Refutation of the Doctrine of Trasmigration 5 1 َو اَل ُفْقَت اَم َسْيَل َكَل ٖهِب ٌمْلِع١ؕ َّنِا َعْمَّسلا َو َرَصَبْلا َو َداَؤُفْلا ُّلُك َكِٕىٰٓلوُا َناَك ُهْنَع اًلْؤُـْسَم And follow not that of which you have no knowledge; because the ear, the eye, and the heart will all be called to account. SecoNd Answer— To adopt the belief—on account of our defi - cient knowledge, lack of understanding, and weakness—that the causes of this disparity and the reasons of comfort and discomfort are only the deeds of our previous life cycle is akin to attributing one thing to another without any reason. This audacity is of the type that if we see a person going somewhere in the darkness of night, we come up with a self-conceived inference that, since the courts are off and the markets are closed, there is no reason for this man to go about during this time except to commit theft. The wise should reflect what type of reasoning and logic this is! That is why the Holy Quran has described the believers of transmigration to have fallen into conjecture. َو اْوُلاَق اَم َيِه اَّلِا اَنُتاَيَح اَيْنُّدلا ُتْوُمَن َو اَيْحَن َو اَم ۤاَنُكِلْهُي اَّلِا ُرْهَّدلا١ۚ َو اَم ْمُهَل َكِلٰذِب ْنِم 2 ٍمْلِع١ۚ ْنِا ْمُه اَّلِا َنْوُّنُظَي And they say, there is nothing for us but this our worldly life. We die and we live and nothing but time destroys us. They have no real knowledge of it, they only indulge in conjecture. 1. S u rah Ban i Isr a ’ i l, 17:37 [Publisher] 2.
