INTRINSIC REALITY

Whether members of parliament go to work on foot or by helicopter does not alter the fact that they are bound to fashion laws in accordance with the order that rules the entire cosmos. Whether they are housed in huts or in magnificent buildings, judicial bodies are still bound to mete out justice by the same absolute standards so that the innocent are defended and the guilty punished. Thus, religion comes out as an integral need for human beings. The religion of Islam as derived from its original sources presents the fulfillment of this need. The Quran, the preserved word of God, is guidance for man from the Creator of the universe. The Quran presents the creation plan of God. Accountability in the Hereafter is central to God’s scheme. This concept gives meaning to our temporary lives in this world. The promise of a perfect world in Paradise is in consonance with our desire for perfection and justice which cannot be fulfilled in this world. To be successful in the Hereafter we need to mould our lives so that it becomes acceptable to the Almighty, our Creator and Sustainer. o WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR FEEDBACK Dear Readers, Spirit of Islam team believes in the involvement of readers to enhance the quality of the magazine.
