{ Holy Qur'an, 2:255 }
In the beginning of our journey in life, people
always recognize the Creator of All for what He is; King of kings,.
Lord of lords,. and He shall reign for Ever and Ever. We hope for a long
happy life and if, God willing, there befalls any test and trial let it
be viewed as such with the hope that we /he/she will win the pleasure
of Allah in all things.
Yet, in the interim
between life and death there are certain distractions set for mankind to
test his mettle as a human being. All Power and all Strength is with
Allah [God, Most High!] and He has given Satan permission to play a role
in our lives.
Satan [accursed be he] has
given honor to his part, how many have not heard the well known expression,
" work like the devil". Allah says that, "Satan is ,to you, an enemy avowed."
For those of you who are
seeking knowledge about the creator of all things and to Whom we will all
be brought back, see that Allah invites your attention to look around and
see how Allah has spread out this earth for you and beautified it with
every imaginable thing with multicolored flowers, birds singing, mountains
and hills of every shade, winding rivers, valleys full of colorful, sparkling
lakes and every type of fruit of diverse varieties enjoyed and eaten by
man and those animals He created to serve man; this is common sense.
He expects you [all] materialists,
intellectuals, free thinkers to look around and see who has spread and
beautified the earth, where every thing testifies to the glory and plan
of Allah, and nothing happens due to an accident. Had this earth
or universe been the result of an accident then why is the sun's heat always
suitable for mankind? And why rain falls in measures and in fixed
seasons for growing crops, etc.? Thousands of things that even a
person with a small amount of common sense can come to the conclusion that
there is someone regulating all this. Just use your common sense
and find out who is doing everything around you and for whom?
You may call yourself
atheist or agnostic, or you may profess belief in one of the major religions
in the world today, no matter what or who you are, regardless of your political
beliefs, you and all of us will, one day return to our creator to stand
before Him with all our deeds set out before us for the Final Judgement.
Prepare yourself for a day when no soul will be concerned with any of the others.
