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 spontaneously and without a Creator, just think deeply about the following awakening and enlightening questions; to which, until the 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 and tools 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 possess perfect order, then it should still possess it, and even better than the original. Rather, it should be 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 maker and producer of this universe which possesses this 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 have included 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 the world, which was made by itself, of which millions of types and samples exist? Has it been without 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 Perfection and Glory of the Exalted Creator, besides feeling thankful, are examples of these aforementioned free and regular gifts and favors. 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 associated with nature is an illusion created by unbelievers in order 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 the Messenger, peace and blessings of God be upon him. It establishes the shortest communication's path 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.
