Entropy

ASSALAMU`ALAIKUM WARAHMATULLAH

Have you ever take Physics as one of your subjects (or perhaps, even better: major)? If yes, then understanding this entry will be a piece of cake to you. But if you haven't, no worry. I will explain the whole scenario anyway, regardless my readers intelligence. Democracy  is the key point here. So listen up.

Entropy

Entropy in Physics is like, the eternally conclusive hypothesis that explains the nature of energy in a closed or isolated system. It can be understood if we were to comprehend the Second Law of Thermodynamics: every isolated system will always have possibility for it to disintegrate. The dissipation potential is also known as entropy and by that, quite definitively, entropy can be simply put as how much can one system disintegrate.

A simple and classical example to this is leaving a cool glass of water in a hot room. By logic and mere understanding about temperature equilibrium, heat from the atmosphere will dissipate into the cold water and this is will cause molecules in the water to disintegrate into disorderliness. We can say that the water will have higher entropy then it was before. Now, I hope you have understood this, we're moving into the real deal.

Morality and entropy

I don't know what triggered me to once again write something in English. Maybe because of the multitude of scientific terms which I'm not quite fond with their Malay translations. Being taught in almost English-ly air, I couldn't help myself but to adore at its richness in vocabulary.

Now that you're well-versed about entropy, it shouldn't be too hard for you to execute the next part of the plan; to imagine. Now you don't have to close your eyes but to just imagine a child as an enclosed system and is left in a room (world). By time, will the kid turn wiser? Or will it be in the otherwise direction? Of course; even leaving a grown up alone in a closed room for a long time will cause them to be lunatic, let alone kids.

Somehow, consciousness-based on this simple experiment that is too risky of humanity to be done-does flow. It flows out from our body to 'somewhere unseen and inexplicable'. As we're exposing ourselves to a situation where consciousness is left unused, our consent can't work as it supposed to and like a cube of ice, it'll melt by time's arrow. The only way we can retain our consciousness is getting involved in a much thicker conscientious  community. Letting yourself alone in solitude will invite all sorts of evil, as your consciousness is oddly volatile.

This may explain why Prophet Muhammad prohibited one from being alone and stick to jam'ah. It also congruent with the fact that, kudos to Lev Vygotsky, one can learn better in a much better sociable situation. Maybe entropy does applicable in morality as you and I have just attempted to demonstrate, and this will make morality understanding to be more comprehensive and objective. 

Wassalaam~
