“In your book 'Ihya-e-Islam' you wrote that today's era is God-worship versus human-worship. What does that mean? It is said that transfer of seat from God to man. That is, now man is considered the center.”Asked by Abdul Basit Umari, Doha, Qatar
maulana yeh sawal aaya hai doha qatar se maulana abdul basit umri ka. unhon ne likha hai ke maulana aap ki kitab ahyae islam mein likha hai ke aaj ka daur khuda parasti versus muqabla insan parasti hai. us ka kya matlab hai? yeh kaha jata hai ke transfer of seat from god to man. yaani ab jo hai insan hi ko center samajh liya gaya hai. pehle khuda center hua karta tha. yaani god centered thinking hua karti thi pehle. ab insan centered thinking ban gayi hai. ab khuda ko unhon ne nazar andaaz kar diya.
khuda se koi matlab hi nahin. to sirf insan ke bare mein sochna. insan ke bare mein sochna. har jo bhi soch hai jo bhi planning hai wo sab insan ko le kar ke. khuda ko le kar ke nahin. to us mein tafseel maujood hai aap us ko phir se padhiye. dobara padhiye aap us se aap ko yeh baat clear ho jayegi. maulana ek aur sawal hai un ka. unhon ne likha hai ke mera tajurba hai ke aksar log al risala ko sirf ek periodical ki hesiyat se padhte hain.
