101 Preface قُلِ انظُروا ماذا فِي السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۚ وَما تُغنِي الآياتُ وَالنُّذُرُ عَن قَومٍ لا يُؤمِنونَYusuf AliSay: “Behold all that is in the heavens and on earth”; but neither Signs nor Warners profit those who believe not.1If Faith results from an active exertion of our spiritual faculties or understanding, it follows that if we let those die, God’s Signs in His Creation or in the spoken Word which comes by inspiration through the mouths of His Messengers will not reach us any more than music reaches a deaf man.
