Soul in Quran Al Karim
[edit]55:29 يَسْـَٔلُهُۥ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فِى شَأْنٍۢ ٢٩
All those in the heavens and the earth are dependent on Him. Day in and day out He has something to bring about. It means Allah create a new creation everyday. But human soul is advanced and it is direct from God. “Islamic doctrine goes farther than the other great religions for it proclaims the presence of the soul, perhaps minute but nevertheless existing in an embryonic state in all existence in matter, in animals, trees, and space itself. Every individual,every molecule, every atom has its own spiritual relationship with the All-Powerful Soul of God. But men and women, being more highly developed, are immensely more advanced than the infinite number of other beings known to us. Islam acknowledges the existence of angels, of great souls who have developed themselves to the highest possible planes of the human soul and higher, and who are centres of the forces which are scattered throughout the Universe.” (Quoted in “The Memoirs of Aga Khan – World Enough and Time”, p. 177, Cassell and Company Ltd., London, 1954)
