Human Consciousness: Quranic Wisdom vs. Modern Philosophy | Surah Al-Qiyamah | Nouman Ali Khan

In this snippet from the Surah Al-Qiyamah: A Deeper Look series, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan explores the philosophical and theological roots of human ideals, contrasting the views of thinkers like Freud, Adler and Marx with the Quranic perspective. He highlights that while modern thoughts often tie human consciousness and ideals to purely scientific or material origins, the Quran asserts that true higher ideals stem from a spiritual source beyond the physical realm. This reflection invites us to rethink where our values come from and how they shape our understanding of purpose and meaning in life.

I must say, This video is the most amazing thing I have ever watched. I studied Freud, Karl Marx and Modern Physics in my secular education but I have never seen anybody connect them directly to the Islamic understandings of the Day of Judgement. Mashallah Tabarakallah.

[@wajeehaansari415]

So so true .

[@Kveldred]

well, then you should be aware that relativity *doesn't* say energy can disappear; neither does quantum physics. he's probably talking about _useful_ energy-i.e., the progress of entropy-in the first part; in the latter instance, he's talking about the famous indeterminacy/probabilistic focus of quantum physics-of which some (notably, Bohm and to some extent Heisenberg & Penrose... and apparently Planck, which admittedly I wasn't aware of) physicists believe consciousness plays a role, but of which others (notably Schrödinger, Dirac, Bohr, and most modern physicists) do not. NAK is correct that the problem of consciousness is one of the most vexing issues in all of science, though, and we have not even sketched the first draft of a guess at a shadow of a solution. he's incorrect in interpreting Planck as saying consciousness is involved as in _design_ - that's not what any quantum physicists take from wave-function collapse, to my knowledge, except Bohm - but, perhaps surprisingly to some, the bit about some modern physicists believing that even electrons have a form of consciousness is true. for the interested, look up "Integrated Information Theory".

[@yearnfortruth7509]

MashaAllah my brother. Great video. Hold fast onto the rope of your Creator, you are the most fortunate to be a Muslim. Why is modern physics a one eyed donkey? Because it starts at 1001 cause (lie) and then builds a house on top of it (a sick form of truth, logical but one-eyed at best). And then the bright Harvard student (sick, because it is not bright, it is the dumbest if it knew, because it can only see within the tunnel it has dug itself) pats itself to have built the marvelous 1002 cause. True Physics is in Quran should Muslim want to remember its own forgotten knowledge. True science, human intellect stopped when Islamic science was stopped by kafir and its ally Muslim itself. But Allah SWT's provides us all tools. Only Muslim can correct the physics of today. For one, to rude awakening of Muslim, Kafir has tied the 1st cause of physics to shaitan. The 2nd cause to the harmless deities (millions of them). Allah leads those astray that wish to be led astray. While Kafir plans, but the biggest planner is Allah SWT. When the false 1000 "assumptions" of kafir falls, then what? But you are a Muslim? Are you not? Human is glad to delve within the grand tunnel of ignorance to fancy its ego only. But are we donkey? What are you waiting for? Glorifying only Karl Marx, or Planck the Necromancer? Muslim get your bearings. Ignoring the ignorance of false assumptions of the entire, each and every so called sick science? sick are we/I that ignore this. Kafir mocked Muslim, Islam for 500 years now. Can you not mock the one-eyed "western" science? one that is powered by golems, which are powered by the donkey human itself, trillion volts soul electricity? you manifest it happily, can you not un-manifest it? Are we this pathetic? Woe be to the kafir and its allies. That said my dear brother, I love you all more than myself. I am angry at myself, not you my dear Muslim.

[@Sunflowersarepretty]

Love the humility from Ustadh when literally he's one of the best speakers, thinkers and teachers. I never feel bored listening to him 😂 nor do i feel sleepy. May Allah give him a long life so he could keep benefitting us and gain rewards. Also may Allah protect his reputation too.

[@smc4steptrading]

I truly enjoyed this episode. It aligns with an understanding I had a few months ago about everything being a witness. I was reflecting on content surrounding AI and its connection to consciousness. I came across discussions about whether AI could be considered sentient, and it led me to realize that "sentient" essentially refers to "consciousness." I then began to ponder, based on my observation of the world and my limited understanding of the Quran, that consciousness is inherently tied to purpose. Everything Allah has created, from the atoms and molecules to the birds, clouds, and skies, has a purpose. Therefore, everything possesses consciousness in its own way. It's not the lack of evidence that leads people to disbelieve in Allah; it's an injustice they commit against themselves. They choose to deny Allah's existence, despite the overwhelming signs of creation all around them. This reminds me of the verse in the Quran where Allah says He does not guide those who are unjust. If people were just, they would realize that Allah is real and the Creator of everything. It's ironic how people deny the unseen when we experience unseen things like the wind daily. Could you imagine if people suddenly said they don't believe in the wind, even though we feel its breeze constantly? The truth is undeniable when we open our hearts to reflect on it.

[@turniphead7210]

yes 💯

[@SpeakWithQuran]

The only unique personality in Islam Ustad Nouman ❤ who connect Deen with Duniya, life here and hereafter. I was taughty whole life that studying Science is life opposite to studying Islam, when i listened to Ustad I understand that even studying science or anything else comes under Islam.

Subhan Allah ustadh ... I just recently studied the synopse "The Manifesto of Islam" by Dr Muhammad Rafiuddin, of this book "The Ideology of Future"from a teacher till page 88 . He wasn't allowing me to teach it further and he also wasn't allowing us the whole class, to study "The Ideology of Future".... But today, since my Ustadh NAK has given us a homework to study and read this book "The Ideology of the Future" by Dr Muhammad Rafiuddin, so I will read it inShaAllah I'm so blessed and satisfied to have you Ustadh, in my life May Allah bless you in both realms Ameen sum Ameen 😊

[@tahsinmohammadrakin7562]

A teacher told you to read that book partially? Where do you study?

[@Maha_vali]

This is like an eid for my brain. Wow. Allah razı olsun. May Allah put endless barakah in your work in this duniya and akhirah

[@oh21farah]

MashaAllah I'm mindblown. Ustadh's explanation is very good and easy to understand. I've personally sorta have these unable-to-grasp thoughts about the universe and trying to make sense the purpose of our existence, even as a born Muslim myself. So ustadh's explanation here really helped a lot in me understanding myself and my religion. And I'm again amazed by how great our Creator is ❤

[@amna-v9o]

The best thing I have ever heard to date. Ustadh, I humbly request that you upload the entire series. May Allah (SWT) increase your reward.

Ustad i must say you nailed it (in very respectful manner) literally everything does make sense. No doubt you do connect my field of sociology with Islam.

*Ibadah doesn’t have to be just about prayers or zikr etc. You can turn everyday tasks into acts of worship by having good intentions. For example,if you work hard to make money with the intention of using that wealth to build a mosque or support a charitable cause, or studying hard to bring joy to your parents, can turn these ordinary tasks a form of worship. By thinking positively and acting with good intentions, you can make every moment of your worldly work count as a reward*

I can fully understand the trauma and pain felt by those who lost their children and/or other loved ones in Palestine! I can feel their pain! Moreover, the treatment I received from my haters (though I have lived like a king) is something similar to that! My haters only tried to make me feel low by ignoring me and trying to act as if they are superior to me, they tried to! I am a blessed soul and I am closer to Allah! I felt bad because I am a person to whom 'respect' matters the most! I always give people honour from my side, even if they are lowly because that's my character! And not showing me honour will but result in 'shame' and regret for those who think they are superior! I will consider you superior only if you worship more than I do! I say, do Laa ilaaha illallah.❤️
