God’s Existence
English book, p. 73
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
UNIVERSAL EVIDENCE OF GOD AND THE HEREAFTER to claim that a God who was a mere ‘spirit’ or ‘idea’ and had no separate identity brought innumerable forms into existence, all being His own. A modern scientific study of the universe strongly suggests the presence of a Superior Mind in the creation and administration of the universe, a Creator who is separate from the creation. This simultaneously negates the monistic concept of God as it testifies to the monotheistic understanding of God. The monotheistic concept of God is rational. It is based on dualism, that the creation, including man and God, have a separate existence. Both have separate identities. God is the Creator, and all His creations, including man, are the created. This is the theological concept termed dualism, which states that God and His creation are separate entities. According to the monotheistic concept of God, two distinct entities emerge: the Creator and the creation. God is the Creator, and all the things in the universe are His creation, including human beings. There is no third position. On the one hand, there is God, and on the other hand, there is God’s creation. Thus, we have the Unity of God—monotheism. Monotheism is the belief that all power lies in the hand of one God alone. It is God alone who is the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. It is God alone who is behind the functioning of the entire universe.
