Lust is a desire in the form of needs. Without a Lust in life, then people probably will not be able to live and thrive.
How could the man would live, if there is no desire to eat while eating is a necessity to survive in life.
Perhaps this ever happened to you. While you were lying on the bed, you laid limp as you felt the misery of a pain. Then the desire to eat will be felt less.
You know, buddy, when we ate something, it is a kind of impetus of a lust. The following is the essence of human nature., i.e. that it is the impetus of a lust.
Look at the animals whose daily activities is only filled with eating and mating. Because their creation is only given the gift of a lust. While in the creation of humans, they was also awarded a mind than a lust. In order so our mind controls our lust and not vice versa, i.e. lust controls mind.
If the desire or lust controls the mind, prepare yourself to see many irregularities that will happen. Ultimately, as the reults, there will be a lot of violence, strife, deceit, and so forth.
Mind and lust is one package that could not be separated from each other in human’s body. Because it is the Divine nature in the creation of human.
The presence of lust in human is something that must be fully guarded. Because it dares to oppose any provisions that Allah set, except the devils ride. Indeed, in the initial of its creation, it can be said that it had disobeyed the commands of Who had created it.
The following is a reflection of its creation. From the book by Usman Al Khaibawi:
It explained that Allah SWT had created a mind, then after creating a mind, then Allah SWT said to mind: "O mind, face to Me." Then mind faced in the front of Allah, then Allah said: "O mind, turn around!", then mind turned around.
Then Allah S.W.T. said again: "O mind! Who am I?".
Then the mind said, "You are the God who created me and I am Thy incompetent and weak servant."
Then Allah said: "O mind, I does not create a more noble creature than you."
After that, Allah SWT created lust, then after creating the lust, then Allah said to the lust: "O lust, faced to Me". Lust did not answer, otherwise it kept silence. Then Allah SWT said again: "Who are you and who am I?". Then lust said, "I am who I am, and Thee are Thou."
After hearing the answer, Allah was wrath and torment it in the hell jahim up to 100 years, and then Allah remove it. After the lust out of hell jahim., then lust was faced to Him, and Allah said: "Who are you and who am I?". Then lust said lightly as it did not feel how powerful the torture it suffered, "I am who I am and Thee are Thou."
Then Allah tormented lust in hell Juu for 100 years. In this hell, the lust felt how suffer it was and could not stand the torture it suffered. Once released from hell Juu, then Allah said: "O Lust! Who are you and who am I?". Finally lust acknowledged Him by saying, "I am Thy servant and Thee are my Lord."
Since lust dared to do so to the Lord, then it is not a surprising thing if it has mastered the human mind. There’s nothing to be regarded, except how to wreak it.
However, the best way to mute it is to disobey on it, i.e. by relying on mind for consideration of doing a thing. Then this can be said that mind is still able to control the lust within us.
