Leave the Problem Pending

Leave the Problem Pending monotheism (tawhid), in the hopes that this formula would work and that some day the problem of the idols would be solved in due course, possibly without any direct intervention. This formula revealed in the Quran was apparently religious in its application, but it applies equally to secular problems. Based on the law of nature, it gives us a proper starting point, the most important aspect of any problematic situation. The right starting point leads you to your goal, while the wrong starting point leads you nowhere. Start from what is possible today and you will attain, by tomorrow, what is apparently impossible. All difficult situations have their problems, but at the same time there are always certain opportunities in-built in these situations. If you start your task by harping on your problems or obstacles, then it is like putting the cart before the horse. In this world there is only one starting point, and that is based on opportunities rather than on problems. Choosing to start with a problem is an act of emotional reaction, while launching out from the basis of opportunities shows great wisdom. It means: Start from what is possible today and you will attain, by tomorrow, what is apparently impossible. Leaving the problem pending is not inaction. It is, in fact, based on deep wisdom. By adopting this method you can save yourself from futile confrontation and can devote all your energy to achieving your goal. This formula is based on practical wisdom, and practical wisdom is the only workable formula in this world.
