Silence seems like one simple thing, but it's not easy to realize it. The attitude of calm / silence and practice then speak according to the level that is sufficient (talking that matters only), often becomes the key to success of a person's condition to a situation that occurs and takes place around it. Of course speaking useful is the most valuable pearl.
In the book Muraqi Al-Ubudiyah that I have studied, explained there are seven silent benefits. Some scholars say: "actually in silence there are 7000 goodness, and 7000 goodness is gathered in 7 sentences, in each sentence it contains 1000 goodness".
The seven sentences are as follows:
- Silence: Worship without having to work hard and try
- Silence: Self-decoration without jewelry
- Silence: Authority/honor without power
- Silence: A fort without walls (always guarded without the need for a bodyguard)
- Silence: No need to apologize to anyone caused by words
- Silence: Charity recording angels break and not tired
- Silence: Closing the ugliness in terms of ignorance and lack of self [Source: Muraqi Al-Ubudiyah]
So silence is a characteristic of knowledgeable people, because silence gives us the power of great thinking deeply about what is happening around and can get full concentration on the rationality of an answer.
Silence is our chance to judge life. Silence is an opportunity to rest. Silence is a great power because by silence we have mastered the people who are before us through view.
Silence can be the most effective solution in dealing with life problems such as the problem of lightly stacked households. When it is tense, silence can give birth to a respectful attitude. On the contrary, resistance and debate can give birth to a distant and vindictive attitude. With silence, we have destroyed various enemy weapons.
Being silent is a good teacher so we learn to be good listeners. Where many people have lost this trait. Human safety lies in how he keeps his tongue.
Silence is golden
