                                                           Our General Situation

It is a known fact that the Creator created every being in the Multiverses for a purpose. The Creator may have programmed each universe as different code sequences, and therefore, the nature of the universes may have been different from each other. However, if the innate characteristics that the universes possessed when they were first created have certain unchangeable limits, are miracles and wonders a deficiency of this software, or are they concepts assigned a specific time in the beginning by the Lord, who possesses eternal knowledge, but which we name as punishments or rewards our Lord grants based on an interaction?

When we evaluate this through the identity of the Lord depicted in the Quran, it is seen that the idea that our Lord gets angry at earthly changes and inflicts disasters, or appreciates and rewards them, actually does not align with reality. Therefore, we can say that the truth of the matter is that our Lord meticulously coded everything at the beginning and created the Multiverses, which consist of lines of code.

Now we come to the question of what the author's purpose was in stating this. In summary, we can clearly make this deduction: No event seen on Earth actually occurs as a result of the Creator's intervention in the lines of code; that is, as can be understood from this, the fates of all of us have been predetermined since the very first creation. Another deduction becomes possible from here: "The Creator is so magnificent that even the things that can be considered most important to us do not change our Lord's thought."

The result that this final deduction leads us to is how valuable we humans are in the eyes of the Creator; so much so that despite having such magnificence, our Lord has emphasized how much importance He gives to humans in the Quran at every opportunity. For example, when the angels said, "O Lord, while we are mentioning Ar-Rahman (the Merciful), are You going to create a community that will cause mischief on Earth, whereas we only praise You and seek help from You?", He said to them, "I know what you do not know," thus making humans superior to the worlds, and He created Adam and Eve.

Furthermore, while such importance is given to we humans in the Quran, it is clear that our Lord did not say this as any kind of jest. It is truly deserving of punishment for a being given so much importance not to obey Allah's commands, and that is why the punishment of Hell has also become a punishment that can be given to humans. In this context, even Iblis's refusal to accept that humans are superior to him can be evaluated. Therefore, it is very objectionable not to attribute value to humans, whom the Creator has made superior to all worlds.

Moreover, harming humans draws the greatest punishment, and that is why human rights are important. Most people have heard that Hz. Umar was an icon of justice who gave great importance to human rights. However, it is critical to interpret this correctly. He prioritized justice so much by following the Sunnah of our Prophet (PBUH). So, what is the most important point of justice in our Prophet's Sunnah? It is to respect human rights.

Some circles develop an approach that says, "Since jihad can be done for Islam, then Islam is chaos." But when we say that jihad is done only against people who drag society into chaos, they say, "These are standard bundles of information; things do not work that way in practice."

Actually, if people could practice Islam with the morality of the Quran, it would be seen that this is reduced to a minimum, but certain interpretations distance the religion from its essence. Today, Muslims, mostly unable to share the state of being the correct representative of Islam, display a very aggressive attitude towards each other; but this has nothing to do with the commands of the religion. The religion recommends reading, learning, and contemplating.

That is, we cannot fully represent Islam, and Islam is looking for new representatives for itself. At the end of the day, Islam finds its own path, but to take part in this distinction is in our hands. Please, let us act in accordance with the "Read!" verse. Let those who have opposing views on this issue state them in the comments so that a debate environment is formed.
