Page 83 - Knowing The Truth

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 81

AISHA: I always thought that way because that's what we were
taught. But now I realize how wrong I was.

MURAD: The Qur'an mentions this subject in several verses, and it
is an important secret to understanding some verses. For people like you
who comprehend that you are not in direct contact with the original of
matter, everything becomes clearly intelligible. Such people grasp in a
moment how close Allah is to them. They can see immediately mistaken
ideas and false opinions concerning Allah that many espouse. It may have
already occurred to you how close Allah is to human beings, but when
you consider what we have been saying, you realize that Allah is closer to
us throughout our lifetime than anything else.

IBRAHIM: I never thought of it that way.

MURAD: Ibrahim, Allah is closer to you than Aisha, Ahmed, I or even
than you yourself. In Surah Qaf verse 16, Allah says concerning human
beings, "We are nearer to him than his jugular vein." And in Surat al-Isra'
verse 60, this truth is revealed in these words, "Surely your Lord
encompasses mankind." But a person who believes that his body is
composed of matter can't grasp this important truth. For example, if the
brain is a place considered by one's 'self' a place accepted as outside would
be about 20-30 centimeters away. But when one grasps that there is no
contact to the original of the matter, and that one is only relating to
perceptions in the mind, concepts such as outside, inside and closeness
become meaningless. Allah has encompassed us and is eternally close to us.

IBRAHIM: ETERNAL CLOSENESS! I never thought about that
before. It's clearly plain to me now but I never thought about it until
today. This is really amazing.

MURAD: There are other verses relevant to this subject. I want to
read these verses to you. Please listen.
