Belief in Allah

Answer the following questions:

1. How do the marvels of the earth, marvel of our

own body, and the objects of the space point to
the existence of Allah?
The more a man thinks about different objects of nature,
the more mysterious they appear to him. From the tiniest
object on earth to the huge constellations of stars visible
to us, our sight is dazzled when we consider them. The
different types of rocks, plants, animals etc. make us
wonder, how everything was created. Moreover, our own
body is far more complex than a complicated computer.
All this cannot be a result of mere chance. It points to the
existence of the One-Allah.
2. How does the fact of the awareness of the right
and wrong prove the existence of Allah?
Each one of us has the ability to think what is right and
what is wrong. When we do something wrong, our
conscience pricks us. Where from this feeling comes? It
comes from Allah! This ability of thinking and
understanding is given to us by Allah.
3. Why cant we say that the universe is a result
of mere chance?
We can not say that the universe is a result of mere
chance because everything has a maker. For example, a
computer was made by some one; a car was made by
some one, same way this universe with all its sight and
wonders and treasures was created by the All-Wise, All-
Knowing, and the Most Powerful, Allah.
4. What is Revelation? The clearest and surest
evidence relating to Allahs existence is given by
Allah. Discuss.
The word Revelation is related to the verb reveal which
means to unveil or make known. Quran tells us about
Allah, ourselves, the past and the future. We could have
not known all this through our inner awareness or
thinking power. The Quran is sent by Allah, therefore, it
is the clearest evidence relating to Allahs existence as He
Knows Himself better than we know Him.
5. Mention a few attributes of Allah.
The All-Knowing (Al Aleem), The Most Merciful (Ar
Rahman), The Oft-Forgiving (Al Ghafoor), The Most
Powerful (Al Azeez), The All-Seeing (Al Baseer), The
Most Compassionate (Ar Raheem), The All-Hearing (As
Samee), The All-Wise (Al Hakeem).
