RAMADAN 24: DOES GOD EXIST?(Picture: A painting of Öeschinen Lake, Switzerland I did this morning)Whilst scrolling down my instagram after painting this, I came across a picture with a caption that really intrigued me. It went like this;If nothing is certain, Asma asked, then “how can you prove that God actually exists?”“You can’t, not one hundred percent, offer a proof of God,” said Akram. “Just as you cant offer one hundred percent proof that He doesn’t exist.”For Akram, the signs were all there. That we were here talking about it at all was proof. So were sunsets and skin cells, gnats and Niagra Falls. “Allah has created enough signs for all the arguments,” he said. Believers are meant to be readers of these signs: the Angel Gabriel’s first word to Muhammad had been "Read".“If Allah had wanted to make all people Muslim, he could have,” He explained “But instead, he sent guidance. He wants people to think.”“Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason.” [Quran, 2:164] -- source link
