Abstract

Every human being is endowed with physical and spiritual elements. The physical element comes from the ground. Meanwhile, the spiritual element comes from His Spirit. The physical element has needs called biological needs, while the spiritual element also has needs such as advice, dhikr, prayer and worship. Between the physical and spiritual elements, both of them can influence each other. When the physical influence is stronger then the spiritual element will dim. However, if the spiritual element is stronger, then the spirit will strengthen the body. To live a human life requires intelligence. Because it is with intelligence that humans can live and live life in an orderly and directed manner. Allah created man with a mind, so that with human reason he could think about what was right and what was wrong, that was intellectual intelligence.
