God and the Universe

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

UNIVERSAL EVIDENCE OF GOD AND THE HEREAFTER been proven that a particular order pervades the entire cosmos, clearly indicating the existence of an Intelligent Designer or the One God. All scientific discoveries verify the religion of monotheism, whether directly or indirectly. POWER AND POWERLESSNESS Albert Einstein expressed a fundamental principle of the physical world in the following statement: “Energy cannot be created or destroyed.” This phenomenon is evidence of the Creator’s absolute power. Man can only use the present world. He does not have the power to change its fundamental nature, cancel its laws, or destroy it. From this, we also learn about man’s status in the present world. Man in this world does not enjoy the position of a master but, rather, the position of a subordinate. This situation is called a ‘test’ in the language of religion. Man comes into this world only so that, staying here for a limited period, he can complete ‘writing’ his ‘test paper,’ as it were. After this, he will go away to the world of the Hereafter, where his eternal future will be decided based on his performance in the test he has undergone while he was on Earth. He has no absolute power more than this. Some people, despairing of the conditions of the world, decide to commit suicide. They think that in this way, they can eliminate themselves. However, this is just not possible.
