Wednesday's Wisdom: What is Social Apprehension

Social apprehension is a behavior that prevents the progress of personal relationships and unity among people.

[Iblees] said, "Do You see this one whom You have honored above me? If You delay me until the Day of Resurrection, I will surely destroy his descendants, except for a few." Al Isra 17:62

"Clicks and crews" alleviate Social Apprehension
 Isolation, being extremely confrontational, paranoia of others and arrogance all are symptoms, causes or a component of social apprehension. Whether you are religious or not this behavior exists within society today. Everyone dream of winning, but how will you get there and with who. Progress is only achieved through effective reliable teamwork - having or even being a weak member, lower the team's chances in securing healthier futures. Enriched relationships between one another that are strengthened with a strong volition, purpose and determination can protect the team's intention.



"The basis of any good is sincerity...." Commentary on the 40 Hadiths of Al Nawawi (pg. 98)

Creating relationships are the essential keys to unlocking an effective social network's value. People who share the same interests, values and skills will point to an action. Social apprehension prevents this and is the complete opposite of a trust-worthy principle based-network or community. A network without infrastructure is bound to collapse, the lack of a strong backbone that re-enforces movement will only default. Inadequate communication between sites signals low morale, and when people are more accustomed to having an enjoyed conversation of malice and accountability is destitute  - hope for connectivity will not arise or be promoted directly.

A community can complain about disunity, but it is when individuals decide to counteract being social apprehensive with stimulating discussions and learning each others' self-interest. It's the collective interest that will suffice the mission and maintain a stamina in building communal infrastructures.

Here's a statement becoming more and more relevant "unhealthy families breathes unhealthy communities." It's difficult being an advocate for resolution among people, when dealing with social apprehension from within your own core. No real answer just simply keep working with good intentions, while avoiding misdemeanors and infractions; soon truth will surface.

"Your family will be your greatest trial"

As dismal as it may seem, societies and its people actually have an opportunity to achieve greatness. Good only begets good and Diamonds are born under Pressure; the first alteration should be who, "me" before trying to re-iterate another. Taking an active assessment of one's own history and accountability would resolve issues and could create that ripple effect in the water and spread viciously to alleviate apprehensive natures.

"Hang On to your Love" by Sade, the lyrics is battling an apprehensive nature. Contrasting a community, families and individuals. Plus this is who I was listening to while writing this blog-ver-sa-tion.

  1. Ironic that this is the post today because for my morning reading the subject was your toipc, the urgency of being united for progress and positive change, and the consequences if we are not.

    Sura Anfal, verse 73:
    "The unbeleivers are protectors one of another: Unless you (believers) do this (protect each other), There woulld be tumult and oppression on earth, and great mischief."

    To me this means that we have to work together to make a difference. Of course we have small victories from time to time by ourselves as individuals, but what good are they if they advance only ourselves??? Imagine how much more impacting it would be if we worked collectively and harmoniously together.

    Our faith mandates us to be unified for a reason. If we do not unify, we see what will be the outcome. I will pledge to get to know at least three sisters that I see in the masjid, but never say more than salaams to, insha'Allah.

  2. Human beings are social creatures, aren't we? Yes, God made us to be social, to exist within a community and progress as a community. So why do we think we can "make it" on our own?

    Great post...
