  1. Transcendentalism

  2. Transcendentalism: • It Implies a belief that the spiritual reality , rather than the material world is the ULTIMATE reality.

  3. This Philosophy upheld : 1-The Goodness of Humanity 2-The Glorious of Nature 3-The Importance of free individual expression. 4- Transcendentalism maintained that an awareness of reality or a sense of truth , is reached through surmise rather than through reasoning or logic .

  4. So, we can get from Transcendentalism that it aims to improve the human life in all fields to built a happy utopian community. In this community everyone sympathizes , cooperates with each others.

  5. This philosophy emphasizes on the great role of individual in his life and his special thinking freely to develop the world.

  7. The Goodness of Humanity in Islam through Prayer ,Zakat and Fasting:

  8. 1-Pray :prayer purifies the heart and truly through prayer , a believer attains spiritual devotion and moral elevation

  9. A-Prayer not only gives a deep connection with God , but in prayer one establish patience, humility and sincerity . • B-Prayer provide a means • of repentance . • In the Call to Prayer (the Adhan), which is called from the Masjedfive times a day, the caller says these words: "Come to prayer. Come to Success." In the Call for the Morning Prayer, he even adds the phrase, "Prayer is better than sleep." There is really nothing more beautiful in a Muslim country to wake up in the morning to hear Allah's name being mentioned from every part of the city.

  10. This is portrayed through the following saying of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh): • “ If a person had a stream outside his door and he bathed in it 5 times a day , do you think he would have any filth left on him? • People said : “ No filth would remain on him what ever “.The prophet then said : • “That is like the five daily prayers” • Allah wipes a way the sins by them .

  11. 2-Fasting : Through fasting , a Muslim experience hunger and thirst, and sympathizes with those in the world who have little to eat over day. A-Through fasting increased charity . Muslims develop feelings of generosity and good will toward others. The prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said :” A man’s wealth is never diminished by charity.”

  12. B-Through self control , a Muslim practices good manners , good speech and good habits. Also, through family and community gatherings , a Muslim strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood in their own communities .

  13. 3- Zakat – Tithe

  14. “That which purifies “ is the giving of a fixed portion of one’s wealth to charity, generally to the poor and needy. The Benefits of Zakat: A-The first and the most important benefit of zakat is the purification of the (Halal) money . Once zakat is paid money becomes pure and in goes under the assurance of Allah suit.

  15. B- Zakat keeps the money flow inside society in balance and constant .Since the money inflow remains downward ,so the society finally reaches at the point to eradicate poverty , which is dream at modern economic gurus.
