Life Begins at 40

 

You've heard the famous saying goes that reads new life began at the age of 40 years. Age 40 years is unique and often interpreted differently by other age. The mystery of the age of 40 years more interesting to observe. Moreover, the increasing sophistication of technology and the rapid advancement of research on the human brain, researchers found unique things related to the age of 40 years.
Allah specifically in his word in Sura Al-Ahqaaf: 15 says about the age of 40 years and teaches a prayer for anyone who enters the middle age. The question arises why the age of 40 years, why not 30 years or 50 years or why not instead of any other age. And what God calls in his book nothing is wasted. Moreover, if mentioned specifically, then there must be a deep wisdom and lessons behind it all.
This question is more prominent when get the fact that the age of the Prophet Muhammad was 40 years old when sent. This is certainly not a coincidence that without meaning. 40 years of age is a phase which is mentioned specifically in the Qur'an at Al-Ahqaaf: 15 which means
"We are commanded to man in order to do good to his parents, his mother conceived him with difficulty and with difficulty gave birth anyway. Mengndungnya the weaning of him is thirty months. So when he adulthood and old to 40 years He prayed "O my Lord, tunjukilah me for ingratitude towards you that you have given me and to my parents and that I may do charitable pious that you ridhai: Give kindness to me with (give goodness ) to children granddaughter. Verily I repent to You, and indeed I am among those who have surrendered. "(QS. Al-Ahqaaf: 15)
If you notice the above letter eat God clearly calls 40 years and there is a prayer that God teaches that age. And in the study of psychology and brain research found something special related to the age of 40 years.
Special about the age of 40 years is also strengthened by new scientific discovery which confirms that the human brain reaches maturity at the age of 40 years. This study confirmed the truth conveyed in the Qur'an 14 century ago.
Results of this research is new to the world of science, because many scientists previously believed that the perfection of brain development occurs in the 20s. Their belief is also strengthened by various tests they did. What they believe to be refuted by new research which is of course the result is more accurate because it uses equipment and more sophisticated methods.
This study confirms that brain development continues until the end of the 40s of the human lifespan. Telegraph newspaper published articles related to the study entitled "Actually brain development continues until mid-age of a person". The article mentions that you might think that you will be fully mature in thinking when you were age 21 years. But recent research shows that your brain does not stop its development until the end of the age of 40 years.
The age of 40 years is often associated with a person's maturity and stability of the concept itself. So that people will tend to be difficult to change both thought and behavior above this age. Age 40 years according to psychologists is the age in which man actually left the youth and turning up the full adulthood or middle age.
Usually there is a psychological reaction that would accompany this age. And diambill reaction depends on the meaning of one's life. The first gesture of helplessness, despair, disappointed in yourself and look at life as a process that is difficult to understand and do. Both feel trapped in routine life and sink to despair but are not able to deal with the routine. Among other characteristics, can not accept the process of aging. For example excessive dress to cover her mistress.
The third is to choose to grow and considers that every part of life is a critical time to grow and mature. So he was always optimistic and take advantage of what you have, felt that a new life begins at the age of 40 years.
In many countries and isntansi age of 40 years to be a requirement for certain strategic positions. Such as heads of state, directors and so on. The new communities themselves tend to recognize the accomplishments of someone steadily when the person is 40 years old. President Sukarno became president at the age of 44 years, Suharto became president while 46 years, John F Kennedi 44 years, Bill Clinten 46 years, Toni Bler became British prime minister was also at the age of 44 years.
Meanwhile, in view of the age of 40 years of Western psychology is often associated with a second puberty. Namely the emergence of a new turmoil and search for identity. The striking thing in this second puberty is different from previous performances. For the men became very concerned about the appearance, in a neat and nechis.Tingkah behavior has undergone a change, be people who are looking for attention and charisma of the opposite sex. And unfortunately, this view seems to be the justification for naughty behavior.
Islam mendang age of 40 years as the age of a very sufficient to achieve existential intelligence. Where a person has been very understanding its existence as a creature of God on earth. At this age a person should no longer think about the world, but much to think about his fate in the Hereafter. certainly not only about himself but also about his wife and children. Like the time, people are entering the age of 40 years like entering a time Asr or dusk. shortly before the sunset.
At that age people have to be vigilant, introspective on the activities of worship to God. He emphasized to boost or at least maintain the good deeds that have dibiasankannya at an earlier age. Not even the elders taro, the more his parents become. It surah Al-Ahqaaf is most correct and proper instructions followed by the age of 40 years. Age is referred to as the age of human maturity in various aspects, mature spiritually, intellectually mature, mature emotionally and socially mature. Maturity of the human person that is later gave birth to consciousness and correct tendency as hinted at in the verses of Al-Ahqaaf.
The first is awareness to always be grateful. 40 years after God has given life, joy has many He felt bitter and bitter life has also been quite considered to be a lesson. That's when people should start to realize how big the gift of God that was given to him either directly to him, and to his parents. Realize how time-third of life remaining is not enough to atone for his sins. Grateful to God primarily perform the prayers five times a day semalan.
The age of 40 years should rearrange the journey of life. Menyadakan back our existence as a servant of God who served him. Looked back at the road that leads us at the road and His good pleasure. For those who make a living by means of falsehood, choose the good, marry lawful manner according to the rules, bonding dankeluarga to God, stay away from illegal and misguided actions that stated by a government. It's been 40 years, if not arrived also its time, this ride was little left to be run in the correct direction and the plot.
