What does Islam imply about our relationship to the Causative Force?

 

 

Part II of II

 

... Assisting other souls to do likewise, assisting other souls to accomplish their purposes would seem to be an action that would reap positive rewards.

 

It isn’t a case of being idealistic; it is a case of being practical.

 

After all, if one is to face justice for eternity, what justice, “due reward and fair treatment,” would one prefer to face: justice for assisting the Causative Force or justice for interfering with the Causative Force?

 

 

But what of “justice?” Is it not the “infliction of punishment for a wrong committed?”

 

No, justice is a giving process. One receives “due reward” and “fair treatment” depending upon one’s accomplishment of what one was sent to do.

 

This is not punishment; this is simply reaping the fruits of one’s labors.

 

The ideas of a single Causative Force, the soul, eternal life of the soul, elimination of suffering, loving one another, and as we will see, justice, all were taking root upon our earth.

 

But humankind was not exactly humane yet.

 

We still treated each other as property, as a means to self serving goals, as just another way of getting what we wanted.

 

Something still seems to be missing.

 

If the present size of the Causative Force does not allow us to accept other humans different than ourselves, then perhaps it is time to change something more.

 

Perhaps it is time to once more change the size we assign our perceived Causative Force.

What does Islam imply about our relationship to the Causative Force?

 

 

Part I of II

 

Islamic belief in justice being one of the primary elements of eternity implies that life in not only significant but very significant.

 

Why else would justice be a major part of eternity, which in turn is a primary characteristic of the Causative Force?

 

 

But does the Causative Force pass out justice out of vengeance?

 

Vengeance does not appear to be a necessary trait for an all knowing, all powerful, all present entity.

 

Vengeance is usually a trait that applies to “little” entities attempting to display power.

 

Vengeance is defined as “the infliction of punishment in return for a wrong committed.”

 

Attempting to accomplish one’s tasks in life, one’s purpose, is all one can humanly do.

 

A Causative Force expecting more of Her creations is unreasonable, especially for an entity as powerful and knowledgeable as the Causative Force.
