✿ Simple and Intuitive Arguments for the Existence of God ✿
By: Muzaffar Sheikh Bismil
To affirm the existence of God, deep philosophical debates are not essential.
Rather, simple and intuitive arguments based on everyday observations are sufficient for any ordinary person to arrive at the truth.
✔ Intuitive Observation:
Everything in this world is dependent on some creator.
No factory, building, ship, or vehicle comes into existence by itself—every creation has a maker.
✔ The Example of a Farmer:
If a sack of rice or wheat is placed before a villager, he easily understands that this grain has passed through stages of sowing, harvesting, and cleaning.
✔ The Example of a Chicken Egg:
How does a chick develop inside an egg?
There must be some force working behind it.
Even though this force is unseen, its presence is undeniable.
The discussion is not about how that force works, but the important point is that it does.
If a common man accepts that even the smallest things need a creator, then he must also accept that a vast and complex universe cannot have come into existence on its own.
✔ The idea of self-creation is illogical and contradicts basic observational knowledge.
In the past, the theory of Abiogenesis claimed that insects like mosquitoes and flies could emerge spontaneously from mud and filth.
However, scientific research later disproved this theory.
✔ The conclusion was:
Life only comes from life.
A critical question arises:
Do material causes operate independently, or are they guided?
If one claims they are intrinsic to matter itself, then the question remains:
Who determined those properties?
✔ Example:
Water boils at 100°C.
But who set this law?
What is the underlying cause of this order?
For a seed to germinate, it requires water, oxygen, and temperature.
But why does germination occur only under specific conditions?
Who has arranged this system and order?
What science refers to as the “process of creation”, is seen as divine guidance from a theological perspective.
✔ Example:
When the embryo in an egg activates, the process of birth begins.
Science may describe this as natural processes, but the believer calls it guidance and divine arrangement.
✔ The existence of God can be understood through simple observations and intuitive reasoning.
✔ Behind every object, there is a creator, a guiding force, and a defined order.
✔ Material causes do not function autonomously; they are guided by an unseen power.
✔ The role of science is to explain material mechanisms, not to disprove the existence of God.

❖ No Need for Complex Philosophy
To affirm the existence of God, deep philosophical debates are not essential.
Rather, simple and intuitive arguments based on everyday observations are sufficient for any ordinary person to arrive at the truth.
❖ ① Every Thing Has a Creator
✔ Intuitive Observation:
Everything in this world is dependent on some creator.
No factory, building, ship, or vehicle comes into existence by itself—every creation has a maker.
❖ ② Simple Common-Sense Examples
✔ The Example of a Farmer:
If a sack of rice or wheat is placed before a villager, he easily understands that this grain has passed through stages of sowing, harvesting, and cleaning.
✔ The Example of a Chicken Egg:
How does a chick develop inside an egg?
There must be some force working behind it.
Even though this force is unseen, its presence is undeniable.
The discussion is not about how that force works, but the important point is that it does.
❖ ③ The Creator of the Universe
If a common man accepts that even the smallest things need a creator, then he must also accept that a vast and complex universe cannot have come into existence on its own.
✔ The idea of self-creation is illogical and contradicts basic observational knowledge.
❖ The Problem with Material Causes
➊ The Inadmissibility of Self-Creation
In the past, the theory of Abiogenesis claimed that insects like mosquitoes and flies could emerge spontaneously from mud and filth.
However, scientific research later disproved this theory.
✔ The conclusion was:
Life only comes from life.
➋ Are Material Causes Self-Driven or Guided?
A critical question arises:
Do material causes operate independently, or are they guided?
If one claims they are intrinsic to matter itself, then the question remains:
Who determined those properties?
✔ Example:
Water boils at 100°C.
But who set this law?
What is the underlying cause of this order?
❖ Creation and the Process of Creation
➊ The Act of Creation
For a seed to germinate, it requires water, oxygen, and temperature.
But why does germination occur only under specific conditions?
Who has arranged this system and order?
➋ Guidance and Design
What science refers to as the “process of creation”, is seen as divine guidance from a theological perspective.
✔ Example:
When the embryo in an egg activates, the process of birth begins.
Science may describe this as natural processes, but the believer calls it guidance and divine arrangement.
❖ Summary
✔ The existence of God can be understood through simple observations and intuitive reasoning.
✔ Behind every object, there is a creator, a guiding force, and a defined order.
✔ Material causes do not function autonomously; they are guided by an unseen power.
✔ The role of science is to explain material mechanisms, not to disprove the existence of God.
