... What was God thinking...?

.

.

.

There is so much blood laid to waste…

… So many screams, explicit and implicit…

Every corner you turn, every time you switch the television on, someone is being murdered, or murdering, or on the verge...

Was man created for violence?

Is aggression SO innate that we see nothing else?

… What was God thinking when He created us?



This:

“It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.

Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not."

And He taught Adam the names of all things; then He placed them before the angels, and said: "Tell me the names of these if ye are right."

They said: "Glory to Thee, of knowledge, We have none, save what Thou Hast taught us: In truth it is Thou Who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom."

He said: "O Adam! Tell them their names." When he had told them, Allah said: "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of heaven and earth, and I know what ye reveal and what ye conceal?"

... God wanted to teach... and for us to learn...

.

.

To learn and to teach those who don't know...

.

And for them to learn ... and teach those who don't know...

Quite simple.
