Islam says, “People are born with innocence but they are taken into world of sins by their surrounding society”. Sins are learned experience which makes people to go away from mercy of ALLAH. Sins block people’s mind to understand the principle concept and philosophy of ALLAH behind the creation of man and devils. Consequently, people used to live in an ocean of sorrow and within everlasting tears. They have senses to only judge their life by now but not the most regrettable things in the future. People believed that the only solutions for miseries of life are money and music, but they are mistaken that ALLAH is the Giver of Life and the Most Responsive to people’s needs. They are Mistaken that ALLAH is The Most Powerful, The Irresistible, The Bestower, The All Knowing, The Most Merciful, The All Praiseworthy , The Lord of Majesty and Generosity, The Wise and The Most Glorious. ↗
