"How unfortunate is the man who does not know that he has a God Who has power to do all that He wills. Our paradise lies in our God. Our highest delight is in our God for we have seen Him and have found every beauty in Him. This wealth is worth procuring though one might have to lay down one’s life to procure it. This ruby is worth purchasing though one may have to lose oneself to acquire it. O ye, who are bereft! run to this fountain and it will satisfy you. It is the fountain of life that will save you. What shall I do, and how shall I impress the hearts with this good news, and by beating what drum shall I make the announcement that this is our God, so that people might hear? What remedy shall I apply to the ears of the people so that they should listen?”
A living faith is that through which we can find the Living God. The Living God is He Who can make us a direct recipient of revelation, or could at least bring us in contact with one who has been a direct recipient of revelation. I convey this good news to the whole world that the God of Islam is such a Living God.
Answer to the FOUR Main Questions I found in the discussions on this Site:
a)Religion has led to problems – it is the distortion of religion that has caused
problems, while actual religious teachings have led to resolution of the same
problems time and again throughout history.
b) Religion is dogmatic – misled and misunderstood ‘religion’ can lead to dogma, but
not if understood as guided by God’s apostles.
c) Progress of man is not linked to religion – societies that progressed followed the
principles that are taught by religion, and the societies that declined did so because
they had stopped following those principles.
d) God’ is a product of human thought – universal quest, pre-historic evidence of
peoples’ belief in God, even before the prophets came, and majority are believers
prove otherwise. Factually it is not true that that there was no concept of God
originally and that it is a recent product of ‘organised religion’. Cycles of belief and
disbelief have occurred in history, with advent of prophets re-igniting belief and
consequent justice and development, which is then lost over time due to human
deviation from the original teachings, and the cycle is restarted with the advent of
the next prophet.
