Page 13 - Character Types of the Unbelievers

Harun Yahya-Adnan Oktar
pects Allah to be pleased. This pervasive type of ignorance adversely af-
fects them in every aspect of their lives.
The only sure way to escape this ignorance is for them to turn to the
Qur’an, the remedy to their lack of knowledge, and edifier of the hidden

realities of this life and the next, and our Prophet’s (saas) Sunnah.
Otherwise, there is no other source of truth. But, because they fail to
refer to it, they have concocted numerous false ideologies and belief
systems. All have different conception of the purpose of life; different
ideals and different concepts of what is moral. Each is so in conflict with
the other that it is often impossible for them to exist together in har-
mony. Each defends his own particular belief while criticizing the oth-

ers. Because they suspect one another, and are often at odds with one
another, they are fraught with many difficulties.
As stated earlier, the only solution is for them to conform to the
kind of life prescribed by the true religion. And Allah, Who created
human beings, has again revealed for them in the Qur’an the ideal life,
which will allow them to derive the greatest amount of benefit from all
things.
The purpose of this book is to explore several examples of the kind
of life and the type of character that the nations of ignorance have pro-

duced, and to show that every approach it has formulated has come to
an impasse. Moreover, it will attempt to show that the typical character
produced by the nations of ignorance can never attain the contentment
and peace of mind they seek.
In addition, this book will demonstrate that the character of a be-
liever, as described in the Qur’an, is superior to any other of the thou-
sands of character types that emerge among ignorant nations, and show

how excellent the life lived by a believer compared to the life of igno-
rance.
