Harun Yahya representatives’ lecture at the Chabad Jewish Center, New York

Q: Why is the study of Allah's artistry in creation vital for believers?

Understanding the complex design in the micro and macro worlds reveals the power and greatness of Allah. This realization fosters humility and allows individuals to feel deeper compassion, which is a necessary step toward grasping the true spirit of the Quran.

Q: How does the Quran view the act of killing an innocent person?

The Quran strictly forbids radicalism and extremism. It equates the killing of a single innocent person to the killing of all humanity, marking it as one of the most grievous sins possible.

Q: Why is academic knowledge of religion insufficient for a believer?

Merely analyzing the roots of words or linguistic structures does not replace the necessity of feeling religion in one's heart. Being truly close to Allah requires love and a spiritual connection that transcends intellectual exercises.

Q: What is the relationship between understanding creation and overcoming hatred?

Those who propagate hatred often lack an awareness of Allah and the reality of His art of creation. By providing scientific explanations and teaching the truth of creation, individuals can fill the gap of love in their hearts, leading them away from hatred toward peace.
