; This book discusses the problems faced by humans today, some of whom have lost their direction and grip on life.  They have run away from the real goal of life until they no longer know what the meaning of this life is.  The values ​​of life are deteriorating due to moral decline.

 Among the Muslims, there are those who follow the trend of those who have lost their grip on life, there are those who adopt a life system created by humans, there are those who maintain tradition until they fall into the trap of polytheism.

 The author of this book invites us to return to Islam because it is Islam that is able to give strength in going through the challenges of life
N2  - The growth of professions, and thus of professionals, is an important fact accompanying the division of labor in modern industrial society. "A society that industrializes," says a leading sociologist, "is a society that professionalizes." Professions, therefore, have a privileged position in social life. They are often given valuable attributes, such as providing altruistic services and having autonomy. Professionals are often appointed as the pioneers and guardians of democracy.

Terence J. Johnson considers all these attributes to be mere myths. By proposing an analytical framework as an alternative to the old approaches of trait theory and functional theory - he shows instead that professionals often become tools of exploitation. "Under present conditions, professionalism has declined," says Johnson, who works as a visiting fellow at the Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London
