Muslims are – supposedly
– adherents of Islam. And, Islam is total submission to the Will of Allah, the
One and Only Creator and Sustainer of the entire Universe and of everything
therein.
Let alone submission to
Allah, but, first, do we believe in Him?
The sad fact is that most
of us do not! Although we loudly declare ourselves to be believers, our minds
are secretly assailed by doubts about Allah’s existence. The doubts persist
despite innumerable and proliferating evidences, in and around us, to
decisively dispel those doubts.
Take the most obvious
evidence – of one’s own self! Who is the architect and maker of this wonderful
mind securely placed in a wonderful body? Our parents? Needless to state that
they were just instruments used by the unseen Maker to meticulously fashion and
produce, with superhuman intelligence, a little human being, in its mother’s
womb, made ready to face the harsh, open, outside world.
The atheists catch at the
straw of the devious theory of evolution (based on the dubious principles of natural
selection and survival of the fittest) thrown at them by Darwin to deny that
any Power or Entity had consciously produced that little human being. They
cannot deny the superhuman intelligence that has undoubtedly gone into its
production. They cannot deny that in its making, an intimate awareness, of what
circumstances it would have to face, is wonderfully inherent. But still they deny
the hand of the superhuman Power making that little living thing happen! An
obviously nonsensical statement from supposedly scientific minds!!
In everything of this
Universe – whether animate or inanimate, and whether huge stars larger than our
Sun or tiny invisible atoms – the immense power of that Superpower is
unmistakably discernible, especially to a scientifically oriented knowledgeable
mind.
Yet, unfortunately, the
atheist satanically persists in denying the existence of that Superpower – whom
Muslims call Allah – controlling everything in His Creation. And, the so-called
Muslims – by and large – secretly
entertain the doubt that, maybe, the atheist is right!!
I have compelling reasons
for making that grievous statement.
But before I give the
reasons, I have here to point out another aspect of the Muslim Faith – the inalienable
belief that the Qur’aan is a pure and inalterable divine Book.
And there are evidences
galore showing its divinity. The evidences that I have myself verified are
mathematical in nature. Readers are invited to see what these are by clicking
my blog posts The
Twelve and Jesus=Adam.
There are many such amazingly fool-proof mathematical locks in the Qur’aan!
Readers can access my other writings on such evidences by clicking Signs.
Despite such an avalanche
of evidences, the Muslims tend to follow the atheist in their lifestyles! That
is proof enough – if proof is at all needed – that they (most of them, that is)
have little belief in Allah and the Qur’aan.
Had they that belief,
there would not be a miniscule minority of them studying the Qur’aan with grave
and serious understanding, as is the position in the world today. They do not
study the Qur’aan because they are not sure it is from Allah, pure and simple.
Had they been sure that they shall forever burn in Hell-fire for ignoring its
directives, they would study the Qur’aan, day and night, for fear of straying
away therefrom.
And even among those few who
sincerely believe in Allah, and in the Qur’aan being a divine Book, there are
those, in whom, unfortunately, the accursed Satan has subtly succeeded in inculcating
the misleading belief that the Qur’aan does not contain the complete code of
conduct for man to achieve salvation. Even those, well-known as scholars of
Islam, have come to believe that the Allah-given Deen is incomplete without the man-influenced, error-prone ahaadeeth!
These scholars are
seemingly blind to the fact that they are thereby contradicting the Qur’aan
itself! In several of its Verses it is unequivocally reiterated that it is a self-sufficient
Guide for man to tread the Path to Salvation. Please go through this
article in this regard.
When their scholars take
the lead in, in effect, disbelieving the divine Book, one can well imagine the
extent to which the Muslims have strayed into this disbelief.
And, so, in effect, an overwhelming
majority of them are Muslims only in name. No wonder then that Allah Almighty has
effectively withdrawn His Hand of Mercy from them. That is why they, as a
community, have become the proverbial whipping boy for every Tom, Dick and
Harry in the world today!
