Do humans have needed knowledge to discuss God, revelation and creation?

Deen of Islam is anti religion and anti secularism but why?
It is because religion and secularism both are man-made and they have been brought about by dominant and leading people to cause harm and destruction to rest of people in human populations for securing their own individual petty personal gains from them so deen of Islam was revealed by God for humanity so that mankind replace them with it for ensuring their own well being through help and full support of each other by complementing each other purposefully properly according to it instead of rivalling each other for securing their own individual petty personal gains from each other at each other’s expense. As I explained already religion and secularism are almost as old as humanity itself because mankind were not given purpose based proper guidance by God till human beings could understand things and at least some were able to make purpose based proper sense of creation and revelation of God in light of each other purposefully properly. Early humans learned what they learned from natural world because they did not have any other source of learning. This is why they lived just like other animals but as they interacted with each other and with other things in their environment, they did learn a lot of sense by copying other things but it was not enough to help them live in this world purposefully properly till God gave humanity his purpose based proper guidance for this purpose. People did believe in a higher force or being even before God formerly introduced himself to mankind but they assumed a God who was just like their rulers who solved their problem the way it suited the rulers and not the way it suited people they ruled. The animal kingdom shows us our past very clearly and we are still like those animals even today. God sent revelation is still ignored by humanity at large for its purpose based proper understanding because rulers always interpreted and explained the messages of God the way it suited them instead of trying to make purpose based proper sense of it. This is why due to lack of purpose based proper education and training humanity has been going through bloody revolutions every now and then to change things for the better. In other words people have been learning things the hard way instead of learning sense of making purpose based proper sense of things the right way. This is why despite having guidance from God and many prophets and messengers from God almost all people are still as ignorant and stupid about message of God as were the very early human beings who were given the message of God the very first time.
The prophets and messengers of God were sent by God to establish his advised purpose based proper way of life, rule of law and governing system in the human world in kingdom of God and they succeeded in doing that but only in very limited areas and only for a short time because people turned back to their old ways of life, rules of law and governing systems after their God sent prophets and messengers passed away. The very same happened with the people who claim to be supporters of mission of the final prophet and messenger of God ie people who call themselves Muslims. This is why even after the final prophet and messenger of God established the ummah (the purpose based proper human community) in the kingdom of God it also fell apart not long after prophet and messenger of God because people failed to keep up with the maintenance of the ummah in the kingdom of God. This is why even though we have the Quran we have no ummah but only in the name till humanity comes to its senses and learns the Quran as it ought to be learned once again to reunite to regain unity, peace, progress and prosperity. This should help people understand why Muslims are the way they are and this is not going to change till each and every person who claims to be a Muslim starts learning the Quran purposefully properly. This is why almost all people who claim to be Muslims are religious and secular Muslims and not actual Muslims based upon the purpose based proper teachings of the Quran and the reason is they do not study the Quran as it ought to be studied for establishing an ummah in a place in the kingdom of God. People who claim to be Muslims are as ignorant about the message of God as are any non-Muslim people if not more. This is why Muslims and non-Muslims are all living like animals in a jungle because that is how senseless people are supposed to live without purpose based proper guidance from God or without purpose based proper understanding of guidance from God. This is why the human world despite all its amazing inventions it has invented is still just like a kingdom of animals who still do not know how to live purposefully properly with one another and it will not know how to do that till it rediscovers message of God purposefully properly for itself because only and only purpose based proper message of God and its purpose based proper understanding can ensure unity, peace, progress and prosperity of mankind in a place in the kingdom of God and nothing else.
Why five daily prayers are wrong? It is because to begin with they serve no useful purpose for God or humanity. They are used by people for praising God by words of mouth and asking God for things they need. People can only praise God when they see need for praising God so they cannot be forced to praise God. Feelings of people keep changing moment by moment. At one time they like doing something but at another time they do not feel like doing something. So God cannot bind people to any strict practice when it serves no purpose for them. Also God cannot tell or force people to praise him because it cannot reflect nicely on God to do so. It is like a person is pointing a gun to someone’s head and telling him to say I am a very nice person. What kind of praising will that be which is forced out of someone by force. In case of God, he has to prove himself awesome to mankind to be truly praiseworthy in their eyes. He has to force people by his wonderful and awesome acts and works that people all by themselves appreciate greatness of his creativity. So praising and appreciating God’s greatness has to be an automatic and natural act of people. It is like you come across something wonderful a person has created and you appreciate it as well as its creator. For this reason God could never tell people to praise him. As for praying to God for seeking things from him, again God could not tell people to do so and then do not fulfil their requests or demands. God could only tell people to pray to him for things if he could respond to their prayers not otherwise. So the idea that God has ordered mankind to praise God and pray to him for things has been created by someone who lacked sense of making purpose based proper sense of things. The Quran does contain such sayings by the prophets and messengers of God as well as of other people but they are their wishes which are expressed by them to God. There is nothing wrong with expressing one’s hopes and desires or wishes and ambitions so long as they are not against God and humanity but instead they are for the good of mankind. For example, when we travel to some place, we wish for having a safe journey. When we start a project we wish for its completion etc etc. Moreover when our wishes come true or things happen as we wished then we express gratitude to God as well as other people and things which help us complete the project. In doing so we express our feelings with various depths not mere empty words which are forced out of our minds and mouths by force against our will. This is why five times daily prayers are not stated in the Quran.
Another reason why they are not stated in the Quran is because God did not create mankind to humiliate them just as he himself does not want to be called by bad names for he wants mutual respect between himself and mankind. Just as God wants to be appreciated by mankind so God himself appreciates mankind also when they think, plan and do something which needs to be appreciated and valued. God is not a monster or tyrant or bully or a cruel and brutal oppressor of the weak. This is why the whole process of creation of God needs to be looked at in a purposeful way in its entirety. This is why God rewards all for whatever part they play in his scheme of things. This is why God does not want worship in sense of pooja from mankind through empty lip service and useless ritual practices which benefit neither God nor mankind. He does not want empty lip service and flattering from mankind but actual appreciation from mankind by giving them things that truly make him appreciable for mankind. I will try and explain words a bit later as to what they mean in the purpose based proper context of the Quran including word SHUKR from root SHEEN, KAAF and RAA which means appreciation by means of purpose based proper use of God given things. Moreover it makes no sense the way people pray to God or say thank you God without doing the actual things God demands of them ie proper use of his provided things for benefit of mankind for sake of God. God has told people what he wants of them in the Quran. What God wants of people could not be known by people all by themselves unless God himself told them, this is why understanding the Quran purposefully properly is absolutely necessary for mankind otherwise they can think, plan and do what they like but it will not fulfil the purpose for which God has created and equipped mankind with all the tools and things to work with. This is why purpose based proper understanding of the Quran cannot be ignored if people want to have a great life in here as well as in hereafter. This is why whatever people think, plan and do in the name of God outside of the Quran all by themselves is not valid at all in the eyes of God and it hardly benefits humanity itself. For the reasons explained already the Quran does not talk about imposition of five times daily prayers at all. This is why it does not mention at all what is supposed to be involved in daily prayers ie what is to be recited in the ritual prayers and when as well as what are to be the ritualistic movements during the prayers and how they are supposed to be performed and in which order etc etc. In fact there is no mentions of such daily prayers and how they are supposed to be performed even in the Ahaadith books as a single continuous process. This should prove beyond a shadow of doubt for any sensible person to see the fact that five daily ritual prayers have nothing at all to do with the actual Quranic text and actual way of life, actual rule of law and actual governing system called Islam. The same is true about the rest of four so called ritual pillars of Islam of mullahs ie ritual prayer kind of worship of one true God, fasting for God, paying a bit of wealth in form of charity to poor people for God and visiting a stone structure called kaaba in Makkah in Saudi Arabia. All these like beliefs and practices are very harmful and destructive for humanity due to wasting time of people as well as due to misdirecting and misguiding people from actual objectives and goals which God has set for humanity to achieve and accomplish so that it could reach heights of excellence to have blissful, dignified and secure state of existence in here as well as in hereafter.
So first of all let us see what so called praying to God involves. It has two parts. Part one involves praising God ie saying nice things about God to God as if to fool God by flattery by paying lip service to God. Why I say lip service? It is because we humans do not try to learn things which could help us understand the Quran purposefully properly so that we could know what God wants of us to think, plan and do. This is why we do not think, plan and do what God has told us to do and instead we do things which he has told us not to do. Yet we turn towards God and say things to God about God which do not really mean anything at all. Moreover God has created us to serve him by thinking, planning and doing whatever he has asked us to think, plan and do and not to take God as our slave or servant by asking God to do this or that and the other for us. We do this as if we are not workers or servants of God rather it is God who is our slave or servant or worker. God has created us for serving his purpose according to his plan and not that God should serve our purposes according to our plans which we have created in our own minds independent of God. The fact is, we humans have already been given by God each and everything we will ever need for doing our job assigned to us by God. This being the case, how right could people be in saying things to God about God or for asking him for favours? This will become clearer once I have explained this issue for people to help them understand it. In a way we are turning things upside down. Such like are the reasons as to why the Quranic teaching is anti religion and anti secularism. Regardless the other part of praying to God involves asking God for each and everything we want from him ie we have very long lists of our demands to put before God. All this is useless because God has already given humanity what it needs for fulfilling purpose of God for which he has created them. It therefore makes absolutely no sense to ask God for things which we already have from God including his purpose based proper guidance for us regarding purposeful proper use of those God given things for our benefits as a purpose based proper human community in a place in his kingdom. So after God has given things to us if we still do not have them then it is not because of God but because we have not learned the needed sense as to how to manage and handle God given things purposefully properly as a purpose based proper human community in the kingdom of God so that none of us suffers and all of us have a great life in this world with help and full support of each other by complementing each other purposefully properly for ensuring well being of each other. It is human beings who make one another suffer terribly by hands of each other due to their ignorance about God assigned purpose of life and the way it should be fulfilled by them. This explains why human beings cannot criticise God about things for which he is not responsible because he has made humanity itself responsible for thinking, planning and doing things for one another for his sake. We also need to think about what we are taking God as by asking God for doing things for us because we are treating God as if he is our servant or slave instead of we humans being servants and workers of God. We have turned each and everything God has told us upside down by misinterpreting and misrepresenting his message to each other. It is because we do not look at things objectively and purposefully properly in their own purpose based proper context. Our fault is we are not trying to understanding the real world realities and the revelation of God in their own purpose based proper contexts respectively in light of each other.
Our idea of education, training and skills is very wrong because in a way we think education, training and skills are all about knowing about things as to what they are or how they work and then copy them and do the same etc etc. If I learn how to make an aeroplane it does not teach me what is actual purpose based proper use of an aeroplane in a social context. Same is true if I make a medicine. This is why despite having loads of medicines we let many people suffer terribly and then die because of our withholding medicines from each other deliberately, so where does that lead us? We withhold food and water from each other let alone luxuries of life. All because we think it is our individual copyright or our intellectual property etc etc. Whereas the fact is we have no universal moral values to live by. How can we human beings be such stupid people when God has gifted us with all we have for the purpose based proper use of all of us? Did God claim any copyrights or intellectual property rights for giving us things we have? We did not create anything out of nothing at all rather all we have invented was created from what was already there when we were born. We ourselves were created by God and things we have were also created by God. All we have been doing is dismantling God made things and reassembling them the way they could benefit us. But when it comes to our benefits for doing that we have decided to withhold things from each other which only and only leads us to fights and wars with each other over those things which were not really our own to begin with rather they were given to us by God for serving his purpose which was to ensure well being of all human beings. This is why we needed a way of life, a rule of law and a governing system which helped us organise and regulate ourselves in a way that we ended up ensuring well being of each other with help and full support of each other by complementing each other purposefully properly. This is where the Quran provides us people of today with an indisputable solid foundation if we prepare ourselves for its purpose based proper understanding and following. We only dispute about the message of God because we have not prepared ourselves purposefully properly for seeking, receiving, studying, accepting and acting upon purpose based proper guidance of our creator and sustainer purposefully properly. We choose such people as religious and secular leaders as use us abusively against each other due to our own ignorance and foolishness so they take undue advantage of us masses who follow them blindly. We use our available time in wrong things which leads us into more and more stupidity which in turn makes us do more and more stupid things to each other and that is how human world keeps getting worse and worse instead of getting better and better. This is why what we need to learn about is purpose based proper way of life, purpose based proper rule of law and purpose based proper governing system from the Quran which help us live in this world the right way or purposefully properly ie the way God intended for us and for which he guided us through his messages.
This is why no matter how much educated, trained and skilled we become or no matter how many degrees and certificates we acquire from no matter how many famous institutions in the human world so long as we remain confused about living purposefully properly in this world none of our inventions can help us live sensibly no matter how long we keep going along this path we have invented and imposed upon each other. For living purposefully properly in this world only and only God can help us do that through his provided purpose based proper guidance for mankind but only if we let God do so by learning his message purposefully properly and acting upon it faithfully. So long as we will keep God therefore his provided universal moral values out of our equation of life we will keep on making our lives hell by securing our own individual petty personal gains from each other at each other’s expense and that is the context in which God talks in the Quran regarding hell and paradise ie you live in this world the way God says then your life will become and remain blissful, dignified and secure as a purpose based proper human community in his kingdom or you live your life your own way as you like then wait till you end up making your lives hell by quarrelling with one another over each and everything. So what God is telling us is very clear that you live for ensuring well being of one another as a purpose based proper human community then soon you will have a great life in this world by your own hard works but if you will work against well being of each other then gradually your world will become and remain a hellhole for yourselves. It is not God who punishes people but people themselves think, plan and do all sorts of terrible things to each other for securing their own individual petty personal gains from each other at each other's expense and then complain and blame God for all that they themselves do to each other. This is why understanding the very first surah of the Quran purposefully properly is very important and so are the very last surahs. God is praiseworthy because he has given people a way of life, a rule of law and a governing system which could help them live a great life in this world as well as to have a great life in hereafter as a reward for it. This is why mankind must seek refuge in God ie in the way of life that is revealed by God for them and not follow way of life the shayateen=harmful and destructive leading and dominant people want us to follow in our human populations. I will talk about shayateen, jinns and malaaikah etc at some other time as well, as to what these words mean in the purpose based proper context of the Quran. The Quran was not revealed so that foolish people make fun of it and burn it but so that mankind learn sense from it and do what is told in it and have a great life experience in this world and so that then they could be rewarded also for their such hard works in hereafter as well.
This is why before people read the Quran they need to prepare themselves purposefully properly for its purpose based proper understanding and acting upon that understanding. One should be able to see from this explanation how silly the Arabs look when they fail to understand and act upon the Quran purposefully properly. It is because the Quran has its own language that is totally different from what Arabs know. It is a higher level of use of human language by God which is purpose based and this is why none can bring a book like the Quran. Till people enable themselves to think at a higher level the Quran requires, they cannot understand and act upon the Quran purposefully properly even if they are Arabs. The Quran teaches people that they are all workers as far as God is concerned and if they will work for fulfilling the purpose for which God has created them then their lives will become great but not otherwise no matter how hard they work and no matter how long they go down that path. As I have explained already, living by religion can lead humanity nowhere. Why not? Because religion has nothing at all to do with real world realities instead it is all about empty words and irrelevant beliefs and ritual practices. People can sit and pray to God all they like but nothing can change because God has created this world on basis of cause and effect chain. This is why if one wants a child one has to go through a process whereby one can get a child. Otherwise no matter how much one cries to God one will not get a child. It is because God has set up this kingdom of his creation to work in a particular way which never changes as he himself tells mankind in the Quran. This world and things in it are not set up by God to work the way people assume they work ie miraculously and magically. This is why no hungry person can get food unless one goes through the related processes for getting the food. God has put measures in place and he has set up systems and structure as well as he has dictated procedures and practices so none can get anything unless one understands the way his laws of nature operate or control or govern the operation of the natural world and things in it.
If no version of religion can give human beings worthy state of existence, can any version of secularism and to what degree? Yes, secularism can give some people relatively better life to some degree but not to the degree the way of life, rule of law and governing system called Islam can. Secularism can only give some people some things on basis of personal gains at each other's expense at the most and not on any other basis. It is because through idea of individualism people only and only work for themselves and not for each other or for ensuring well being of each other. In such a society only and only those people succeed who have what it takes to succeed in that kind of setting in its own context and not those who are relatively less advantaged. This is why the more advantaged people take undue advantages of those who are less advantaged which creates a serious divide between those who have and those who have not so there comes about a gap and a divide between rich and poor or powerful and weak. This being the case as numbers of those who are less advantaged increases there comes about a terrible bloody revolution. This is why to avoid this situation the number of poor and the level of poverty is controlled almost fully by those who have power and wealth through various tricks and mechanisms. This is what forces so called successful individuals to contribute to their societies to remain in positions of power and have wealth at their disposal. Therefore even if they contribute anything to their societies it is not because they are good people but only because if they will not do that then people who have hard life will get upset and revolt or rise up against them and their set up system and topple it or dislodge it and bring it down. So rich and powerful people have organised and regulated their human populations in a way to keep things under their control as much as they can but the natural world is under control of setup purpose based proper systems and laws of God which keep upsetting and unsettling their artificially created balance and equilibrium always and forces change upon people be they powerful and rich or powerless and poor. This is why so far no human being has managed to control humanity fully and none ever will, so tells humanity the Quran. It is because if a particular people will pay attention to any particular people in order to keep them under their control then another people will prepare and rise up against them from elsewhere. So it is the best thing to do for mankind to prepare themselves purposefully properly for seeking, receiving, studying, accepting and acting upon purpose based proper guidance of their creator and sustainer for them purposefully properly instead of ignoring, avoiding and neglecting it and continuously facing terrible consequences by hands of each other for doing so.
In other words God has set up this world to work in such a way that mankind can never take full control of it to take it in the totally wrong direction rather whatever people think, plan and do it will always lead the human world in the right direction be it bit by bit or in very, very small and unnoticeable steps or very, very slowly. If mankind could succeed in taking the human world in the wrong direction then purpose and plan of God could fail this is why that cannot happen at all. However God does wants people to learn purpose based proper sense and move in the right direction and quickly all by themselves to save themselves from all kinds of terrible painful sufferings by hands of each other. It is like a case of two babies who are put in two different environments. One is never sent to school or any teacher to learn things and the other who is sent to school or a learned teacher to learn things. One who is sent to school will learn things very fast due to being taught things compared to the one who has never been to school and never been taught. Likewise people who will learn from each other and who will teach each other about the real word realities as well as the Quran purposefully properly in light of each other they will succeed as well as fast and they will save themselves from a lot of terrible painful suffering by hands of each other but those who will not do so they will move very, very slowly on this journey of learning and discovery and they will keep on suffering terribly by hands of each other. The while humanity by passes, ignores, avoids and neglects the Quran their this situation of terrible painful suffering by hands of each other will continuously prevail and continue for them till they turn towards the Quran for their purpose based proper guidance by learning the required or needed or necessary sense of making purpose based proper sense of things. This is why the Quran is a purpose based proper teacher for mankind but this teacher has its own way of interacting with people. The Quran is a teacher because it points out things for people to learn about them or that it acts as a stimulus for them to inspire or urge or encourage or motivate or trigger or activate them. If we look at the process of teaching and learning as to how we are taught and learn, we will see that it is done the very same way. What a teacher does is, points out things for us to consider and then we ourselves try and figure them out in our minds in order to try and understand them. The very same applies in case of the Quran ie it too brings different things to our attention for figuring them out the best we can. So thinking the Quran is a useless book is not the right way of looking at the Quran because it is a very useful book for humanity once it is understood purposefully properly in its own purpose based proper context by mankind. The basic point the Quran makes is, don't live for yourself or for each other but instead live for sake of fulfilling the purpose for which God has created you. This explanation clearly shows limitations of religion and secularism in comparison to way of life, rule of law and governing system which are advised by God for humanity in the Quran so that mankind live purposefully properly in this world. This is why no human can bring about a way of life like the one the Quran suggests let alone any better way of life than the Quran. This is why no human being can write a book like the Quran even today let alone a better book than the Quran.
This explanation clearly shows all versions of religion and secularism are invented, imposed and used by rulers, money lenders and priest to control masses in their human populations with help and support of each other. They are used as a process and a mechanism to pass on the buck between themselves to fool the masses in their human populations because where rulers fail to provide masses with what they need by design they make excuses to them on basis of their religious beliefs and practices by saying things are in the hands of God so let us pray to God to put things right for us etc etc. Also they pass on blame to each other about their created problems which people in their human populations face and that way they confuse masses about whom they should actually blame for what they are going through. They can make fool of masses so easily because masses do not and cannot see and become aware of things the way they should due to their remaining ignorant and foolish or due to their leading and dominant people keeping them ignorant and foolish due to lack of purpose based proper education, training and skills so due to being foolish they keep on trusting their so called dominant people and leaders blindly so they keep turning to their secular and religious leaders and economic experts etc etc for solutions of their problems instead of turning to the book of their creator and sustainer which shows them how to get out of this ruler, money lender and mullah invented confusion called religion and secularism by organising and regulating themselves purposefully properly for solving the problems they are facing. This leaves them totally vulnerable and open to abusive use, blackmailing, exploitation and manipulation by both religious and secular leaders and their helpers and supporters due to confusion or traps they have created for masses to entrap them. This is how the Quran clearly exposes all kinds of ways of life, rules of laws and governing systems people have come up with or they have imposed upon each other or they have adopted so far, be it imperialism or dictatorship or authoritarianism or capitalism or communism or socialism etc etc. None of these can give people what the Quranic way of life, rule of law and governing system can give them. It is because all of these ideas are based upon petty personal gains for a few at the expense of all others in their human populations. This is why one should be able to see why one has to study the Quran purposefully properly in depth to get the hang of it or hold of its purpose based proper teachings. This clearly shows why Islam is not and cannot be a religion. The so called or so labelled religion of Islam has been invented by foolish mullahs or priestly classes on behalf of foolish ruling classes and money lending classes to confuse people in the very name of one true God so that the real way of life, real rule of law and real governing system called or labelled Islam by the Quran could be covered up or hidden from the eyes of the ignorant and uneducated, unskilled or illiterate masses so that that way masses could be used abusively by rulers, money lenders and mullahs without any reaction or bloody revolution by the abused masses. This explanation should leave no doubt in minds of people as to what actual deen of islam or way of life, rule of law and governing system called Islam really is. It has nothing at all to do with Islam of rulers, money lenders, mullaans, their touts and supporters.
This explanation also explains very clearly the fact that deen of Islam is only and only about ensuring well being of humanity from the very beginning to the very end provided people understand and adopt it purposefully properly and faithfully by acting upon it purposefully properly. This is why deen of Islam is actually from God for ensuring well being of humanity through their own help and full support of each other by their own complementing each other purposefully properly therefore it is an ideology which is all about human society, its politics, its culture and its economy and it has nothing at all to do with prayers to God or any other baseless make beliefs and ritualism or useless and time wasting or harmful and destructive practices. It has its own governing systems, structures, procedures and practices. Deen of Islam is all about people themselves organising and regulating themselves upon its basis or provided foundation for managing and handling God given land and resources or means of production and distribution as a single purpose based proper human family or community for serving God and that is what the Quran calls IBAADAH or serving one true God and this has nothing at all to do with pooja or worship of God through rituals by people and their singing songs to God and doing nothing except rubbing their noses on the ground and waving their behinds in the air and feeling good that they have done their part. Muslim cannot take over a people by sword unless forced to do so by non-Muslims because deen of Islam is all about supporting each other for ensuring well being of each other and who in the right mind can oppose this idea that one needs to take up arms? It is always abusers, exploiters and manipulators of humanity who benefit from abusing others who oppose deen of Islam and that is why they impose fights and wars upon true Muslims and that is the true position of actual deen of Islam and true Muslims if there are any. Muslims cannot need or want anything for themselves or others but only and only seek pleasure of their creator and sustainer by doing works which he told them to do to ensure well being of whole of humanity with full help and support of each other through their complementing each other purposefully properly. A Muslim society has to be a self regulated complimentary human society and not a society based upon rivalry or negative competition. If one learns sense of making purpose based proper sense of things and then reads the Quran, one will soon find out the Quran is not a book from any human being but a book that is from outside of this human world. However if people will not learn sense to make purpose based proper sense of the message of the Quran then they will never know what the real message of God in the Quran is for them.
However the more and more human beings will ignore or avoid or neglect or abandon or desert the Quran and therefore the Quran based purpose based proper Islam as a purpose based proper way of life, as a purpose based proper rule of law and as a purpose based proper governing system the more and more painful and agonising suffering will become norm for humanity by hands of each other over longer and longer period of time as a consequence. Such excuse is not valid for people that since people who claim to be Muslims do not understand and use the Quran purposefully properly so it has nothing to do with non-Muslims. It is because God if there is one is God of each and everything and it is he who has sent his message for all mankind so those who will prepare themselves purposefully properly for seeking, receiving, studying, accept and acting upon it purposefully properly they will have a great life in here as well as in hereafter whereas those who will not do so they will end up and remain in a terribly painful existence always by hands of each other no matter what. These are not threats by God but advance or forewarnings from God for sensible people to not to blindly follow each other into the hell hole which is dug by people themselves for themselves by not following advice of God at all. Deen of Islam is a true and real or actual democratic system because it is a party-less system wherein all individuals are equal members of the ummah or purpose based proper human family. What does that mean? It means power rests with rule of law of God as purposefully properly understood by the individuals in light of real world realities who can then come together as a purpose based proper human community and so they can appoint fully capable people into all the needed work places to serve them for God sake as all agree or in order to fulfil the purpose based proper Quranic program by accomplishing its goals according to its provided guidelines for fulfilling needs and wants of all members of purpose based proper human community. This system works like a referendum in which all discuss things and vote for each and every individual issue and the issue is decided on the basis of purpose based proper understanding of the Quran and the real world realities as well as needs and wants of people as individuals by a simple majority or unanimity. In a way it is bottom up system as compared to people taking over each other by force or by tricks or deceptive mechanisms whereby they create a pyramid of power structure to abuse weaker people from among themselves. So when it comes to bringing about a purpose based proper human community in the kingdom of God, if people cannot even understand the real world realities and the Quran purposefully properly in light of each other in the first place then could they or can they bring about a purpose based proper human community or create a book like the Quran all by themselves? Not at all. The Quran by making such points shows humanity, it is a book from outside this human world ie it is not written by human beings. It is because human beings do not think the way the Quran does otherwise they will not need it. Moreover if human beings could produce a book like the Quran then our human world in no way could be the way it is right before our very eyes ie in a terrible state of existence. It will have been a paradise instead.
If God has created this kingdom of his creation and people in it in actual fact then he needed to tell people why he has created it as well as why created them and what they needed to do to fulfil his purpose of creating them and he has done that. God is not supposed to react to what people assume, imagine and demand or his own plan will end up derailed. This being the case, why will God tell people for praying to him when he does not and he cannot answer their prayers as he ought to according to beliefs and practices of people as they imagine and assume them to be the case? Moreover why will God set times for prayers of people? It is because even if praying was ok, people will only praise God when they got good things from God and they will only seek help of God when they are in real troubles and truly need help of God. Not only that but if God asks people to do that then God ought to fulfil their demands or whatever they ask for otherwise why ask people for prayer to waste their time and energies in the first place? This is why it makes absolutely no sense to have five daily prayers at fixed times and with fixed wording for prayers because prayer should be depending on situations or circumstances of people themselves as individuals and as groups. Yet another point in this regard is, God has his own purpose and plan for creating us so if he listens to us or fulfils our demands according to our wishes then how can God carry out his own plan for fulfilling his own purpose? Moreover we each have our own conflicting demands because we are always in conflict with each other, so how can God please each and every one of us? Therefore it makes sense for God to give us all his standard and program to live by rather than he himself following our wishy-washy and willy-nilly wishes and desires so that we all could mould or bend or model ourselves according to him rather than trying to mould God to fit our demands according to our self created conflicting standards, ambitions and desires. When it comes to God, the Quran and deen of Islam; things only seem mysterious for us because we are ignorant about them in various ways. I have already explained why miraculous and magical event cannot take place in this world the way people at large think due to their lack of purpose based proper knowledge about things. This is why our laughing at the Quran by taking it as a joke exposes our own ignorance and foolishness or stupidity at most and by burning the Quran we are throwing our own future into the hell of our own making by our own hands.
I am a student of quran and islam and not an exmuslim.
