CHAPTER

Are You a Manipulator?

We're living in a time of manipulation. And so we shouldn't allow ourselves to be psychologically manipulated by people that understand how to manipulate us. One of the ways that people are vulnerable to this internal manipulation is this tendency to mix likes and dislikes with judgments of good and bad. The Quran is telling us, maybe you like a thing and it's actually bad for you. And maybe you dislike a thing, it's actually good for you. So this is one of the way that you can reprocess your feelings and judgmentsby considering what is bad about what you like and what is good about what you dislike.
