The errors of Reincarnation and Karma

Q: Why is the belief in karma considered a social danger?

Karma promotes the idea that suffering or poverty is a deserved punishment for past deeds. This false belief discourages compassion and social aid, which are core moral values in Islam, and has historically supported unjust systems like the caste system.

Q: How does Islam explain human life in relation to the afterlife?

Human life is a single, specific period of time created by Allah as a test. After death, there is no return to this world; rather, there is only the transition to the eternal life of the hereafter where every individual will account for their deeds.

Q: What is the logical flaw in the concept of karma?

The philosophy of karma fails to identify who acts as the judge to determine the circumstances of a new life or how this process functions without a divine creator. It relies on a mechanism of punishment that lacks any rational or verifiable basis.

Q: How should society respond to the weak and needy according to Islamic values?

In the view of faith, weaknesses and poverty are not crimes or results of past lives but are part of a divine test for everyone. Those who have the means are responsible for helping the needy, which establishes true social justice and compassion.

Q: What does the Qur'an teach about the number of deaths a person experiences?

The Qur'an states that a human being will experience only one death after their life in this world concludes. The notion of returning to Earth multiple times through reincarnation is rejected in favor of the truth of a single earthly life and one resurrection.
