S.A ,
as I said in my first thread ,I want to keep sharing things I read about ,because some of them upset me and I would like to hear the opinion of the forum community here.
What I will be writing about now is the topic that is cooking my brain the most.
I am sure some of you have already read somewhere that we experience the world through our brains ,and what we see and feel only exists in our brains.
That means we you look at a tree ,you merely see an imagine of the tree created by your brain through impulses received by your eyes and transmitted to the brain.It is like watching a movie
on TV ,what you see in the TV is just an image created by electrical particles hitting on a special screen to create an image.
Scientists say that it is a scientific fact that reality is inside our brains ,and quantum physicists go further by saying that it is our minds/consciousness that creates reality ,and some even claimed that
if no one is looking at the moon ,it cannot be said that moon is existing.But Allah has clearly said in the Quran that he created the universe before anyone was there.So it means reality or the world exists outside our brains
without anyone having to experience it.The world is not just made of images created in our brains ,experienced by our souls.It is there ,independent of any living being.
There is even a person called Harun Yahya who has a website and several articles regarding this matter.One of his articles is called "Matter ,another name for illusion".In that article here quotes several Scientists talking about he issue.
I have done further research and found out that he actually copied most of the article from another website and added words of the Quran to proof what we are reading is true.
One of his strongest arguments is that if we were to look so deep inside an atom ,we would find that it is 99.99% empty space , which means the whole universe is 99.99% empty space or what he said "nothing".
While there is no doubt that Allah can created the whole universe as we see it consisting of almost nothing ,I cant accept the fact that many well known scientists say that everything we see is nothing ,it is just an illusion.
I know that what we humans know about the universe is almost close to nothing and that scientists develop theories ,and theories dont mean that what they say is true.
They say what we actually see and experience is just a copy of our brains of what is outside our brains and we will never be able to know whats really there outside our brains.
Some muslims might say yes this life is only a deception or illusion because the quran said that dont let this life fool you.But I dont think that what is meant by this is that everything around us is an illusion ,it just
means that we humans think that we can life happy forever and that whatever we reach in material gains is the ultimate goal but we forget that this all is going to end one day.
