Someone who grasps the true nature of matter will better

understand the secret of paradise

ADNAN OKTAR: ... The system changes entirely (in paradise). Allah totally alters the laws of

physics and chemistry; there is a verse about it saying that Allah will recreate all new. This is not the
system we are familiar with. In the same way we dream we are eating and we can eat as much as we li-

ke and never become full, that is how it is there. This is a secret of Allah’s. I talk about this from time to
time, one aspect of it. I talk about the nature of matter. Matter does exist on the outside, but it exists as

an image. Matter on the outside is transparent, like glass. Matter exists as concentrated energy on the
outside. It consists of concentrated energy and is transparent and black and white. There is no color

on the outside. We see things as colored in our brains. In paradise, when we imagine a thing it will
appear before us. For example, when you imagine an orange you can see it in your mind. You can bring

it to life in your brain. We imagine a city, and we can see it in our mind’s eye. We can produce it in our
minds, with roads and buildings, somewhere we have never even seen, in a moment, can’t we? You say

you are going to imagine a street in Paris, and you can see it right away. In full detail, right down to the
windows and shutters. You imagine a nice piece of fruit or a laid table, and the thought has your mouth

watering right away. That is how it is in paradise. Allah creates this deliberately in this world, so we can
grasp the system. You see a bird in paradise and imagine it roasted in front of you. And it appears stra-

ight away. That system already exists in this world, but in a very blurred form. In paradise the system is
crystal clear. Then when you imagine that bird fully formed again, the pieces come back together again

and it flies off. Matter and everything is mobile there. That is actually their normal state, how they sho-
uld be. It is their form in this world that is the exception.

The way that dust and dirt form in this world is a miracle. Normally, there should be no such thing.
It happens as a miracle. Matter never grows old or dirty or dies or falls ill. Becoming ill is a miracle. A

person may dream of catching a disease and becomes ill. Is that logical? He falls ill despite having no vi-
rus or whatever. Or he dreams of being hit by a car, his head is injured and he is admitted to hospital.

Allah will create a similar system in paradise. Of course, the original of matter always exists on the out-
side. But it exists as a shadow entity, as intense energy. We can never, ever see the original of it, but Al-

lah sees it. We only see as much as Allah allows us to see. Dawkins says, "I entered the laboratory and
did research.” He can never enter any laboratory apart from the one Allah shows him in his head. Allah

also creates the laboratory on the outside, from concentrated energy. But he can never see that original
laboratory, only the image of it shown him by Allah. Allah says, “I created it” on the outside. The entity

does exist on the outside.
