Definition of the Values in the Quran
Masalahs must be compared to the Values
Were some hadith applicatable to the context or not ?
Was dragging the garment related to pride in those times or not ?
Values apply to the literal context at the time of the sahabah and now.
If you don’t have the correct values, you will never live a happy life.
Supreme Intelligence
- Allah, by definition, is beyond observation – The existence of God can only be proven through His revelation and honest science. Many scientists have declared it impossible for life to come about by human effort or even spontaneously.
- Only intelligence can create new genetic information – The digital code and information in DNA is used by the cell in order to construct cell and manage the cell. If you randomly add data to the code, you will most likely damage the code, rather than create something better. New functions requires new code. New biological forms also requires new code. New code requires new information. When we trace any information to it’s source, we always come to a mind, rather than a material process. “No currently existing formal language can tolerate random changes in the symbol sequences without being destroyed.” Murray Eden – MIT.
- Only intelligence can build complex beings – Scientists are trying to explain something very complex in terms of bottom up undirected processes. The evidence suggests a top down, rather than a bottom up approach. This bottom up approach is holding science back. Looking at life as an intelligent system yields insights as to how life works. Life has a level of complexity that could never assemble itself and thereafter reproduce itself. Complexity necessitates a designer.
- “…Verily those on whom you call besides Allah, cannot create a fly, even though they combine together for the purpose…” Quran 22:73
