Divine justice intro - Lesson 1 - Adalah
One of the most important fundamentals is Divine Justice of Allah swt and trying to understand it.
Why is there evil in the world?
Why was I not a Prophet?
Do we have free will?
Why is my son born handicap?
Why is there poverty in the world?
Why doesn’t God just stop them all?
Such questions will be answered when looking into the Justice of Allah swt.
So the next upcoming lessons on Adalah (Divine Justice) are based on a summary of the books Theological Instructions and Adl-i Ilahi and also based on a summary of lectures by sheikh Jaffer Jaffer and notes from our teachers.

Why are there evils in the world? Adalah - Lesson 4
The first part of this answer deals with discrimination
Why are certain people born rich and certain people are born poor? Why are people born different colours and etc and the second part to this answer will deal with evil and will be explained in further lessons. -
Why did God create differences? Adalah - Lesson 5
Why did God create differences?
We have established that the world has a specific order to it. The order of cause and an effect.
This specific order that we are trying to understand in the creative realm can be understood in two ways.
There is the vertical order and the horizontal order. In The vertical order there is a cause and effect system that deals with the creation and the horizontal order there is a cause and effect system on why things happen. -
Miracles - Adalah - Lesson 6
If there is nothing outside the scope of cause and effect in the horizontal order as mentioned in last lesson, then what about miracles? -
Why does God allow Evil to exist ? Adalah - Lesson 7
From the point of Divine justice, the problem of evil takes a different form.
The issue is not about the existence or non-existence of things, the issue is why is there deficiency is the first place?
Why are people blind, deaf, deformed and etc. Why does God allow all this to happen and Why doesn’t He just stop it from happening?
