Morals are divided into two types. commendable morals and reprehensible morals. There are 17 quotes about moral values in the book Finally I Find True Happiness. Morals towards Allah Good morals to Allah are pleased with His laws both in sharia and He accepted it with open arms and did not complain. If Allah decrees something to a Muslim who is not liked by the Muslim, he feels pleased, accepting, and patient. He said with his mouth and heart: I am pleased with Allah as my Lord.

This obligation is not solely to be selfish or to abuse In human beings there are two elements, namely physical . and spiritual . In addition, humans are also endowed with reason that distinguishes humans from other creatures of God. Each element has rights where one and the other have obligations that must be fulfilled to fulfill their respective rights.

In fact, such actions are not good, because they can damage associations that were initially fine and become no longer good, so the practice of faith in oneself is very necessary to fortify oneself from these despicable deeds (Hasnil, 2. Based on the phenomenon that occurred, it can be assessed that the level of faith among the younger generation is starting to decrease. Even though faith here is the most important thing to be used as the foundation of personality. As explained in QS.

This may be a small example of the decadence of morality and also a proof that there are still many children who are disobedient to their parents.

We know and realize with all our hearts that living with our parents is a wonderful blessing, which cannot be replaced by anything else in this world. When our parents die, how sad our hearts will be because there is nothing else they can look to. Look at your parents with affection, do not look at them with angry eyes and speak loudly at them. In the Qur'an surah Al-Israa' verses 23-24. Allah SWT says: Meaning: Your Lord has commanded you not to worship other than Him and to do good to your parents. If one of them or both of them is old in your care, then you shall never say to them the word "ah" and do not yell at them, and speak to them good words.
