Chapter Five: Devil's <strong>Deception</strong> in Matters of Creed (al- aqti'id) and Religion<br />

of this, so we believe in both physical and spiritual fortune and misfortune.<br />

As for your claim that facts were in fact metaphors, there is no<br />

proof for this. If they say: bodies disintegrate and transform. We<br />

reply: Nothing stands in front of (Allah's) Ability.<br />

Also, a human will always remain human. If he were given a body<br />

made from clay other than the clay from which he was created, he<br />

would still be the same person. Just as his body parts change as he<br />

grows, and as he gains or looses weight. If they say: the body only<br />

becomes a body because of the meat and veins. We respond: Allah's<br />

Ability does not stop at what we see, and our Prophet(?i) informed<br />

us that bodies would grow in the graves right before resurrection.<br />

93) Abu Hurayrah (rat#JAlltihu 'anhu) said: 'Allah's Messenger (?i)<br />

said: "Between the two blows (of the horn) there will be forty?<br />

<strong>The</strong>y asked: Forty days?' He said: 'I refuse (to answer).' <strong>The</strong>y<br />

said: 'Forty months?' He replied: 'I refuse.' <strong>The</strong>y said: 'Forty<br />

years?' He replied: 'I refuse.' <strong>The</strong>n Allah will bring water down<br />

from the heavens so people will grow just like legume. Everything<br />

in the human dissolves except for the lower back bone,<br />

from it the human will be reconstructed onJudgment Day."94<br />

lbl:is has deceived groups of Muslims <strong>by</strong> creeping to them through<br />

their high intelligence! He made them think that the right thing is to<br />

follow Philosophers because they claimed to be wise men who had<br />

sayings and actions that demonstrated high intelligence. Socrates,<br />
