The hats system described in this book may sound gimmicky and lame, but it’s clever a shorthand mnemonic that helps people learn, remember and practice a good habit. Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it.

Six Thinking Hats and Islam

Islam does not need colors or hats to understand the truth, to think, to remember and feel gratitude to Allah. However, Islam always welcomes any positive strategies or ideas, which can help the human kind to understand Islam. The six thinking hats might not enable human to have the spiritual thinking skill but it can help from the other angle of Islamic perspective such as in producing new fatwas for the new problem without so much trouble with extreme argumentation which had happen in the past. This method also can help the Muslim to be together and settle the problem of Ummah which never success to be achieved in the past. This method may also helps the Muslim to be together to defeat the Kuffar especially the Zionist. The Muslim should not feel hopeless of finding the new strategies or ways to rise again as the honorable Ummah in the world.
