Today, when a person examines this planet, he comes to the same conclusion: no one like me has ever lived in the history of this world. Biology, the branch of science that studies living things, tells us that a human being is biologically and scientifically an animal, with a heart, blood, lungs, skin, from head to toe. The only difference is that he can reason and plan. Fossils and the sciences of evolution also tell us that at least 21 types of humans, including Homo erectus, have lived before us. The famous 3.2 million-year-old girl Lucy, discovered in Ethiopia in 1974, was one of them. Small brain but able to walk upright on two legs.
The last of the humans who have passed before us was the Neanderthal man of Europe, who was alive and well only thirty thousand years ago. The DNA of the Neanderthal has been published by the Max Planck Institute. The difference is that the Sharia was revealed only to Homo sapiens. All these sciences tell man that many came and went before him. In such a situation, reason awakens and warns man to think and walk. Tomorrow, someone will be walking around reading your fate.
Yesterday, the one who came to a head with a broken leg was completely broken and said, "Look, let's walk, unaware!" I was also once a proud person.
Now, I put my hand on my heart and say, from Trump to Putin and Modi to Netanyahu, is there anyone who will listen to this voice? If there was anyone who would listen, would the world powers be fighting like this? Sheikh Hasina learned any lesson from the fate of her father? Did Pakistan learn any lesson from the creation of Bangladesh? Why don't humans learn lessons? In the words of Professor Rafiq, when the giants of instincts are in awe, what can the fragile fairy of reason do? How powerful are these instincts? Can anyone explain to a boy who is riding a motorcycle without lifting a wheel? When he thinks that I am a warrior playing with death. The delicate species must be sacrificing itself for my bravery. These boys who perform these tricks are in a kind of intoxication. In the words of my friend Nasir Iftikhar, author of "From Myself to God", the source of any addiction is a person's own mind. The release of various chemicals, which are already present in the brain. Heroin only intensifies it.
Today, man is intoxicated in the same way as the boy who lifted the wheel of the motorcycle was intoxicated. What is man intoxicated with? Answer: Intoxication of his own greatness. Intoxication of his own technology.
This belief has taken hold of man that he is the owner of such greatness, which was not present in anyone before. They are not ready to consider that the greatest human minds die in the same misery as a goat. What kind of greatness is this? They are not ready to consider that this mind was given to them as a gift. If it had been given to a chimpanzee, humans would be locked up in zoos today. It should have been that humans were always reminded of the terrifying reality of death. Now, put your hand on your heart and tell me, does any of Trump, Modi, Netanyahu, and Putin remember death? Not a single one. Not even though they are all old and are rapidly moving towards death. The intensity of instincts, including greed, has driven humans crazy. Like madmen, they are fighting to seize the world's resources. Examples like Abraham Lincoln and Muhammad Ali Jinnah are only exceptions. In human history, the worst people have killed the best people and put them in prison.
The sciences of biology, fossils, and DNA show that in the last three and a half billion years, five billion species of living creatures have disappeared forever on this earth. No matter how arrogant a human being is, he is only one of five billion. He is born, lives, and dies in the same way. Twenty-one of these, including Homo erectus, were species that walked on two legs. Similar to us but different. Take heart, maybe tomorrow we Homo sapiens will also disappear. Then someone new will come, who will observe our fossils. The Quran says: If He wills, He can destroy you and create a new creation. Surah Fatir, 16. What can be said more openly than this.
From Palestine to Ukraine, a madness has gripped man to seize everything. Kill the rest. Leave aside Israel, don't two real brothers in Pakistan fight to the death over property, which could have been divided fairly?
This is the condition of this man, who has the sciences and arts of the whole world. All the fossils are in front of him. In every house in the neighborhood, stories of lessons are being told to him in a loud voice. Man has not been able to learn any lessons even from world wars. This man buries his loved ones day and night with his own hands. All this is happening in front of this man, moment by moment, who is advancing towards old age and death. Yet he is unable to do justice and open his eyes to see this manifestation of God, which is shining in every particle of the universe. That is the reality, the rest of the world is, in the words of the Quran, a tool of deception. Sometimes one wonders, by what name will man be remembered? 'Poor, a victim of emotions?' Oh, alas!
In the final analysis, the message is a somber one: humanity, despite its intellectual and technological advancements, remains enslaved by its most primitive instincts. We are, in a sense, a "victim of emotions"—blinded by our own perceived greatness and unable to learn from the lessons of history, science, or even our own mortality. The essay serves as a powerful reminder that our arrogance is a delusion, and that true wisdom lies in humility and the recognition of our place in the grand, indifferent scheme of the universe. The repeated cycles of conflict, greed, and destruction suggest a species trapped in a perpetual state of self-inflicted misery, unable to break free from the very instincts that define its downfall.
