The document discusses the Islamic concept of adab and its application to relationships. It addresses:
1) Adab refers to good manners, refinement, etiquette and propriety that indicates justice and sense of proportion.
2) Education begins with parents and teachers who nurture and discipline children, though the ultimate goal is knowledge.
3) Islam commands gratitude and obedience towards parents and teachers who are responsible for one's tarbiyyah or training when young and attached to desires. This lays the foundation for acquiring knowledge later in life.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
