One first day, Al Ghazali was sitting among his students
He asked them six interesting questions
Tell me the nearest in our life
His students answered: Parents, teachers, and friends
Al Ghazali said: It is death
Allah said, Every soul shall have a taste of death
Tell me the farthest place from earth
His students answered: Moon, sun, and stars
Al Ghazali said: it is the past
No matter how hard we try, it is unreachable
Tell me the biggest thing on earth
His students said: Mountain and ocean
Al Ghazali said: It is passion
Because of it, we can be thrown into darkest pit of the hell
Tell me the heaviest thing on earth
His students answered: Wind, dust, and cotton
Al Ghazali said: It is leaving five times pray
We leave it because of our job or business
Tell me the sharpest thing on earth
His students answered: sword
Al ghazali said: it is word
Because people shall hate each other from words
