HARUN YAHYA (ADNAN OKTAR)
cribe partners to Allah and deny rising from the dead, the Judgment
Day, paradise, hell and to all the details and rationales pertaining to
faith in the hereafter.
Although the hereafter is a fact which cannot be perceived
through the five senses, Allah created it along with countless pieces
of evidence so that our minds might easily have a grasp of it. As a
matter of fact, as a requisite for passing the test of this world, one
should perceive this fact, not through the five senses, but with wis-
dom and as a matter of conscience. Any average person, after some
contemplation, easily recognizes that everything in his environment,
including himself, could not have come into existence as a result of
pure coincidence but rather by the exercise of the superior might,
knowledge, will and control of our Creator. Then, he consequently
comprehends that the creation of the hereafter is easy for Allah and
that it is the result of Allah's wisdom and justice.
Although this is so apparent, one who is rebellious against the
commandments of Allah, would dislike the idea of rising from the
dead. As one who spends his life on satisfying his vain desires, he
would not be willing to stand before Allah to give an account of the
deeds he engaged in throughout his life. That is why, despite having
a thorough grasp of the existence of Allah, he would choose to sup-
press the voice of his conscience and deceive himself. Being confined
in heedlessness, an unbeliever starts to make unwise, inconsistent
and irrational comparisons without any long-term considerations,
just to deny the resurrection and the hereafter. In the Qur'an one of
such comparisons made by the unbelievers is revealed thus:
He makes likenesses of Us and forgets his own creation, say-
ing, 'Who will give life to bones when they are decayed?'
(Surah Ya sin: 78)
