| Answer: There is no doubt about the fact that the
perception of Creator is found in the intuition of every person. The Qur’ān says
that before mankind was created, the Almighty took a covenant from the spirits
of all individuals about Him being their Creator. At that time, all of them
acknowledged this fact which was subsequently made a part of their intuition by
the Almighty. A person who still denies this fact is bound to be doomed in the
Hereafter. The Qur’ān says:
When your Lord drew forth from the children of Adam from
their loins their descendants and made them testify upon themselves [saying]: Am
I not your Lord. They said: Yes indeed we do testify. [This was done] lest you
should say on the Day of Judgement: Of this we were unaware of or [you put
forward the excuse] that our forefathers were idolaters and we were their
descendents after them. Will you then destroy us in retribution of the misdeeds
of the evil doers. (7:172-73) |
