| Recognition of God
The question which arises here is, "How can all people be expected to believe in God
given their varying backgrounds, societies, and cultures?" For people to be
responsible for worshipping God, they all have to have access to knowledge of God.
The final revelation teaches that all mankind have the recognition of God imprinted
on their souls, a part of their very nature with which they are created.
In the Qur'an (7:172-173), God explained that when He created Adam, He caused all
of Adam's descendants to come into existence and took a pledge from them saying,
"Am I not your Lord?" To which they all replied, "Yes, we testify." God then
explained why He had all of mankind bear witness that He is their Creator and only
true God worthy of worship. He said, "That was in case you (mankind) should say on
the day of Resurrection, 'Verily we were unaware of all this.'" That is to say, we had
no idea that You were our God. No one told us that we were only supposed to
worship You alone. God went on to explain that it was also in case you should say,
"It was only our fathers aforetime who took others as partners in worship along with
God, and we were merely their descendants after them; will You then destroy us
because of the deeds of those sinful criminals?"
Thus, every child is born with a
natural belief in God and an inborn inclination to worship Him alone
called in Arabic
the "Fitrah."
Prophets were sent, as was earlier mentioned, to every nation and tribe to support
man's natural belief in God and man's inborn inclination to worship Him as well as to
reinforce the divine truth in the daily signs revealed by God. Although, in most cases,
much of the Prophets' teachings became distorted and portions remained which point
out right and wrong. Consequently, every soul will be held to account for its belief in
God and its acceptance of the religion of Islam:
the total submission to the will of
God.
