Blood, Sweat and Tears

The 7 Deadly Sins

I can't reject it anyway

I can't even escape anymore

You are too sweet, too sweet

My blood sweat and tears

The mv itself is sinful enough

And someone said about the 7 deadly sins according to bible 

Greed

Sloth

Lust

Gluttony

Wrath

Envy

And worst of all, pride.

I'm a muslim.

I know very little of christianity

So I'm sorry if my readers, who i believe came from different races and religions, not agree with what I'm about to write

It is only my opinion

Who still, as a muslim, lacking in so many ways

I'm learning too, still learning and will always be.

Boy meets evil

How a person meets his own temptations

As a way of growing up

So those 7 deadly sins mentioned in the bible are not against islam

They are charateristics of a person can has, or could also be one person's intention based on his emotions 

Greed 

Excessive pursuit of material possession

Big houses, big cars and big rings
Worldly material that seems to never get enough
Being rich is not a sin
We are encouraged to work hard to achieve our dream, to fulfil our needs
But when the desire become strong enough that a person don't care about good or bad as long as he get the wealth, even he needs to destroy others to that matter, that's when things are going wrong
The evil wins.

Here a video that I love to watch regarding this matter: https://youtu.be/nFbhutAJHhI

Sloth

Excessive laziness or failure to act and utilize one's potential

Shows by jungkook in the mv, the way he swings and lays down on bed looking on the ceiling not doing anything 

Well, this is something I usually become
Especially on weekend
Although it heavily mentioned in the holy Quran;
'By the time. Verilyn man is in loss' [Al-Asr':1-2]
I usually say to my kids,"if you are lazy, I can't help you. Only if you are willing to learn then I'll be able to help you"
Sometimes, it is easier to say than done
Let's work harder!

Lust

Uncontrollable passion or longing, especially for sexual desires

I'm not married yet, can't say much on this
Moving on >_<

Gluttony

Excessive ongoing consumption of food or drink

Shows by rapmonster in the mv, the way he drinks and smokes and sings about food

Nowadays eating is not just to fill your stomach but more to luxurious means
Food porn, they said
Taking pictures before eat, dine out in expensive restaurant or hipster cafe, buffet style and so on
A question for us to ponder,"do you eat to live or live to eat?" ;)

Wrath

Uncontrollable feelings of anger and hate towards another person

Shows by jhope in the mv, the way he sings his part and shooting arrows
This may lead to murder in extreme cases
Even here in Malaysia, there's always murder cases on news frontpage due to hatred and jealousy
When emotions take over your rationality, it hurts...

Envy

Desire to have or experience that someone else possesses
Jealousy or hasad is a disease of the heart
In fact the first sin that was ever committed
When Allah said to the angels to bow down to Adam, Iblis (devil) refused because he was jealous to the honor that God gave to Adam
The devil said to God, "This one whom you have honored above me, if You give me respite to the Day of Judgment, I shall surely bring his descendants under my sway, all but a few" (Sura Al-Isra' verse 62)

Islam allows competition in goodness where people try to excel ad do things better, but without getting involved in hatred and jealousy and without wishing bad things for others
Why this make me think of the fanwars that are going on non stop in twitter
Like seriously...

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Do not be jealous of each other, do not boycott each other, do not hate each other, do not contrive against each other. Be all of you brothers to each other, O Servants of Allah.”

Pride

Excessive view of one's self without regard to others

Shows by Jin in the mv, at the end of the mv where he looks at the flower called narcisst and then he turns his face to the mirror and his face cracks
It's Jin, you know..the most confident man regarding his beauty :p
I mean, pride is good with the thing you believe in
Like I have pride about islam
No matter how sinful I became I believe islam is the best way of life
Just don't hate
That view of one self doesn't give us the right to drag others down
That pride, hold it for what really matters.

Now as I just learned there's hadith about 7 deadly sins in islam
So I better share it as well...

Narrated Abu-Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him); ‘The Prophet (SAWS) said: “Avoid the seven great destructive sins.” The people enquired; ‘O Allah’s Messenger! What are they?’ The Prophet (SAWS) said: To join others in worship along with Allah, to practise sorcery, to kill the life that Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law), to eat up usury, to eat up the orphan’s wealth, to show one’s back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting, and to accuse the chaste women, who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers.” (Bukhari).

7 deadly sins according to islam

The christians' 7DS focus on individual characteristics

While islam focus on how to protect islamic society as a whole

Watch this video if you want to learn more about this: https://youtu.be/OXa80iqZQqI
The video is the reason I wrote this post

Fuhhh why all this big talks on religion?
It is great, BTS did it again! They inspired us to learn more than our comfort zone

And Lumpen, the mv director, for being all artsy with these concepts

I am afraid at first, the concept is too deep and sinful for me but then I started to read

I used to think learning other's religion would shaken my faith

But instead, it strengthen up! Make me say I am a proud muslim.

Even I'm not a good muslim myself yet, but at least I would not just saying I am muslim because my parents are muslims too

I am muslim because I choose to be muslim, as a way of life.

Temptations are always there chasing you down
Like how the 7 boys make my life upside down
But still
Utilize them for our own good and not the other way around
Keep fighting!
