Chapter 2
What the Sober Carefree (the Heedless Ones) Say to the Carefree Sober
(the Believers)
In response to the theory that this order has come into being
spontaneouslyand without a Creator, just think deeply about the
following awakeningand enlightening questions; to which, untilthe
instant of resurrection, no one will ever be able to respond. You
clearly know, and it is as a whole an undeniable truth, that
everything we see in our surroundings is only a result of the two
artificing hands of Almighty God, and His vicegerent, man.
Namely, only human offspring can build the necessary equipment
andtools from what the Almighty Sacred Being has prepared for us in
the form of natural resources left in our control. These resources
were created for our use.
First: Why is this mastery not available to such animals as elephants,
camels, horses, etc., which are many times stronger than we are?
Contemplate that if these functions were linked to the power of the
brain, then the brains of most animals would quantitatively supersede
that of humans.
Second: According to materialists, the creative power of matter can
create all varieties of animals, trees, rocks, plants and finally the
entire universe.
If this claim were true, could nature at least recreate the
generations of animals that humans or wild animals have destroyed
throughout the centuries? Scientists currently hold their skeletons,
posing likewise hundreds of other questions. No, never!
It is indisputable that if nature had the power to create things that
possessperfect order, then it should still possess it, andeven better
than the original. Rather, it shouldbe able to recreate. To shed light
on this truth, humans produce millions of something once the prototype
is there.
Nature should be able to recreate those annihilated figures were it,
as some say, the makerand producer of this universe which
possessesthis entire structured order. But no, it could never do so!
This creative power accredited to nature should bring forth creations
hundreds of times better and more efficient than the prototypes, based
on the principle of evolution that the materialists haveincluded in
their four principles. But this is impossible.
Third: Let's ask the second artificer, man, about the products
manufactured by his hands. Has anyone ever seen anything such as a
needle somewhere in theworld, which was made by itself, of which
millions of types and samples exist? Has it beenwithout mechanical
measurements or technical order? Has anyone ever found a needle to be
without a manufacturer? The answer is no.
Can what Man's hands manufacture ever be without a maker, even thought
he raw material used to manufacture it is abundant and accessible
everywhere? Of course not!
While his hands' manufacture can never be without a maker, though the
raw material used to manufacture it is abundant and accessible
everywhere, then which healthy wisdom and understanding could ever
accept that this ordered system with all its stupefying qualities and
specialties, which, since discovery, has perplexed and deeply
astonished some scientists by the Greatness and Glory of the Almighty
God could ever exist without Creator and Artificer?
We now come back to studying some of the favors and free gifts that
Glorious He has given and continues to give us regularly and freely.
Perceiving the Perfectionand Glory of the Exalted Creator, besides
feeling thankful, are examples ofthese aforementioned free and regular
gifts andfavors. We gain supply of this complete, energy-filled,
powerful spiritual nourishment to strengthen our faith and spirit.
Besides, we shall clearly know that the misconception associatedwith
nature is an illusion created by unbelievers inorder to beguile some
miserable persons intent on political gains. Otherwise, all that
exists is a product of the imperceptible Hand of power of Exalted Him.
A minute of such study is equivalent to a year of worship according to
theMessenger, peace and blessings of God be upon him. It establishes
the shortest communication'spath of the servant to God. This is the
strongest energy for charging the battery of faith and it is better
than all other forms of unconstrained worship.
