    Is there intelligent and sentient life in this universe beyond our planet??

    I wonder about this a lot because i have no evidence that there IS.. but i really don't see how it's possible that there ISN'T.

    And if there is, how are we to treat them?? Are they equals on account of their sentience?? Are they subject to the various beliefs that we hold??

    I need help with this paradox people

    This universe is sooooooo big that we even can't imagine it. It's beyond the imagination of mankind at least till now. God has given the knowledge to human being but He says that it's limited. I don't remember the Ayat Kareema but I remember that Allah says that we know whatever HE has allowed us to know. We can't know beyond that limit.
    I do believe that intelligent life exists in our universe other than on the earth but it may not be more intelligent than human beings on earth as Allah sent HIS most beloved prophet Muhammad (SAWW) on this earth.
    So I beleive that life can't be more intelligent than in the earth but it should exist somewhere in the universe.
    I hope you know about quantum theory which is a study of particles. It says that these particles can move around us without the limitations of space and time.
    We are bound to obey the laws of space and time. Till now mankind's knowledge is very limited and to search any intelligent life in other planets we still don't have the equipments. Also the huge distance between the stars is a matter of concern.
    May be within the next 20 years we are able to find the life whether intelligent or not on some other planet.

    Quran has many references to heavens and earth like this:

    FI SSMAWAT I WAL ARZ

    When He mentions sky, He uses plural and when He mentions land he uses singular!

    I heard someone say that skies may be more but land where people can live is one only!!!!

    Wallahu Aalamu

  4. After evaluating, how big is the Universe, I guess there should be intelligent life somewhere.

    The size of our galaxy, the milkyway alone is 100,000 light years.The speed of light(186,000 miles/sec) is the highest speed known to us as of yet.

    They have been looking for ET using radio signals.I believe they have to devise some other model if we are ever to find intelligent life on other planets.

    Jins, Bhoots, Churails.. all are hallucinations or mental illnesses. There's no such thing.

    @ Lal Bichoo,

    As for Bhoots and churails; they are as fictious as vampires. Jins as per my opinion do exist but NOT in the format or appearance as we Pakistanis (or people of the subcontinent) believe. There's a very famous person called Saabri in Oman who specializes in exorcisms. Ive met him personally. According to him Jins are like a supernatural disease which cause weird hallucinations and symptoms in the sick. I sort of agree with him because I have seen people do stuff when they are possessed which would be termed highly unnatural and unhumanly.

    To make a long story short, Jins in my view are a Supernatural Viral Disease.

    Belief in angels is a Zoroastrian belief. The pagan Arabs before Islam believed in jinn’s and afriyat. All these previous beliefs influenced Islamic beliefs.

  33. Assalam-o-Alaikum-Warahmat-ULLAH ALL,

    Jews/Zionists and their agents, are trying their best to convince people of this world that;

    (1) aliens exist
    (2) aliens are hostile
    (3) we need to build military outposts in space because of it

    The real agenda, they have is, they want to control what happens on earth by having military bases outside Earth, through which they can threaten anyone, through which they can yet again impose their hegemony over others, around the globe.

    After the nuclear threat from the west was neutralized when Pakistan acquired nuclear weapons, now the west is moving the competition to the next level i.e., outer space.

    Having military, as well as military base in Space is the same ultimate achievement, as the west had when it first built nuclear weapons. No one could stand in-front of its hegemony after that.

    It is a grave threat to Muslims, as well as ALL the people of this world.

    @ Haris

    Leaving aside the conspiracy, do you belive aliens exist?

    @ everybody

    I have a theory about jinns. It's odd, but it made the Quran all the more relevant to me.

    I believe that the references to Jinns is actually a reference to germs and bacteria. Here's why

    Jinns are described as being invisible to the human eye. That's true for bacteria and viruses too of course

    Jinns are described as both "good" and "bad". Some bacteria are beneficial to the human organism and some are detrimental. Penecillian is bacteria, our digestive systems contain bacteria for the digestive process and some bacteria actively combat other things harmful to the human body. Likewise in the case of vira, the cowpox wirus is what protects humans from smallpox.

    There are of course also the "bad" jinns like cholera, typhoid, influenze and anything else that makes people sick.

    Jinns are described as being "made of fire". When a person gets sick from infection they get fevers. So it wouldn't be incorrect to say they are made of fire.

    And i also think of the ayah that muslims are supposed to read when they enter the washroom to the effect "allah, protect me from the Jinns within". Seems perfectly reasonable to ask to protection against germs and bacteria in a place that is packed full of them no?

    To people 1400 years ago it would be difficult to explain what germs and bacteria were without resorting to parables and metaphors. As mankind's knowledge increases they have to decipher and understand these metaphors to realize their true meaning.

    I think the Jinn are a perfect example of how an updated understanding of Quranic verses make it a contemporary and current text, without invalidating or contradicting it. I mean this is the best way for us to get the full benefit of the wisdom held within it.
