Thinking after Writing?
I was told an interesting story once. One of my friends gave a book to his colleague who belongs to a religious party. My friend told him that the author has changed his opinion related to some issues. His colleague immediately asked, "Does this author write without thinking?"
When he told me this story, I said, "The author is one of those people who continue to think after writing." This mentality is a rare commodity in our society. It was an amazing fact for that religious person that a scholar can leave his pervious opinion for a better one.
It is a fact that intellect and wisdom is the greatest blessing of Allah. A person can differentiate between right and wrong paths by using his / her intellect. Quran invites human beings to think again and again. It is possible that a person may conclude something wrong due to lack of information or a mistake in his / her thinking process. In that case, if that person stops thinking further, then what will happen?
According to a famous poet, "I stay for ever at the place where I have reached." Staying at the wrong place is not a problem for that poet but it is a big problem for a religious scholar. A God-fearing scholar cannot stay at his stance if he knows his mistake or finds a better opinion.
