THE GREAT MISTAKE OF THOSE WHO DO NOT

HEED THE QUR'AN

ture you have never experienced throughout your life. The moment
when you understand this wonderful situation is the moment when
you begin your real life because understanding that matter may
never be experienced in its essence and that you can only view im-
ages of what exists outside is the most important scientific truth
which a person can learn in the life of this world.
All these truths demonstrate a person's helpless situation in the
face of Allah, because the life of the world in which Satan deceives
people with promises and empty illusions is nothing other than a
world of the imagination which can only be perceived through the
senses. All these truths constitute an excellent reason for surrender-
ing ourselves to Allah, Who created everything, believing in Him
with a certain knowledge and fearing him with a heartfelt fear.
The Qur'an is a message to all humanity and it explains all things
to mankind. It is hoped that people who listen to the voice of their
consciences will heed this call and abandon their escape from real-
ity. In a verse of the Qur'an, Allah offers this invitation:
Certainly there is a transmission in this [Qur'an] for people
who worship. (Surat al-Anbiya': 106)
