About
The destiny of Humanity begins with the description of Paradise and Allah informs the reader that these pleasures are eternal. Thereafter, Allah uses a parable of a mosquito to engage the reader to think about life and its purpose. Such that a believer can acknowledge and recognise their creator by simply looking at a mosquito but on the other hand a disbeliever ridicules and mocks Allah’s creation rejecting Allah. This series of videos will further examine the journey of life. The very fact that we all at one moment in time were non existent, then Allah gave us life, then Allah will take back our lives and then finally Allah will resurrect us and the final stage of this journey will commence either eternal bliss or eternal torment.
These set of verses provide us with an amazing legal maxim, ‘Everything in worldly matters is permissible, unless evidence suggestions otherwise’.
We examine this maxim and provide lots of examples in order for the student to grasp and be able to apply it in all matters
