MAN REVIVED DEAD HUMAN BEING AND CREATED AN ARTIFICIAL HUMAN BEING
MAN REVIVED DEAD HUMAN BEING
AND
CREATED AN ARTIFICIAL HUMAN BEING
Divine Power manifests from man in the form of knowledge and wisdom. Therefore, a wise religious person should not be astonished at the inventions and discoveries of this advanced scientific and atomic age. Nor should he harbour any doubt in his heart about the Divine law or consider that such and such work belongs to God only, which none other than He can do, for instance, reviving a dead human being or creating a human being, etc. It is possible that as a result of the effects of the thoughts which are created in the simple-minded, religious people when hearing about such astonishing events that they might feel a kind of weakness within themselves or their nation. If this really happens, it will be an inferiority complex, which they see from afar with great astonishment, or by acquiring knowledge by which they will come to know that behind the veil of every success there is God’s hand.
In the body of every human being with sound senses, the soul works on three levels: in the lowest, the vegetative soul, in the middle the animal soul and in the highest, the rational soul. The centre of the vegetative soul is the liver. It is responsible for the growth of the body and to it belong all those faculties that complete the body of a child in the beginning. The centre of the animal soul is the heart, which is responsible for the senses and movement. The centre of the rational for the senses and movement. The centre of the rational soul is the brain to which belong speech, understanding, knowledge and art. Because these souls reside in the same body, they affect each other. Among them, the rational soul, due to its characteristics and actions, transforms vegetable into animal, animal into human being and human being into angel and enables him to attain union with God. The example of this is found in the creation of the body and in the completion of the soul. All those characteristics of man, which are not found in any animal, belong to the rational soul. Further, it is the rational soul that has refined the faculties of the vegetative and the animal souls in the human body.
The three above-mentioned souls transmit [their] united life in the human body in the order that first of all, a mixed quintessence of human blood (i.e. sperm and ovum) resides in the womb, which contains the essential and material effects of all of them (i.e. the three souls). In other words, the rational and the animal souls exist potentially and the vegetative soul exists in actual form in this drop. Just as in a seed, for example, there is the capacity or potential of growing a tree of its kind, or in a bird’s egg a bird of its kind.
The body is created form a constant flow of a certain quantity of blood into the womb of a woman from her breasts, by which the vegetative soul completes its creation. At the end of four months, the dormant animal soul awakens in the body of the human foetus, for now. Its organs and limbs need some movement, so that the muscles may strengthen and the joints have elasticity to twist and turn. The main reason for the subsistence of the animal soul on the vegetative soul after four months is that during this time the vegetative soul reaches the limit of equilibrium of its nature. That is. Almost the subtlety or the fineness of the animal soul is created in it, due to which the latter receives strength and awakens. It is like a combustible material, which, when it is moist, does not catch fire, but when it is dried on the fire for a while for a while it ignites
The natural equilibrium of the vegetative soul, which cannot be created in a tree or a plant, comes into being through the help of those organs of the human body that were completed for the blood circulatory system. Now, if scientists have come to know about the science and the system according to which the dot of soul or sperm is nurtured in the womb of tis mother and can keep the thing around it intact, in the same way as they are in the natural condition, then the possibility of creating a man by nurturing sperm in a particular machine is certain. But in no way can they dispense with the Divine power in creating a thing. That is, they have succeeded only in nurturing a tiny subtle human being before its time, i.e. they can bring it forth before nine months. This shows that the survival of the animal soul depends on the vegetative soul’s equilibrium and its annihilation or death is caused by its absence. Similarly, the physical survival of the rational soul depends on the equilibrium of the animal soul and its physical annihilation is its absence. The question now arises, on whose equilibrium does the survival of the vegetative soul depend? The answer is that the survival of the vegetative soul depends on the equilibrium of diet in which water, air, etc., are included. If the vegetative soul lacks this equilibrium for any reason, the animal soul swoons and becomes silent for a while, which in turn, cause the rational soul to fall into a dormant state. Now the weakness of these three souls is greater than on the first day they were in the mother’s womb, because that weakness was moving towards perfection by attaining nourishment, whereas now they are vanishing due to the lack of natural heat and breathing etc. at this time the soul, in a real sense, has not yet left the body.
Now, if this dead [like] person is treated appropriately in time, by an injection that provides the substance of the animal soul, or by an effective medicine, which awakens this dormant soul, and all the tree souls attain united strength from each other, then he can be revived. Just as in a machine, the movement of a specific part helps to move other parts and their movement, in turn, helps this part. However, this is possible only if there are still vitamins and organic strength in this dead-like body. Otherwise, it is not possible. In all these matters however, God’s will supreme. The source of whatever man does is that which God prepares.

Flying Saucers or Objects By Any Other Name
Flying Saucers or Objects By Any Other Name
One of the best methods of teaching the realities of things (haqa-iqul-ashya) is to present a reality to the people in a possible example towards which they can pay attention and to begin to introduce it with the name which they have given it, such as atom, flying Saucer, etc., and then make them recognize it by explaining it with proofs and revealing its real name to them.
It is a law of true Islam that if a Muslim does not have the knowledge or the experience of a thing, he should not stop searching for it. For, our ears, eyes and hear, all these organs are accountable. Nowadays there is the problem of a mysterious creature by the name of Flying Saucer about which apparently nothing is mentioned in a religious book. Nothing is known about it except that some people have seen it several times form far and near, flying with extreme rapidity in a small, disc-like aeroplane. According to some reports, it is a creature in human form. Such a creature may indeed be mysterious!
Before venturing to divulge the secret of the reality of this mysterious creature, I have also thought about it consequences, of how dangerous it is to do so before its time and to utter a word without [weighing it on] the right balance and above all to disclose a secret without the approval of the supreme authority (mukhtar-I bartar) of religion. If someone fears such dangerous consequences and has not yet attained the Satisfaction of Verifying his problem by [weighing them] on the balances of realities, then in keeping with “man samata naja(i.e. he who remained silent is saved)”, he should remain silent.
What is the reality of these heavenly creatures and where do they come from?
After the expression of this firm certainty, let us raise the question: “What is the reality of these heavenly creatures and where do they come from?” The answer is that they come from a planet whose inhabitants are those human beings who have passed through the stages of science and art and reached the peak of ascension. You may call them angels, spiritual beings or luminous or atomic human beings, etc. for an angel or a spiritual being does not come into existence from anything other than the human who has attained perfection. The atomic man or the man made of something else was, in the beginning, none other than the same human being. However, the difference is that the former has attained the atomic attire, whereas the latter is still in the terrestrial attire. In the following verse: “That you shall be caused to climb one plane after another plane” (84:19), God, the Wise, Who is the absolute King of the entire universe, not only addresses the atomic or celestial man and the terrestrial man, that the former should come down and the latter should go up, but also issues the command concerning the ascent and descent of all planets, in fact the entire universe. For, in the universal kingdom of the absolute and matchless King, the same one law is applicable to the part and the whole.
Further, it also means that you will be transformed from one state into another state, both of which mean the same thing. According to the Qur’anic description, the meaning of man’s Transformation from one state into another state is that man passes from the stages of earth, vegetable, sperm, clot (of congealed blood), lump (of flesh), bones and flesh and reaches the present state (23:12-14). If human nature changes due to diet or any other wisdom, there should not be any surprise, because he has come to this by already being created and transformed from many things. If man will be able to attain the atomic or spiritual food and eat it, then certainly he will be liberated from the force of natural gravity. That is, a nourishment which does not contain wetness, dryness, hear and cold. It is only though such an atomic or spiritual diet that the human being can be liberated from the pull of the planet earth and be saved from physical death. For, Physical death occurs due to the deterioration of the temperament. That is, the physical death of man occurs due to the discord and disunity of the four adversaries i.e. four elements.
where do they come from?
Now let us deal with the second question: “[where do they come from] and what they search for, flying around our planet?” The answer to this question is also not too difficult, for in the holy and last Book of God there are answers to all those questions, which we face now or will face in the future. God says: “We indeed created man in the best of stature, then We sent him back to the lowest of the low” (95:4-5). In this verse also, there is a universal command for all human beings, in which God says that man is created in the best stature, raised to the peak of the ascension of life and then he is brought back to the lowest of the low.If it is accepted that this act of God has happened to both the luminous and terrestrial kinds of human beings, its result is that contrary to the present state, the former was brought to the lowest of the low form the highest of the high, and the latter to the highest of the high from the lowest of the low. For neither has the excellence of temporal priority over the other and the act of creating in the best of stature and bringing to the lowest of the low has been accomplished on both of them without any discrimination. However, regarding the luminous and earthly man, it is not necessary to conceive that in this infinite descent and ascent of human life their alternation should remain only between two planets.
What do they search for?
Now, as for the question: “What do they search for?” it is the law of nature of Divine Will the progress of everything should decline after reaching the peak of perfection and rise again towards perfection after reaching the nadir of decline. It is the same unchangeable Divine law or habit, according to which He will continue to create everything from its opposite. As the Qur’an testifies that life and death, night and day, etc., which are opposite to one another, are created from on another (3:190). These two different states, whether we consider them to be spirituality and corporeality, or life and death or this world and the next world, in any case, it will not be against the balance of justice and far from equity, to prefer on of them over the other. As God, the just prohibiting to do so, says: “And establish the weight (of realities) with justice, and skimp not in the balance” (55:9). For instance, for a sound mind it would be commendable to hold that this world is as important as the next world, because it is this world that is the farm for the next, without sowing something here, what can be reaped there? (Hadith) if there is an injunction that minimizes the importance of this world, it should be known that such an injunction is applicable to the states of those people whose goal is only this world and who have become heedless of the next. For, this world is not totally evil, nor is the next world totally good. As there are good and evil in this world, so there are reward and punishment in the next. Good and evil of this world and reward and punishment of the next depend on the actions of people.
Thus, whatever is said about this world and the next, it is said with respect to the actions of people. For instance, this world or dunya means “near” and the next world or akhirat mean “far”. These two names do not denote the two parts of the universe by which we may understand that from here to here is this world and from there to there is the next world. Rather, they denote the present and the future state of humankind.
If luminous men are going to come down to this earth, form such a planet which due to the perfection of creation and prosperity has become the supreme paradise, then it would not be an injustice to them to bring them down here. For, in the ta’yid (help) of God, it is knowledge and art and creation and construction that are the paradise of pleasures (and nothing else). That is, real happiness is in actions, not in seeing something devoid of them. Thus, if such luminous men or spiritual beings come to this world to make it a paradise, not only will they have the happiness of its construction and creation, but the people of this world, too, will be happy. For the luminous men will dwell in them as their souls. Thus they come to this world in search of its creation and construction.
