Accepting Allah’s Scheme Of Examination When Your Rationale And Intuition Don’t
Scheme of tests and trials is secondary to belief in God. If one has professed belief in God based on arguments which are not interconnected with scheme of tests and trials, then it is God who tells us about his scheme in this world. It is a possiblity that one may diasgree with the scheme that may be a better scheme could’ve been deployed, but does this weaken the logical ground on which faith in God was established? So if one has true faith in God ( after logically concluding all the arguments ) then best approach would be to accept the realities of the matter and act accordingly; which in this case is the scheme of tests and trials at play as a measure to select pure souls for the hereafter. There’s no harm in questions arising inside one’s mind, but we should be cognizant of the fact that which questions are relevant to our success and can be answered in this world, and which questions cannot be answered in this world. For the latter part, the best approach is to defer them until the time is right to ask such questions. Right now, our fate hangs in the balance depending upon our faith and our deeds, for which all the relevant information has been made available to us.
