IntroductionIntroduction

The pathways to the enlightenment about God are not limited. According to some wise men there are as many pathways as there are people.

At-turuqo elallahe bi Adade Anfos al khalaiq

There are five basic ways and one natural one to attain the awareness of God

The five different proofs and pathways are:

1. The proof of Arrangement

2. The proof of movement

3. The proof of the necessary and the contingent, wealth and poverty.

4. The proof of the Cause and the Effect

5. The proof of Truths

The sixth path is the proof of nature and the study of the search of God deep in the inner self. The interesting point is that Qura’n has taken the help of all proofs but the greatest proof that it has presented to the disbelievers is the proof of governance. This is the proof of the immortal fountainhead of all that exists and His knowledge and power used to creating the exceptions in this universe. It is because of the vastness of this proof of governance that the second volume of Nafahatol Qura’n has been reserved for explaining its different sides.

We will now present different verses of the Qura’n in proof of nature or God and then discuss nature according to the guiding light of the Qura’n.

This will be the content of this chapter.

We would once again like to reiterate that these issues will neither be presented in the philosophical style nor in the normal debating manner. Keeping the title of this book in mind everything will be discussed on issue basis. At all stages of our discussion will be under the guidance of the Qura’n and we will make the best use of this guiding light. If we mention other issues then it will be done as collateral under a separate heading. The truth is that the purpose of publication is nothing else but this and if we do not comply with this style then we will leave the sphere of Tafsir or Qura’nic explanation.

(1) Some learned people have redesigned the words as. At-turuqo Ilallahi bi Adade anfus al khalaiq” There is a path to the knowledge of God in each human breath but this sentence has not been found in the reliable annals of Hadiths. This is just a saying of some wise men.
