417 Allah's Truth is manifest, and all that is good and true and sane and normal accepts it with j oy. But even where there is "disease in the heart" (
2:10), or judgement is obscured by perversity, every creature must eventually see and acknowledge Allah and His power (
2:167), Cf. R. Bridges: "Testament of Beauty":
4:1419-22 -"For God's love is unescapable as nature's environment, which if a man ignore or think to thrust it off, he is the ill-natured fool that runneth blindly on death." All Nature adores Allah, and Islam asks for nothing peculiar or sectarian; it but asks that we follow our nature and make our will conformable to Allah's Will as seen in Nature, history, and revelation. Its message is universal.
