Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 310 a God. They say that it is only their deeds that are the cause of their comfort or grief, as if their deeds are their God. It is worth pondering that if the particles of the universe, together with all their properties, are eternal and everlasting like God, then why should God have superiority over them and why should He have control over them? What right did God have to unneces- sarily interfere and usurp their freedom? The fact is that the time has come which was alluded to the in the Book of Allah the Exalted that: 1 ٍ ُجْوُمَّي ْيِف ٍضْعَب َّو َخِفُن يِف ِرْوُّصلا ْمُهٰنْعَمَجَف اًعْمَج َو اَنْكَرَت ْمُهَضْعَب یَوْمَئِذ ٍ ُجْوُمَّي ْيِف ٍضْعَب َّو َخِفُن يِف ِرْوُّصلا ْمُهٰنْعَمَجَف اًعْمَج َو اَنْكَرَت ْمُهَضْعَب یَوْمَئِذ Human nature has exhibited all its dimensions due to the cur- rent freedom, and divisions have reached their climax. It is the age in which every person has, as if, a separate religion. These are the very facts that indicate that this is verily the time for the blowing of the trumpet. And this is the time of fulfilment of the prophecy of ْمُهٰنْعَمَجَف اًعْمَج ْمُهٰنْعَمَجَف اًعْمَج [‘Then shall We gather them all together’]. 2 1. And on that day We shall leave some of them to surge against others, and the trumpet will be blown. Then shall We gather them all together ( S u rah al- Kahf, 18:100). [Publisher] 2.
