The essential guide to Society

The Quran leads us to true guidance. It says, “Allah is He besides Whom there is no god, the Ever-living, the Self-subsisting by Whom all subsist; slumber does not overtake Him nor sleep; whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His; who is he that can intercede with Him but by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend anything out of His knowledge except what He wills.

Common Sense in Islam

There is a very significant verse in the Qur’an which states : “Therefore set your face in devotion to the true faith, the up-right nature with which God has endowed man. God’s creation cannot be changed. This is surely the true religion, although most men do not know it.” (30:30) According to this verse, Islam is based on nature. Islam and nature, both are counterparts to each other. What is in nature in an unwritten form is in Islamic scriptures in written form.
