One implication of the facts described so far is that actually, man's knowledge of the external world
is exceedingly limited.
That knowledge is limited to our five senses, and there is no proof that the world we perceive by
means of those senses is identical to the "real" world.
It may, therefore, be very different from what we perceive. There may be a great many dimensions
and other beings of which we remain unaware. Even if we reach the furthermost extremities of the uni-
verse, our knowledge will always remain limited.
Almighty God, the Creator of all, has complete and flawless knowledge of all beings who, having
been created by God, can possess only the knowledge that He allows them. This fact is related in the
Qur'an thus:
God, there is no god but Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining. He is not subject to drowsiness or
sleep. Everything in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. Who can intercede with Him except
by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them but they cannot grasp
any of His knowledge save what He wills. His Footstool encompasses the heavens and the Earth and
their preservation does not tire Him. He is the Most High, the Magnificent. (Qur'an, 2: 255)

In order to perceive, no external world is necessary. Given the right kind of stimulation to the brain,
sensations of touch, sight, and sounds, can be recreated in the brain. The best example of this process is
dreams.
During dreams, your body typically remains still
and motionless in a dark and quiet bedroom, and
your eyes remain shut. Neither light nor sound nor
any other stimuli from the exterior world is reaching
your brain for it to perceive. Yet in your dreams, you
still perceive experiences very similar to real life. In
your dreams you also get up and go to work, or go
on vacation and enjoy the warmth of the sun.
Furthermore, in dreams you never feel doubts
about the reality of what you experience. Only after
you wake up you realize your experiences were on-
ly dreams. You not only experience such feelings as
fear, anxiety, joy and sadness but also see different
images, hear sounds and feel matter. Yet there is no
physical source producing these sensations and per-
ceptions; you lie motionless inside a dark and quiet
room.
