Human Beings Are Like The Earth

by | Mar 17, 2020 | Featured, Quranic Reflections

“[So mention] when your Lord said to the angels, “Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay.” (38:71)

Shaykh Abdallah mentioned here that since people are created from the earth they not only resemble the earth in their various colours but also in their varying capacities to accept the truth.

Just as some soil is so barren it won't benefit the rain, some hearts are so dry and lifeless that they cannot accept the truth, where as others resemble fertile ground, eagerly and humbly awaiting to receive.
