Cheating refers to an immoral way of achieving a goal. It is generally used for the breaking of rules to gain advantage in a competitive situation. Cheating is the setting of reward for ability by dishonest means. And to fail is to repeat. There is a quote: “I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.” Sophocles.
For example let’s take a Doctor: If someone becomes a doctor, and to pass his or her medical exams, that person cheated. And then in professional life that person has a patient waiting for the doctor, whereas the doctor doesn't know what to do???... That is a big responsibility. This is how it becomes a big problem for that someone and the person suffering.
People may cheat and pass their exams but in the future they face difficulties. There is no use of education if cheated. People should not be afraid of failing; As Failing is just a step away from success.
“It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.”
Theodore Roosevelt .
“I didn't fail the test; I just found 100 ways to do it wrong.”
Benjamin Franklin
Basically, cheating destroys a person’s future. So it is better to fail NOW and see our weak points and try to overcome them instead of cheating and putting ourselves in danger or major problems. We should always remember that Allah S.W.T is watching us and is with us all the time even when we are sleeping.
Jazaka’Allah
