Islam and Atheism – Quran Verses about Atheism

Table of Contents

In Islam, atheism is considered to be a rejection of the fundamental principles of the religion, as it involves denying the existence of God. According to Islamic belief, God is the creator of the universe and everything in it, and is the source of all guidance and wisdom. Therefore, those who reject the belief in God and his existence are seen as going against the teachings of Islam. Islam teaches that faith in God is essential for leading a righteous and fulfilling life, and that those, who reject this belief are misguided and will be held accountable for their actions on the day of judgement. However, Islam also emphasizes the importance of freedom of conscience, and allows individuals to make their own choices about what they believe. Muslims are encouraged to respect the beliefs of others, even if they disagree with them, and to engage in dialogue and discussion in a respectful and peaceful manner.
