Mr. Dr. Jahan Al -Omran
A person lives in a world full of complex situations and problems that need an accurate analysis and a deep understanding to reach the right solution. Often it falls into the abyss of loss when he tries to understand the truth by realizing a part or parts of the situation or the image, and not the entire image, such as the director who gets angry with an employee late in the morning but is unaware that this employee must take care of his sick father, or the teacher who calls the student to laziness because he is weak in mathematics, but he overlooks the fact that the student is talented in music or sports.
The realization of the full image of the truth is not the easy task, but it is necessary to avoid bias in the ruling, and a task in making the right decisions so that our condition does not become the state of the six Indians when they differed in describing the elephant that they did not see with their own eyes before, so they touched it for the first time in their lives to get to know him, and on his essence, and after they finished his examination, each of them rose up as the first, so the first said: He touched the tail, and the second said that it was just like the wall when he touched the body only, and the third said that it was a dagger or a large spear because he touched the core, while the fourth found it just a snake when he touched the hose. As for the fifth, he said that the elephant is a fan when he touched one of the two ears, and when the role of the sixth came, he said it is only the trunk of a tree because he touched the huge foot of the elephant. They all made a mistake in getting to know the truth; Because they built their belief depending on part of the image or the situation only.
So we must learn how to read the situation accurately and comprehensively, and analyze the data completely before making any decision, or reaching any conclusion, that is, we have to study all aspects of the problem before us before reaching the right solution. Likewise, we must avoid taking improvised decisions and reckless opinions without scrutiny in all parts of the problem to make the right decision. Therefore, we should work to build sound relationships with others by respecting their different views, and understanding all the data related to a specific behavior from another person before issuing the judgment on it, whether this behavior is negative or positive. And all this cannot be achieved unless we realize the full image of the problem in front of us, it is the key to the truth.
