God Addresses Those Who Remain Willing in Employing Their Mind in Reading the Signs of God 2nd September, 2017

This is from the Qur’an, Chapter 76, Verses 1–3:
“Has there not come upon man a period of time when he was not even a thing mentioned? Indeed, We created man from a drop of mingled sperm so that We may test him; and We gave him hearing and sight. Indeed, We guided him to the path—whether he chooses to be grateful or ungrateful.”

Elsewhere, particularly from Chapter 67 onward, the Qur’an offers profound reasoning on the certainty of the Hereafter—an occurrence as inevitable as death itself.

One striking feature of the Qur’an is that God engages only with those willing to think. He appeals to reason, logic, and reflection. His address is meant for people of intellect—those who are ready to ponder and use the faculties He has granted.

He shows no interest in those who choose to live thoughtlessly.
