00:00Some people may say, that why there should be only one God?
00:05Why can't there be many Gods?
00:08If there would have been many Gods, surely these Gods would have fought among themselves.
00:14And we find this in the mythology of some of the religions.
00:18One God fighting with the other God.
00:20One God helping the other God to fight the third God.
00:24Can you believe in such a God who can be defeated, who can be killed?
00:28And some people say, that why can't there be different Gods?
00:31One God for sun, one God for cloud, one God for wind.
00:35Now imagine if there was one God for each, each one having power over his own little
00:41thing.
00:42It's logical to have one God who has power over all things, rather than each different
00:47different God fighting among themselves.
00:49It's illogical.
00:52That is the reason the Quran says, in Surah Anbiya, chapter number 21, verse number 22,
00:57that if there would have been Gods besides Allah, surely there would have been confusion
01:03in the universe.
01:04It's mentioned in Surah Mu'minun, chapter number 23, verse number 91, that Allah Subhanahu
01:10Ta'ala does not beget a son.
01:11If there were a God besides Allah, each God would have taken things that were created
01:16and hold it on the other.
01:18Surely there would have been infighting amongst them.
01:20That's what we see in the mythology.
01:22The best and the most logical is only one God.
01:25One and only, all-powerful, having power over all things.
01:30That is the reason, if you read the scriptures of the major world religions, all the scriptures
01:36of the major world religions, they say that Almighty God is one.
01:41They've got no images, he's not begotten, he's one and only, absolute and eternal, nothing
01:48like him.
01:50And by the passage of time, many of the scriptures, almost all besides the Quran, these scriptures
01:58have changed.
01:59Allah says in the Quran in Surah Baqarah, chapter number 2, verse number 79,
02:13that woe to those who write the book with their own hands and then say this is from
02:16Allah, to traffic with it for a miserable price.
02:18Woe to those for what they earn, woe to those for what they write.
02:23So here it's mentioned in the Quran that people write the scripture with their own hands and
02:27then say this is from Allah.
02:29So by the passage of time, all the scriptures that came before the Quran, they have been
02:34changed.
02:36And since they were not the last and final revelation, Almighty God did not think it
02:40fit to be preserved because those were the previous revelations.
02:45But in spite of this corruption, in spite of the manipulation, in spite of the change,
02:51yet in the remnants of all the major world religions, in their scriptures, you will find
02:58the mention of monotheism, the oneness of Almighty God, that he has got no images, he's
03:03not begotten, he's one and only, there's nothing like him.
03:07So if you believe in a concept of God, it should be according to your scriptures.
03:15There are some religions which are agnostic.
03:19You may not call them religions, like Buddhism, they don't comment on God, they are silent
03:25as far as God is concerned.
03:26And many ethical systems which I mentioned earlier, like Confucianism, Taoism, they are
03:30more of ethical systems than having a concept of God.
03:34And as far as the people who are atheists, like Jainism, etc., to those who are agnostic
03:41and atheist, they can refer to my videocassette, It's the Quran God's Word, and I gave that
03:48earlier also, as well as recently in Bombay a couple of months back, on the 24th of November,
03:56on the second day of the peace exhibition in Bombay, the Solution to Humanity, It's
04:01the Quran God's Word.
04:02If they see this cassette or the talk, inshallah if the human being is unbiased, with the help
04:09of the Quran, I've proved the existence of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
