The One Without a Second
The Upanishads speak of Ekam evadvitiyam — "One alone, without a second." Islam shares this profound truth: God is one, without partner, without form, beyond imagination, yet closer to you than your own heartbeat.
1. Addressing
Fatima:
Peace be upon those who follow the right path.
Meaning: Peace be upon those who follow guidance.
Puja:
Greetings.
Fatima:
How are you, sister?
Puja:
I am fine by the grace of God.
Fatima:
Sister, somehow a huge distance has been created between us. Muslims tend to stay away from Hindus, and Hindus also tend to stay away from Muslims. Nowhere on your forehead is it written “Hindu”, and nowhere on my forehead is it written “Muslim”. If your body is cut, red blood comes out; if my body is cut, the same red blood comes out. There is no difference between you and me. Similarly, there is no difference between your Creator and mine. Our Creator is one.
Puja:
Is that so? But I believe our Gods are different. Your God is Allah, and ours is Bhagavan.
Fatima:
No sister, our Creator is one. He has created all of us. If that were not true, there would be many differences between us. Just like you have two eyes, I also have two eyes. You have one nose, I also have one nose. You have brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts; I also have them. In the same way, all humans have one Creator.
2. One Owner
Puja:
“What is the proof that our Creator is one?”
“What is the proof that our Creator is one?”
Fatima:
“In the Holy Book Al-Qur’an, Surah Al-Ikhlas says—”
Through these verses, the qualities of the One Creator are clearly described. Can anything made by humans—any object, creature, or being in the universe—possess these attributes?
Sister, can you tell me the name of your main religious scripture?”
“In the Holy Book Al-Qur’an, Surah Al-Ikhlas says—”
‘Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad’ — Say, He is Allah, the One and Only.
‘Allahu Samad’ — Allah, the Eternal Refuge; He is independent, while all depend on Him.
‘Lam Yalid Wa Lam Yulad’ — He neither begets nor is born.
‘Wa Lam Yakun Lahu Kufuwan Ahad’ — And there is none comparable to Him.
Sister, can you tell me the name of your main religious scripture?”
Puja:
“I consider the Vedas as the main scriptures of Hinduism.”
“I consider the Vedas as the main scriptures of Hinduism.”
Fatima:
“That is correct, Puja. But have you ever personally seen or read the Vedas? Is there any translation of the Vedas available in your language?”

“No, I don’t have the Vedas at home; but I do have the Gita. My father said that in the Kali Yuga, the Gita is the easiest and most important path to liberation.”
“No, I don’t have the Vedas at home; but I do have the Gita. My father said that in the Kali Yuga, the Gita is the easiest and most important path to liberation.”
Fatima:
The Gita is actually a part of the great epic “Mahabharata”. It is based on the dialogue between Lord Krishna and the Pandava prince Arjuna just before the Kurukshetra war.
Sister, the Vedas are your main scriptures. The Vedas are divided into four parts—
In your Rigveda (Chapter 32), it is mentioned—
In the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 7), it is mentioned—
In the Brahma Sutra of the Vedas, it is also said—
It is also mentioned in Rigveda (1:164:46)—

Sister, the Vedas are your main scriptures. The Vedas are divided into four parts—
1. Rigveda
2. Samaveda
3. Yajurveda
4. Atharvaveda
“Na Tasya Pratima Asti”
Meaning: God has no form or image.
Those who have lost their wisdom and intellect become engaged in the worship of various gods and goddesses.
“Ekam Brahma Dvitiya Nasti, Neha Nasti Kinchana”
Meaning: God, the Creator, is one and without a second; there is no other existence equal to Him.
“He is One; worship Him alone.”

Ya etam devam ekavratam veda
Na dvitiya na tritiyash chaturtho napyuchyate
Na panchamo na shashthah saptamo napyuchyate
Na ashtamo na navamo dashamo napyuchyate
Meaning: The Creator is one. He is singular. No second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, or tenth can be called God. One who understands Him as One attains Him. The idea of one God belongs to the wise, while the idea of many gods belongs to the ignorant.
Puja:
“Sister! After hearing you, I now firmly believe that— our Creator is one.”
“Sister! After hearing you, I now firmly believe that— our Creator is one.”
Fatima:
“What is your religion called?”
“What is your religion called?”
Puja:
“Why? Hindu!”
“Why? Hindu!”
Fatima:
“Sister, look—‘Hindu’ is not actually the name of a religion.
In ancient times, people living near the Indus (Sindhu) River were called Hindus. Many Aryans used to pronounce the letter ‘S’ as ‘H’, so the word ‘Sindhu’ gradually became ‘Hindu’.
Therefore, ‘Hindu’ is originally a geographical and cultural identity. However, what is commonly called ‘Hinduism’ today is also referred to by many as ‘Sanatana Dharma’.”

4. Shirk
Fatima:
Sister, do you like idol worship?
Sister, do you like idol worship?
Puja:
Sister! My ancestors have all done it, so I also do it. But no one has ever explained to me what the Vedas actually say about this.
Moreover, our religion does not allow us to read the Vedas. In Hinduism, only Brahmins are allowed to read the Vedas.

Fatima:
Both the Qur’an and your scriptures clearly prohibit idol worship.
In the Qur’an it is said—
Shirk means associating partners with Allah or involving others in His worship.
Both the Qur’an and your scriptures clearly prohibit idol worship.
In the Qur’an it is said—
“La tushrik billah” — Do not associate anyone with Allah (do not commit shirk).
“Inna ash-shirka lazulmun azeem” — Indeed, shirk is the greatest injustice.
Fatima:
In your scripture Yajurveda (Chapter 40, Verse 9), it is said—
In your scripture Yajurveda (Chapter 40, Verse 9), it is said—
“Andham tamah pravishanti ye asambhutim upasate.”
Tato bhuya iva te tamo ya u sambhutyam ratah.
Meaning: They enter into darkness who worship natural elements (such as fire, water, air, etc.).
And those who worship man-made objects (such as idols, tables, chairs, etc.) fall into even deeper darkness.
Fatima:
On the other hand, in the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 10, Verse 3) it is said—
So we can see that just as the Qur’an calls for worship of the One Creator only,
similarly your scriptures also emphasize the worship of a single Creator in many places.
On the other hand, in the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 10, Verse 3) it is said—
They are materialistic people who worship demigods; they do not worship the true Creator.
Puja:
Something is bothering me!
Are Brahma and Vishnu not worthy of worship? Are they not gods?
Something is bothering me!
Are Brahma and Vishnu not worthy of worship? Are they not gods?
Fatima:
Alright, let me give you some idea about the deities.
According to your scriptures, God can be both formless and with form.
The principal deity is Brahma. He is known as the creator; that is, according to your belief, Brahma created everyone.
The other two deities are Vishnu and Shiva. Shiva is known as the destroyer, while Vishnu is the preserver and sustainer.
But do you know that Brahma's wife is Saraswati?
In many traditional stories, Goddess Saraswati is described as a daughter of Durga.
Likewise, the wife of Vishnu, who is regarded as the sustainer, is Lakshmi.
In various Puranic accounts, Lakshmi is also described as another daughter of Durga.
Now sister, think about this for a moment—
I am only asking you to reflect on these questions. Because thinking about what the true Creator should be like is very important.

Can the Creator have parents?
Does the Creator need to marry?
Can the One who created everything
be the child of someone else?

To be honest, I have never really thought about these matters before.

Sharadiya Durga Puja — The largest Hindu festival. During this worship, members of Durga's family including Brahma, Vishnu, Kartikeya, Ganesha, Lakshmi, Saraswati, and the demon are worshipped. Ritual worship also includes banana plant, taro, turmeric, jayanti plant, bel leaves, pomegranate, ashoka, giant taro, rice paddy, and various other sacred plants and items.
Fatima:
In your religion, one of the principal deities is Shiva. Shiva's wife is Parvati, also known as Durga. Durga is regarded as the Goddess of Power. In various traditional narratives and artistic depictions, Durga has been portrayed with different numbers of arms. Over time, the ten-armed form became the most widely recognized representation, symbolizing power extending in all directions. Durga's fierce destructive form is known as Kali.
Durga's children are Kartikeya and Ganesha. Her daughters are Lakshmi and Saraswati. Lakshmi is the Goddess of Wealth, while Saraswati is the Goddess of Knowledge. Lakshmi's husband is Vishnu, who is known as the Preserver. Saraswati is associated with Brahma, who is regarded as the Creator.
Now, if Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are understood to be manifestations of the same ultimate reality, questions may arise about how their family relationships are to be interpreted. Different traditions and schools of thought explain these relationships in different symbolic, theological, or mythological ways rather than as ordinary human family relationships.
I am simply encouraging you to think about these matters carefully. What qualities should the true Creator possess? Can the Creator be limited like human beings? Reflecting on such questions is important when trying to understand the nature of God.

Sri Krishna
Fatima:
Vishnu's 7th avatar appeared on earth as Rama.
Vishnu's 8th avatar appeared as Sri Krishna.
Did you know that Radha is described in some traditions as being related to Krishna's family? Yet Krishna is most famously associated with Radha in devotional literature and tradition.
According to Hindu scriptures and traditions, Sri Krishna had 16,108 wives, among whom 8 are considered principal queens. It is also said that he had many thousands of children. According to traditional accounts, he lived for 125 years. Near the end of his life, a hunter named Jara mistook his foot for a deer and shot an arrow that caused his death.
The one whom millions of Hindus throughout the world worship as Lord and Supreme Being is described in these traditions as having died after being struck by the arrow of an ordinary hunter.

The Story of Ganesha and Kali

Fatima:
According to the Puranic story, one day Shiva returned home and saw an unfamiliar young man guarding the entrance. Becoming angry, he severed the young man's head. He did not realize that the boy was Ganesha, his own son.
After losing her son, Parvati was overcome with grief. Seeing her sorrow, Shiva became distressed and hurried into the forest.
According to the story, it was decided that the head of the first living creature seen in the forest would be attached to Ganesha's body. The first creature encountered was an elephant. Shiva brought the elephant's head and placed it upon Ganesha's body.
From that time onward, Ganesha was depicted with the head of an elephant.

Fatima:
On the other hand, Ganesha's vehicle was a mouse. It is said that Ganesha traveled from place to place riding on a mouse. Durga's vehicle is a lion, while Kartikeya's vehicle is a peacock.
Now tell me, do you think it is possible to attach an elephant's head to a human body? And how can a mouse, a lion, or a peacock literally serve as someone's means of transportation?

Fatima:
According to information commonly found in traditional accounts and reference sources, the Asuras once attacked the heavenly realms and attempted to seize control from the Devas. To defeat them, Goddess Durga appeared to wage war against the forces of evil.
The battle is described as beginning with the blowing of a conch shell. Durga wielded various weapons, including a trident and a sword. Serpents are also associated with her iconography, which is why such symbols are often depicted in her hands.
Although many Asuras were defeated, their leader Raktabija remained. According to the story, whenever a drop of Raktabija's blood fell to the ground, another Raktabija would emerge from it.
At that moment, in Durga's intense fury, Kali emerged from between her eyebrows.

Fatima:
To prevent even a single drop of Raktabija's blood from falling to the ground, Kali pierced his body with her weapon, lifted him up, and drank all of his blood. When all his blood was exhausted, Raktabija died.
Afterward, Kali began her victory dance. She made a garland from the severed hands of the slain Asuras and wore it around her waist. She also fashioned a garland of heads and wore it around her neck.
According to the story, Kali became so absorbed in her furious dance that she did not respond even when Shiva repeatedly tried to stop her. Seeing no other way to calm her, Shiva lay down beneath the feet of the dancing Kali.
Only then did Kali regain awareness. Her dance came to a halt. Seeing her husband beneath her feet, she became embarrassed and stuck out her tongue.
This is why many traditional depictions show Lord Shiva beneath the feet of Goddess Kali.

Fatima:
According to some interpretations presented by certain writers, the Kalki Avatar of Kali Yuga is associated with the term “Narashansa.” The word is Sanskrit and may be translated as “praised man” or “one who is praised.” They argue that the Arabic equivalent would be “Muhammad,” which also means “the praised one.” The name of our final Prophet was Muhammad (peace be upon him).
These interpretations also claim that Kalki Avatar's mother's name is “Sumati,” a Sanskrit word associated with good understanding or noble wisdom. Some authors draw comparisons between this and the name “Amina,” the mother of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Such comparisons are part of a particular apologetic interpretation and are not universally accepted by Hindu or academic scholars.

Fatima:
According to some interpretations, the father of the Kalki Avatar is said to be “Vishnu Yasha.” The word “Vishnu” is interpreted as “Lord,” and “Yasha” as “servant.” Thus, “Vishnu Yasha” is understood as “servant of the Lord,” which is compared to the Arabic meaning “Abdullah.” Abdullah is known as the name of the father of the final Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
It is also mentioned that the birthplace of the Kalki Avatar will be a place called “Shambhala.” “Shambhala” is a Sanskrit word, often interpreted as “place of peace.” In Arabic comparison, it is associated by some writers with “Makkah.” Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born in Makkah.
His birth is described as occurring on the twelfth day of the bright half of the month of Madhav. When converted into the Arabic calendar, some correlate it with the 12th of Rabi al-Awwal. This is presented as a similarity with the birth date of Muhammad (peace be upon him). It is also mentioned that angels would assist him in battlefields like Kurukshetra, similar to the belief that angels assisted in the Battle of Badr.
Further descriptions include that Kalki will be an equestrian warrior, active for the entire world, born in a circumcised state, and that after defeating evil forces, people from villages will gradually accept his message.
The Kalki Purana is also said to describe him as the final sage. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is regarded in Islam as the final prophet. It is also mentioned that he will use a sword to establish justice in a time when injustice prevails. However, in the present age, it is generally understood that there is no longer a “sword-based era” of propagation.
Based on these comparisons, some conclude that the Kalki Avatar refers to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who came approximately 1450 years ago and left the Qur’an and Hadith as guidance for humanity.

Just imagine for a moment: when your mother passes away, according to Hindu funeral customs, her body will be placed on a funeral pyre and cremated.
The flames will consume the body and the clothing will burn away during the cremation process.
As the cremation continues, attendants may use long bamboo poles to reposition the remains and ensure complete burning.
Eventually, the body is reduced to ashes.
Do you think you would be able to watch such a scene?

In our religion, when someone passes away, the body is carefully washed and treated with dignity and respect.
No distinction is made between rich and poor, familiar or unfamiliar.
The deceased is wrapped in a simple white shroud, and a funeral prayer is offered before burial.
Great care is taken in laying the deceased to rest.
Some people also argue that cremation releases gases and particles into the atmosphere, whereas burial returns the body to the earth through natural decomposition.
Different religions and cultures have their own understandings of which funeral practice is most respectful and appropriate.

Fatima:
Have you ever heard about the practice of Sati?
It was a historical custom in parts of the Indian subcontinent in which a widow was expected or pressured to die on her husband's funeral pyre after his death.
Historical records describe cases where some women attempted to escape but were prevented from doing so by family members or local authorities. However, the circumstances varied greatly from place to place and over time.
Social reformers strongly opposed this practice. One of the most prominent figures was Raja Rammohan Roy, who campaigned against Sati for many years.
Eventually, the practice was officially banned on December 4, 1829, under British Indian law.
This raises an important question: if a practice causes such suffering and injustice, should it be considered a true reflection of divine teachings, or was it the result of human customs and social traditions?
Have you ever heard about the practice of Sati?
It was a historical custom in parts of the Indian subcontinent in which a widow was expected or pressured to die on her husband's funeral pyre after his death.

Caste System
Fatima:
Do you know that a person can be treated as inferior from birth, even though they have done nothing wrong?

The traditional caste system in Hindu society was historically organized into four major groups: Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras.
Some ancient texts describe these groups symbolically as originating from different parts of the Cosmic Being, with Brahmins associated with the mouth and Shudras with the feet.
Historically, this system often resulted in unequal rights, privileges, and social status. In many periods, members of lower castes faced severe discrimination and restrictions.
Certain ancient legal texts prescribed different punishments for similar offenses depending on a person's caste. Critics argue that such laws created deep social inequalities.
For example, some passages in ancient law books prescribe extremely harsh penalties for lower-caste individuals who insulted members of higher castes, while the punishments for higher-caste offenders could be much lighter.
Because of these inequalities, many reformers throughout history challenged caste discrimination and called for equal dignity and rights for all human beings.

Some ancient legal texts state that if a Shudra gives religious instruction to a Brahmin, severe punishments may be imposed upon him. Certain passages also prescribe harsh penalties if a lower-caste person attempts to place himself on equal social standing with a Brahmin.
Traditionally, the four varnas (social classes) were regarded as distinct groups. In many historical periods, marriages between different varnas were discouraged or restricted. Critics argue that such rules created social inequality and discrimination.
According to the Hindu concept of reincarnation, a person's next birth is influenced by the good and bad deeds performed in previous lives. References to rebirth and karma are found in texts such as the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads.
It is believed that a soul may be reborn in different forms according to its karma. Supporters regard this as a spiritual reality, while critics argue that reincarnation cannot be scientifically verified.
Some critics also question the concept by arguing that if most people accumulate negative karma, the number of humans should decrease over time rather than increase. Therefore, they consider reincarnation to be an unscientific explanation.
In contrast, Islam teaches that all human beings are born innocent and free of sin. Every individual is held accountable for his or her own actions and receives reward or punishment according to personal deeds.
During congregational prayer in a mosque, a president and a poor laborer may stand side by side in the same row. In principle, no distinction is made on the basis of wealth, race, family background, or social status.
The position of Imam is not inherited. A poor person may become an Imam if he acquires the necessary knowledge of the Qur'an and Islamic teachings, while the son of an Imam cannot automatically inherit that position without the required qualifications.
The first Mu'adhdhin of the Prophet's Mosque was Bilal (RA). He was formerly a slave and the son of a slave, yet Islam honored him greatly because of his faith, character, and devotion.

In many traditional Hindu communities, only Brahmins were allowed to serve as temple priests. Historically, access to Vedic study was also often restricted to certain social classes, and many people were not permitted to read the Vedas themselves.

The Acceptance of Islam by Umar (RA)
Fatima:
Umar (RA) was one of the greatest statesmen in Islamic history and later became the ruler of a vast empire. However, he was not initially a Muslim.
One day, Umar (RA) left his home carrying an unsheathed sword with the intention of confronting and killing Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
On his way, he learned that his own sister and brother-in-law had accepted Islam.
Upon hearing this, Umar (RA) immediately went to his sister's house.
At that moment, his sister and brother-in-law were reciting verses from the Qur'an. As soon as they saw Umar (RA) approaching, they hid the manuscript they had been reading.
Nevertheless, Umar (RA) realized that they had been reciting something.
He asked,
"What were you reading? Is it true that you have abandoned the religion of your forefathers?"
Then he began striking his brother-in-law.
When his sister stepped forward to defend her husband, Umar (RA) struck her as well. Both of them were injured and bleeding.
Yet despite their injuries, they declared firmly:
"We have knowingly embraced Islam, and no amount of force or hardship can turn us away from it."
Seeing their unwavering determination, Umar (RA) was deeply affected.
He then said:
"Very well. Let me hear what it is that you were reading."

Sister Fatima brought the portion of the Qur'an and placed it before him. It was Surah Taha. She began reciting and reached verse 14:
1) Ta-Ha.
2) I have not sent down the Qur'an to you to cause you distress.
3) Rather, it is a reminder for those who fear Allah.
4) It is a revelation from Him Who created the earth and the high heavens.
5) The Most Merciful is established over the Throne.
6) To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens, whatever is on the earth, whatever is between them, and whatever lies beneath the soil.
7) Whether you speak aloud or silently, He certainly knows the secret and what is even more hidden.
8) Allah—there is no true deity worthy of worship except Him. To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names.
9) Has the story of Musa reached you?
10) When he saw a fire, he said to his family, “Stay here. Indeed, I have seen a fire. Perhaps I can bring you a burning ember from it, or find guidance at the fire.”
11) Then, when he came to it, he was called, “O Musa!”
12) “Indeed, I am your Lord. So remove your sandals. Surely, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa.”
13) “And I have chosen you, so listen carefully to what is being revealed.”
14) “Indeed, I am Allah. There is no true deity worthy of worship except Me. Therefore, worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance.”

The Hereafter
Fatima:
Allah has sent us into this world with a short life as a test. At this very moment, where I am sitting, if someone were to ask whether any of us existed here 100 years ago,
the answer would be, "No."
Likewise, if we are asked whether any of us will still be here 100 years from now, the answer would be the same.
We should reflect on this: Where were we before? Where are we now? And where will we go next?

That is why it is important to reflect on whether I am truly following the path shown by Allah—the Lord who loves us more than our own parents, who created us with such mercy and care, and who has surrounded us with countless blessings.
Even when buying something small, we carefully examine and verify it many times. So should I not strive to know Allah properly—the One who gave me this beautiful life and to whom all of us must ultimately return?
The only religion acceptable to Allah is Islam.
According to Islamic belief, the very first humans, Adam and Hawwa (Eve), were Muslims. Likewise, Isa (peace be upon him), whom Christians regard as the Messiah, was a Muslim and a Prophet of Allah.

Musa (A.S.) was also a Prophet of Allah. Allah sent prophets and messengers throughout different eras so that people could recognize the truth. Not only prophets, but also divine scriptures were revealed with them.
Except for the Qur’an, all previous religious scriptures have been altered by people according to their own wishes. In the entire world, the Qur’an is the only preserved scripture that has not been changed or modified.
There are hundreds of millions of Huffaz (memorizers of the Qur’an) across the world. Even if, hypothetically, all copies of the Qur’an were destroyed, these Huffaz could easily reproduce the Qur’an word for word from memory.
Many scientific explanations are said to align with the Qur’an. Through the Qur’an, new horizons of knowledge have been opened. It contains approximately more than 6,000 verses. Despite all efforts, no one in the world has been able to find a single line of error in it.
