God and His Creation Plan

English book, p. 52

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

believe in God will not be able to remain silent. His sense of wellwishing and desire that others also enter Paradise will undoubtedly cause him to make God’s message known to people. What is the best act to thank God? According to the Quran, Those who believe love God most. (Quran 2:165) What is love? Love is a result of discovery. When you discover that God has already given me great reward in this world in the form of His numerous bounties, you become immersed in a sea of gratitude for Him, which in turn produces love for God. How should the creation plan of God be conveyed without giving an impression that it is some sort of propaganda? You should not aim to do everything in one sitting. This work is a process. You should discuss with the audience only as per their ability to accept. For the remainder, you should share books. During discussion, often a person’s ego comes to the fore, while when he is reading a book, he is able to absorb a lot more. So, there are two aspects to presenting the creation plan of God to a person: one aspect is through discussion and the other aspect is conveyed through giving of books. How do we discover God’s powerfulness? The secret of this discovery lies in comparison. We should compare God’s power of bringing about rain with our powerlessness and inability to bring about rain, grow grain and make the sun shine. And if a person cannot do it, he should think how all this is happening
