Page 25 - Unawareness: A Sly Threat
P. 25
Harun Yahya 23
Satan can whisper to people until they become
immersed in despair, thinking that everything is lost and that
the situation is irremediable. But believers know that such
thoughts are no more than satanic deceptions, and so ignore
them. They immediately turn to Allah, repent, and take refuge
from unawareness in Him:
As for those who guard against evil, when they are both-
ered by suggestions from satan, they remember and
immediately see clearly. (Surat al-A‘raf: 201)
Taking refuge in Allah from the empty apprehensions that
can lead them into unawareness, they are careful to remem-
ber Him at all times, read and ponder the Qur’an, and pray
constantly. So, by His will, they are saved from even a
moment of unawareness.
A warning to unaware people
… so that you may warn a people whose ancestors were
not warned and who are therefore unaware. (Surah Ya
Sin: 6)
Throughout history, Allah chose prophets and messengers,
upon whom He bestowed light and understanding, to warn all
people who, for whatever reason, had rejected or had lost their
earlier awareness of true Islam. Allah chose our Prophet,
Muhammad (saas), to warn his own people, to bring the true reli-
gion to them, and to instill in them fear and respect due to Allah:
Warn them of the Day of Bitter Regret, when the affair
will be resolved. But they take no notice. They have no
faith. (Surah Maryam: 39)
