The
Objective Reasoning and The Convincing Islam
Muhammad, the prophet of Islam followed the footsteps of earlier
prophets like Abraham, Moses, Jacob and Jesus. He was a descendant of Abraham,
and the core principles of Islam are those taught by all prophets from Noah to
Jesus. All prophets before Muhammad focused on a particular nation or residence,
however, because Muhammad’s message was the final call from God, he was sent to
the all mankind. Human beings are all created and meant for one and only one
reason, to worship God. The collective mental and spiritual ability of all
humans cannot construct a single conclusive approach to understand and praise
God, as each one of our senses has its limitations and boundaries, their
combined efforts will also have impassable circumference. There we need above
human guidance and its here that we get prophets who themselves receive
revelations from God.

against the Arabs who brought it in the first place! Indeed the great scholars
of Islam were mainly from non-Arab Muslims who used to travel from India,
central Asia and Spain to Mecca and Medina to teach the Arabs about Islam!
A message brought by an illiterate prophet, Muhammad, got the biggest share of
audience in the market of theologies and beliefs and now convinces 1.3 billion
people around the world.
The prevailing atheist believe of our time which avoids to mention the word
“God” in any stage of our life is the result of bewilderment in an array of
manly philosophies that tried to find an answer to the reason of our existence
through presumption and analogy. The conflict between the religious men and the
scientists in Europe few centuries ago made the scientists seek guidance in the
theological ideas of philosophers, when the contradicting philosophical ideas
seemed inconceivable, they turned back to their laboratories, looked in the
scientific experiments, through microscopes, telescopes and hypothesis and when
they could not see, smell, hear or touch any god, heaven or hell, their answer
was clear… there was no god. This atheist attitude justified some scientists to
formulate answers for any question arising from the nature or space and it is
always taken as new “Scientific theory” as long as it doesn’t mention God. But
where are the limitations of our senses? Do we have to have an answer for every
question? Do we have to understand every event or object in the space?
There was a time when witchcrafts had the answers for everything in the life and
space through astrology and palm reading, now scientists have every answer
through their theories and microscopes.
When our comprehension comes to its boundary, we can only get further by
following the prophets. Contrary to the scientists and astrologists who mainly
convince particular groups of society, the richness and simplicity of prophetic
knowledge appeals to people from all walks of life, That is why prophets have
diverse followers in terms of intellect, age, colour, skill, literacy, etc.
