“The Forces that Deflect People from the Right Way in the Qur'an”
Mazhar DÜNDAR
Abstract Of Title
The reason why man is responsible to Allah is that he has "the mind" that he can use his free will and abilities. With these potential abilities, a person can choose a form of belief and lifestyle. He is held responsible for the belief and lifestyle he chooses in the world life and will has to account for these responsibilities in the hereafter. While this lifestyle preferred by people is sometimes within the framework of revelation, sometimes it can be in the direction desired by the opposing authorities. If he keeps his will and mind out of divine authority, he will be given rein to the factors that make veer from the right way. These factors are to be subordinated to the religion of the ancestors, to comply with the leaders of the society, to follow the rich people who have exceeded the limit and to make bad friendships. Since people could not live separately from the past, they maintained their beliefs and lifestyles largely through the traditional lifestyle they inherited from their ancestors. They grew up with the beliefs and culture of the society in which they lived and became part of it. In addition to analysing whether traditional beliefs and culture in the society are true or false; under the influence of their ancestors, leaders, notables, capital owners, and circle of friends who lived in the past, they often lived and defended that belief and culture. In order for a person living in such a society to realize the wrong aspects of the belief and culture of the society in which he lives, he must be warned and raise awareness in line with the Tawheed belief and divine declarations.
