Our society is often characterized by its quest for newness and change. This is seen in the latest trends in fashions, home furnishings, automotive design, and what is popular in music. Magazines feature lists of "what's in, what's out, what's hot, what's not." Contrast this with some fundamental features of Islamic culture—the repetition of daily prayer, the frequent hearing of the words of the Qur'an, and how the repetition of phrases and images is comforting to hearers. What in your own life is repetitious yet is meaningful and brings comfort? Reflect on ways you might enhance this aspect in your life.
