  • Rebellion As Part Of Nature

    Posted by Javed on August 18, 2025 at 10:29 am

    Isn’t rebellion a fundamental human trait as people in every age and time rebelled from society and societal structures like governments. Take Socrates for example who was put on trial for his ideas and given poison and many other such people and parties have rebelled throughout human history.

    Man feels that he is undergoing something unjust by the existing power structures and struggles to dismantle them. Isn’t this justified and to be expected from his very nature.

    Sometimes the only or part of motivation comes from the fact he doesn’t like being told what to do.

    So isn’t this part of his nature or fitrah.

    Because to avoid them is also in nature. God has told us that He has instilled both good and bad. He has granted free will, and man has to choose between good and bad. To be in nature does not mean that man has no choice.

      Yes but I’m asking why it’s considered bad not why we will be accountable for it.

    To judge a bad as bad is in our nature, and to avoid it is a moral responsibility; therefore, we are responsible for our deeds.
