Why is man unsatisfied

          Why is man unsatisfied ?

Life has no pleasure without conviction or importance and value without satisfaction.

Life doesn’t narrow except in front of whom takes the greediness as a nature and the stinginess as a habit, and never live happy  except who takes the satisfaction as an ally.

So; when a human satisfied with what had fated, his mind and  heart will get rest , and who sells greediness by satisfaction will win with riches and wealth . But lose the peace of mind.

In this case, we can say : The wealthy is who becomes satisfied with GOD , and the poor is who needs people.

So ;  the good and pleasant life is satisfaction. But ,  the clinging just with hope ends up with misery.

As, satisfaction with acting make the poor wealthy also , the greediness makes the wealthy poor.

   Thus , a human must be satisfied , doesn’t greedy  or seer to what the others have or 
   desirous in attainment ( earning ) the money.

   However , a human had a nature disposed for stinginess, greediness, unsatisfaction and 
   the prophet ( peace be upon him ) had referred to that, he said : “If the son of Adam    
   had one valley full of gold , he will wish to have another”.

   Here, we ask : Is that because of a human unsatisfaction with what  he owns ? or , it is a 
   natural motive ? ..

   Since the eternity, GOD – The Great and Almighty – had foreordained that all humanity 
   must be examined.

   So, he made sons and money the adornment in the present life.

   Also, he put the Islamic law, then, human beings were being examined. And GOD will 
   honor – in the present life and afterlife – whom combats their desires, surmounts their 
   greediness and installs the mind a ruler on their inclinations.

   By this, the first exam to the humanity was when the System of life had completed on   
   the earth by blossom the first flowers in the humanity meadows, by ( Kabill ) and 
   ( Habill ) with their  sisters delivery.

   For Kabill when become a youth also his brother and sister, he disobeyed God’s order to 
   marry his brother twin and desired to marry his twin. There fore, his intention filled with 
   hated.

   So, he killed his brother Habill and his greediness brought sorrow grief and shame to him 
   Even if we turn over history sheets, we read the story of (Usof) – peace be upon him 
   –,his brothers threw him in a well for he was the best liked child to their father.
   So, they thought in driving him away in order to appropriate with their father’s care.

   In spite of that, man never takes a warning from the   preceding stories,  for mistakes is 
   still repeating.

   As in the people of Jews whom fought prophets and never responded to any prophet    
   coll. 
   They refused and denied Islam, in spite of its confirmation in their Holy Books, for 
   nothing except that the last calling (mission) was not by them and the last prophet     
   wasn’t of them .

   Once more, the unsatisfaction and the greediness are the first reasons in those crimes,  
   which had happened in the past and are still happening till know.

   So, if only we satisfied!.
   A lesson is following, another then man never takes a  warning that he never cares 
   except to more money, more sway and power, never satisfies or contents.
   A brother kills his brother for money. A friend hates his friend envy and jealousy and a 
   neighbor emulates his neighbor in his daily Bread.

   Yet today, we are in need to have the morality, which GOD had ordered to be 
   characterized, to return good and satisfied humans, to love the others and to accept to 
   the others only with what we accept to ourselves.

   But, how far! The fact is something other than this, and people differ,  some of them the 
   present life took their minds.

   So, they covet in it and go beyond the orders of GOD in enjoyment in it.

   Others, whom work for their life and afterlife, content with the lawful livelihood, which 
   GOD provides.

   So, they thank GOD when riches, and ask Him for provisions when in distress.

   That is the real satisfaction.
   And also, there are whom abstain from the present life, don’t looking for it. So, if it    
   laughs to them never be happy and also never feel sorry at any another condition, 
   perfectly convinced that the enjoyment of life and it’s adorns are transient, so, they 
   accept with what is necessary to live and are spending all times in worship.

   But, the laudable contentment and the real peace of mind are in getting ride of soul    
   liking and to throw the love of life out of heart .

   It is necessary to know that contentment is an honor and a grace, and greediness is 
   lowness and disgrace.

   So, never be astonished at an ascetic turned away from the life in this world, and adored 
   GOD in a cell, but, be astonished at that whom the present life became under his feet 
   but he turned away from it.
