why is the Muslim A Muslim?

god is creator and master of the wold. he is the first Cause and final end. human are his servants. human servise consists of kneading and molding the wold and people into what it and they tought to be. not only is such service posible but the well being and heppiness of humanity depends on it. all this is islam's viw of reality. this viw is not without gounds and justification, not is it devoit of problems.

the first srtiking charakteritic of islam is that its view is wholly positive. it seems to prescribe the doing of good, and trust that the moral imperatives can and will be obeyed. bat arnot humans by nature inclinet to do the opposite, to do evil? is it not human nature to sin, devy god, and disoby the moral command ments? arnot humans fallen creatures and need of ransom and salvation before they can be expected todo good.

thet people are by nature inclined to sin and to defy and disobey godis certaily true., answere islams. but, islam claims, it is equally true theat people's nature is also in clined to oby God, to do good and act ethically. the two are posible for them, and they incilneto the one as much as they do to the other.
