We used to hear cabin crew instructions about the importance of taking care of ourselves first and
then our children, that were also in danger during the flight.
These instructions are similar to what the world's priests did when they asked their followers to
resort to the Creator directly and avoid approaching them due to the fear of infection after the
Corona pandemic.
Those who resort to idols in request and worship rushed to sterilize their gods and not approach
them due to the fear of infection.
God said:
If you call upon them, they cannot hear your calls. And if they were to hear, they could not
respond to you. On the Day of Judgment, they will disown your worship ˹of them˺. And no
one can inform you ˹O Prophet˺ like the All-Knowledgeable (Fatir:14).
As if humans are the virus due to their actions, and Corona is the cure.
Until the earth became strait to humans, their souls were also straitened.
God said:
... until the earth became strait to them notwithstanding its spaciousness and their souls
were also straitened to them; and they knew it for certain that there was no refuge from
Allah but in Him; then He turned to them (mercifully) that they might turn (to Him); surely
Allah is the Oft-returning (to mercy), the Merciful (Al-Tawba:113).
The Coronavirus is one of the most powerful divine messages that tell people:
At a specific moment, everyone will turn to the source of his existence (the Creator), willingly or by
force.
No matter how much we rely on each other and strive to make society happy, there will come a day
when we and humanity will not be able to save ourselves. We will feel that we need an absolute
Power, that do not depend on anyone.
This Power is:
The Creator of Buddha, Ram and Krishna, the Creator of monks, saints and priests, the Creator of
the prophets of God, Muhammad, and Christ, may peace be upon them. It is not permissible to
demand from the creations.
