Why Would Anyone, In Their Right Mind, Commit Kufr?
“Principle is that we have free will so we can do wrong knowingly that it’s wrong.” This principle works for junk food example and for what I agree, it doesn’t, however, work for poison example because that example symbolizes the heart of the original question. It’s not a solution to the problem I’m highlighting as far as I understand. “A reason that’s larger than life (atleast to him) and because he has the free will.” Again I ask, what reason does Iblis has that is larger than life, larger than staying loyal to Allah? “Does Iblees sounds sane or insane?” Challenging Allah knowingly is insanity. That is the assumption in focus. So yes, he sounds insane to think that his superiority argument is going to do anything against Allah, who has an answer to everything, including Iblis’ nonsensical argument. Iblis will burn in Hell and he did this to himself on purpose, just like drinking poison. For what larger than life reason? “I am sure u can not find the word stubborn in literature in the meaning u described” You don’t need to. Just that the meaning you did find in literature doesn’t negate the one I’m offering. And honestly stubborn definition doesn’t fix the issue, it’s what course of action Iblis took, knowing well the consequence (eternal Hell) of said action. Saying it is to be stubborn, arrogant etc, seems to simply switch the goal post but the same problem still remains it seems, because you are explaining the mechanics of denial but still not as to why one choose such an ultimate self-destructive course of action. “ That murderer would be insane/imbecile to think he can getaway only if he deny it long enough. He knows he can’t win. “ Can you elaborate, it seems you are agreeing with me on one being insane if he chooses to be stubborn against an inevitable failure? “Quran mentions that Kuffar will do the same denial business on judgment day.” Isn’t that not out of desperation and hence it will not taken seriously? Unless you are saying that kafir will genuinely think that their denial on Judgment Day can save them then Iblis argument can be applied on them that they are insane?
“Why would anyone reject the truth, why would anyone pick a fight with an Almighty being that is declaring 100% chance of eternal punishment” ﷽ 1. i want to ask a simple question to questioner.. What do you think about guidance? is it something which means conclusion of some xyz topic? what you think is it something Objective that truly and really exist in every Human?. If your answers are in negative, then listen,,, anything which doesn’t exist but you feel it as sign(ayah) in yourself is sent by God,….. or by angels or by shayatan or by humans, but they all do by permission of God. and you yourself is human too, so count yourself by yourself in it too. let’s talk about guidance, Guidance is always sent by God, قُلْ هَلْ مِن شُرَكَآئِكُم مَّن يَهْدِىٓ إِلَى ٱلْحَقِّ ۚ قُلِ ٱللَّهُ يَهْدِى لِلْحَقِّ ۗ أَفَمَن يَهْدِىٓ إِلَى ٱلْحَقِّ أَحَقُّ أَن يُتَّبَعَ أَمَّن لَّا يَهِدِّىٓ إِلَّآ أَن يُهْدَىٰ ۖ فَمَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ Say, “Are there of your ‘partners’ any who guides to the truth?” Say, “God guides to the truth. So is He who guides to the truth more worthy to be followed or he who guides not unless he is guided? Then what is [wrong] with you – how do you judge?” -Quran 10:35 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now coming to your question. Nor any disbeliever in God thinks to fight with God, nor God punishes anyone because he caught any traitor. كَمَثَلِ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ إِذْ قَالَ لِلْإِنسَـٰنِ ٱكْفُرْ فَلَمَّا كَفَرَ قَالَ إِنِّى بَرِىٓءٌ مِّنكَ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَ رَبَّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ Their parable is that of Satan when he says to man: “Disbelieve,” but when he disbelieves, he says: “I am quit of you. Verily I fear God, the Lord of the Universe.” -Quran 59:16 يَوْمَ يَغْشَىٰهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِهِمْ وَيَقُولُ ذُوقُوا۟ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ On the Day the punishment will cover them from above them and from below their feet and it is said, “ Taste [the result of] what you used to do. “ -Quran 29:55 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ some questions for you to think about!!!, what if some rapist have guidance then will he commit rape? so why a rapist don’t receive guidance form God? (well, i would answer rest of part of my answer tomorrow (if God wills) i gotta go right now.. until then read Quran from Surah maryam’s 75th Ayah ) Salam..
