Description

Explore the essence of monotheism in this episode as we dissect the concept of a Necessary Being (NB) with Ustaz Sameer. Unraveling a structured argument, we delve into why multiple gods would disrupt universal harmony, predictability, and design. Witness a philosophical journey, navigating through scenarios that reinforce the conviction that a singular Necessary Being prevails, shaping the very fabric of our existence.
