Kind: captions Language: en [Music] for hadche. [Music] Foream. Alhamdulillah. Continuing with the evidences for the existence of Allah subhana wa ta'ala the lord of the which is something that doesn't need really evidences it's as obvious as the fact that I'm speaking and you're listening and as one of these evidences which is the of reason or intellect uh this is something that is also an obvious one and is related to the f and when we talk about the reason is not the reason of one individual versus the other. A universal level of reasoning that all human beings they have all human beings would agree that a would require to have a a creation has to have a creator. That's what creation means. Right? If it's created, that means someone has to have created it. So how can matter be as even more easy to understand than this? And this is anyone that has a sound mind would understand that. That's why when the he was asked about the existence of Allah. He said clearly the dropping of the animal in the desert is a sign that there was a cattle or there was an animal there. And the footsteps shows that someone walked here. So skies with these magnificent uh and power creation of Allah and stars and so on and and earth and land with all kinds of paths and mountains and rivers and so on and oceans all of that doesn't does not bring the evidence of the existence of Allahh you know why is it that sometimes people they don't make sense really so this is how Allah subhana wa ta'ala make the matter very So those who deny the existence of Allah, they are the worst people when it comes to contradicting themselves in in so much contradictions that they cannot have a normal life unless they again they intoxicate themselves to be heedless of what is being said. So for example as some of the they mentioned it's it's mentioned here in the book also that some of the atheists they had a time to debate with someone. Uh so that with that person of knowledge he was late coming intentionally. So when he came and they asked him why you're late he says I was prevented from coming because there was a river between myself and be able to come to the debate and the only way for me to find a way is that a ship came that has no captain to it whatsoever. uh it just by itself like this without any leading it and I just uh rode on this ship till I came to you. So of course they said what are you saying? You're saying things are nonsense. How can a ship does not have someone to guide it or to basically be the captain for it? So they he said to them, you're denying that this universe does not have a k while things are maintained the way it is and you would not believe that the ship that I had did not have a captain. So they acknowledge the matter. The matter is a very easy and a straightforward thing. Nobody would ever apply the same uh analogy to the life that they live in. Nobody would find something buried in the desert and that they would relate it to how the the the dust particles get together to make this beautiful vase or something that they discovered. You know, someone sees anything on the face of earth, he would relate it to someone did it. So this is from the human beings and the human perspective. So how about this earth? How about on oneself when we are creation of Allah subhana tala? And therefore the Quran made the matter very clear which is a profound verse that nobody can oppose. Have they created from nothing or are they the creators? Nothing does not create because it's nothing and they are not the creators. So they are left only with one and one answer only which is there is a creator of the heavens and earth. So this is how the establishing the evidences by necessity and with reason nobody can ever deny this. So this is by Allahh. He's the creator of the heavens and the earth. That's why when he heard this he said he said my heart was almost flying away because of how powerful it is. So when someone argued with a believer you believe in Allahhana he says yes no doubt he says did you see him? He said no. He said did you hear him? He said no. Did you smell him or touch him? He said no. He said so how can you believe in him? So he said to him you're a person of reason. He said yes. He said, "Did you see your your place of your place of reasoning?" He said, "No." He said, "Did you hear it?" He said, "No." He said, "Did you smell it or touch it?" He said, "No." He said, "How can you then claim that you're or a person of reason?" Not everything has to be seen for a person to believe in it. So also the reflection and to think about matters and to reflect upon it. When a person reflect upon the ayat of Allah, the signs of Allah, the creation of Allah, the heavens, the earth, the stars, the all of these, you know, creation of Allah subhana wa ta'ala and everything is in orbit. Nothing is is disturbed. Everything is by the power of Allahhana who's maintaining this universe in such a powerful way. And when it comes to the earth and the mountains and the rivers and the the the air that we breathe and the sun and the moon all of these things and Allahh mentioned in details some of these signs in the Quran and in the sunnah of the prophetat and the more the person reflect the more that he would be in state of being amazed of how the creation of Allahh that we cannot even comprehend how it is how the complexities of things and one thing lead to the other all by Allahhana wa tala You know and when people reflected upon this he was reported that he when he was asked about this and he says that when you have the cherry leaves you know it has the same taste you know and the with the same taste but when the worms eat it you know comes from it the silk and when the the bees they eat it comes from it honey and when the cettles they eat it you know comes as droppings you know and when the deers they eat it comes from it the musk so and this is one thing and the same thing with the different food and the different ways that Allah subhana wa ta'ala created for us and this by itself is one of the enjoyable things for a person to reflect in his life upon Allah subhana wa ta'ala upon the ayat of Allahhana tala and the signs of Allah subhana wa ta'ala and Allahh called us in the Quran to reflect upon our own selves saying And in your own selves there are great signs from Allah subhana wa ta'ala. And don't you see the miraculous creation of Allah subhana wa tala. So we ask Allahh to keep our hearts steadfast upon the dean of Allah and we'll continue inshalla next time.
