Faith and Intellect
Hello my dear friends,
If you have followed our talks so far, you realize that my life is based on rationalism and reason.
In accordance with the verse 'whoever is given wisdom, he is given a great blessing', I, therefore, analyse and question the reason, purpose and process of everything.
I agree completely with the way Hazrat Rasulullah explained everything.
It is not easy for a person to evaluate the knowledge coming from the source of Risalat (the quality of Rasul) at first instance.
That's why, in order to be able to evaluate everything, I question every bit of information I receive from him.
I go into, question and analyse every word in the Quran.
Why the word Rabb used in this verse instead of the word Haqq.
Why is the word Allah used here instead of Rahman.
I consider every verse in this way as a result of being rational.
That is, whether it is my point of view about the life of the world or afterworld, I consider this rationally.
But, there is such a subject where being rational doesn't work there. Itís the subject in which the mind stops.
Which subject is this? The matter of belief.
02:05 While the Rasul of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa (peace be upon him) told us the system and order, declared as Islam, he did this in accordance with the basics of Islam. Why faith?
03:56 The word 'reason'(rational faculty) comes from the word 'ukl' in Arabic. It means That is, to make a deduction through making a connection between things.
05:18 Although people accepted Muslimism, although they told Rasulullah (peace be upon him) 'we accept you as the Rasul and Nabi of Allah' although they performed prayer and fasted, this verse that was revealed to Hazrat Rasullullah is very important. We must think about it carefully.
07:59 Believe in who? Believe in Rasulallah and Allah proclaimed by Rasulallah. But did they really understand Allah that was proclaimed by Rasulallah? The verse shows they didn't.
10:14 Allah exists in your own souls, being, mind, and consciousness. Can't you realize this within your insight?
11:58 It writes 'If my servants ask you about me, I am close to their being'. It is such a certainty that it exists in your being, but you are not aware of it and look for it outside of you.
14:02 If you believe that the meanings of Allah's names compose your being, essence and you, you can manage anything with the belief you have and the Names that compose your being and that Allah bestowed on you.
17:06 Learn about the Essence in your being. Know, understand and perceive Allah in your essence. This is the way of salvation, success. Trust and belief in Allah will open all the doors to you.
19:44 Please try to understand and feel what the Rasul of Allah Muhammad Mustafa (peace be upon him), the most magnificent mind that has ever lived and revealed the most magnificent knowledge brought.
