Why We Study So Hard?

So that we could do well and get into good class in school,
So that we would get good results in UPSR and go to a good school,
So that we would get good results in PMR and get a good stream in form 4,
So that we would do good in SPM and get a good scholarship,
So that we could go into a good college with the scholarship,
So that we would pass the university requirements,
So that we get entrance to a good university,
So that we would excel in every year in Uni,
So that we would graduate as a First Class Honors student,
So that we could get a good job and work well,
So that we could get promoted and get better pay,
So that we make more and more money,
So that we could make more and more money,
So that we could buy a big car and a big house,
So that we could continue to work and get more money,
So that we could pay for our children’s education,
So that we could pay for our children’s college,
So that we could pay for our children’s university,
So that we could die and leave a huge amount of money, our house and our car for our children?

So, think about it. Why do you take so much effort to study?
For your children or for yourself?
Or because Allah S.W.T.?


Al 'Alaq-Surah 96 (Verse 1-5) -Al Quran.

اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ
Read in the name of your Lord Who created.

خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ
Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood:

اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ
Read and your Lord is Most Honorable

الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ
Who teacheth by the pen,

عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ
Teacheth man that which he knew not.
