God Willing

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

hear the voice of God. Their microscopes and binoculars showed them things that man had never seen before, but they did not shake hands with the angels of God scattered all over the universe. however, the same thing has happened to the Muslim thinkers and leaders of the present day in a different form. secular thinkers found only the outer structure instead of the inner reality. similarly, Muslim thinkers found only the outer form of islam; they did not discover the real spirit of the religion. if you listen to these thinkers’ speeches and read their biographies and books, you will find everything in them except the real spirit of islam. There will be mention of meetings with human beings, but there will be no mention of meeting with God and the glory of God. They will be enchanted by the loftiness and majesty of human art. Their writings will echo the worldly events, but there will be no mention of the events concerning the hereafter or the glory and majesty of God. They will reveal they are astonishing discoveries. however, nowhere will you find any sign of their hearts being moved by the discovery of God.
