What's the best way to deal with Kaffir? All right, so who want proof about God or Quran? The only thing I was thinking is we have scientific and historical proof that too before science existed and God has to exist cuz he is the ever living. If something created the universe then what created that?
God isn't created or he wouldn't be God. God is the Hayy al-Qayyum. This guy really seems sure about himself, doesn't he? Why does it Why do I feel like he's trying to convince himself first and then then tell me? This is the I would like a more detailed response from Mufti's perspective.
All right, well, look, I would say just don't worry about trying to prove things. You see, when we say can we prove that God exists? We can't prove God exists, but we feel it. To me as an individual, I you know, to me this I've said this before on so many occasions that look, the world just just trying to make meaning of things.
The ability to try to make meaning of something to me cannot be meaningless. That's to me. Now, one could argue that I may be wrong. I may be wrong, but to me it doesn't make any sense that this is just nothing, that this equates to nothing, that there is something greater than me that has created us all, set us all in motion.
Right, so but it's coming back to the proving. You can't prove either way. You can't prove that there is no God and you can't prove that there is a God. But I mean, you can present some rational explanations. Uh but, it's not the same as It depends. Unless that's what you mean by proof, then that's fine, you know. But, it's not real like concrete proof, because then it wouldn't be faith.
