Different Theories of the Creation of the Universe:
Those who, independent of revelation, attempt to unravel the mystery of the creation of the universe using only intellect and reason, have not been able to agree on a single opinion. One group believes that this universe is made of matter, and that it came into existence as a result of matter and coincidences. The real thing is matter, and it alone is eternal and everlasting. In the universe, the status of man is like that of a bubble in the ocean, which is formed by the waves of air and then merges back into the ocean. In the same way, we are born and we die.
Different Theories Regarding the Existence of Allah and the Hereafter:
These people are deniers of the existence of Allah and also deniers of the Hereafter. Such people are called materialists, atheists, or naturalists. Among the People of the Book, and even among Muslims, some people are naturalists either in belief or in practice. The second group consists of some philosophers and scientists who, upon observing this universe and its coherent and organized system, have concluded that it is impossible for the system of the universe to function without a controlling being. Therefore, there is no choice but to acknowledge such a being who brought this universe into existence and is running its system. In this way, these people do believe in the existence of Allah, but they do not have faith in the life of the Hereafter. Probably, the reason for this is that these people want to live their lives free from the restrictions of religion. The religion of the polytheists of Makkah was very similar to these people, who believed in Allah as the Creator and Owner, but did not believe in the life of the Hereafter. However, they considered themselves followers of the religion of Ibrahim. They worshipped idols and deities for two reasons: one, so that their worldly needs would be fulfilled and their difficulties removed, and second, so that through their intercession they could attain closeness to Allah. Since faith in the Hereafter is also an important part of faith in the unseen, therefore, despite acknowledging the existence of Allah, Allah has declared such people to be disbelievers.
