Evidence of God and the Hereafter

English book, p. 87

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

UNIVERSAL EVIDENCE OF GOD AND THE HEREAFTER for its completion, it requires another world. It is this other world that the Prophets of God have referred to as the world of the Hereafter. The well-known American Christian missionary Billy Graham (d. 2018) once received an urgent message from an American billionaire who requested him to meet him urgently. When he met him, the man said to him: “You see, I am an old man. Life has lost all meaning. I am going to take a fateful leap into the unknown. Young man, can you give me a ray of hope?” (The Secret of Happiness, by Billy Graham, p.2) This question is not just of one American billionaire alone. Instead, every person who takes birth is faced with this question. The rational answer to this question can be found only in the belief in the world after death or the Hereafter. This question will remain unanswered if one does not accept the world Hereafter. All religions have a concept of the Hereafter, a life that follows the body’s death. However, the world of the Hereafter is not an issue of religious belief alone. It is also an utterly intellectual phenomenon. Therefore, the existence of the world Hereafter can be proven based on the same academic criteria used to verify all other things in science. Scientific Evidence for the Hereafter In this regard, one should first know what scientific proof is. According to contemporary science, scientific proof is not in which one arrives at absolute certainty in a particular matter. This sort of certainty is not possible about anything.
