SUPERMAN IN ISLAM (Part 2)

One day a man named Abu Shakir asked Imam Jaffer AlSadiq about the existence of Allah. He said that he did not believe in any thing if it could not be comprehended by five senses. The Imam asked him if he could see inside his body to which he replied in negative. The Imam told him that there was blood circulating in your body which completes one circulation in a few minutes. And further,  if the circulation stops for a few minutes then death would occur. The Imam told him that there were creatures in the body in millions which you cannot comprehend by five senses but Allah had created them for human beings safety. Imam Ali had said “who ever knows himself shall know his Creator”. Imam further said that there was movement in the stone which was beyond five senses comprehension. Imam’s statement was confirmed by the US magazine “The Knowledge” in its issue of June 1973. In response to Abu Shakir’s assertion that every thing in the world was created automatically, the Imam told him that grass did not grow by itself. Grass grows by the seed fallen in the soil, rain water soaks it, the solar energy and air was essential for it growth. The air was necessary for human and plant life but not comprehended by five senses.

The Imam said that a Creator is essential for every thing whether humans, plants, animals or rocks. Even scholars who did not believe in God as such but still concluded that there must be some super power which initiated the creation of this universe. If an intelligent person ponders about his own body and its disciplined systems will realize about the Creator of his body and the entire world. The Imam further said that every thing in this world was moving. There was movement in side our bodies and the earth is also moving. The Imam said that stone was in a liquid form but slowly the heat was lost and over a long period of time it became solid. To one of his questions about Allah’s existence every where, the Imam replied that air was every where but we cannot see it. Similarly, Allah is every where but cannot be seen. Not only human beings pray to Allah but the animals and birds also pray but we do not understand their language. In spring time, the birds migrate at exactly the same time every year and make nestles at the same place year after year. This discipline shows its faith in the Creator.  Plants also have faith and pray in their own way as is evident from their organized way of life. He further said that there were 150 types of plants which have further sub branches. Incidentally, the modern botany also divides plants in 150 types. Plants follow the Creator’s rules and regulations faithfully and punctually. Even the stones pray in its own way and if it did not, then its life would be disrupted and it will explode. The sun’s light is also worshipping Allah. As it strictly follows the divine commandments and hence the two opposite components which do not produce light by themselves are able to produce light when they meet according to Allah’s directions.
