Brother Mohd Zaidi starts its writing by arguing that reading and thinking as the central role in the development of a nation. He then quotes the speech of Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak whom addressed that the acquisition of knowledge would be easier once reading becomes a natural habit. Then he quotes the speech of Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi who urges universities to produce human resource whom could critically think on various issues. Then he relates both speeches to stress the importance of reading and thinking, also the culture of learning and knowledge.
He then highlights the faculty of discriminatory (al mummayiz) and bring the brief explanation between this term and its element of thinking process. He also brings the epistemology point of view in term of knowledge, knowing and thinking. Event though there is no definition of knowledge, the descriptions of the terms of knowing and thinking there is really beneficial and comprehensive.
He then described three important elements of thinking in accordance with the subject of ilm mantiq (Islamic science of thinking). The three are the material of thinking, the process of organizing and relating this material and finally the movement to the new unit of knowledge. All these elements are twisted by the thinking process. Therefore, he urges reading activities are critical in order to supply required information to smoothen this thinking process.
