There was once no universe at all

Q: Why is it incorrect to claim that the universe has existed forever?

It is logically impossible for the universe to be eternal because everything in existence, including living beings and inanimate objects, has a specific beginning in time. Just as houses, schools, and people have a starting point, the universe also required a moment of creation.

Q: What does the existence of the universe prove?

The fact that the universe had a beginning proves that there is an Almighty Creator. It demonstrates that all existence was brought into being from nothing by the power of God.

Q: How does this video frame Allah's artistry in creation?

Allah's artistry in creation is shown through the deliberate and perfect manner in which the entire universe was brought into existence. This perspective encourages believers to recognize the power and intellect of the Creator in every aspect of the cosmos.

Q: What should be understood about the origins of living and non-living things?

Every entity, whether it is a living creature or a physical object, is brought into existence by Allah. Nothing creates itself, as all things are subject to a specific time of origin determined by the Almighty.
