People are like that, they either believe in this or that, and very few people can do not believe in anything. However, if one does not have the right beliefs, it is easy to be superstitious about things that are very vulgar and superficial. Even politicians who claim to believe in nothing go to great lengths to write their life's worth of deeds, with the aim of leaving a name for themselves in history and a hundred years from now, for people to praise them. It can be seen that there is no one who does not believe in anything at all.
Can a person find the right faith by studying on his own? The answer is not necessarily. Because the books that a person can see are actually other people's thoughts and perceptions, and if he does not understand himself, he will not be able to have true faith no matter how many books he reads. On the other hand, if a person is mindful of enlightenment, even if he is illiterate, he will still have the right faith. In a grand scheme of things, faith is a gift from the Creator. From a human point of view, faith is the crystallization of wisdom.
Because of the lack of correct faith, some people know how to make money all their lives, and they pin their happiness on money; Some people just want to go down in history, and they pay a lot of price for it. In fact, both types of people are victims of superstition. The first type of person is a person who has worked for nothing and has worked hard all his life, and in the end he has gained nothing; The second type of person is to coax himself, and it is difficult to say what is behind him, even if he leaves his achievements, it has nothing to do with him.
If we look at the stories of emperors and generals in history, when their beliefs are incorrect, their value judgments are incorrect, and they think that what they have left behind is a "good name", but in fact they are notorious. Those "great achievements" are worthless in the eyes of future generations, and will even be considered a huge loss, criticized and scolded. The Merciful Allah said: "Behind them is Hell Fire, and what they have gained is of no benefit to them." ”（45:10）
