Is the clock ruining your life?
December 11th, 2024 | Read Online | | | | Assalamu'alaikum, | When was the last time you truly enjoyed your prayers? | Or sat with your family without thinking about the next appointment? | I've been thinking deeply about how a simple invention - the mechanical clock - has fundamentally changed not just how we measure time, but how we experience life itself. | The more I reflected, the more I realized how this "innocent" device on our wrists and walls has impacted our spirituality, stressed our relationships, and affected our work and health. | In my latest article, "The Tyranny of the Mechanical Clock," I explore: | The fascinating history of how time was measured in Muslim societies (hint: it wasn't about 60-minute hours) Understanding Time as God's creation with multiple ways to measure it and appreciate it How "Muslim Standard Time" isn't about being deficient - it's about a different cultural wisdom Why malls and casinos deliberately avoid having clocks Practical steps to reclaim a healthier relationship with time
| This isn't just another time management article. It's an invitation to question something we've taken for granted and perhaps find a more balanced way to live in our rushed modern world. | | I'd love to hear your thoughts: How has mechanical time affected your life? | Sincerely, | | P.S. If this article resonates with you, please share it with family and friends who might be struggling with time pressure in their daily lives. |
