Knowledge of God and God's law 2

Islam teaches us to seek out understanding. We are instructed to reflect on God and God's creation. Islam not a religion of blind faith or mindless fanaticism. Islam is a religion for thinking conscious people.

The likeness of the life of the present is as the rain which We send down from the skies:
by its mingling arises the produce of the earth - which provides food for men and animals:
(it grows) till the earth is clad with its golden ornaments and is decked out in beauty):
the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it:
there reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-mown, as if it had not flourished only the day before!
Thus do We explain the Signs in detail for those who reflect.

The Holy Quran, Yunus - 10:24

It is Allah Who has subjected the sea to you, that ships may sail through it by His command, that ye may seek of His Bounty, and that ye may be grateful.
And He has subjected to you, as from Him, all that is in the heavens and on earth: behold in that are Signs indeed for those who reflect. 


The Holy Quran, Al-Jathiya - 45:12-13
