How Is Creation? Were we created from nothing?

Does God create beings from non-existence? Does non-existence exist?

The creation of things is by appearance from hidden. Meaning, when divine mercy and grace of God appears and becomes visible in one form, a being of beings is created. For example, when sea waves, it creates a wave that did not exist before. The wave was not created from non-existence, but this wave is the manifestation of the sea. The wave was hidden there before and now become visible.

The truth of the wave is the sea, as sea exists, but the wave itself has not been before.

Beings are manifestations of God. Divine grace has appeared, and these creatures become visible. So, the creation of beings from non-existence means this. They were in God’s knowledge and become visible. All beings are waves of the sea of existence and again these waves returned to the sea of existence. And this sea is eternal.

“Truly, to Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return” (Al-Baqara:156).

Allameh Hasanzadeh said, “From the beginning to the end, this grace of existence has filled everyone. Wherever you look, there is existence that we see”.

All praise is to God to the extent that He deserves it.
