eating together

Yesterday, in psychology class, the professor talked about based on research and surveys, how eating dinner together in one key to happy families. They did quite number of surveys to see the effect of family or parents engagement.

I can totally agree to this and how it is parallel with what the Prophet taught us. The sunnah is, do not eat alone. Eat with a company. Eat together with other people.

Based on research, it can be either you are eating with family, or folks, that may help decreasing your level of   depression or eliminating the cause to depression.

Sounds cool, ay? They had to find this out for 10 years and make conclusion while for us muslims, it is already in the tradition that we believe in and we benefit very much by following this belief and tradition of the Prophet. Because God made us and He knew what the best for us. He is The Creator!

what is justice?

If somebody ask me, “what is justice?”, I would say “putting something in the right place”. If someone ask me, “what is environment?”, I would answer, “it is a place where people live and growing up. It can be either growing up physically, mentally, spiritually or intellectually”. Everybody may have their own definition in defining anything. In fact, in judging an act of justice or (in)justice, might not as easy as some people think. The fact that not everyone may agree of what is just and not. Each individual on this heart has different values on what they want to believe is right and wrong. Therefore, to fully understand the meaning of environmental (in)justice, it is crucial to analyze the definition of the terms critically.

what we mean by  ”meaning”. According to Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary Online (OALDO), “meaning” has been defined in few different contexts. In the context of feeling and experience, OALDO states “meaning” as  “the real importance of a feeling or experience” while in the other context, it states as “the ideas that a writer wishes to communicate through a book”. In redefining the meaning of “environmental (in)justice” this paper will look at the background of the environmental problem and analyze the conditions that make an environment just and unjust, the outcomes of both types of environments and what can be done in creating more just environment.
