Re-quoting an incident. A very highly educated man came to Pakistan with three questions in his mind and demanded to meet the famous Islamic scholars and clerics of the city. He met an scholar and asked him his three questions. 1. If there is God then how does he look like? 2. What is destination? 3. Why are jinns (ghosts) made up of fire? The scholar pondered for a moment and slapped that man hard on his face, startled and furious the man asked him that why had he slapped him on his face so badly. The scholar replied that your three questions’ answers are present in that slap. The man told the scholar to explain what he meant. The scholar replied “I slapped you hard on your face and I am sure you were hurt, weren’t you?” the man said “yes”. The scholar said “Can you explain me how your hurt looks like, you felt that slap badly didn’t you?” the man said “No I cannot explain how it looks.” The scholar said “Similarly God exists but we cannot describe how He looks, His nature is beyond the limits of man’s understanding.” Then the scholar said “Now you must be thinking as to how this slap could be the answer of your second question. You dream don’t you?” the man replied in the affirmative. “Did you ever imagine, dream or even think that I would slap you?” the man said no. So the scholar replied “This is what destiny is, you never know what could happen next and whatever happens next is destiny.” The scholar again said “I slapped you and my hands and your cheeks are both covered by skin, and it hurt you badly. Similarly jinns(ghosts) are made up of fire because on the Day of Judgement when the sinners will be burnt with fire the ghosts will also be burnt with fire and imagine how much it will hurt them at that time.
