The Creation Plan of God
The Creation Plan of God
~ 15 ~
Looked at in terms of the ideal society, the history
of Islam would appear to have its darker, negative
side. But if seen in terms of the development of
individuals, this same history would appear to have
a very positive, bright side. The ideal society or the
ideal state may not have come into being but,
throughout Islamic history, there has never been
any dearth of individuals of great moral and
spiritual calibre. Indeed, the annals of history may
have little to show in terms of ideal societies, but
their pages have been made resplendent with the
thoughts, words and deeds of ideal individuals.
