Faith and Human Perfection in the Modern Age: Nursi’s Aspects

Human perfection has been an important problem for centuries. People tried to get a perfectness, but sometimes they could not be successful in getting it. In this age Said Nursi, as an important religious figure, attempted to solve this problem or issue. For his aim is to solve and help the problems about unbelief. He explained his ideas about this subject matter in his book The Words at the Twenty-third Word. Just he did in all subjects he used a Quranic verses to explain in this issue. He examines in this chapter the relationship between human kind and his perfection in the context of belief and expresses his ideas in five points. As he exposes ideas about the issue he uses metaphors and then goes to the realities of these metaphors and we find some comparisons between the believer and unbeliever’s circumstances.
