Fasad - see 'Corruption'.


See also: Corruption
(Fasad). Corruption or mischief. When Allah Almighty informed the angels that He was going to create man, they replied, "What, will You place therein one who will do corruption therein, and shed blood?" (The Qur'an 2:30). In being created man was cast down to the "lowest of the low". But, in this lies his Ultimate Bliss and Felicity, because he possesses the one necessary thing which will give him the means to rise from the "lowest of the low" to great heights. And, that one necessary thing is his heart. It has the capacity to contain Allah Almighty and attain to Knowledge of Allah.
