Does God Exist ?

Let us start with a Story .

In a mother’s womb were two babies.

One baby asked the other:“Do you believe in life after delivery?”
The other replied,“Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”

“Nonsense”said the first.
“There is no life after delivery.
What kind of life would that be?”

The second said,“I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”

The first replied, “That is absurd.
Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”
The second insisted,“Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”

The first replied,“Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after – delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”

“Well, I don’t know,”said the second,“but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”
The first replied“Mother?
You actually believe in Mother?
That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”

The second said,“She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.”

Said the first:“Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”
To which the second replied,“Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”

This story is a very simple yet a deep explanation of our life . Deep in our heart we all acknowledge God. We all know that a Creation cannot exist without a creator . We see things perish and we see People dying but when it comes to our own self we put a veil in our eyes and in our ears . Neither d we want to see nor do we want to listen .

Allah has mentioned this in Quran. He knows it because he is the one who created us .Allah says in Quran (surah Baqarah)-

2.6. Verily, those who disbelieve, it is the same to them whether you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe.

2.7. Allah has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearings, (i.e. they are closed from accepting Allah’s Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment.

2.118. And those who have no knowledge say: “Why does not Allah speak to us (face to face) or why does not a sign come to us?” So said the people before them words of similar import. Their hearts are alike, We have indeed made plain the signs for people who believe with certainty.

2.119. Verily, We have sent you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) with the truth (Islam), a bringer of glad tidings (for those who believe in what you brought, that they will enter Paradise) and a warner (for those who disbelieve in what you brought, they will enter the Hell-fire). And you will not be asked about the dwellers of the blazing Fire.

When We were young we were taught in school that Religion and Science are two different things. But Do you know Many great Scientists have accepted Islam . (Read What scientists say about God?) There are even Some who challenged themmself to prove Quran wrong and ended up accepting Islam. Read about one Such Man

“God is Truth. There is no incompatibility between science and religion. Both are seeking the same truth. Science shows that God exists.”“The observations and experiments of science are so wonderful that the truth that they establish can surely be accepted as another manifestation of God. God shows himself by allowing man to establish truth.”–Sir Derek Barton, winner of the 1969 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, as quoted inCosmos, Bios, Theos: Scientists Reflect on Science, God, and the Origins of the Universe, Life, and Homo sapiens
