WHAT IS ISLAM?
Can we find an explanation of the great universe? Is there any convincing
interpretation of the secret of existence? We realize that no family can
function properly without a responsible head, that no city can prosperously
exist without sound administration, and that no state can survive without a
leader of some kind.
We also realize that nothing comes into being on its own.
Moreover, we observe that the universe exists and functions in the most
orderly manner, and that it has survived for hundreds of thousand of years.
Can we then say that all this is accidental and haphazard? Can we attribute
the existence of man and the whole world to mere chance.
Man represents only a very small portion of the great universe.
And if he can
make plans and appreciate the merits of planning, then his own existence and
the survival of the universe must also be a planned policy.
This means that
there is an extraordinary power to bring things into being and keep them
moving in order.
