Introduction
Assalam o Alleyykum
[Peace be Upon You]
Brothers and Sisters! Allah is Lone Entity.
Human mind wants to explores:
o Who is Allah?
o How He looks like?
o How existence of Allah came into being?
o What are Allah’s attributes, qualities, powers?
o If Allah is Rehman and Raheem then why people suffer i.e. natural catastrophes: earthquakes, storms, eruption of volcanoes etc.
o As Allah cannot be seen then what is the proof and evidence that Allah exists?
o How Allah is in control of everything?
Brothers and Sisters! I believe you are aware of Professor Stephen Hawing who is a physicist based at London in England.
There are a lot of question which emerge about the existence of Allah. The answer to this question is given by a renowned Philosopher Aristotle
.
Scientists, especially Physicist, make a lot of research of the universe and try to establish how every creation came into being e.g. sun
, moon
, stars
, galaxies
, planet
etc. In other words, they want to know the answers how the universe
came into being.
Hazrat Adam (PBUH) is the first human being who has been created by Allah Himself (SWT) and thereafter Hazrat Haw’wa (RTU) was created from the Rib of Hazrat Adam (PBUH). The circumstantial evidence depicts that Hazrat Adam (PBUH) and Hazrat Hawa’a (RTU) had seen, met and had conversed with Allah (SWT). So when they were sent in this world they briefed their offspring that Allah is Lone Entity, He (SWT) has created the universe and He is in control of everything. In fact Hazrat Adam (PBUH) reminded His offspring that Allah is Lone Entity where every soul had meeting with Him (SWT) and seen Him (SWT). How? This point shall be dealt with later in this article.
With the passage of time the human mind started wondering that if the universe, mankind and all that what is in the universe has been created by Allah then how the Entity of Allah came into being and how He (SWT) can be in control of everything.
The concept of Allah was and is such an issue that human mind could not and cannot find a rational answer how the Entity of Allah come into existence, so the thoughts emerged in minds that concept of Allah is just a fantasy. (Nauz Billah)
Brothers and Sisters!
- Professor Stephen Hawking is Physicist. I have browsed his biography on the network Google. Being a physicist he also must have made research in the Existence of Allah. He delivers lectures. He delivered a lecture in 2005 titled: Origin of Universe.
- First he talks about the questions about the mankind. As below is the extract:
This creation myth, like many others, tries to answer the questions we all ask:
- Why are we here?
- Where did we come from?
The answer generally given was that humans were of comparatively recent origin, because it must have been obvious, even at early times that the human race was improving in knowledge and technology. So it can’t have been around that long, or it would have progressed even more. For example, according to Bishop Usher, the Book of Genesis placed the creation of the world at 9 in the morning on October the 27th, 4,004 BC. On the other hand, the physical surroundings, like mountains and rivers, change very little in a human lifetime. They were therefore thought to be a constant background, and either to have existed forever as an empty landscape, or to have been created at the same time as the humans. Not everyone, however, was happy with the idea that the universe had a beginning, even at early times. that the
- Then the Professor Hawking gives reference of great Philosopher Aristotle
of over 400 BC which denotes that the universe had existed forever and there was no Creator of universe. As below is the extract of the lecture:
For example, Aristotle, the most famous of the Greek philosophers, believed the universe had existed forever.
Something eternal is more perfect than something created.
He suggested the reason we see progress was that floods, or other natural disasters, had repeatedly set civilization back to the beginning. The motivation for believing in an eternal universe was the desire to avoid invoking divine intervention to create the universe and set it going.
Conversely, those who believed the universe had a beginning, used it as an argument for the existence of Allah as the first cause, or prime mover, of the universe.
If one believed that the universe had a beginning, the obvious question was what happened before the beginning? What was Allah doing before He made the world? Was He preparing Hell for people who asked such questions?
The problem of whether or not the universe had a beginning was a great concern to the German philosopher, Immanuel Kant. He felt there were logical contradictions, or antimonies, either way. If the universe had a beginning, why did it wait an infinite time before it began? He called that the thesis. On the other hand, if the universe had existed for ever, why did it take an infinite time to reach the present stage? He called that the antithesis. Both the thesis and the antithesis depended on Kant’s assumption, along with almost everyone else, that time was Absolute. That is to say, it went from the infinite past to the infinite future, independently of any universe that might or might not exist in this background. This is still the picture in the mind of many scientists today.
Brothers and Sisters! In short, the theology of Physicists is that, the universe was not created; it has been in existence as it is from eternity.
For the sake of argument, if they believe that the universe was not created then they will have to admit the existence of Allah (SWT).
How?
Brothers and Sisters!
Philosopher Aristotle says:
Something eternal is more perfect than something created.
So if the philosopher and Physicists can believe that universe has been in existence forever then why they cannot believe that the Entity of Allah has been in existence forever and perfect in every respect.
Scientists believe that time is ‘absolute’. The extract of the lecture is:
Both the thesis and the antithesis depended on Kant’s assumption, along with almost everyone else, that time was Absolute. That is to say, it went from the infinite past to the infinite future, independently of any universe that might or might not exist in this background. This is still the picture in the mind of many scientists today.
The context and substance of the above extract implies that scientist believe in infinite past and infinite future.
This is what is the concept of Allah is that there has been no beginning and there will be no end. If they can attribute this theology to the existence of universe, then why they cannot attribute this theology to Allah (SWT)?
Surah Al Hadid Ayat no. 3
He (Allah) is the First (nothing is before Him) and the Last (nothing is after Him), the Most High (nothing is above Him) and the Most near (nothing is nearer than Him). And he is the All- Knower of everything.
Crux of the matter is that, in fact, philosophers and scientists
do not want to believe in the existence of Allah. Why? Because if they believe that universe had a beginning then they have to believe in the Creator of the universe who can be no other than the Entity of Allah (SWT). This view is reflected in the following extract of the lecture:
The motivation for believing in an eternal universe was the desire to avoid invoking divine intervention to create the universe and set it going. Conversely, those who believed the universe had a beginning, used it as an argument for the existence of Allah as the first cause, or prime mover, of the universe.
If one believed that the universe had a beginning, the obvious question was what happened before the beginning? What was Allah doing before He made the world? Was He preparing Hell for people who asked such questions?
ACCOUNTABILITY
Brothers and Sisters! The question arises why human mind do not want to believe in the existence of the Entity of Allah (SWT)?
The main reason why human mind does not want to believe in the Lone Entity of Allah (SWT) is that consciously and unconsciously he is afraid of ‘accountability’ on the Day of Judgement.
Ayat Accountability
Anbiyya e Karam have revealed that on the Day of Judgement every human being will have to be accountable for his deeds in the Court of Allah. If his deeds were good then he will live in Paradise and if his deeds are bad then he will have to live in Hell.
Translation Surah Az Zalzalah
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
When the earth is shaken with its (final) earthquake.
And when earth throws out its burdens.
And man will say: “what is the matter with it:”
That day will declare its information (about all that happened over it good or evil)
Because your Lord will inspire it.
That Day mankind will proceed in scattered groups that they may be shown their deeds.
So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or small ant) shall see it.
And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shell see it.
Human beings want and like to enjoy life by opposing the Guidance of Allah i.e. to satisfy their Sensual Appetite. Now the thought of accountability refrain them to seek enjoyment. So, for this reason they want to get away from the thought of accountability and they can only get away from the thought of accountability if they repudiate the concept of the Lone Entity of Allah.
INVISIBLE CREATIONS
Brothers and Sisters! However, let us see that there are many aspects of life where human mind accepts, admits the existence of invisible things which he cannot see. Let us look at some examples:
Force, Power
Brothers and Sisters!
- Every human being has a body structure which is made of many parts: arms, legs, head, eyes, eyelids etc.
- To move any part or limb of the body there has to be a power, force. When one is walking, moving hands, picking up something, pushing something he uses his force and power.
- One can see the hands are carrying
something, hands are pushing something, but they do not see the force and power which is the cause of picking up or pushing something.
- When one is dead
the body has all the parts and limbs but they cannot move. Why? Because there is no force or power left in them.
Brothers and Sisters! In view of the above if human mind can believe that force and power are in existence which a human eye cannot see then is this not possible Entity of Allah exists Whom a human eye cannot see?
Pain
Brothers and Sisters! Pain emerges when:
- body is hit
by an object
- an injury
is sustained
- when nose
and mouth
are held tight and oxygen cannot be inhaled
- etc.
When any of the above things happen, one can see that the person is in pain but he cannot see pain nor it can be smelled like a fragrant. However, the person’s face expressions
are depressing or if he is crying
, the other person gathers that he is in pain because the theory is that when somebody is hit or sustains an injury then the pain emerges.
Brothers and Sisters! Now, if the human mind accepts this theory that when somebody is hit or sustains injury then pain emerges, then why the human mind cannot accept that the force behind the produces from earth, mountains, seas, heavens is Lone Entity of Allah Whom a human eye cannot see.
DEPENDENCE
Brothers and Sisters! It is law of nature that existence of one thing depends upon many other things. If any one of the things is missing, then thing cannot come into existence.
Brother! Let us take the example of an apple how it comes into being.
Brothers and Sisters! The origin of apple is ‘seed’ of apple. Let us look into the processes through which the seed has to go through before it turns out to apples.
- Seed has to be sown
in land. If the land had not been in existence then seed cannot be sown.
·
Land has to be fertile. Unless land is fertile seed will not grow.
·
Land has to be ploughed i.e. dug
to a certain depth where seed can be placed.
If the seed is left on plain land it will not grow.
·
Once the seed is sown then it has to be watered regularly. If it is not watered
regularly, the land will go dry and the seed will not flourish.
·
Seed needs different temperatures
within the cycle of day and night
. If it continuously receives the sun rays
which are hot,
it will burn and that is the end of it. And if it remains in cold i.e. at night
there is no sun, then it will also go dead. So during day and night the temperature varies which depends
upon the height of the sun. The variation in the temperature helps seed to grow.
Brothers and Sisters! This theory is supported by the fact that no produce grows in North and South Poles.
Brothers and Sisters! When all the
above requirements are met then the seed starts to grow and has to go through
the following processes:
·
first stem emerges
·
thereafter:
o
branches emerge on the stem
o
leaves emerge
o
matter emerges on the branches which will turn into apples
o
apples start growing
o
properties are inflicted i.e.
§ taste
§ flavour
§ sweetness
§ cure element
i.e. which can keep the body healthy
§ acids
§ etc.
o
plucked from the tree
o
brought in the market and eventually reaches the consumer
Brothers and
Sisters! Now you can see that produce of
apple depends upon uncountable things and if a single one is missing apple will not grow.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Similarly, the existence
of all
other things also depends upon many other things. So there
has to be an ‘Entity’ who controls each and everything and who is not dependent upon any other source or force.
Brothers and
Sisters! In this scientific age, everything is attributed to ‘Nature’ on the basis
that universe has not been created but it has been
in existence forever and will remain
forever:
For example, Aristotle, the most famous
of the Greek philosophers, believed the universe had existed forever:
Something
eternal is more perfect
than something created.
Brothers and
Sisters! The concept that universe
has been in existence for ever, it has to be construed that it will remain forever, because if something has an end that is a ‘creation’ and not eternal.
Note:
Brothers and
Sisters! There is also a theory that this world
has to come to en end. Scientists have worked
out the time when everything within earth and heavens will be destroyed. As below is the extract from the news published in a newspaper.
Doomsday clock is moved one minute further AWAY from fateful midnight…
thanks to Obama
By Claire Bates
Last updated at 6:10 PM on 14th January 2010
The minute hand of the famous Doomsday
Clock has
been moved to six minutes to midnight – one minute further away from human
annihilation than before.
The timepiece in New York conveys how close
humanity is to catastrophic destruction, which is represented by midnight.
It is changed periodically by the Bulletin of Atomic
Scientists board, which includes Professor Stephen Hawking and 18 other Nobel scientists.
Brothers
and Sisters! Now, if
the theory of Doomsday is correct
i.e. everything in universe along with human beings will be destroyed then what will happen? There will
be mixture of innumerable substances. Will it not be the same situation
what was before the Big Bang?
Will this mixture of substances not roam
around for millions of
years and
another Big Bang will occur and another universe will
come into existence and it will go on forever and
forever?
Brothers
and Sisters!
This theory reveals that there is life after death.
Once everything will be destroyed at the occurrence Doomsday then the mixture of innumerable substances will roam around for million of years and one day another Universe will be created and human life will come into being and it will go on and on and on.
Brothers
and Sisters! In
other words the existence of universe is ‘Natural’
phenomena where everything has come into being ‘naturally’
and properties in everything have been inflicted naturally and there is no force behind it.
Brothers
and Sisters! So far
as the discoveries of the elements of universe are
concerned, human mind has attributed this to his faculties: abilities and capabilities where he observed the
elements of universe, made research and carried out experiments.
With the help of scientific
technology, man has
set a foot on the moon,
established Space station,
invention of Hubble telescope through which the properties of the elements of
universe are exposed, module has been sent on Mars.
In other words, human mind is of the opinion, that, these inventions and innovations are the results of his intelligence, thinking and researches and there has been no help from ‘Nature’.
Brothers and
Sisters! So far as the family structure, politics of the state are concerned human mind based
this on Darwinian
theory that the original form of human beings is Apes
and gradually there has been evolution in his mental
faculties where he started making analysis of the elements of the universe and gradually he learned to dress, cook,
get married, have children
and set up education
system.
In
other words human mind also
attributes creation of way of life to him.
Brothers and Sisters! So far as the concept of Anbiyya e Karam is concerned
the human mind treats them as ‘Reformers’. In other words human mind considers them just like scientists, philosophers, teachers
where reformers make researches to expend day to day family
life and devise principles and
rules and regulations.
MEETINGS OF MANKIND WITH LONE ENTITY OF ALLAH
Brothers and
Sisters! Mankind has been sent in this world for a test. The test is
to recognise Allah. The nearest meaning of Hadith
e Qudsi is to the effect: Allah
(SWT) said to Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW), Khatim ul Anbiyya:
I was a hidden
Treasure.
I wished to be
recognised.
So I created Jinn
and Inss.
(spirits and mankind)
Brothers and
Sisters! However, before Allah sent mankind on earth, there were two
meetings between Allah and mankind.
First Meeting
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
The circumstantial evidence depicts that when all the souls and elements of
universe were created, Allah gathered all of them and put before them that when
they will be sent in the world, would they assume the responsibility to honour Al Amanah i.e. discharge duties and
responsibilities. As below is the proposition made by Allah:
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 72
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Truly, We did offer Al-Amanah (the trust or moral responsibility or
honesty and all that the duties which Allah has ordained) to the
heavens and the earth, and the mountains………….
·
It is a natural phenomenon that when one makes a proposition then the other
party looks at the proposition, reads it, understands it and then makes decision to accept it or
excuse himself. After consideration of the proposition of Allah heavens, earth
and mountain excused themselves but mankind accepted the proposition of Allah (SWT).
·
As below is the response of the proposition made by Allah:
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 72
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
……….but
they (heavens,
earth and mountains) declined to bear it and were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of
Allah’s Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he was unjust (to himself) and ignorant (of its
results).
Second Meeting
Brothers and
Sisters! The circumstantial evidence depicts that when mankind assumed the responsibility to honour Al Amanah then Allah asked
the mankind:
Surah Al A’raf Ayat no 172
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth
from Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed (or from Adam’s loin his
offspring) and made them testify as to themselves (saying):
“Am I
not your Lord?”
Brothers and
Sisters! Mankind replied:
They said: “Yes! We Testify”,
Brothers and Sisters! Allah warned them that remember that I am your Rabb and do not
pretend on the Day of Resurrection that you were not aware of it.
Lest you should say on the Day of
Resurrection: Verily, we have been unaware of this.
Brother! The essence of the above Verse depicts that
the above dialogue took place face to face.
There is a question and answer
.
Question and answer only takes place when
two parties are face to face, either in person, or over the phone or there is a partition
between them. Similarly, the proposition in the first
meeting was made face
to face. This denotes that every soul
has met Allah (SWT), conversed with Him (SWT) and seen Him (SWT).
Brothers and Sisters! The question will arise how
mankind has seen Allah while Qur’an reveals that a human eye
cannot see Allah
. The answer is that the meetings were between Allah and souls of the human
beings. Soul is an invisible element but it
contains the essence of every part of human body.
For example when soul is taken out then the body is of no use. It cannot walk,
move hands or think. Therefore it is perfectly reasonable to assume that every soul has seen the Entity of Allah (SWT).
Brothers and Sisters! Let us look at what constitutes Al –
Amanah.
Brothers and Sisters! In short, the ‘crux’ of Al Amanah is:
·
speak truth do not lie
·
be honest, do not cheat
·
obey legal jurisdiction, do not break law
·
do not infringe the rights of the other
·
do not oppress weak
·
get married, do not indulge in illicit intercourse
·
discharge your duties and responsibilities amicably
·
etc.
Brother and
Sisters!
Can any
of the human being deny
any of the
above values
which are termed as ‘Moral’ values?
Brothers and Sisters! If nobody can deny any of the
above ‘Moral’ values then it
is a clear proof that every soul has met Allah (SWT) and
Allah exists and Allah is Lone Entity. But
because mankind has been sent in this world for a test to ‘recognise’ Allah and he
gets influenced by the
satisfaction of ‘Sensual Appetite’, so either he denies the existence
of Allah or he forgets about the
Entity of Allah because he gets influenced by the Sensual Appetite.
ACCOUNTABILITY
Brothers and Sisters! One of the
arguments of atheists is that if Allah Rehman and Raheem then why people
suffer through hunger, oppression, calamities and natural disasters etc. This issue
was raised by journalist, John Humphrys during his interviews with three scholars of
Christianity, Judaism and Islam in the programme: Humphrys in Search of God.
Concept:
Allah Does not Exist
Brother!
For the sake of argument, let us leave the concept of Existence of Allah and concept of religion on one side and look at the politics of the world that
how it is designed, devised and put into practice.
Brothers and Sisters! An outline of
the politics of the state is:
·
constitution
·
legal jurisdiction
·
polices:
o
political
§ defence
§ foreign affairs
§ home affairs
§ health
§ etc.
o
social
§ family structure
§ marriages
§ brought up of
children
§ social welfare
system
§ rights of
neighbours
§ etc
o
economical
§ monetary policy
§ fiscal policy
o
commercial
§ buying and
selling
§ commercial law
§ marketing
§ etc.
Brothers and
Sisters! The head of the state devises an infrastructure to run the
affairs of the state in every respect so that people remain within the
atmosphere of Peace and Harmony
.
Brothers and
Sisters! Constitution, legal
jurisdiction and policies are devised to be implemented by the public. The jurisdiction and policies also contain the clauses that if law is broken then it is punishable by fines,
imprisonment or death
. For this
purposes courts of law are established, where criminals are tried, prisons are built
where criminals are detained so that they do not harm public.
Brothers and
Sisters! In short, there is accountability of every member of the public if
he abides
by the law or not and the people who turn out to be criminals they
are punished.
Brothers and
Sisters! So far as the aggrieved people are concerned there is a system of compensation for them. In
England the cases of aggrieved person are dealt with by Criminal Injury
Compensation Board. There are many other forms to compensate the aggrieved persons.
Dvine Revelations
Brothers and
Sisters! When a head of the state is nominated, appointed or elected, he assumes
the responsibility that he will deal with every aspect of the affairs of the state
which will bring Peace and Harmony in the lives of its inhabitants.
Brothers and
Sisters! The divine myth is that Allah has created universe for mankind. This fact is
revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah Al A’raf Ayat no 54
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Indeed your Lord is Allah Who created heavens and the
earth in Six Days, and then He rose over (Istawa) the Arsh (really in a manner that
suits His Majesty). He brings the night a cover over the day, seeking it
rapidly, and (He created) the sun, the moon, the stars subjected to His command. Surely, His is the Creations and Commandment. Blessed is Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all
that exists).
Brothers and Sisters! Allah also reveals that
He (SWT) is Aleem
(Knower of everything) and He (SWT) is aware of what goes on
within every creation of the universe.
Surah Al Hadid Ayat no 4
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
He it is Who created the heavens and the
earth in six Days and then rose over (Istawa) the Throne (in a manner that
suits His Majesty). He knows what goes on into the earth and
what comes forth from it, and what descends from the heavens and what ascends
thereto. And
He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allah is the
All-Seer of what you do.
Brothers and Sisters! In fact, head of
the state is viceroy
of Allah i.e. to look after the people of the state.
Brothers and Sisters! The cabinet ministers are Viceroy of head of the state. They are
required to implement the policies of the head of the state. In other words when the viceroys
implement the policies of the head of the state it is tantamount to
implementation of the policies by the head of the state. In practice
whatever progress is made in every sphere of life it is attributed to the head
of the state.
Brothers and Sisters! As head of the
state is viceroy of Allah, therefore he has to seek guidance from the Principal i.e. Allah. For
this purpose he has to read, study, think and understand the Guidance of Allah and teachings of
Anbiyya e Karam so that he can devise policies accordingly.
Brothers and
Sisters! The point is that if the
cabinet ministers have to seek guidance from head of state then surely the head of state has to seek guidance from another source.
Brothers and Sisters! In this scientific age, as the
concept of Lone
Entity of Allah has been put aside, the guidance is sought through study of the history, data accumulated over
centuries on the basis of observation and experiments, moral values etc.
In other words guidance is sought through education system.
Brothers
and Sisters! But the
question arises
from what source data has originated? If the data is originated from one source only then one has to believe that the source of Data is Qur’an.
How?
Brothers and Sisters! First, let us
look into the views of non – Muslims in respect of the Qur’an and Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW).
Brothers and Sisters! Non – Muslims do not believe that the Qur’an is Word of Allah and Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW) is last Nabi (Prophet) of Allah.
Brothers and Sisters! However they
admit:
·
Mohammed Ibne Abdullah
(SAW) has been in existence
·
He (SAW) is not a Prophet
but a reformer
·
As a reformer He (SAW) composed the Book: Qur’an which deals
with every sphere of life
·
Qur’an is comprehensive book. Its comprehensiveness is depicted by
the fact that the name of Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) appears as the ‘Greatest Law
Giver’ on the list of ‘Law Givers’ at Lincoln’s Inn in London. Moreover, the third President of the United States of
America, Thomas Jefferson, kept copy of the Qur’an
in his personal library
.
·
Michael Hart, a great historian, ranked Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW) at top of the list of 100 most influential men since the
origin of the world in his book:
EVERY
‘ILM’ ORIGINATES FROM THE QUR’AN
Brothers and Sisters! Now let us make
an analysis how Qur’an is origin
of every ILM (knowledge) e.g.
·
moral
o
etiquettes
o
temperament
o
attitude and behaviour
o
rights of:
§ parents
§ children
§ spouses
§ relatives
§ neighbours
§ strangers
§ other creations:
animals, birds, creations in sea etc.
§ etc.
·
spiritual
o
divine contact
o
Ibadaahs (worship)
·
social
o
way of day to day life
o
marriages
o
divorces
o
brought up of children
o
culture and civilisation
o
etc.
·
commercial
o
set up of business
o
principles and rules and regulation of business dealings
o
keeping records of business affairs
o
legal jurisdiction which monitors business dealings
o
etc.
·
psychological
o
mental state
o
how to deal with disturbance in mind
·
medical
o
diagnose health problem
o
advices to patient
o
prescriptions
o
etc.
·
neurological
o
disturbance in the tissues of brain
o
how to rectify
·
astronomical
o
knowledge of the planets of the universe: sun, moon, stars,
galaxies etc.
Brothers and
Sisters!
In short, you name any type of ILM (knowledge) and you will
find answer in the Qur’an.
How?
Brothers and Sisters! Let us look at
an example
which can expose that every ILM originates form
the Qur’an.
Brothers and Sisters! Let us take an
example of a tree.
Brothers and Sisters! When a seed is sown at land
in appropriate depth then:
·
seed flourishes
·
stem emerge
·
branches emerge
on the stem
·
leaves emerge
on the branches
·
flowers emerge
on the branches
·
fruits emerge on
the branches
·
properties are
inflicted in every part of the tree
·
etc.
Brothers and
Sisters! There are countless produces which emerge from the seed.
Therefore, any
produce which has emerged on the tree will be attributed to the ‘seed’ i.e. it has
originated from the seed. In other words it originated from the tree.
Brothers and
Sisters!
Now let us look at how every ILM originates from the Qur’an.
Brothers and
Sisters! To establish that every ILM originates from
the
Qur’an it has to be rationally proved that there was nothing in the universe when the Qur’an was ascribed.
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
On the face value Qur’an is a text which is read, understood and then putting its teaching into
practice.
·
To understand ILM there has to be another object. If there is no other object then the context and
substance of the text cannot be understood.
·
Allah is Lone Entity. There was nothing in existence other than Allah. Therefore, Allah needed somebody who could
understand the context and substance of the Qur’an.
·
The question arises why Allah wanted somebody to understand the context and
substance of the Qur’an.
·
It is natural phenomenon
that if a person is alone then he needs a counterpart to share his views and thoughts.
·
Allah was alone. So there could not be His counterpart. Therefore, Allah has to create a mind who could
understand the context and substance of the Qur’an. For this reason Allah
created Angels,
Jinn, (Spirits) and mankind.
·
The question
arises, why Allah wanted to create Angels, Jinn and mankind.
·
The circumstantial evidence depicts that as Allah was Lone Entity and He
(SWT) Knew His (SWT) powers, so He (SWT)
wanted those powers to be recognised. This aspect is reflected in Hadith e Qudsi:
I was a hidden
Treasure.
I wished to be
recognised.
So I created Jinn
and Inss.
(Spirits and Mankind)
·
It
is natural phenomenon that when a personality is recognised
then one submits to him. For example: in our day to
day life when it is learned that a person has a number of degrees, highly qualified, has a lot of business organisations, properties etc. etc. then people listen to him and follow
what he
tells them to do. Why? Because people get impressed by
his qualities i.e. he is far
above the average person who has so many faculties. In other
words people submit to him.
·
Therefore, the object of creation of Angels, Jinn and mankind was that they submit to Allah in
every respect. In other words, they were created for ‘Bandagi’ (submission, worship).
Brothers and
Sisters! The circumstantial evidence depicts:
·
First Allah created Angels. When Angels recognised Allah they understood and appreciated
powers of Allah and submitted to Him (SWT) every moment.
·
When Allah did not see any element of disobedience by Angels then Allah created Jinn (Spirits).
Although Jina’at understood and appreciated powers of Allah but they became mischievous except a few.
·
When Allah saw the two extremes then Allah created mankind. To differentiate between good and bad Allah gave him
element of ‘option’ i.e. he could
be submissive or mischievous.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Question
emerges in minded that the creation has a time scale
i.e. beginning and end. Now if one is submissive
and other is mischievous and they both come to end then what
is achieved?
Brothers and
Sisters! This is where the essence of two meetings becomes operational. It will be recalled that Allah had two
meetings with mankind. In the first meeting all the creations were asked if
they will honour Al Amanah.
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 72
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Truly, We did offer Al-Amanah (the trust or moral responsibility or
honesty and all that the duties which Allah has ordained) to the
heavens and the earth, and the mountains………….
Brothers and
Sisters! Heavens, earth and mountain excused themselves but
mankind bore.
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 72
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
…………but
they (heavens,
earth and mountains) declined to bear it and were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of
Allah’s Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he was unjust (to himself) and
ignorant (of its results).
Brothers and
Sisters! When proposition was made to all the creations at that time Allah
also warned
them that if Al Amanah is not honoured then there will be punishment:
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 73
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
So that Allah will punish the hypocrites men and women, and the men and women who
are al-Mushrikun
(polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers, in the Oneness of Allah, and His
Messenger Mohammed (SAW)). And Allah will pardon (accept the repentance of) the true believers of the Islamic Monotheism, men and women.
And Allah is Ever Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
Brothers and
Sisters! Although in the Verse only mankind is addressed but it was applicable to all the creations on the basis
that mankind is Ashraf ul Makhlukat (the most
superior), so anything addressed to him is applicable to all the creations.
Brothers
and Sisters!
It was concept of the punishment which led heavens, earth and
mountains to excuse themselves to honour Al Amanah. But as mankind opted to honour Al
Amanah, so he accepted that if he will be disobedient then he will be punishable. In other words the concept of ‘accountability’ was
established i.e. the one who will be submissive
he will be rewarded and whoever will be disobedient he will be punished.
Brothers and
Sisters! The question arises when there will be ‘accountability’. Will it be as
soon as a person dies or will it be at a later stage?
Brothers and
Sisters! It is natural phenomenon that
a creation cannot be eternal. In short, Allah devised a system:
·
this universe was created and it has to come to an end,
·
Hazrat Adam (PBUH) was created and thereafter His offspring, so
there has to be a limit on the offspring i.e. there is a last soul and when the last
soul will be given
birth then there will be no more offspring left and the last person will have to die.
·
Similarly, Angels and Jina’at are creations so they will have to die as well.
·
The day when
the existence of every creation: universe, mankind, jina’at and angels will
come to an end, it is termed Doomsday. Mankind will gathered which is revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah An Nisa Ayat no. 87
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be
worshipped but He).
Surely, He will gather you together on the Day of Resurrection
about which there is no doubt. And who is truer in statement than Allah.
Brothers and
Sisters! This will be the day when the situation of the time will prevail
when there
was nothing other than the Lone Entity of Allah (SWT). This fact has been revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah Al Mo’min Ayat no 16
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
The Day when they will (all) come out,
nothing of them will be hidden from Allah. Whose is the Kingdom this Day? (Allah Himself will reply to His
question): Allah is the One, the Irresistible!
Brothers and
Sisters! The context and substance of the above Verse implies that as
Allah Himself posed a question and answered Himself, so everything
in the universe was non – existent. So it
was the same situation when there was Lone Entity of Allah and nothing was created.
Brothers and
Sisters! In the following Verse Allah
tells the mankind that there will be accountability of every body
and no one will be oppressed as the justice will be done:
Tramslation Surah Al Mo’min Ayat no 17
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
This day shall every person be recompensed for what he earned. This Day no injustice (shall be done to anybody). Truly, Allah
is Swift in reckoning.
WHY PEOPLE SUFFER IN THIS WORLD
Brothers and
Sisters! One of the questions posed by human mind is that if Allah is Rehman and Raheem then why people suffer i.e. natural
catastrophes: earthquakes, storms, eruption of volcanoes etc.
Brothers and Sisters! Let us try to deal with this question by taking
example of this world.
Brothers and Sisters! Let us put aside the concept of Lone Entity of Allah on hold
and let us assume:
·
as per the theology of Aristotle, the most
famous of the Greek philosophers, believed the universe had
existed forever. Something eternal is more perfect than
something created. And
·
mankind is evolution of apes which led to development of
faculties of mind and a civilisation came into being where principles, rules
and regulation were devised in respect of every sphere of life.
Brothers and Sisters! If the civilisation is development
of evolution of Apes then
surely the feelings i.e. love, hate
, respect
, oppression
etc. etc. are the creation of human mind
. Surely, love, hate, respect and oppression cannot be attributed to
natural phenomenon.
Brothers
and Sisters!
If this is to be attributed to ‘Nature’ then one has to believe in the Existence of Allah.
Brothers and Sisters! As because of hate and oppression rights of other
people are
infringed, so the government devises a legal jurisdiction
where the people who will infringe the rights of other people they will be punished. The people
whose rights are infringed they are compensated. The people who opt for love and respect, they are being
rewarded.
Brothers and Sisters! Naturally, the
people who
infringe the rights of other people they will not come forward and admit that
they have infringed the rights of other people and they will remain under cover so they are not
caught. Now if such people die and
there is no life after death then they got away and left people suffering.
Brothers and Sisters! Government
devises a legal jurisdiction
for crimes to deter people to indulge in criminal acts. Then news is published in respect of the criminals who have been
punished by fine or imprisonment or death to highlight the consequences of
criminal activities in order to deter people to commit crimes.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Now if a government can devise constitution
to run the affairs of the state, principles and rules and regulations for day
to day life, legal jurisdiction to combat
crimes, then why Allah, Who is the Creator of this
universe and mankind cannot
devise a constitution,
principles, rules and regulations for mankind to follow i.e. Qur’an?
QUR’AN
IS NOT COMPOSED BY MOHAMMED IBNE ABDULLAH (SAW)
Brothers and Sisters! Qur’an is comprehensive Book in every
respect. As per non – Muslims Qur’an is composed by Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW). Now, for the sake of argument, if it is assumed that the Qur’an
is composed by Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) then the people who believe Qur’an is Word of
Allah, then as per non – Muslim’s theology the text of the
Qur’an was borrowed
by Allah.
Brothers and Sisters! It is impossible that Qur’an is composed by Mohammed
Ibne Abdullah (SAW). How?
Brothers and Sisters! Please consider
the following:
·
The name of Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is on the top of the list of Law Givers, being ‘Greatest Law
Giver’ at Lincoln’s Inn in London.
·
Before the legal team, who had been designated the job of making analysis of the Qur’an determined that
the
Qur’an is comprehensive book in every respect, they must have:
o
assessed and judged the teachings of the Qur’an in Its practicability i.e. it was on the basis of the
teachings of the Qur’an that Muslims ruled the world,
introduced Moral
values etc.
o
read the history in respect of every sphere of life: social, economical, commercial, defence, aggression and
otherwise.
o
read the evolution of scientific developments in Muslim era
o
read the principles and rules and regulation in respect of the politics of the state
i.e. how peace and harmony can prevail
within the state.
o
read the history of wars i.e. principles and rules and regulation of wars which resulted
in the formation of United Nations i.e. to deter countries to indulge in war, Geneva convention i.e. how to
treat prisoners of war, tactics i.e. how to win the war.
o
read the history how the Sahaba (RTU) were educated by Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW) and thereafter Sahaba (RTU) educated the oncoming
generations.
o
read and analysed the biography of Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW)
and Sahaba Karam (RTU) in every respect. German Dr Springer write in the Preface of the book: Life of Mohammed
(SAW):
No nation has
passed in the past nor is present in this age other than Muslims who had innovated
the art of Isma
Rijal
where the life of 500,000 people can be browsed.
o
In nutshell, the
legal team read, studied and analysed Qur’an and Hadith.
Brothers
and Sisters!
When the legal team must have gathered that there is answer of every
question in the Qur’an
, only then they must have determined
that Qur’an is a comprehensive book. But as the non Muslims do
not believe Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) Prophet of Allah
,
so they formed an opinion that the Qur’an is composed by Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW).
Brothers and Sisters! Now let us look into the fact that how Mohammed
Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is not composer of the Qur’an. Please consider the
following:-
·
It is admitted that Qur’an is comprehensive book and
Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is composer of the Qur’an.
·
The legal team must have studied the teachings of
other law
givers as well, since Hazrat Adam (PBUH) i.e. Prophets and otherwise.
Moreover, they believe Taurat, Injeel and Zabur are Books of Allah, so they
must have made
analysis of their teachings.
·
So
as it was admitted that Qur’an is comprehensive book and Mohammed Ibne Abdullah
(SAW) has composed It (Qur’an) then it is implied that Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is ‘Super’ human being. Why?
Because no one could compose book like Qur’an since
Hazrat Adam (PBUH) 1400 years ago or anyone have composed since 1400 years ago.
·
If
Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is ‘Super’ human being then He has to be
treated as Allah because the meaning of Allah implies that He is perfect in every respect and is in control of everything. Only a perfect Entity can write a
comprehensive book.
But Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) is not perfect and in control of anything. For the sake of
argument had He been
in control of everything He would have reformed every human being. Moreover, He had to depart from
this world just like a normal human being. Furthermore, His survival was dependent upon consumption of food and
He married, had
children and
suffered in the hands of enemies.
Therefore, if a person who cannot be immune from hunger, physical needs and
otherwise, how he can be in control of
everything.
·
Mohammed Ibne Abdullah
(SAW) is an Ummi. Ummi means the one who cannot read and write. So it is
perfectly safe to assume that He (SAW) did not read any books. History also
tells that He (SAW) did not have a teacher from whom He (SAW) could
learn.
·
Therefore, if He (SAW) could not
read and did not have a teacher and He (SAW) did not know the history then there has to be another Entity who was in communication with Him (SAW) and the other entity was knowledgeable and knew
the history since Hazrat
Adam (PBUH).
·
This unseen Entity cannot be other than Allah. This is the test for the mankind
to believe in Allah who is in Ghaib (Unseen) and this has been revealed in the beginning of the
Qur’an:
Translation Surah
Al Baqrah Ayat No. 3
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Who believe in Ghaib and perform As – Salat (Iqamat as Salat….
Brothers and Sisters! Allah is Aleem. Allah was aware of that mankind
will pose this question that Qur’an is composed by Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW),
So He (SWT) revealed in the Qur’an that only Allah could produce Qur’an and
Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) could not produce Qur’an:
Translation Surah
Yunus Ayat No. 37
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And this Qur’an is
not such as could ever be produced by other than Allah (Lord of the
heavens and the earth), but it is a confirmation of (the revelation) which was
before it [i.e. the Taurat (Torah), and the Injeel (gospel)], and a full
explanation of the Book (i.e. the laws decreed for mankind – wherein there is
no doubt – from the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, Jinn, and all that exists).
Translation Surah
Al-Ankabut Ayat No. 48
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Neither did you (O
Mohammed (SAW)) read any book before it (this Qur’an), nor did you write any
book (whatsoever) with your right hand. In that case, indeed, the
followers of falsehood might have doubted.
WHAT
IS THE OBJECT OF CREATION OF MANKIND?
Brothers and Sisters! The question was
that if Allah is Rehman and Raheem then why people suffer i.e. infringement of their rights, natural
calamities: earthquakes, storms, floods, high velocity winds and abuse of power
by the authorities.
Brothers and Sisters! Allah (SWT) has
sent mankind in this world for a test. If he is successful in test then he will be rewarded in the life
hereafter. How?
Brothers and Sisters! Let us take example of this world.
·
An employer employs an
employee to
render his services. The contract is signed that employee will be rewarded for his services
subject to the guidance of the
employer.
·
Now if the employee renders his services as per the guidance of
employer then the employer will reward him. But if he renders his services as per his own theology he will not be rewarded.
Brothers and
Sisters! After one month employer
will assess performance of the employee. If the outcome is as per his (employer’s) guidance then he
will be rewarded for his services. Brothers
and Sisters! The point here to note is that the
employee kept on rendering services for one month and he was not paid any money. In
other words the reward was accumulating. After one month when employer is satisfied then he pays him the accumulated reward which he can
make use of.
Brothers and
Sisters! But on the other hand if
the employee does not render his services as per the guidance of employer then no reward will be accumulated
and at the end of the month there will be no reward for him rather he will be fired which is tantamount punishment in the sense that as he does
not have any money so he will starve and will not be
able to fulfil his requirements.
Brothers and Sisters! Now, if one believes it or not but mankind
is a creation and Creator is Allah, then it is Allah Who has sent mankind in this world for a test. Test is similar to the contract between an employer and employee. Therefore, if
mankind will pass the test he will be rewarded
in the life hereafter and
this has been highlighted in the Books of Allah. If mankind failed the test then he will be punished.
Brothers and Sisters! Allah has made
aware mankind that the one who will pass the test he will be in Paradise and who will fail the test he will be in Hell. This aspect was made clear in the first meeting:
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 73
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
So that Allah will punish the hypocrites men and women, and the men and women who
are al-Mushrikun.
And Allah will pardon the true believers of the Islamic Monotheism, men and women.
And Allah is Ever Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
Brothers and Sisters! The context and
substance of the above Verse is that the one who will not expend their lives as
per the Guidance of Allah they
will be punished and the one who will expend their lives as
per the Guidance of Allah they
will be rewarded.
Brothers and Sisters! Allah has
revealed the aspect of life hereafter for reward and punishment.
Punishment of Disbelievers
Translation Surah Al Hajj Ayat no 19 – 22
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
19. These two opponents (believers and
disbelievers) dispute with each other about their Lord: then as for those who
disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them, boiling water will be
poured down over their heads.
20. With it will melt (or vanish away) what is within
their bellies,
as well as (their) skins.
21. And for them are hooked
rods of
iron (to punish them)
22. Every time they seek to get away
therefrom anguish, they will be driven back therein, and (it will be) said to them: “Taste
the torment of burning!”
Reward for Believers
Translation Surah Al Hajj Ayat no 23 – 25
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
23. Truly, Allah will admit those who
believe
(in the Oneness of Allah – Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, to
Garden underneath which rivers flow (in
wherein they will be adorned with bracelets of gold and pearls and their garments therein will be of silk.
24. And they are guided (in this world) unto
goodly speech
(i.e. La ilaha illallah, Alhamdulillah, recitation of the Qur’an) and they are guided to the Path of Him (i.e.
Allah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism), Who is worth of all Praises.
25. Verily, those who disbelieved and hinder
(men) from the Path of Allah, and from Al-Masjid Al-Haram (at Makkah) which We
have made (open) to (all) men, the dweller in it and the visitor from the
country are equal there (as regards its sanctity and pilgrimage (Hajj and
Umrah) – and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong (i.e.
practice polytheism and leave Islamic Monotheism), him We shall cause to taste
from a painful torment.
Brothers and Sisters! Let us make an
analysis of the Verses as above:
·
In Verse no. 19 mankind is segregated in two groups. Obedient to Allah and non obedient to Allah.
·
In Verse no. 19 to 22 Allah has revealed the type of punishment of the
disobedient people.
·
In Verse no. 23 Allah has revealed the rewards for the
obedient people.
·
In Verse no. 24 Allah Praises the righteous people.
·
In Verse no. 25 Allah has warned that whoever will be disobedient and becomes a hindrance for
people to be on the Right Path, they will be punished.
Brothers
and Sisters!
So the answer lies in the above Verses of the
Qur’an that the people who will suffer in this world they will be rewarded
in the life
hereafter subject to
belief in the Lone
Entity of Allah and their sufferings in the world had been
because of following the Right
Path.
Brothers and
Sisters! So far as the calamities: earthquake, storms, high velocity
winds and eruption of volcanoes are concerned, this is a reminder from Allah for the mankind to follow the Right Path and not to be
disobedient to Allah
.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Whenever, there is a calamity people start praying. This is reflection of the reminder from Allah.
REASONS WITHIN MANKIND ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF
ALLAH (SWT)
Brothers and
Sisters! If one makes a critical analysis of his own self, he will find that Entity of Allah
exists in him and Allah is in control of everything.
How?
Brothers and
Sisters! First let us look into what is concept of Allah. The concept of
Allah is:
·
He was, is and will be Lone Entity.
·
He created the universe and everything in it.
·
He devised a system where things will come into being and those will be
used or consumed.
·
He inflicted the properties within the produces and things which will do their
job. For example:
o
Food will end the
hunger and its digestion will keep the body healthy
o
clothes will cover the body and save the body from hot and cold weather
o
house will give shelter and place to live
·
As Allah has created everything, therefore, everything
is under His Command.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Now for the sake of argument, if we determine that there is no Lone Entity of Allah who
is the Creator of everything, then we have to admit
that everything assumes the ‘role’ of Allah.
Each item is combination of ‘atoms’,
which are invisible and composed of ‘electrons’and
‘protons’.
So every
electron and proton assumes the role of Allah .
Brothers and
Sisters! So if the mind does not believe that there is Lone Entity of Allah then
there are trillions,
trillions and trillions of Allahs (gods) because every atom has a command and science has proved it.
Brothers and
Sisters! Now let us look
into the fact that human mind does not
control anything. Rather it is an ‘Unseen’ force which controls everything. Let us take a
few examples:
Writers of books, articles etc
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
Human mind observes the incidents, events, and also experiences incidents in
day to day life. For some reason he wants to write a book or an
article.
·
He sits in a secluded place and concentrates on the subject
matter and then data starts flowing from his mind which he starts to process on paper and eventually manuscript of the book or an
article is composed.
Brothers and Sisters! On the face value it is Mr A who has composed
the book and article and every word of it has flown from his mind. This denotes all the data which has been put on
the paper was
stored in his mind and theoretically it will remain in his mind.
On the assumption that the data will
remain in his mind then he can compose the book or write an article any time without reference to the book he has already composed
or article written.
Brothers and
Sisters! But in reality it is not possible that he will be
able to write the same book or the article in
that manner. In fact, when he will read the book himself
he will realise that most of the data was
not in his mind when he started
to write the book or an article. And after few
months he will completely forget the text of the book or
an article except the theme of the subject matter will remain in his mind.
Brothers and
Sisters! So what this proves? It proves that while he
was writing manuscript of the book or an article there was an ‘Unseen’ force who was transmitting and administering the data and
this was processed by hand i.e. put on the paper.
Enthusiasm and Vigour
Brothers and
Sisters! Please assess and
judge the ‘reality’ by the following
factors:-
·
you are making a speech to a congregation. While making a speech there is enthusiasm, vigour. Now after the
speech is finished would you be
able to deliver the speech with
same
enthusiasm and vigour and with the same text? The answer will be ‘No’. So as the
answer will be ‘No’ then it was not you who was creating the data but it was an ‘Unseen’ force who was
creating the data and it was flowing in the form of speech. It proves that you were not in control but it was the ‘Unseen’ force who was
in control of your mind.
·
You meet one of your beloved friends after a long time. Both embrace each other with
enthusiasm
and vigour and the embrace may last for
many
minutes. Within this period the feelings of love and affection were transmitting in each other’s
heart and mind. But if the same friends see each other on the following day they will not embrace each other in the
manner
they embraced on the previous day although the love and affections are at the same level or it may have enhanced. Why they will
not embrace each other with same enthusiasm and vigour because on the previous
day you and your friend were not in control of yourselves, you were in control of an ‘Unseen’ force who made
you embrace with enthusiasm and vigour. Had you been in control of yourself then on the following day you would have embraced with
same enthusiasm and
vigour?
Brothers and
Sisters! There are many other examples in our day to day life which depict
that it is not
human mind who is in control but mind is in control of an ‘Unseen’ force Who cannot
be other than the Lone Entity of Allah (SWT).
Scientific Developments
Brothers and
Sisters! Let us look at the existence of Lone Entity
of Allah (SWT) from another angle.
Brothers and
Sisters! Everybody believes and
admits that nothing can be created without
planning, there has to be an object
for creation, and everything is created by the combination of material matter and invisible forces.
Brothers and
Sisters! Let us look at few
examples:
Information technology
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
To process words or to browse internet there are:
o
central processing unit (CPU)
o
keyboard
o
mouse
o
monitor
·
a programme has
to be installed which is devised by taking into account every minute step. If
any of the steps is missing in the programme or is corrupted then the word will not
be processed. For example: when one has
to write on a piece of paper, following will be the commandments:
o
pick up pen
o
bring it to at specific height
o
take it to the inkpot
o
put the pen into the inkpot
o
take the pen out of the inkpot
o
bring back to specific height
o
put pen on the paper
o
start writing
·
Now if the human mind has to programme each and every step to process a word
then how can it be possible that this whole universe has been created without a programme and no one has control over
it. Allah (SWT) has revealed this fact
in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah Al A’raf Ayat no 54
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Indeed your Lord is Allah Who created heavens and the
earth in Six Days, and then He
rose over (Istawa) the Arsh (really in a manner that suits His Majesty). He
brings the night a cover over the day, seeking it rapidly, and (He created) the sun, the moon, the stars subjected to His command. Surely, His is the
Creations and Commandment. Blessed is
Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists).
Brothers and Sisters! Allah also reveals that
He (SWT) is Aleem (Knower of
everything) and He (SWT) is aware of what goes on within every creation of the universe.
Translation Surah Al Hadid Ayat no 4
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
He it is Who created the heavens and the
earth in six Days and then rose over (Istawa) the Throne (in a manner that
suits His Majesty). He knows what goes on into the earth and
what comes forth from it, and what descends from the heavens and what ascends
thereto. And
He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allah is the
All-Seer of what you do.
Brothers and
Sisters! If we make an analysis of the above Verses of the Qur’an then we will gather that likewise information
technology this universe has been programmed in every respect.
Lenses in Eyes
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
Everyone believes and admits that there are lenses in eyes where he is
able to see and look at things which are far, near and very close.
·
When eyesight weakens i.e. one cannot see things clearly when they are far or cannot
read a small print or cannot focus on the computer, his eyesight is tested
where the level
of weakness is determined and prescribed and lenses are made which are then
used for the specific object.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Now when the eyesight is not
weak then human
eye is constantly seeing things which are far away,
or very close or a small print. This depicts that there are many lenses in
orbit of
an eye which keep coming
forward and look
at the thing which is at specific distance.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Science has developed Electronic Varifocal Lenses which can do the same job i.e. one
can adjust the lenses by the touch
of a finger at the right place.
Brothers and
Sisters! Does this not depict that if human mind has to process
the lenses when the
eyesight goes weak, so there has to be a Creator of eye who made
the lenses
of eye in every respect i.e. far, near, very close? If there is no
‘Unseen’ force i.e. Entity of Allah then the
eyesight should remain as it has been at birth and should not be weaken.
Saliva
Brothers and
Sisters! Saliva is a liquid secreted into the mouth by glands to provide
lubrication which facilitates chewing and swallowing and aids digestion.
Brothers and
Sisters! Now let us look at the
functions of ‘Saliva’ and its origin.
Brothers and
Sisters!
·
The emergence of saliva is programmed in such a way that when it
is used i.e. diminishes while speaking, eating and otherwise the glands become
active and produce the required quantity of saliva. When one is speaking or eating then
the glands are active continuously to produced saliva so the shortfall of saliva is
made good.
·
The importance of saliva can be assessed and judged when there is
not
enough saliva in the mouth and then water is being drunk to keep the
inside of the mouth wet. Sometimes it happens that when one is making a speech
for a length of time then the throat gets dry and he has to drink water to keep it wet otherwise he
will not be able to speak.
·
Saliva has acids in it which help to digest food. This is why physicians advise that chew food as much as
possible so that saliva is mixed with the food which will not only help to
digest food but also dig out the properties of the food which helps for good
health.
Lubricants
Brothers and
Sisters! There are many types of lubricants within the body
which keep generating and keep the body
moving. The Hikmah (prudence) of
lubricants can be judged by an example of motor car engine.
Brothers and
Sisters! To keep the car engine running and active there are many types of
lubricants which have to be put in different parts. For example:
·
engine oil
·
brake oil
·
clutch oil
·
power steering
oil
·
water
·
etc.
Brothers and
Sisters! If the lubricants are not put in the appropriate parts then when
the engine will be active the counterparts will rub against each other and will be of no
use and the car will not move
e.g. when pistons of the engine are active then they have to be covered with lubricant i.e. oil
otherwise the head will crack and engine will be dead. Similarly, when the
engine is active then it gets hot so it has to be cooled down. For this purpose there is system within the engine where water is circulated within the pipes attached with the radiator. If
water finishes then engine will be overheated and the head will crack.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Similarly survival of the human body is dependent upon lubricants and if the lubricants is not
within the joints the joints will crack, if the bone marrow
is
not in the bones then they will remain hollow
and break down. To keep the flesh active
there is a skin on the flesh which helps that the meat is not
rubbed. If the skin is not there then soon
the flesh will rub within itself and then gradually human body will vanish. This aspect can be understood
that when a person dies then lubricants are not produced and eventually only
the skeleton of body remains and that also
start to diminish and the time comes when there
will be no structure of the bones. But dead body can
be preserved provided the appropriate chemicals are placed within the body. For
example: alcohol is injected in the veins of the dead body which can preserve
the body for a long time.
Languages
Brothers and Sisters! No doubt you are
aware that there are countless languages and dialects spoken in the
world. But has any human mind wondered how these languages and
dialects came into being. No doubt some human minds must have wondered
but have those findings been made public so that every human being could
appreciate their imperative and importance?
Translation Surah Ar Rome Ayat no. 22
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And among His (Allah’s) Signs is the creation of the heavens and
the earth, and difference of your languages and
colours. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Whether Allah created mankind or Universe has been in existence
forever or human beings are evolution of Apes as per Darwinian Theory, it has to
be accepted and admitted that languages came into being whether it was
evolution from Apes or whether Allah is Creator of mankind.
·
The question arises why a language is required?
·
In fact language is required to express the sentiments
which emerge in heart and to
expose the data which
is stored and saved in mind.
Brothers and Sisters! The origin and emergence of languages and dialects has to be based on the theory
that Allah is Lone Entity, He created the universe and mankind and He is also Creator of languages and dialects
which are roaming around the world.
How?
Brothers and Sisters!
·
When Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were created, obviously, Allah had to communicate with Him (PBUH)
i.e. to tell him who is he and what is the object of his creation.
·
It is natural phenomenon that when somebody speaks then the other
person has to
listen and understand the message and also preserve the message.
·
Qur’an is Word of Allah and it is ascribed in Arabic language. Therefore, it is safe
to assume that Arabic is the first language. As whole of mankind is offspring of Hazrat Adam
(PBUH), so it can be deduced that Arabic is the mother language and all other languages and dialects have
been derived from Arabiclanguage. The
proof that all languages and dialects are derived from Arabic language is that
the alphabetic of all the
languages and dialects and pronunciation are based upon the pronunciation of Arabic alphabetic.
·
When Hazrat Adam (PBUH) and Hazrat Haw’wa were sent on earth the
earth
would have been just like a plain field and there were
mountains and seas.
·
Hazrat Adam (PBUH) was given ILM (knowledge) to make research of the universe
and
store the information in mind and thereafter conduct experiments.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Now, after the research of
the creations of the universe the theory which emerged in mind had to be preserved in some form so
that it can be referred to in future. So it must be that when Hazrat Adam
(PBUH) and His offspring made research they ascribed some signs i.e. writing to be referred
in future.
·
Whoever created those signs he has to tell others what this sign means? Because if the
other person does not know what sign means then it will be useless.
·
In short, the signs were termed as writings of the particular
language and this is how the writing of the language came into being. The shape
of writings also kept changing. For example if we compare the writing of Arabic language 1400
years ago with today’s writing, it will be completely
different. However, pronunciation
remained same.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
When the offspring of Hazrat Adam (PBUH) spread over the earth then to express the sentiments,
thoughts to others different dialects were spoken and writings came into being
accordingly. And this is how there are numerous languages and dialects prevailing in the world.
Brothers and Sisters! The question arises who is the creator of these languages and
dialects? Is it mankind or has Allah created these languages and dialects?
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Let us assume that the languages and dialects other than Arabic are created by mankind. This theory is
on the basis is it is the human mind who thought about it and gave it shape.
·
It is accepted fact that everyone believes in Lone Entity of
Allah and whenever he is in need of something, or in some problem then he
reverts to Allah and makes Dua’a (Pray) in his own language e.g. Urdu, English, Italian,
German, French, Hindi, Gujrati, Persian etc.
·
Now, if human mind is creator of all languages other than Arabic then how Allah will understand Dua’a when Dua’a
is made in Urdu, English, Italian,
German, French, Hindi, Gujrati, Persian etc
languages? Allah taught Arabic language to Hazrat Adam (PBUH), so if human mind is creator of Urdu, English,
Italian, German, French, Hindi, Gujrati, Persian etc. languages then mankind must have taught these languages to Allah. So if this theory is accepted then Allah does not fulfil the criteria of being Allah because the concept
of Allah is that He knows everything and is
in control of everything.
Brothers
and Sisters!
In fact, it is Allah Who helped mankind to develop
all the languages and dialects.
How?
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Mankind i.e. every human being is Khalifa (viceroy) of
Allah. Therefore, every Khalifa has to remain in contact with his Principal i.e. Allah to
seek guidance for the solution of the problems and other aspects of day to day
life.
·
To keep in contact with Allah, Allah has revealed in the Qur’an
that He (Allah) will teach him what he does not know. This revelation was made in the first five Ayats
of the Qur’an to Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW):
Translation Surah Al Alaq Ayat no 1 – 5
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Read! In the name of your Lord Who has
created (all that exits).
He has created man from a clot (a piece of
thick coagulated blood)
Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous.
Who has taught (the writing) by the Pen.
He has taught man that which he knew not.
Brothers and Sisters! The crux of the matter is
that when human mind starts thinking his contact is established with Allah where Allah exposes the secrets of the universe.
This aspect has also been revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah Al Mo’min Ayat no. 15
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
(He is Allah) Owner of High Ranks and Degrees, the Owner of the
Throne. He
sends the revelation (opens secrets) by His Command to any of His slaves. He Wills, that he (the person who receives revelation) may warn
(men) of the Day of Mutual Meeting (i.e.) Day of Resurrection.
Brothers and Sisters! In view of the
subject matter the elaboration of the above Verse can be as follows:-
First
Brothers and Sisters! Allah reveals
His powers:
(He
is Allah) Owner of High Ranks and
Degrees,
the Owner of the Throne.
Second
Brothers and Sisters! Allah advises
that whenever human mind explores the properties of the universes then He reveals the secrets to the human
mind:
He
sends the revelation (opens secrets) by
His Command
to
any of His slaves.
Third
Brothers and Sisters! The object of revelation of the secrets is that when human mind is advised about the secrets of the
universe. then he should pass these on to other human minds:
He Wills, that he (the person who receives revelation) may warn (men) of the Day of Mutual Meeting (i.e.) Day of Resurrection.
Brothers and Sisters! Now, let us look at how the context and substance of the above
Verse applies to the scientific
developments since day one, especially,
in this scientific age where the concept of Allah seems a fantasy (Nauz Billah).
Brothers and Sisters! No doubt the
secrets of the universe has been revealed to human mind since Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were sent in this world, but the history of revelation of
the scientific developments has been available since 1400 years ago.
Brothers and Sisters! The examples of
revelations of the secrets of universe and spirituality are as follows prior to
1400 years ago:-
·
Philosophers like Aristotle, Plato and Socrates
were born who left treasures of ILM to follow.
·
Architecture: How the house
were carved in mountains
·
Pyramids of Egypt: Even the modern
technology cannot
build such pyramids.
·
Preservation of
bodies: dead human bodies were preserved with such chemicals that those will remain intact for hundreds of years
·
Etc.
Brothers and Sisters! 1400 years ago
when Mohammad
Ibne Abdullah (SAW) were commissioned
as Khatim
ul Anbiyya (Last Prophet) He (SAW) educated and trained Sahaba Karam and
they explored the properties of
the creations of the universe. This exploration is reflected in the extract as
below from The
Book of Knowledge under the chapter ‘Mohammad’ (SAW) page no. 111 to
112.
The Saracens were excellent craftsmen. The sword blades of
Equal skill was shown in the fashioning of vases, lamps
, and other articles of copper, bronze, and silver; in the weaving of carpets and rugs
, which are
still unsurpassed; and in moulding of fine glass and pottery
.
A leading form of Muslim art was developed in architecture. The arabesque decoration of walls, carpets, hangings etc., took
the place of drawings of the human figure, a form of art severely restricted by
tradition in Islam.
Sweetmeats, syrups essences, and perfumes were produced.
Paper, without which invention of
printing would have been valueless, came to Europe through Muslims.
The finest leather goods came from Cordova
and Morocco.
In literature, particularly poetry,
and in science the Muslims attained a high degree of development.
The University of Cairo at one time had 12,000 students.
In Spain in the 10 century a library of 400,000 manuscripts is said to have been collected.
Learned Arabs did much to preserve and spread the writings of
the great Greek philosopher Aristotle,
after he had been all but forgotten in Western Europe.
In mathematics, especially algebra
, Muslims scholars led the world.
The so – called “Arabic” numerals used today were introduced into
Europe by Arab scholars who brought
them from India.
In Astronomy, medicine
, and chemistry
they made various
notable advances.
The richness and grace of the characteristic Muslim
architecture are evident in
many lands, from Spain to India.
Brothers and Sisters! The above
extracts clearly depict that the base for the progress in technology which involved the study of invisible forces of the universe
was made by the Muslims by the study of the Qur’an, the ‘Word of Allah’.
Brothers
and Sisters!
The secret behind the above achievements is that when the Muslims used to concentrate their minds
on meaning of the Verses of the Qur’an, they in fact were devoting their attention to Allah (SWT), whereby the connection
is developed between the Muslim and بسم اللہ الرحمٰن
الرحیم
Allah (SWT). As the Muslim is in the learning process, so Allah (SWT)
kept on exposing the properties hidden within the Verses of the Qur’an,
which was then ascribed and that kept on being forwarded to the future generations.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
In legal terms all human beings
are equal in the eyes of Allah whether he is a Muslim or non – Muslim. Whoever will
concentrate in making research upon the creations of the universe the secrets will be exposed to him. But the difference between the
research of Muslim and non – Muslim is that Muslim makes research in order to recognise the Lone Entity of Allah so that he is submissive to Him (SWT) every moment of
his life while non – Muslim makes research for material
gains.
·
When Muslim makes research
in order to recognise Allah then the Blessings of Allah are showered upon him and properties are exposed readily. But when non – Muslim makes research
for material gains then Blessings of Allah do
not accompany him and before
he will reach the right conclusion there will errors committed i.e. the research will be upon trial and error basis.
·
Muslims attribute everything to Allah i.e. the properties of every atom are in control of Allah but non Muslims attribute these
to the material
substance i.e. it has the powers in itself.
·
Muslims believe that every atom acts and reacts upon the behest of Allah but non – Muslims are of the
opinion that every atom acts and reacts on its own.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Although both
Muslims and non-Muslims can reap the material benefits from the researches in this world, but in the life hereafter the position
will be different. Muslims will be rewarded because they attributed everything within the powers of
Allah and non – Muslims attributed the
power to the atoms which is ‘Shirk’ (to enjoin another entity with the Entity of Allah). Allah has warned that Mushrikun will go to Hell and Muslims will live in
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 73
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
So that Allah will punish
the hypocrites men and
women, and the men and women who are al-Mushrikun (polytheists, idolaters, pagans,
disbelievers, in the Oneness of Allah, and His Messenger Mohammed (SAW)). And
Allah will pardon (accept the repentance of) the true believers of the Islamic Monotheism, men and women. And Allah is Ever Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
Speaking
Brothers and Sisters! We speak to
convey our sentiments,
thoughts to other people or we read the book while uttering the text or make
speech. When we speak
the words are flowing in a sequence and they are making sense where the listeners can understand the context and
substance of the talk or conversation.
Brothers
and Sisters!
But have we ever thought about what is the process behind the voice i.e. who is in control of the thinking, how the thoughts
converted into words?
Brothers and Sisters! Let us look into
what parts of the human body are designated to the element of speaking.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
There is ‘voice box’ underneath the throat. When
one wants to speak it becomes active and a sound erupts.
·
The job of voice box is to create voice. For example: if the
tongue is not
moved then there will be a constant voice erupting from the voice box just like when
some body screams.
·
When the tongue is moved side by side or up and down then the voice
gets broken in the sense that
some time there is voice and sometime there is pause. The process of ‘play’ and ‘pause’ converts the voice into words and this is how
the language comes into
existence.
Brothers and Sisters! The point to highlight the fact is that all the process: thoughts,
transmission, voice box getting active, movement of tongue; are under
the control of human mind or under the control of an ‘Unseen’ force?
Brothers and Sisters!
·
If it is under the control of human being then a full and comprehensive
programme had to be installed in mind which would have activated the voice box,
transmitted thoughts, moved tongue up and down and side by side just like when a programme
is installed in central processing unit i.e. computer because
unless and until every step of the programme (CPU) in installed in CPU it will not process any data.
·
As nothing has been installed in mind by human technology then one has to
admit that there is an ‘Unseen’ force who has installed this programme in human mind
and that cannot be other than that the Creator of human being i.e. Allah (SWT). If a non – believer attributes it to the ‘Nature’ then He is
admitting ‘existence’ of ‘Unseen’ force.
Imagination
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Imagination is such an element that when one thinks about a
particular event, or listens to a story or an event a kind of movie starts emerging in mind
which is termed as imagination.
·
When a tale or story or an event is told then many things revolve
in imagination e.g. people, place, nature of event or story etc. When the story
is being told the picture of everything in the event starts emerging in the
imagination e.g. portrait of people, shape of the environments and how the
incident happened.
Brothers and Sisters! The question emerges who is behind the
eruption of imagination? Is it human mind or an ‘Unseen’ force?
Brothers and
Sisters! Again if it is human mind
then before it can activate the process of imagination then a programme had to be
installed in mind i.e. learned from a school. But
this has not been the case. So one has to
admit that it is an ‘Unseen’ force who has installed
this programme in human mind and that Entity cannot be other than Lone
Entity of Allah (SWT). If a non – believer attributes it to the ‘Nature’ then He is admitting ‘existence’ of ‘Unseen’ force.
Breathing
Brothers and Sisters! No doubt
everyone believes and admits that every human being breaths every moment of his
life. The breathing process is through nose and mouth. If both nose
and mouth are shut then one cannot breath and the person will die.
Brothers and Sisters! Oxygen is within the
environments which is inhaled and goes to the lungs and then it comes out in
the form of carbon
dioxide. Oxygen cleansed the pollution in the lungs and when it gets polluted it turns
into carbon dioxide and comes out of mouth.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
No one makes an intention to breath or takes any action to
breath. However, likewise information technology there has to be a programme installed which keeps
activating the process of breathing because without a command nothing can be
processed.
·
So if human mind has not devised and installed a programme then it
is the Creator of human body who
has devised and installed the programme in the human mind which is keep on working and an ‘Unseen’ force is behind
the breathing process.
Movement
of Body Parts and Facial Expressions
Brothers and Sisters! No doubt
everybody believes and admits that when one is speaking or delivering a speech
or indulges in conversation there is movement of body parts, especially,
hands and there are also facial expressions which correspond to the nature of the speech or conversation.
Brothers and
Sisters! For the sake of arguments
let us assume that when one is speaking then it is
the human mind behind it. But who regulates the movements
of hands and reflects the facial expressions. Is this under the control of the person who is in conversation or delivering a speech?
Brothers and Sisters! The answer will
definitely be ‘No’. So if the answer is ‘No’ then one has to believe in the ‘Unseen’ force who is in
control of everything.
CONCLUSION
Brothers and Sisters! People who believe in the existence of
Allah, they would definitely admit that everything is under the control of Lone Entity of Allah (SWT).
But the people who do not believe in the existence of Allah or have secular mentality they
will attribute it to ‘Nature’.
Brothers and Sisters! Fair enough.
If the non – believers and people with secular mentality
believe that it is regulated by ‘Nature’, then at least they have admitted in the existence of ‘Unseen’ force.
Brothers
and Sisters!
The people who believe in ‘Nature’ in their opinion when a human being
dies then that is the end of him likewise other things that when
they are consumed in any form their existence diminishes forever.
And as those things will not grow again, similarly when the human body is
either cremated or buried with the passage of time they will become part of the soil and there is no chance of revival and therefore there is no life after death.
Brothers and Sisters! This aspect can
be dealt with in this manner.
Introduction
Brothers and Sisters! When the body of Hazrat Adam
(PBUH) was created then Allah blew the soul in His (PBUH)
body which made the body active. (to be revised)
Translation Surah Sajdah Ayat no. 7 – 9
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Who made everything He has created good and He began the creation of man from clay.
The he (Allah) made his offspring from semen of despised water (male and female sexual discharge).
Then He (Allah) fashioned him is due proportion, and breathed into him the soul (created by
Allah for that person); and he gave you hearing (ears) sight (eyes) and hearts. Little is the thank you give!
And it was the souls of the offspring
of Hazrat Adam (PBUH) which were derived from His loin. The agreement
was entered between Allah and souls:
Translation Surah Al A’raf Ayat no 172
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth
from Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed (or from Adam’s loin his offspring (souls) and made them testify as to themselves (saying):
“Am I
not your Lord?”
They
said: “Yes! We Testify”,
Brothers and Sisters! These were the souls who testified that Allah is
their Lord. Therefore, the accountability will be from souls and not from human body because human
body is of no use.
Brothers and Sisters! This aspect can
be assessed and judged that it takes around four months before the Nutfah (semen) is
developed in the uterus and a body is formed. When the body is fully formed then the soul is blown in the body and
child becomes active. If there is a miscarriage before the soul is blown then it is
termed as miscarriage. But if the
child, for some reason or the other dies before birth then he is termed as dead child born.
Translation Surah Sajdah Ayat no. 9
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Then He (Allah) fashioned him is due proportion, and breathed into him the soul (created by
Allah for that person);
Brothers and Sisters! When a person dies i.e. soul is taken out
of his body then if any one will hit the body there will not be any reaction and it can be cut just like any other thing
e.g. meat,
wood etc. When the soul was in the body and somebody hit the body, in
fact, it used to be the soul which was being hurt; the injury on the body reflects that the soul is being hurt.
Brothers
and Sisters!
However, Allah is
Aleem. Allah Knew that human mind will raise
this question that how
the dead body parts will be given life when they had been extinguished with the passage of time. Allah revealed in the Qur’an that Allah has power to do so.
Brothers and Sisters! Allah has
revealed the resurrection
of dead bodies in the Qur’an a number of times. As below are three times
revelations which deal with the resurrection of bead bodies.
No.

QUESTION
RAISED BY NABI (PROPHET) OF ALLAH
Brothers
and Sisters!
Although the Prophets believed that there will be life after death and the dead bodies will be resurrected, but they wanted to observe so that they can tell the people
with conviction.
No.
(i): Dialogue between Hazrat Ibrahim and Namrood
Brothers and Sisters! Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) is among
the high ranked Prophets.
When He (PBUH) went to the King Namrood to convey the Message of Allah, Namrood asked Him (PBUH) what are the qualities of your Allah. Hazrat Ibrahim
(PBUH) replied to the effect that He (SWT) Allah gives life and cause death.
Brothers and Sisters! Namrood replied
that I can
do this as well. So he called for a prisoner whose sentence was determined as death. So he set him free. And he picked
up one person who was innocent he had him killed. As below is the relevant Verse:
Translation Al Baqrah Ayat no. 258
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibrahim (Abraham) about his Lord
(Allah), because Allah had given him the kingdom?
When
Ibrahim (Abraham) said (to him): “My Lord (Allah) is He Who gives
life and causes
death.”
He said: “I give life and cause
death”.
Ibrahim (Abraham) said: Verily, “Allah causes
the sun to rise from the east;
then cause it you rise from the west.” So the disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allah guides not the people, who are
Zalimun (wrongdoers).
No.
(ii): Dialogue Between Allah and Nabi Hazrat Uzair (PBUH)
Brothers and Sisters! Nabi Hazrat Uzair (PBUH) was
passing through a city which was destroyed and all the inhabitants were dead. All of sudden He (PBUH) called
out: “Oh!
How will Allah ever bring it to life after its death?”
Brothers and Sisters! Allah caused
him to die for one hundred years. When He (PBUH) was given life after 100
years Allah asked Him (PBUH) to the effect: How long you remain (dead). This meant
that after how long you have woken up. He (PBUH) replied to the effect: I was asleep for
one day or part of the day.
Allah replied to
the effect:
No! You remained
asleep (dead) for 100 years.
Brothers and Sisters! To show Him
(PBUH) the proof that he has been dead for 100 years. Allah asked him to look
at His (PBUH) food and water which were
fresh but His (PBUH) donkey was dead i.e. there was only skeleton of bones.
Brothers and Sisters! Then with the
Command of Allah the flesh started to emerge on the bones of the
donkey and the donkey became alive.
As below is the relevant
Verse:
Translation Al Baqrah Ayat no. 259
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Or like the one who
passed by a
town and it had tumbled over its roofs.
He said: “OH! How will Allah ever bring it to life after its death?”
So Allah caused him to die for a hundred
years,
then raised him up (again).
He (Allah) said: “How
long did
you remain (dead)?”
He (the man) said: “(Perhaps) I remained
(dead) a day or part of a day”.
He (Allah) said: “Nay! You have remained
(dead) for a hundred years, look at your food
and drink,
they show no change; and look at your donkey! And thus We have made of you a sign for the people. Look
at the bones, how
We bring then together and clothe them with flesh.”
When
this was clearly shown to him, he said: “I know (now) that Allah is Able to do
all things.
No.
(iii) Dialogue between Allah and Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH)
Brothers and Sisters! In view of the
above Hazrat
Ibrahim (PBUH) also wanted to observe how Allah will give life to the dead bodies. So He petitioned Allah to show Him (PBUH) how the dead will become alive on the Day of Resurrection.
Allah asked Him (PBUH) to take four
birds and develop affections with them. Then
kill them and cut them in small pieces and mix their meat. Then make four
portions and put them separately on
top of the separate hills and call them and they will come to you. Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) did that
and when He (PBUH) called them they flew towards Him (PBUH).
Brothers and Sisters! The question
arises did Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) not believe that Allah can give life to dead
bodies. When He (PBUH) petitioned Allah to show Him (PBUH) how He (SWT) will give
life to dead bodies, Allah asked Him (PBUH) the same question: do you not believe
in it? He (PBUH) replied to the effect: no doubt I believe in it but I
just wanted to look at.
Brothers and Sisters! This aspect
that one believes in something on the basis of trust but then
sometimes the actual evidence has to be looked at. For example:
if a person tells that he holds Master’s degree people will believe in him. But
when he will go for an interview then he has to show his Master’s degree to his interviewer.
Brothers and Sisters! This aspect of ILM (knowledge) and sight of the ILM is revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Al Takathur Ayat no. 5 – 7
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Nay! If you know with sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would
not have been occupied yourselves in worldly things).
Verily, you shall see the blazing Fire
(Hell)!
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight.
Brothers and Sisters! The centre point of Verse no 5
is that one believes on the basis of knowledge e.g. a
candidate told that he holds master’s degree. But when he presents the master’s
degree then the basis of knowledge is verified by sight which is
reflected in Verse no. 7.
Brothers and Sisters! As Namrood had raised
this issue, therefore
Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) thought to observe how Allah gives life to dead so that he (PBUH) can
convey the Message of Allah with strong contention.
Brothers and Sisters! As below are the
relevant Verses of the Qur’an:
Translation Al Baqrah Ayat no. 260
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
(Abraham) said:
“My
Lord! Show me how you will give life to dead?”
He (Allah) said: “do
you not believe?
He [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said:
“Yes (I believe), but to
be stronger in Faith.
He (Allah) said: “Take four
birds,
then cause them to incline towards you (then slaughter them, cut them into pieces), and then put a portion of them on every hill, and call them, they will come
to you in
haste. And know that Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
No 2
QUESTION RAISED BY PEOPLE
Brothers and Sisters! When Anbiyya e
Karam used to tell people that there is life after death they used to dispute it that how the
dead bodies whose existence would be diminished and only bones will remain, can
be given life.
People
of Hazrat Hud (PBUH) or Hazrat Salahe (PBUH)
Brothers and Sisters!
·
In the Qur’an it has been revealed that the Nabi of Allah were
either Hazrat
Hud (PBUH) or Hazrat Salahe (PBUH),
when He (PBUH) conveyed the Message of Allah to follow His Guidance and that there
will be accountability on the Day of Judgement, the Chiefs of the people
used to repudiate His teachings in
the following grounds:-
o
The Nabi is just like them who eats and drinks same things other people
eat, so how he can be a Nabi of Allah. And if they followed Him (PBUH) they
will lose. Brothers and Sisters! Because Chiefs were authority of the people
or tribe and Nabi of Allah was
like an ordinary
person then how can they follow the guidance of an ordinary person?
o
The Chiefs used to joke that Nabi of Allah tells them that after death your body will
become dust then how come the dust and bones be given life?
o
The Chiefs used to say that the life span is limited to this
world only and there shall be no life after death and this man is a liar who proclaims
to be Nabi of Allah.
·
When the Chiefs
did not believe Him (PBUH), then He (PBUH) made Dua’a (Prayed) to Allah to help
Him as the Chiefs called him a liar. Allah
replied to the effect that don’t worry after few days they will regret. Thereafter Allah sent a torment which turned the Chiefs and their followers into rubbish.
·
Thereafter Allah created another generation who would
follow the Guidance
of Allah.
Brothers and Sisters! As below are the
Verses of the Qur’an:
Translation Al Mo’minun Ayat no. 33 – 44
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And the chiefs of his people who
disbelieved and denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, and whom We had given
luxuries and comfort of this life, said: “He is no more than a human being like you,
he eats of what you eat, and drinks of what you drink.
“If you were to obey a human
being like yourselves,
then verily, you indeed would be losers
“does he promise you that when you have died and have become dust and bones, you shall come out alive (Resurrected)?
“Far, very far is that which you are promised!
“There is nothing but our life of this world! We die and we live! And we are not going
to be resurrected!
“He is only a man who has invented
a lie against Allah,
and we are not going to believe in him.”
He (Prophet) said: “O my Lord! Help me because they deny me.”
(Allah) said: “in a little while, they are sure to be
regretful.”
So as-Saihah (torment – awful
cry overtook them in
truth (justice), and we made them as rubbish of dead plants. So away with the people who are Zalimun (polytheists,
wrongdoers, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, disobedient to his
Messengers)
Then, after them, We created other generations.
No Nation can advance their term, nor can
they delay it.
Then We sent Our Messengers in succession.
Every time there came to a nation their Messenger, they denied him; so We made
them follow one another (to destruction), and We made them Ahadith (the true
stories for mankind to learn a lesson from them). So
away with people who believe not.

CONFRONTATION
BETWEEN KHATIM UL ANBIYYA (SAW) AND KUFFAR AND MUSHRIKEEN
Brothers and Sisters! Mohammed Ibne
Abdullah (SAW) is Khatim ul Anbiyya. He (SAW) also faced the same
problems, difficulties, hindrances, obstacles from the people and Chiefs when He (SAW)
conveyed the Message
of Allah. They also raised the issue of how the dust and bones can be given life.
Brothers and Sisters! Before dealing
with issue of dust and bones Allah revealed in the Qur’an His Blessings upon
them in every aspect of life and thereafter revealed to the effect that If He
(SWT) can create ‘Fire’ from a green tree
, how He (SWT) cannot give life to dust and
bones.
Translation Surah Ya Seen Ayat no. 80
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
He (Allah) who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when
behold you kindle therewith.
Brothers and Sisters! As below are the Blessings and facts which
are revealed in the Qur’an:
·
The Kuffar and Mushrekeen termed the Verses of Qur’an as poetry. But Allah repudiated this and
revealed that the Qur’an is Book of Guidance where It (Qur’an) warns
the disbelievers of their end.
·
Allah created animals for mankind. Some of them are used to consume and some are
used for riding and otherwise.
·
They believe in gods other than Allah and they also believe that
they will help them. But Allah repudiated their assertion that they will not be
able to help them in any way because they are not in existence.
·
Allah reveals that human mind does not realise that he was
created from a drop of sperm and he has forgotten his origin and started
arguing that how
come Allah will give life to bones which have become dust.
·
Allah replies that if He (SWT) can have the fire emerge from a
green tree, which on rational basis seems impossible,
so He (SWT) can give life to bones.
·
Allah reveals He (SWT) has created all the heavens and the earth
and He (SWT) has the power that He (SWT) Commands for something and that emerges in no time.
·
Allah reveals that everything will revert to him.
Brothers and Sisters! As below are the
Ayats of the Qur’an:
Translation Ya-sin Ayat no. 69 – 83
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And We have not
taught him
(Mohammed (SAW)) poetry, nor is it suitable for him. This is only a Reminder and a plain
Qur’an.
That he or it (Mohammed (SAW) or the
Qur’an) may give warning to him who is living (a healthy mind – the believer), and that Word
(charge) may be justified against the disbelievers (dead, as they reject the
warning).
Do they not see that We have created for
them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that they are their owners.
And We have subdued them unto them so
that some of them they have for riding and some they eat.
And that have (other) benefits from them, and they get (milk) to
drink. Will they not then be grateful?
And they have taken
besides Allah Alihah
(god), hoping that they might be helped (by those so-called gods).
They cannot help them, but they will be brought forward as a
troop against those who worshipped them (at the time of Reckoning).
So let not their speech, then, grieve
you (O Mohammed (SAW)).
Verily we know what they conceal and what they reveal.
Does not man see that we have created him
from Nutfah (mixed
made and female sexual discharge – semen drops). Yet behold he (stands forth)
as an open opponent.
And that he puts forth for Us a parable, and forgets his own creation. He says:
“Who will give life to these bones after
they are rotten and have become dust?”
Say: (O Mohammed (SAW)) “He (Allah) will give life
to them Who
created them for first time! And He is the Knower of every creation!”
He Who produces for you fire
out of the green tree,
when behold you kindle therewith.
Is not He Who created the heavens
and the earth, Able to create the like of them? Yes,
indeed! He
is All-Knowing Supreme Creator.
Verily, His command, when He intends a
thing, is only that He says to it, “Be!” – and it is.
So glorified is He and exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in whose
Hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him you shall be returned.
LOGICAL
AND RATIONAL REASONS THAT DUST AND BONES CAN BE GIVEN LIFE
No
1
Brothers and Sisters! No doubt
everybody accepts and admits that a ‘seed’ has all the properties where when it is
sown in the earth and watered then it grows, stememerges, branches emerge on the
stem, leaves emerge on the branches
, flowers
and fruit
grow on the
branches and properties are inflicted in every part of the tree where taste
emerges and then
they are given powers to act and react when consumed.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
When a person dies then his body is either buried or cremated.
·
The body which is cremated every part of the body turns into ashes which is either
retained or thrown in the rivers or seas.
·
The body, when it is buried, with the passage of time it turns into dust and the bones start to lose their strength and become
hallow because bone marrow evaporates from them.
Brothers
and Sisters!
However, the properties
in the dust
and bones remain intact just
like properties remain in the seed.
Brothers and Sisters! Everybody accepts and admits that every seed
cannot grow in one type of land and same environments. For example: seed of wheat needs a different fertility of land and environments than rice. Moreover, seed of rice needs a lot more watering than wheat.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Human body when it turns into dust it becomes like a seed. Every particle of the dust of body is like a seed. Therefore if it is planted in the
appropriate land and water it with appropriate water then, theoretically, human body will
grow.
·
When a seed grows into a produce then it is given life. If life is not given to produce it
will remain
dead i.e. non – existent. Non – existent in the sense that if it cannot act or react then it is of
no use.
·
Similarly when the
human body will grow it will be given life. The life of human body is soul.
·
When all the offspring was taken out of the loin of Hazrat Adam (PBUH) it was taken in the form of souls.
·
a soul is picked up from Alim e Arwah and inflicted or transmitted in body of the child where he is
given life.
·
When a person dies, in fact, it is his soul which is taken out and then it is placed in another Alim e Arwah i.e. the soul who has returned.
·
So when the body
will grow from dust then the soul will be returned to his body and the person will become alive.
Brothers
and Sisters!
The dust of the human bodies remains in this world whether they are buried, thrown in rivers or seas and blown in
the air. Wherever they are, Allah
will create the environments where the bodies will grow and souls will be
returned to respective bodies.
Brothers and Sisters! When a person dies it is
tantamount to sleeping. However, death is a sleep where the awakening is on Doomsday. In worldly life the interval is short where one sleeps at night
and wakes up in the morning. While asleep one is not active in any respect.
Brothers and Sisters! Allah has
revealed in the Qur’an that when a person dies it is just like if he was asleep.
Translation Surah Ya sin Ayat no 51 – 52
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
And the Trumpet will be blown (i.e. the second blowing) and behold from the graves they will come out quickly to their Lord.
The will say: “Woe to us! Who has raised us from our place of sleep.” (it will be said to them): “This is what the Most Gracious (Allah)
had promised, and the Messengers spoke truth.
Brothers and Sisters! The above representations are to make the scientific human mind understand that
how the dust of the human body can grow and his soul will be returned to him so that he is answerable to his deeds in the world.
No
2
Brothers and Sisters! It is natural phenomenon that if anything is in a position to tell information asked for then
that thing is alive. If the thing does not reply or tell anything then it is
tantamount to non – existent.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Based on the criteria that anything which can give
information asked for is alive then the body parts of a person who dies
remain alive.
How?
Cause
of Death
Brothers and Sisters! When a person
dies and if physicians want to know the cause of death the body parts are
examined and the cause of death can be determined. In other words body parts told the cause of
death. This fact has been revealed in the Qur’an that he body parts will speak:
Translation Surah Ha Meem Sajdah Ayat no 20 – 21
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Till, when they reach it (Hell fire), their hearing (ears) and their eyes, and their skins will testify against them as
to what they used to do.
And they will say to their skins: “why do you testify against us?”.
They will say: “Allah has caused us to speak – he causes all things
to speak: and he created you the first time, and to Him you are made to
return.”
DNA
Brothers and Sisters! DNA of the body
parts determines the identification of the human
being
Brothers and
Sisters! The body parts memorise each and every aspect of the features of human body
and personality and character. The
physicians have made analysis of the
bodies of the people who died thousands of years
ago. With the analysis they
have not only ascertained the cause
of death but they have fed the data
in computer and the computer produced how the dead person looked like.
Brothers and Sisters! The body parts
can speak. This has been
revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation Surah Ya sin Ayat no 65
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
This Day, We shall seal up their mouths,
and their hands will speak to Us,
and their legs will bear witness
to what they used to earn.
Brothers and Sisters! Although the
perspective of the above Verse relates to the Day of Judgement when the body
parts will tell how they have been used in the world, but it also applies to in
worldly life after death. When a person dies he cannot speak but when the body parts are asked
by scientific means they tell the story.
Brothers and
Sisters! In our day to day life,
in fact, the personality and character of a person is judged from body language and also circumstantial evidence. For
example: criminals are not believed by their word of mouth but there statements are assessed on the basis of body language and face expressions and reflection of eyes.
How
Body Parts can Memorise the Deeds?
Brothers and Sisters! A Japanese
scientist Dr
Masaru Emoto have
made a research on water and composed a book: The Hidden Messages in Water.
He writes in his book about
the composition of human body:
In fact, I have found the answer, and it is just this: The average
human body is 70 per cent water.
We start our life being 99 per cent water as fetuses. When we are
born, we were 90 per cent water, and by the time we reach adulthood were down
to 70 per cent. If we die of old age, we will probably be about 50 percent
water. In
other words, throughout our lives we exist mostly as water.
Brothers and Sisters! The context and
substance of the above extract depicts that when a person dies then if:
·
he is buried then his water evaporates from the body and whatever is left is soil which the man is
made of and the bones also become dry as the water in them and bone marrow
which is liquid evaporates.
·
If the body is cremated then the water in the body is diminished by burning in
fire and the soil man is made of
turns into ashes.
Brothers and Sisters! Dr Emoto has
discovered that water has ability to copy and memorise. He writes:
So water has the ability to copy and memorise information. We may also say that the water of the ocean has memories of the
creatures that live in the ocean. The earth’s glaciers may well
contain millions of years of the planet’s history.
Water circulates around the globe, flowing through our bodies, and
spreading to the rest of the world. If we are capable of reading
this information contained in the memory of water, we would read a story of
epic proportions.
To understand
water is to understand the cosmos, the marvels of nature and life itself.
Brothers and Sisters! Dr Emoto writes:
I long wondered if it might be possible to find physical evidence of the ability of the water to memorise information –
might there be some way of seeing it with physical eye.
And one day I casually opened a book to words that jumped of the
page: “No
two snow crystals are exactly the same.”
The next moment I thought, if I freeze water and look at the crystals, each one will look totally unique. And that moment marked my first step on an adventure into a new
unexplored world. My plan was to freeze water and take pictures of the crystals.
My first step was to lease an extremely accurate microscope and
look at water frozen in a kitchen refrigerator. However, since the photographs
were taken at room temperature, the ice would soon melt. It took quite some
time before we were able to get any photographs of crystals.
After two months of experiments, we finally succeeded in getting
one photographs. The water gave us a photograph of a beautiful hexagonal crystal. I was filled with excitement when the researcher came to me with
the news.
When we graphed the formation of the crystals, we realised that
different water formed different crystals.
Some of them were clearly similar, some were deformed, and in some types, no crystals at all formed.
First I looked at the crystals of tap water from different
locations. The water of
However, within natural water, no matter where
it came from – natural springs, underground rivers, glaciers, and the upper
reaches of rivers – complete crystals formed.
Brothers and Sisters! It is natural phenomenon that
once one thing is created or produced but its existence cannot vanish, though its shape will change and its original properties will
remain.
Brothers and Sisters! Let us take an
example:
·
a seed is sown where a tree grows,
·
the matter of the tree is wood,
·
wood can be burnt,
·
when wood is burned it turns into coal,
·
when coal are burned they
turn into ashes
·
when ash is used, e.g. to wash utensils it gets mixed in the water
Brothers and Sisters! Although, on the
face the tree and by – products have vanished but its ‘crux’ remains in the form of ashes mixed in
water. Now if the water is analysed the results will show that these ashes
belong to the specific tree just like DNA of thousands year old dead body which will lead
to the figure of the person who died through the process of information
technology.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Let us suppose if we make a movie of all the processes i.e. origin
of seed to washing the utensils where ashes were mixed in the water and reverse it then it will come back to the grown tree.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
Now human body is made of soil and water. When soul was transmitted in the body it became active and started to act and react i.e. doing good deeds and bad deeds.
·
When soul is taken out from the body it becomes inactive i.e. it cannot
move. In other words body and soul have been separated. Soul has been placed
in Heavens and body is either buried or cremated.
·
Whether the body
is buried, with the passage of time the water will evaporate and soil will turn into dust. In cremation of the body the water evaporates in short time and
the soil is turned into ashes which are either kept in safe place or thrown in river or in the air.
·
If the bodies
are buried, with the passage of time, they will also become part of the water or spread in
the air because history tells that the graved yards have been excavated and turned into towns and cities. Obviously, when the graveyards
are excavated the remains of the human bodies in the form of dust will be spread in the air.
Brothers
and Sisters!
However, one thing is certain
that
wherever the particles of the dust of human bodies are, they will remain within the boundaries of
Heaven and the earth
and they cannot escape beyond the boundaries of heavens and earth.
How?
Surah
Rehman Ayat no. 33
O assembly of jinn and men! If
you have power to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass
beyond (them)! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority
(from Allah)
Brothers and Sisters! In this day of
age the concept of ‘Global Warming’ is a ‘Hot’ issue.
Brothers and Sisters! In short, it is
the effect
and impact of the industrialisation where smoke from the chimneys, cars and
otherwise has spread within the environments which have made the environments polluted. In other words particles of everything are within the
environments which include water evaporated from the bodies and the soil of the
body in the form of dust.
Brothers
and Sisters!
The scientist have discovered that even every word which is spoken that remains
within the environments and devices have been invented which can catch the voices and record them.
Brothers and Sisters! The scientist have also discovered that if
a mixtures is mix of a lot of mixes, each mix can be separated e.g. if pieces of wood, iron and sand are mixed those can be
separated.
Brothers and Sisters! On the basis of
theories that the:
·
dust of human bodies are within the environments
·
water evaporated from the bodies is within the environments
·
each mix can be separated
so, it is reasonable to assume that separate bodies can be formed
and when soul will be transmitted in bodies the human being will become alive.
Brothers and Sisters! Likewise water and soil
of the body can remain and also the words spoken can remain within the environments which are
tantamount to good deeds and bad deeds, so there will be accountability of every human
being.
Brothers and
Sisters! On the Day of Judgement human mind will
realise that as he has been doing bad deeds in the world and there will be punishment i.e. to live in
Hell, so he will try to deny
by word of mouth. But the word
of mouth will not be taken as evidence, therefore every part of the body will be asked to be a witness and this aspect has been revealed in the Qur’an:
Translation
Surah Ya sin Ayat no 65
This Day, We shall seal up their mouths,
and their hands will speak to Us,
and their legs will bear witness
to what they used to earn.
Brothers and Sisters! The context and substance of the above
Verse can be understandable that a criminal
in the court of law in this
world does not admit he is guilty. In this case the circumstantial evidence along with the documentary evidence is taken into account to determine the criminal as guilty
of the offence.
Brothers and Sisters! Science has
proved that water has ability to copy and memorising information. Dr
Emoto writes:
So water has the ability to copy and memorise information. We
may also say that the water of the ocean has memories of the creatures that
live in the ocean. The earth’s glaciers may well contain millions of years of
the planet’s history.
Brothers and Sisters! As below are the
examples of memory of water:
Love

You
Love
and Appreciation
Happiness

Peace

Anger
Brothers and Sisters! The pictures of the water crystals clearly show that it acts and reacts what is spoken to it and it has
memories and if some device is invented then it can tell the history.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Water is used
in every sphere of life:
cooking, drinking, bathing, washing clothes etc. etc. On the basis that water
has memory it can reasonably be assumed that while cooking whatever is uttered from mouth is also transmitted in the food. This is why Ulema e
Karam advise the Dhikr (remembrance) of Allah should be
made while cooking food so that goodness become part of the food.
CONCLUSION
Brothers and Sisters! The ‘crux’ of the matter is that for the sake of the people who do not believe in the Existence of Allah, they must admit that there must be a reason
that water has ability to copy
and memorise. If there is no concept of accountability then the ability of water
to copy and memorise is of no use.
Brothers and Sisters! This appear to
be Hikmah (Prudence) of
Allah behind revealing in the Qur’an a number of times about water being ascending
from Heavens; As below are
the relevant Verses:
Translation Surah Ar Ra’d Ayat no 17
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
He sends down water (rain) from the
sky, and the valleys flow according to their measure………
Translation Surah Al Hajj Ayat no 63
See you not that Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, and then the earth becomes green? Verily Allah is the Most Kind and Courteous, Well – Acquainted
with all things.
Translation Surah Luqman Ayat no 10
And We send down water (rain) from the
sky, and We cause (plants) of every goodly kind to grow therein.
Translation Surah Fatir Ayat no 27
See you not that Allah sends down water (rain) from the
sky, and we produce therewith fruits of various colours, and among the mountains are streaks white and red, of varying
colours and (others) very black.
Translation Surah Abasa Ayat no 25 – 31
We pour forth water in abundance, And
We split the earth in clefts, And we cause therein grain to grow, And grapes and clover plants
(i.e. green fodder for the cattle) And olives and date-palms, And gardens dense with many trees, And fruits and herbage.
Brothers
and Sisters!
It can be noticed that wherever Allah has revealed about the water being sent
from the heavens, it performs
different jobs
e.g. earth become green i.e. grass grows, fruits and vegetable grow which are
of different colours and taste. Brothers
and Sisters! It is reasonable to assume that although, on the face value,
water in itself is tasteless but it has such properties e.g. sweetness, saltish, bitter and different colours as well because everything which
grows from earth has a different colour and different taste. Brothers and Sisters! It can be further
assumed that as the produces have healing powers
in it, so as those produces have been the result of watering
the seeds, therefore, it is water which transmitted healing powers in the produces. So, basically it is the water which is the cause of cure
of health problems.
Brothers and Sisters! The above
representations clearly depict that body parts memorise the deeds of the human being. So if there is no accountability then the memory of the body
parts is of no
use.
NATURE
Brothers and Sisters! Philosophers and scientists and otherwise
who do
not believe in the existence of Lone Entity of Allah, they have formed an opinion that universe has been
in existence forever and will remain forever:
For example, Aristotle, the most famous of the Greek philosophers, believed the
universe had existed forever. Something eternal
is more perfect than something created.
Brothers and Sisters! Scientists also believe that universe is
the result of Big Bang theory where all the natural
substances blew up and this universe
came into existence. They attribute this theory with an example, that if monkeys start typing for millions of years then one
day they will type the sonnet of
Shakespeare. And this is how for millions of years the substance of
gases and otherwise were roaming around and there was a Big Bang where this universe was formed. Brothers and
Sisters! In fact, Big Bang theory is a very vast subject. However, for a
layman’s mind this example will suffice to understand how the universe came
into existence.
Brothers
and Sisters! Although
atheist philosophers and scientists and otherwise do not believe in the
existence of Allah but they
do believe in ‘Nature’
which is invisible.
Brothers and Sisters! Technically, ‘Nature’
is a sequence of
events where
visible and invisible things emerge. For example:
seed is sown in the soil, water it, effect and impact of the environments
is transmitted, where with the passage of time stem emerges,
branches emerge on the stem, leaves, flowers and fruits
emerge on the braches, properties and taste
is inflicted in fruits and every part of the tree. Every step since sowing the seed in the soil
is ‘Natural’ process. If in this natural process
single step is missing the fruits will not emerge.
Brothers and Sisters! On the basis of
the theory the universe is the result of Big Bang, one has to
believe in ‘Nature’ because
whatever the substances e.g. gases, minerals, acids, chemicals etc. etc. were roaming within the environments which
presumably was a big vacuum i.e. there were no heavens, earth, mountains, seas, water. The result of
the Big
Bang was that the universe was created i.e.
·
earth, sky, stars, galaxies, planets, sun, moon, mountains, seas,
water came into being,
·
earth was formed in such a way that properties were formed where it can grow food, sun had
assumed the powers to provide heat and also travel
from east to west which creates day and night.
Brothers and Sisters! Likewise universe came into
existence due to Big Bang theory e.g. earth, sky, sun, moon,
stars, similarly, it is safe to assume for the sake of argument, that
the gases, soil and water got mixed in such way that Apes; male and female, came
into being
and with the passage of time the evolutionary process led to human beings where
he can think, make research, observe, experiment and progress.
Brothers and Sisters! Question arises, how scientific developments
took place?
Brothers and Sisters! When scientists
observe and make research upon the properties of various things, they mix them in certain proportions to make a new product. On trial and error basis they reach
to a conclusion that if certain
things are mixed in certain proportions then the best results can be obtained i.e. a new product will emerge.
Brothers
and Sisters! Therefore,
it has to be accepted and admitted that all the substances:
materials, gases, acids, minerals etc. etc. were roaming around within the vacuum and at one
point of time
they got mixed in such a manner that heavens, earth, sun, moon, stars,
galaxies came into
being.
Brothers and Sisters! When human mind makes researches for the
scientific developments, in fact, he is looking into the ‘Nature’ i.e. what ‘Nature’ has devised,
because it cannot
be anything or anybody other than ‘Nature’ as human mind is product of the ‘Nature’.
Brothers and Sisters! Every natural
product is combination of gases, acids,
chemicals, materials and otherwise. For example: water is combination
of oxygen and hydrogen gases. So among
the mixture of substance roaming within the vacuum the gases; oxygen and
hydrogen got mixed when Big Bang occurred and the water came into being and Big Bang also created a big dig where water
flew and the dig became sea.
Brothers and Sisters! On the basis
of Darwinian
Theory human beings are evolution of Apes. Let us, on
the basis, for
the sake of argument, Allah is not in existence; look at how human mind developed the ‘Spiritual’ and ‘Moral’ values and how
concept of Allah and Anbiyya e Karam and Angels and Jinn (Spirits) and Books of Allah emerged.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Before we look into the development of evolution of Apes we have to assume that
environments: summer,
winter, spring, autumn, rainy season also came into existence because of the
Big Bang theory
as human life had to survive, produces have to grow from land and minerals had to be enriched
in mountains and matter had to be enriched in the mountains which can erupt, crude oil have to be enriched in deserts and
under the beds of the sea, winds were formed and there speed was
determined, waves were formed which were to carry
the message from one place to another e.g. information technology depends upon
waves etc. etc. etc. Brothers and
Sisters! All
these have to become in existence because the human life needed all these
things to survive and make research in the properties of the creations of the
universe.
Brothers and Sisters! When all the
above necessities were available then the evolution of Apes could have started because a mind needs environments to think.
Brothers and Sisters!
·
On
the assumption that male and female Apes were the result of Big Bang and their sexual urge was also the result of mixture
of the different matters which also gave rise to sentiments. Accidently the male and female
must have touched each other and they found a way to
satisfy their
sexual urge and
eventually they found the way to relieve
their sexual urge i.e. sexual
intercourse.
·
The Big Bang also made a base that when the sperms of male and
female will enjoin where it will give rise to pregnancy of the female Ape and the next generations started to
emerge.
·
The BIG Bang also inflicted the love and affection element in the hearts of parents and the
children so that they look after the children.
·
When the question of bringing up the children emerged then Apes mind started to think about the
ways to bring up the children i.e. feed the, cloth them and also have a shelter to live.
·
Apes mind must have devised a plan how to bring up the
children and then established values which will lead to a peaceful way of life.
·
Big
Bang must have
grown the wild plants in the land. The research was made on the wild plants and
then over the period of time seeds
of several produces
came into being and on experiment basis i.e. science, inventions and innovations
came into being which led to building houses, roads, canals,
excavation form mountains and seas which resulted in development of
agriculture, industry, trade: buying
and selling.
·
Buying and selling and day today life led to the development of moral, social,
commercial values which led to the development of jurisdiction in every sphere of
life.
·
With the passage of time the physical appearance of the Apes
started to change which led to the
figure of this age.
Brothers
and Sisters!
As above is a very rough
outline of the
development of way
of life which
resulted through Big
Bang and
evolution of Apes.
In other words Big
Bang
is the Creator
Brothers
and Sisters!
But is this, at
all, possible
that every creation is the result of Big Bang
and devising of moral, social, commercial values are the result of human mind?
Brothers and Sisters! A non
believer’s mind accepts that, as this
universe is the result of Big Bang so Big bang is the ‘Creator’. If Big Bang is not the ‘Creator’ then they have to admit that this universe is the result of ‘Nature’. They cannot deny the existence of an ‘Unseen’
force. Big Bang is a force but it
is ‘Unseen’. No one has seen, nor was it possible. Big Bang is just a theory which is based
upon assumption.
Brothers
and Sisters! Allah is the Creator of the Universe. The circumstantial evidence depicts that Hazrat Adam (PBUH) was created after the universe was created. So how could He (PBUH) see the creation of the universe? Similarly, Hazrat Adam (PBUH)
could not have seen the Creator i.e. Allah unless He (Hazrat Adam (PBUH)) were
created.
Brothers and Sisters! However, when Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were created and all the souls had been
extracted from His (PBUH) loin then Allah gathered all the souls and had meetings with them which is revealed in the Qur’an:
First
Meeting
Translation Surah Al Ahzab Ayat no 72
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
Truly, We did offer Al-Amanah (the trust or moral responsibility or
honesty and all that the duties which Allah has ordained) to the
heavens and the earth, and the mountains
but
they (heavens,
earth and mountains) declined to bear it and were afraid of it (i.e. afraid of
Allah’s Torment). But man bore it. Verily, he was unjust (to himself) and
ignorant (of its results).
Second Meeting
Translation Surah Al A’raf Ayat no 172
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth
from Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed (or from Adam’s loin his
offspring) and made them testify as to themselves (saying):
“Am I
not your Lord?”
They
said: “Yes! We Testify”,
Lest you should say on the Day of
Resurrection: Verily, we have been unaware of this.
CONCLUSION
Brothers and Sisters! Please read this article again and again to be convinced that Allah
exists otherwise it will be too late and there is no coming back. Alhamdu’lillah!
(All Praises to Allah) The Existence of Allah is based upon ‘Common Sense’ and:
Ayat:
No come back
·
the mind who does not believe in existence of Allah, there is sufficient evidence that Allah Exists. However, if he
is adamant in not believing in the Lone Entity of Allah then it is just
like to pay flute in front of
·
the mind who believes in the Lone Entity of Allah, the contents of the article will strengthen his belief
upon the Lone
Entity of Allah and he will be in a position to argue with the non –
believers.
CONCEPT
OF LIFE HEREAFTER
Brothers and Sisters! The concept of
life hereafter can be better explained by worldly example.
·
In normal terms the life span of a human being is:
o
birth
o
childhood
o
youth
o
old age
o
retirement
o
death
·
When a child is born then he is educated and thereafter enters
into practical
life and earns money to meet his day to day requirements. In anticipation that when one
will enter within the spectrum of old age he starts saving money as he will not be able to work.
·
In anticipation of old age the government devises policies where a certain percentage is deducted from salaries re
– pension
contribution and when one retires the government pays pension periodically.
·
In addition to state pension there are private companies as well who
inspire people to invest in pension plan where they will receive pension after
they will retire.
Brothers and Sisters! The centre point of the pension is that it is saving for the
retirement age when one will have relaxed life.
In other words it is an investment for the life which was to come after youth is diminished
i.e. life after
youth.
Similarly, there is life
after death.
Brothers and Sisters! In one’s worldly life one keeps
saving for his life after youth. These savings are saved by working hard in ones young life. If one will not save for his old age
then he will have a miserable life.
Brothers
and Sisters!
Creator of mankind is Allah. Allah has sent in this world to make preparation for the life hereafter. For this purpose Allah has devised
a life style which has to be followed. If that is followed then life after death will be comfortable and if that life style is not
followed then the
life hereafter will be miserable.
Brothers and Sisters! The concept of
reward and miserable can be understood by the example that if an employee does not render his services as
per the guidance of his employer he will be fired and he will not be paid. However, if he
will render his services as per the guidance of his employer he will be paid for his services
and he may be given bonus if he has rendered his services in amicable manner.
Wass’a’lam
[May Allah ‘Bless you]
PS:
HIKMAH
(PRUDENCE) OF NAME ‘ALLAH’
No 1
Brothers and
Sisters! You will notice that I have used the name ‘Allah’ in the letters
and article instead of ‘God’ unless it was necessary to use as reference. The reason to avoid the use of word ‘God’ is that if you
read it ‘backwards’ then see what it
will be. But if read ‘Allah’ backwards then, ignoring, ‘H’ it will
represent ‘Allah’. It may be thinking of a mischievous mind who translated name of Allah just by reversing the alphabetic of the name of the animal, you can
appreciate what I mean.

Brothers and
Sisters! In Arabic language ‘Allah’ is written:
Brothers and
Sisters! If you put your hands on the table and distance the fingers then
you will see that it reads as ‘Allah’ where it is right or left hand or the hands are upside down.
Brothers and
Sisters! If you twist the little finger and enjoin it to the third finger
it will read as:
Brothers and
Sisters! If you twist the thumb and enjoin index finger it will read as:
Brothers and
Sisters! Do you not think ‘Allah’ is Great that He (SWT) has designed the ‘hands’ is such a way
that it reminds human mind in respect of:
Lone Entity
of
‘Allah’
every moment of his life?
