Description
Summary:This article explores the foundational structure of the Quranic worldview, with a particular focus on the relationship between God and humans. It presents this relationship as a dynamic and complex dichotomy, where God is the ultimate and singular reality, with no equal in creation. At the same time, humanity is His creation, endowed with both existence and purpose. The text examines how this divinehuman relationship is articulated through three primary categories: ontological, communicative, and moral. These categories highlight the hierarchical yet deeply interconnected nature of this relationship. The ontological relationship emphasizes God as the Creator and humans as His created beings, while the communicative relationship highlights God’s revelation to humanity, guiding them toward salvation. Finally, the moral relationship contrasts human virtues like gratitude and piety with their opposites, underscoring the importance of moral alignment with divine will.
