Hints of 'time before Big Bang'

[جوري]

We are no different from animals apart from rather more impressive cognitive powers and a never-ending impulse to destroy whatever we come into contact with in the vain hope of making ourselves happier, be it ourselves, other species, or whatever.

Some 'humans' are indeed no different than animals --if not even lesser forms.. I beg to differ speaking equally so on the whole of humanity...

cheers

well said. Humans id say often are much worse. How many wars have been started by cats? How many dog rebellions? Animals typically kill out of the basic needs of survival. Humans do it for fun, religion, politics, greed, greed, greed, selfishness, greed, to name a few. Did i mention greed?

Skye,

Time is one of the attributes/characteristics of Allah... time also belongs to him, an attribute of his..

pls read the ahadiths fully..

I don't understand your logic my sister. Care to clarify that statement? :?

Time was willed into being by the First Cause (Allaah) Whose existence transcends it, but we, the created, are subject to time, and for this we cannot picture in our minds the Lord's state of timelessness. Another thing, our aqeedah doesn't teach it is an attribute of God's - He, the sublime, is beyond both space and time.

And if in truth there is more than one universe as the article suggests, then greater the glory to God; the Qur'an calls Him the Lord of the Worlds.

Regards,

Armand

my reasoning came from this hadith, "The son of Adam wrongs Me: He curses time, though I am time: In My Hands are all things and I cause the night to follow the day." 2 In another narration, He (peace be upon him) says: "Do not curse time, for verily, time is Allah Most Blessed, Most High."

but I agree with you, we can't conceptualize time or the Lord's state of timelessness... If time is imputed to Allah SWT, such as other qualities for instance 'mercy' it makes sense to me that, time would indeed be, before the 'big bang'

Wait, I'm confused, which things in the Quran does this confirm?

I've a different take on this. In the Quran it is mentioned that our universe is inside another universe. Well, before this article I used to believe it is not possible to know, but now I see some possible to know whether our universe is inside another universe or not.
