Bediuzzaman Said Nursi (ra) was a deep thinker and a very merciful soul who read the Holy Qur’an deeply and through his reading of it new understandings and thoughts would come to him. He would recite these inspirations to his disciples who would write them down, storing them like gems.
Bediuzzaman
first began to write, explaining the truths of the Holy Qur’an,
even during the first world war when he lead a band of volunteers as
they defended Turkey, teaching even whilst he and his companions were
under fire or on horseback.
These
inspired explanations Bediuzzaman made of the Holy Quran developed into a great
treatise called the Risale-i Nur, through which he expounded and
explained the truths of real Islam in terms that modern people could
understand.
Bediuzzaman
was
a man of worship, agape love and humanity, whose teachings reach
beyond his locality and are as beneficial for people of the West as they
are for
the people of the East.
The
Risale-i-Nur explained ultimate truths and demonstrated the
superiority of the Divine Inspiration (that lead to the Revelation of
the Divine Scriptures such as the Holy Qur’an and Bible) over man
made moral and existential philosophies.
Bediuzzaman
explained in many ways that the Messages from God (that are the Divine
Scriptures) provide the moral and spiritual guidance that people need,
whilst science and philosophy can only ever bring true benefits when
they are used in harmony with this reality.
Through the study of the
Risale-i Nur we may gain a new understanding of human life and our
needs in this modern age.
