Christians & atheists.Muslims are not required to prove the existence of one and only True God to anyone.?
"Proving" God exists is really not our purpose. We are only interested in
providing clear statements based on facts and logic and then allow the individual
decide for themselves who they would like to believe. There have always been people
who believed in the existance of God and there have always been those who have
denied in His existance. We must realize there are those who will never believe no
matter how much proof or evidence we produce
The reason is some people don't want
to believe in a Creator or Sustainer. They would not like to consider one day they will
have to answer for their actions and for their refusal to acknowledge their Benefactor
to whom they owe their very existance. We come to know it is not so much a matter of
us trying to convey our beliefs as it is for them to set aside preconceived perjudices
against proper belief. Meaning: this is really a matter of guidance from Above. If they
refuse even with evident proofs in front of them, this is not between us and them; it is
between them and their Creator. Again, it is not our job to "prove" anything to anyone.
We only need to present the facts in truth and allow the listener to make up their own
mind
We just begin with simple logic. When something is right in front of our eyes it
is difficult to deny it, right? Asking rhetorical questions can be very helpful in
presenting our case. Begin by asking the question; "Can you prove you exist?"
Yes, of course you can. You merely use your senses to determine what you can
see, hear, feel, smell, taste and you have emotions as well. All of this is a part
of your existence. But this is not how we perceive God in Islam. We can look to
the things He has created and the way He cares for things and sustains us, to
know there is no doubt of His existence.
One approach is to suggest simple yet convincing experiements anyone could
comprehend. For instance, say to someone, "Consider this the next time you
are looking up at the moon or the stars on a clear night; could you drop a
drinking glass on the sidewalk and expect it would hit the ground and on
impact it would not shatter, but it would divide up into little small drinking
glasses, with iced tea in them? Of course not."
Another example is have them consider what might happen if a tornado came
through a junkyard and tore through the old cars; would it leave behind a nice
new Mercedes with the engine running and no parts left around? Naturally not.
Or ask someone to consider what it would be like if someone told us about a
fast food restaurant operating itself without any people there? The food just
cooks itself, flys from the kitchen to the table and then when we are done, the
dishes jump back the kitchen to wash themselves. This is too crazy for anyone
to even think about.
After reflecting on all of the above, how could we look to the universe above us
through a telescope or observe the molecules in a microscope and then think
all of this came about as a result of a "big bang" or some "accident?"

About your feelings Exactly same is written in the passage.
"They would not like to consider one day they will
have to answer for their actions and for their refusal to acknowledge their Benefactor
to whom they owe their very existance."

Agree that I am desperate to propagate Truth.As those who are not following truth are really in danger of falling in eternal flush.

Why selective what about school shootings?millions bombed in middle east by Bush blair obama??
@jason
We breathe think rationally is the one of the proof.Do you really think all this is a result of an accident?

Use your God given brain instead of following blind faith of your local community.

"Evolution" Darwins theory is outdated theory 200 years ago proposed by Darwin who himself didnot believe it to be Truth.

My dear,
Nobody is required to do that.
What is true, remains true.
No need to prove that.
It is already proven.
If somebody is not ready to accept a simple thing like "2+2=4", you can't convince him.
"Existence of God" is some complicated formula, not so simple as given above, but still, truth is truth.

You don't understand evolution. It's not random at all. The comparison is so wrong. All i can tell you regarding the quote above is read about evolution. Maybe when you learn it the hard way it'll stick to your mind.
are you kidding me you are talking about dates? when your believes are over 1400 years old ?read about it about the mechanism
cheers and be well

No, because you cant't prove that god exist. So everything that you dont' understand like how gravity can form stars, you explain with that god did it? But you cant prove 1) That god did it 2) How god did it. I can tell you how a star is formed but you cant tell me HOW god makes a star.
You also have circle reasoning that nobody over 12 years old can accept. The things are ther because god made them. God is there because he made the things. Come on, do you really believe that or are you joking?

"We breathe think rationally is the one of the proof.Do you really think all this is a result of an accident?"
Saying that you don't know what came before the universe thus it has to be *specifically* your god is called argument from ignorance. You go from knowing nothing... to knowing everything about it.
No one knows whether or not this universe was created by a creator. No one. Not you. Not your extremely flawed religion. No one.

Oh come on everyone knows the truth that Islam is a mere 1,400 year old badly re written version of the 2,000 year old Christian religion!
Whilst imitation is said to be the sincerest form of flattery no imitation can ever be better than the original and we know that is false!

No one can prove god by saying look at the stars at night and observe gravity! If there was a magical god that made us, why do we have all these vital organs that allow us to breathe, move and think rationally (oh wait). Why wouldn't be all be hollow as we were made from miracles or magic?
Source(s): atheist - umwut?Lv 68 years ago
If you make a claim that a supernatural being exists, the burden is upon you to prove it.
When you say you have the "truth", please show it. Or is your "truth" just opinion and/or subjective truth, meaning it's only truth to you and those who believe it to be the truth?
You make the assumption that your god gave us brains, this existence and the universe. Again, do you have prove of this or is this just one of your beliefs? Or do I just have to take a leap of faith to get to these conclusions? (Faith == belief in something without proof)

Is there a question in this long rant? Whatever.
The Muslim god Allah is internally and externally incongruent, and thus cannot logically exist. The Quran describes Allah as the Compassionate, the Merciful, the Loving, and the Just. In order for Allah to be just, he has to punish those who transgress his laws. To be just means to punish people exactly as they deserve. To be merciful means to punish people less than they deserve. In order for Allah to be compassionate, merciful, and loving, he can't punish without these terms losing their meaning. Thus Allah can't exist with these four qualities.
A scientific theory is a unifying concept that explains a large body of data. It is a hypothesis that has withstood the test of time and the challenge of opposing views. The Big Bang Theory and the Theory of Evolution are supported by extensive data. There is no reliable data supporting the some-god-did-it hypothesis, and especially not the Allah-did-it hypothesis.
For thousands of years, people have said that their gods were behind what they didn't understand -- life, lightning, stars, earthquakes, the origin of life, the world or the universe, etc. Positing a god to supposedly answer a question solves nothing. It just adds an unwarranted level of complexity and stops you from asking more questions.
It used to be that science couldn't answer the question about the origin of the universe or of the Big Bang, but that didn't mean we should make up an answer (such as a god) and say that it was the cause. Within the last few decades scientists have discovered some good answers. Of course, a scientific explanation is more complex than simply saying, "Allah did it."
Quantum mechanics shows that "nothing," as a philosophical concept, does not exist. There is always a quantum field with random fluctuations.
There are many well-respected physicists, such as Stephen Hawking, Lawrence Krauss, Sean M. Carroll, Victor Stenger, Michio Kaku, Alan Guth, Alex Vilenkin, Robert A.J. Matthews, and Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek, who have created scientific models where the Big Bang and thus the entire universe could arise from nothing but a random quantum vacuum fluctuation in the quantum field -- via natural processes.
In relativity, gravity is negative energy, and matter and photons are positive energy. Because negative and positive energy seem to be equal in absolute total value, our observable universe appears balanced to the sum of zero. Our universe could thus have come into existence without violating conservation of mass and energy — with the matter of the universe condensing out of the positive energy as the universe cooled, and gravity created from the negative energy.
I know that this doesn't make sense in our Newtonian experience, but it does in the realm of quantum mechanics and relativity. As Nobel laureate physicist Richard Feynman wrote, "The theory of quantum electrodynamics describes nature as absurd from the point of view of common sense. And it agrees fully with experiment. So I hope you can accept nature as she is — absurd."
For more about the Big Bang and its implications, watch the video at the 1st link - "A Universe From Nothing" by theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss, read an interview with him (at the 2nd link), get his new book (at the 3rd link), or read an excerpt from his book (at the 4th link). And, see the 5th link for "The Universe: Big Bang to Now in 10 Easy Steps."

Its funny how you think a magical god and believing it with no doubt and no evidence is more believble than something with evidence. Especially since we have he decency to admit we dont know everything but are willing and excited to learn more c:

I didn't read much of your question but it seems like you don't care what is true or what is reality. Atheist or people who try to prove that god exist are people who want to learn or describe what reality is. If you don't care about reality then that's almost a separate issue all together.

I don't see how these are facts. All I'm hearing is a rant from an obviously brainwashed and patronizing person. When I look at the stars and think about molecules I think of an extreme amount of chaos and "accidents" that are continually occurring.
