E. M. Harndi Yazır's Thoughts on Immortality

Abstract

E. M. Yazır is the leading thinker of the recent epoch. He argues that the nature of the soul cannot be known completely, but it has three faculties which are movement, life and understanding. According to Harndi Yazır, the understanding is the sole quality of human spirit. He claims that the soul itself is not an eternal substance per se, however it can be eternal thanks to the God. He argues that anticipation of justice in people and initial creation are the most important evidences of the possibility of life after death.
