There are so many stars, its comfort me... They keep blinking the lights that take million thousands years of light speed to reach the earth I’m standing at.
Tons of legends telling people about how moon and stars come from. From china princess fly away to Moon with rabbit, Japan’s “superdog” is eat away moon, and lots more beautiful legends. Eventhought nowadays science proven everything, that moon is just a planet who reflect the lights from sun, still lots of people believe in legends that’s come from their granda pa and grand ma. No logic needed, just believe what old folks said is the way of listening legends.
However, while I was staring at the stars, I wondering Who create this beautiful scene? It’s so amazing that’s not even human’s hand may reach. There must be a God who create this earth and universe. I did believe so even though I was growing up in Buddhist family, I was keep asked to pray at temple without ask too much things, because that’s too much while prayed to things that not even logic. No answer for scientific question in Buddhist religion, dead end.
How about Christian? The Trinity?
Well.. I was not even get close with christian. For some unknown reason I didn’t like their Cross. (For me Cross is a cruel weapon to kill someone slowly by bloody Jewish, I have no idea how could it be the most important sign in Christian)
I was thinking… yes, there must be God who creates this universe. He must be very Great till human mind can’t be imagine or trying to understand the Image of God, because it’s Him who create this universe. How would a human understand things that already exceed his limit of mind? Everything in this universe is being created.. How would creation try to understand God by another creation on this earth?
I also didn’t think God is one of the races among human. Because it’s Him who create human, so there must be God for all mankind.
But I was lost, I didn’t know where is the real God among so many kind of religions. Islam being describes by Media as terrorists, and lots more negative info. Till I was afraid to get near with Islam, and never understand even a bit about Islam.
However… I think you all know my answer. I found truth in Islam.
Only after I read books about Pillars of Islam (Rukun Islam), my interest to Islam getting higher till I am confirm that Allah swt is the Greatest God. Gosh… I have been live around Muslims and mosque for years, Azan is played for ages, but I only know the truth about Islam after I read islamic books and think about the creation of Universe through sciences.
Pillars of Islam is my first step to realise Islam throughly. All those misunderstanding about Islam swipe away from my heart. I met Hidayah, and I’m living with it till forever after.
And in the earth there are Signs (proving the Oneness of Allah and His Power) for those (who want to achieve knowledge making them) endowed with inner certainty. And also in yourselves; can you not see and consider (such proofs and evidences)?
(Surah Adz Dzaariyat 20-21)
Assalamu'alaikum,, akh..indeed it is true. By looking at the beauty and the artistic nature of creations, we may discern that there is a 'Prime Mover' behind all those creations. may Allah bless you and your family. ^_^

Assalamualaikum brother Ikhwan,
ReplyDeleteThe answers are already laid in front of us, yet we are often unaware of its existence. Like how Allah S.W.T is everywhere, but how many of us choose to "find" Him or be "found" by Him?
May Allah S.W.T shine His purest light upon you and your loved ones. :)

Thank you for your wish..
if God does not create then He is not called as a 'God'. pretty much like saying if an artist claims to be painter but never even painted a picture then how could he deserve the title?
ReplyDeletethat's right, life and universe did not emerge by chance. creation can only exist in the presence of a conscious mind. even science itself has refuted Darwinism and the evolutionary theory.
