And peace and blessings be upon the Messengers and Prophets, Muhammad and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him and upon his family and his companions. From Abado. One of my very good and dear friends asked me a question on behalf of his friend. He said, my friend, he's asking, he says, I believe in God. But why do I need religion? I believe in God. So I believe in Allah. But why do I need Islam? For what? Why do I need Islam? I believe in Allah. Why do I need religion? So let me take it a step further to answer him. Because this is a question that might be in the minds of many people. It's not only him. Let me take it a step further. And the step further I want to take it is You say, I believe in God. I believe in Allah. Why do I need religion? So I will say to you that you believe in Allah. You don't even need to believe in Allah. First, take that, take from there. You do not need to believe in Allah to be a Muslim. in Allah. So don't believe in Allah. There are lots of atheists in the world. They're not getting cancer. They're not getting COVID. They're not getting paralyzed. They're not dying. They're living happily, right? Lots of atheists. So why do you need to believe in God? Second point, you might say, well, I am an honest, decent, ethical, moral human being. I will not lie. I will not cheat. I will not fornicate. I will not run away with somebody else's wife. I will not murder. I will not use foul language because I will not use drugs. I will not drink alcohol, right? Because to do all of these things, I don't need to have some threat of Jahannam or some, you know, enticement or reward of Jannah to do that. This is a decent way of doing things. I don't need to have some threat of Jahannam or some, you know, of living in this life. And between you and me, I know, I know many people, including atheists in this country and other countries who are among the most beautiful people that I know. Absolute integrity. I will trust them with my life without a second thought. But they're not Muslim. They're not anything. They don't believe in God, nothing. So why do you need to believe in God? Why do you need to believe in God? Why do you need to believe in God? Why do you need to believe in God? Why do you need to believe in God? Why do you need to believe in God? Why should you believe in God? think about this because these are things, that is the reason why, I'll come to the answer to this, but that is the reason why, we have this very loose attitude towards religion. But because we really don't understand the significance, the importance of it. So let me tell you why? Isn't this crashed into knowledge? Okay. Isn't this iron "...zythNoR..." Isn't this iron... Isa saying, Kanchan? Isn't this iron... Isa saying, Kanchan? Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala told us why. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said, أَمَّا يَتَسَاءَلُونَ عَنِ النَّبَيِّ الْعَظِيمِ أَلَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ In Surah An-Naba, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said, What is all this argument? What is this big fighting? Somebody says there is a day of judgment. Somebody says there is no day of judgment. Somebody says you will be resurrected after you die. Somebody says no resurrection. I become mud and dust and what not. What is all this argument? What is this argument about the Nabail Azeem, about the great news, the great day, the great, you know, Nabal? What is this argument? Allah said, You will find out. Definitely you will find out. ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ And then, see the beauty of the Bayan of the Quran.
