At the Boundary of the Mind

 At the Boundary of the Mind


Philosophers prioritize reason before everything and the result is they go 

astray. Theologians work with reason within the field of revelation, but they 

also get stuck at a certain point. For this reason, the Muslims (who submits their will to Allah's will)reach the perfection of servitude with submission where the power of intellect ends because Islam is named after submission. In this respect, the Muslims  do not enter into disputes with Allah,  since they continue on their way by surrendering to Allah, the Prophet and the 

Book of Allah.


The devil was the first one who disputed with Allah due to an excess in the force of the intellect stemming from his arrogance. He could not comprehend the inadequacy of his mind and opposed the command of Allah, he said, ‘I am superior to Adam.’ However, Allah didn’t ask him, ‘Are you superior or Adam?’ He only commanded him to obey. In the same way today, saying, ‘It 

cannot be otherwise at this time. In my opinion, that’s how it should be. If the prophet had come today, he would have done as I thought.’ making concessions from Allah’s commands does nothing but eclipses the reason.
