults, both in this world and in the hereafter."

One day we find our brother lacking, whatever it is. Then it is obligatory for us to cover it. As humans, none of us are perfect. There are many shortcomings in ourselves, also in our friends, or in our brothers. It is appropriate for us not to expose our brother's shortcomings, let us not reveal his faults. If we know that they have shortcomings, be sure that we also have shortcomings.

If we know that we do not want to be criticized by others, then we should not criticize others. If our shortcomings are not known to others, then it is appropriate for us to cover up our shortcomings from others. Therefore, Allah's promise is that Allah will cover up all our shortcomings, as long as we are in this world and in the hereafter.

People who do not like to criticize, then others will also be reluctant to criticize us. That is Allah covering up our shortcomings. Then Allah will give a reward that is appropriate to a person, a person's actions, how he lives in this world, because we are indeed born in the world asked to interact with each other, help each other, love each other, love each other, give each other enlightenment when our friends are in trouble, so that an extraordinary harmony is created. Because that is our obligation, as long as we are in the world.

Hopefully it can be useful. If there are any words of mine that are wrong, I ask forgiveness from Allah, also not free from me as a human being who is never free from mistakes and sins.

Greetings always compact.
