Reconciling Faith, Suffering And Fitrah
I understand the analogy you’ve provided about obeying a government despite objections to its actions. However, what I am trying to convey is that, in this analogy, we may obey the government because we feel helpless, but we don’t necessarily like it or pray to it. So, according to this logic, shouldn’t we be obeying God because He is powerful and we are helpless, but not necessarily liking Him or praying to Him, since we’re merely compelled by His power? If we are only obeying God out of His power, how can we cultivate the desire to love or pray to Him genuinely?
Ok thank you
