What the Koran Said Finally
The last chapters of the Koran are so impressive:
113. Dawn - Al-FalaqIn the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.113:1 Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of the dawn,113:2 From the evil of what He has created,113:3 And from the evil of the utterly dark night when it comes,113:4 And from the evil of those who blow on knots,113:5 And from the evil of the envious when he envies
What it implies is so simple that there are only three players in this world and in one's life: God, the man himself, and Satan.114. Mankind - An-NasIn the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.114:1 Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of men,114:2 The King of men,114:3 The God of men,114:4 From the evil of the whisperings of the slinking (Shaitan),114:5 Who whispers into the hearts of men,114:6 From among the jinn and the men.
The world and one's life are a stage of battle between good and evil. Satan uses any elements of this world and a human life for his attack on a man, including happiness, dreams, hope, ambitions, money, etc. And it is very difficult for a man just to concentrate on this battle, discarding his love for money and worldly success and happiness.
Even man's wish to rely on a great religion can be a trap set by Satan.
That should be why Christ Jesus never declared that he established a new religion. He only said that He is the only way that guides people to Heaven. Faith in Christ Jesus alone cannot be a religion. It is because you will deny anything, including churches and rituals, except Christ Jesus Himself if you believe in Him.
Anyway to live a life without being damaged by Satan is so difficult. And it seems that the Koran was established as a mean to fight and win Satan, since Satan seems to be the most important theme in parallel with mankind and God in the Koran.
But it is a surprise that Islam was endowed mankind with 600 years after the first emergence of Christ Jesus, while Christ Jesus had already declared that He had won this world with full of devils.
