Hyperactive wrote:on a second thought, Haywire. what is your theories how God chose our souls to born in particular time of history, in particular race, ethnicity , race, in particular family, parents? do you think we were in line up, i mean our souls, and God picked us one by one and chosen randomly and start our journey? why you are a male and not a female? i just into that none sense details. looooool
Also you are a damn right, those science-fic books made me to reach places in my mind i would never want to reach. lool
BismilAllah
If I say anything bad is from sheytaan and If I say anything good is from Allah.
On the why questions male vs female or ethnicity etc, Allah knows best I don't know, and I would rather not speculate. But Islam teaches us not to waste time or focus on things that will not benefit us. The answers you are looking are in the Quran, maybe you still haven't got that deeper understanding that Allah blesses with some.
I will go back to the beginning (Adam CS), you know Iblis's refusal and the I am made out of fire and so on and so forth. Remember his Ducaa to Allah to be given respite until the day of Resurrection. Iblis' promise ((Iblees) said: ‘Because You have sent me astray, surely, I will sit in wait against them (human beings) on Your straight path. Then I will come to them from before them and behind them, from their right and from their left, and You will not find most of them as thankful ones (i.e. they will not be dutiful to You)’” (Quran, Al-Aaraf: 16,17).
By now you are wondering why I am mentioning all these and I am aware you are already well versed in this subject and understand better than I.
Here is how I see your dilemma and how you are over thinking this issue. Iblis/sheytaan has a different way of approaching each and everyone of us. For example hyperactive, Iblis isn't going to get you on for Towxiid or major sins, But he gets around that by sneaking on you from a different angle like the none sense female vs male, different time of history etc ect, will keep you busy and little by little might lead you to Kufr, God forbid.
For someone like Haywire, maybe through women or qabyalad

For someone like Chelsea his Soccer obsession, if Chelsea is playing 4AM Canadian time, he will be watching live, but he will find it hard to wake up for Fajr next morning

or Tuushi she will be watching Netflix show and miss Maqrib
Just keep it simple (No Harry Potter)

I am not saying don't think about anything, just make sure it is something that will benefit you in this world and here after. We are all aware of at least most of us I hope, that The Quran tells us "THINK" so many times, but its not about thinking none sense and what not.
