God, Man And Universe: As Conceived by a Mathematician
by Allama Mashriqi edited by Syed Shabbir Hussain.
“Even the most progressive and enlightened
sections of the mankind have not yet realized what really the Knowledge
of Nature implies for a man, and have so far treated it as an
instrument in the hands of the present political-rulers. Since Islam
made a major contribution in giving shape to the world affairs during
the past 1400 years, and much of the transformation of the human
society has taken place through the force and impact of the Programme
brought by the Prophets, man’s future life will inevitably be patterned
on Islam. In my view, the two monstrous powers of Communism and
Democracy will have eventually to turn to this proposition, and the
domination of the one over the other will culminate in the supremacy of
the Knowledge of Nature, an all-embracing world authority, and sway of
the Prophethood so that Man can attain to the last stage of the purpose
of his creation—his face to face meeting with the Creator.” El-Mashriqi
