A Response to Those Who Say That the World Came into Existence by the Action of Nature
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Bakr Muhammad says: There are those who say that the world came into existence by the action of nature, meaning that the entities of things—whether plants, animals, or inanimate objects—and their characteristics created themselves and their movements. How should one respond to this?
Answer:
This is disbelief in Allah (Mighty and Majestic), atheism, and a distortion of the fitrah (the innate natural disposition) with which Allah created people. Nature is a creation; a creation does not change anything or bring anything into existence except by the command of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
The presenter:
