Malaysia will become a great nation when Malaysians are great people. Great people are those that have great mind and soul. Those with great mind and soul with do great works. Great works are works that lead to good to mankind in this world and hereafter. Allah is great and none is great except Allah and to make men become great they must have association with Allah. In order men to have association with Allah they must attained the qualities that Allah loved. Allah love good qualities and Allah wants those good qualities that He loved to be acquired by men.Is good qualities precede good work or good work precedes good qualities. In other words do we need good qualities before we can do good work or we do good works then we will acquire good qualities. We are not borne with good qualities but we have to acquire the good qualities. In order to acquire the good qualities we have to do good work. Malaysia will be a great nation when the people have great qualities and the Malaysian will acquire the great qualities when they do the great work.
The world is a place where men have been ordered by Allah to work. Allah ordered men to works in this world to acquire good qualities that Allah want and at the times Allah also allows men to work to acquire their material needs. Instead of working hard to acquire good qualities men seems to work hard to earn only their material needs. Generally men work so hard to earn the material needs and have no time to acquire the good qualities that Allah want. Is Allah not providing men with all the material needs that men want? Do men really have to work that hard to earn their basic material needs. Allah has created the animals and the animals also have some basic material needs but the animals seem not to work that hard to earn their needs when compared with men. The birds and the cats simply fly and move around and their material needs are met. Allah has created men so that men becomes the best creation of Allah but Allah does not create the animals to become the best creation but the animals are created to serve men and men are created to serve Allah.

Allah has provides all the materials that men needs as Allah has provides all the animals with their material needs. While animals are not ordered to work to earn their needs but men are ordered by Allah to work in order to earn their needs. Men are tested by Allah so that Allah knows who is good in their actions in this world. Although Allah provides all the needs of men but Allah still ordered men to works in order to have their needs fulfill .Men should work to earn their needs because it is the order of Allah and the intention of working should only to please Allah. Good qualities come after doing great works. Great works is the work of calling people to Allah and to the orders of Allah. The Muslim must be reminded about Allah and the orders of Allah and the non Muslim must be invited to accept Allah as God and Muhammad as the Prophets of Allah. When Malaysians do the great works then good qualities will comes to their life. All good qualities start with having good and strong faith in Allah. When Malaysians have good faith in Allah then they will have good actions either towards Allah or towards mankind. When all Malaysians have good actions then Malaysia will become a great nation.

Great nation have great peoples doing great works and have great qualities. When Malaysian move around the world they will move around the world doing the great work, with their great qualities and whoever encounters and associates with them, they will get benefits. Great peoples are the peoples who do great works. Without doing great works ones cannot becomes great people and great people are the people with great qualities. Allah is great and whoever Allah loved Allah will give them great qualities and make them great. Allah will love the Malaysians once they all do the great work of calling people to Allah and the orders of Allah. The Muslim must be reminded about Allah and the orders of Allah and the non Muslim must be invited to accept Allah as God and Muhammad as the Prophets of Allah. The requirements of the great work are only times and Malaysians should spend part of the times that he has assigned for work to do the great work. Malaysians should not spend all the times that he has assigned for works to earned material things only but he should also spend some time to earned the good qualities. Malaysians do not become great people by having great buildings, great roads and eat great food but Malaysians will become great people when Malaysians have great qualities. Allah loves those who have great qualities and men also love those with great qualities. When Malaysians have great qualities they becomes loveable peoples and Malaysia will become a great nation.
