Zaman aur Makan - Time and Space - Dr Israr Ahmad
Dr. Israr Ahmad explains the concept of time (zaman) and space (makan) as presented in the Quran, particularly focusing on the verses containing oaths. He clarifies the difference between ‘dahr’ (eternity/the expanse of time and space) and ‘asr’ (passing time/era). He draws parallels with Einstein’s theory of relativity, stating that time is the fourth dimension of space. The lecture emphasizes the fleeting nature of life and the importance of being mindful of the passage of time, urging listeners to recognize that every moment brings them closer to death. He highlights the Quranic verses where Allah swears by the sun, moon, and other creations, emphasizing the concept of witnessing and testimony. The lecture connects these concepts to the urgency of preparing for the afterlife.
