Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books A Journey To The Fact The Philosophy of Contradiction F O son! Is there anything new? S Yes Dad! I’ve thought too much about the purpose proof, which we talked about... I’ve tried the a question “why”, but that led me to many questions, which I couldn’t find answers to, and I fear that I would disturb you by asking you for more explanation. F No, it’s not disturbing at all. Ask whatever you want and don’t hesitate. S So, Dad...

Why has God created both Heaven and Hell and didn’t create Heaven only? Why have He created pain, evil, death, disasters and disease? Why have He created tyrants, wicked people to hurt innocent and weak people? F Do you know son, that you’ve answered your questions in your question unintentionally? S How is that, father? F You said: why were the Heaven and Hell created? You also said: why were evil, tyrants, diseases and disasters created? Didn’t you?... S Yes Dad!

This is the question, which preoccupied my mind recently. F OK! Let me describe the problem or the problems on condition that you fully pay attention to what I say. S I’m attentively listening now, my dear father. F First of all, listen to the following poem and memorize it by heart: If there was no ugly, there would be no beauty If there was no imperfection, there would be no perfection . S Yes Dad! I’ve memorized it. It’s easy-to-memorize, but what do you mean?

Or what do you want to convey by this poem? It’s a nice verse of poetry. F Of course! Don’t you believe that if all the ladies were beautiful and charming to the same extent, there would be nothing called beautiful on the Earth at all and there would be no beautiful and charming lady! S How is that, Dad? Let me think... Yes!... Right! If all the ladies were beautiful... Or, if there were no ugly (or less attractive) lady, none would be more beautiful or beautiful at all... F Exactly!

If, say, blue eyes were beautiful and all ladies on Earth had blue eyes, there would be no preference for having blue eyes over those who have black eyes (or vice versa). The same rules apply for height, nimbleness, countenance, nose or any other feature that is beautiful in a human body. S Yes, if all ladies were beautiful, there would be no meaning for beauty at all. F On the other hand, ugliness makes beauty beautiful... Also, imperfection means that there should be perfection, shouldn’t it?

S But Dad! What is the fault of a poor one who is ugly or less beautiful? F She has no error...
