A
person who is about to read a post knows that it has been written by an author for a specific
reason. It would not even occur to him that this post might have come into
being by chance. In the same manner, a few bricks resting on top of one another
make one think that they must have been brought to rest just so by someone
within a certain plan. Therefore, everywhere where there is an order – either
small or big – a founder and protector of this order must also exist. If, one day,
somebody came forward and said that raw iron and coal came together to form
steel by chance, which in turn constructed the Eiffel Tower again by chance,
would not he and those who believed him be regarded as insane?
The
claim of the theory of evolution, the unique method of denying the existence of
Allah, is no different from this. According to the theory, inorganic molecules
formed amino acids by chance, amino acids formed proteins by chance, and
finally proteins formed living creatures again by chance. However, the
probability of a living creature being formed by coincidence is less than the
probability of the Eiffel Tower being formed in the same manner, because even
the simplest living cell is more sophisticated than any man-made structure in
the world.
How
is it possible to think that the balance in the world came about by coincidence
when the extraordinary harmony of nature is observable even with the naked eye?
It is the most unreasonable claim to say that the universe, each point of which
suggests the existence of its Creator, has come into being on its own.
Therefore,
there should be an originator of the balance visible everywhere from our body
to the farthest corners of the inconceivably vast universe. So, who is this
Creator that ordained everything so subtly and created all?
He
cannot be any material being present within the universe, because His must be a
will that existed before the universe and created the universe therewith. The
Almighty Creator is One in Whom everything finds existence, yet Whose existence
is without any beginning or end.
Religion
teaches us the identity of our Creator Whose existence we discover with our
reason. Through what He has revealed to us as religion, we know that He is
Allah, the Compassionate and the Merciful, Who created the heavens and the
earth from nothing.
Although
most people have the capability to grasp this fact, they spend their lives
unaware of it. When they look at a landscape painting, they wonder who its
painter is. Later, they praise the artist at length for his beautiful work of
art. Despite the fact that they face numerous originals of the natural world he
painted the moment they turn around, they still disregard the existence of
Allah, Who is the only owner of all these beauties. In truth, no lengthy
research is needed to understand the existence of Allah. Even if one of us had
to live in a room from the time he was born, countless pieces of evidence in
this room alone would be enough for him to grasp the existence of Allah.
سبحانه وتعالىالله
