If Allah exists, as our Iman says he does, and if Islam is the System of Belief and Behavior that Allah designed to guide all human beings through their Exile Journey on earth, how can Islam, and everything about it not make perfect sense?
How can this Map not be Readable?
And how can this Manual not be in a language that everyone can Understand: Simple, clear, without prevarications and inconsistencies?
Of course, human radars are built with different capacities and ranges. Also, our ability to see and understand things in this world, and about Islam, and about the role and relevance and applicability of Islam to our worldly situations, will depend on where we are in our journey to God.
For, the Journey of our Earthly Life is really a Journey to God. Make no mistake about that.
It is a round trip: From and To God.
As simple as that!
Recall what Muslims say when a fellow Muslim dies:
Innaa Lillahi wa Innaa Ilaihi Raaji'oon.
Paraphrase:
"The Origin of our Life's Journey is God.
And the Destination of our Life's Journey also is God.
We came from God. And we shall return to God."
Ya Allah! What a Model for Human Life and Death on this Earth!
What a Story and what a Scenario!
And what a perfect cure for Human Ailments of Heart and Mind!
And for all diseases of the Soul and Spirit!
Goodbye Despair!
Welcome Eternal Hope!
So long Strife and Conflict!
Hello Human Amity and Brotherhood and Fellowship!
Be Gone Force and Coercion and Deceit!
Let Reasoned Debate and Honest Discussion and Simple Camaraderie rule and guide all Human Relations!
Whatever else may or may not be true, no one can deny that this Islam is in a class and category all by itself.
And I mean this in a purely empirical, testable, verifiable, intersubjective sense. Meaning you can see it with your own eyes, right here in this world.
And so can everyone else whose mental and spiritual arteries are not completely clogged.
Anyone can go, investigate and find out for themselves whether what I am saying is true or not.
Now, are you surprised why Allah wants Muslims to make it their topmost priority to Take the Qur'an -- and Islam -- to Every Heart and Mind that Needs It -- and Which One Does Not?
Way above their concern for their families, lives, relationships, businesses and every other worldly concern and preoccupation?
Don't you see that Allah does not want any of the children of Adam, Alaihis Salam, to be without this Roadmap back to Allah?
Once you deliver the message to people, it is entirely up to each individual to do with it what they wish. Accept it and return to their Original and Eternal Abode, Paradise.
Or reject it and end up in the Eternal Misery of Hell.
END
