The Work of God and the Word of God |
The Universe i.e.
the physical outer world is the work of God and the Quran is the true word of God.
Since the Source of
both the Universe and the Quran is the same One God,
there can never be any contradiction in His Laws in
the Universe and His Laws in the Quran.
Man is made of two entities:
the Hardware (body) and the Software (Self).
The solution to
problems of the human hardware lies in the work of God i.e.
the Universe or the physical/material outer world. All the
material needs of the body must be met by the
physical/material things. The growth, development and
wellbeing of man’s body are out of question without the
fulfillment of his physical/material needs. So research and
development in the physical/material world is absolutely
necessary to better meet the physical/material needs of the
human body. This is what the West is doing at the moment and
where the so-called Muslim of today lag far behind.
The solution to problems of
the human software lies in the true word of God, i.e. the
Quran. The growth, development and wellbeing of man’s
software can be best achieved only by living a life in
accordance with the word of God. The West either does not
believe in the existence of the human software or is trying to
solve its problems only by reason and without getting any
guidance from the Revelation i.e. the word of God. On the
other hand, the so-called Muslims have not only
ceased to make use of reason for nearly a thousand years but also
do not read the word of God for getting any guidance for the
development and wellbeing of the human software. They read
it predominantly, not for any good of the living but for the
dead, wishing peace for their "soul".
