I
had
a
course
on
Islam
and
Atheism
from
Lote
Tree
Foundation.
The
course
was
taught
by
Dr
Shoaib
Ahmad
Malik.
Dr.
Shoaib
needs
no
introduction.
The
course
has
highly
benefitted
me
Alhamdulillah.
The
content,
teaching,
Q&A
session,
teacher
student
engagement
and
bond,
etc
everything
was
great.
The
course
had
11
main
sessions
with
12th
one
as
general
Q&A
session.
I
came
to
know
what
Atheism
is.
Before
i
had
a
problem
engaging
atheists
because
i
had
not
actual
academic
understanding
of
the
word
atheism.
In
the
beginning
sessions
I
learnt
academic
meaning
of
Atheism.
What
implications
does
the
wrong
definition
of
atheism
have
was
wonderfully
taught.
In
the
mid
sessions
of
the
course,
i
learnt
the
following:
-A
universe
from
nothing:
How
atheists
like
Lawrence
Krauss
argue
of
a
universe
from
nothing
and
what
nothing
means
for
them.
-Evolution,
Multiverse
and
Design:
How
atheists
undermine
design
using
evolution
and
multiverse.
-The
problem
of
evil:
The
3
types
of
problem
of
evil
and
how
atheists
use
them
to
disprove
God.
Next
session
included
arguments
that
theists
in
general
and
muslims
in
particular
can
use.
These
include:
-Argument
from
design:
how
we
can
use
it
against
atheists.
Also
what
are
the
opposing
arguments
against
this
argument
from
Design.
-Kalam
Cosmological
Argument:
What
it
is?
How
can
we
use
it?
What
are
the
arguments/
criticisms
against
it?
-The
contingency
argument:
This
is
the
foundation
of
islamic
theology.
Next
session
was
about
Science,
Naturalism
and
Scientism.
This
was
a
fun
learning
session.
What
is
science?
What
is
scientism
and
naturalism?
And
much
more...
Finally,
we
learnt
about
the
problem
of
evil
and
islam.
What
are
the
responses
of
MOATAZILISM,
ASH'ARISM
and
MATURIDISM
to
the
problem
of
evil.
The
ending
session
was
general
Q&A.
Dr.
Shoaib
addressed
our
questions.
In
addition,
i
personally
was
guided
for
my
future
in
this
field.
I
thank
LOTE
TREE
FOUNDATION,
its
team
and
DR.
SHOAIB
for
this
course.
May
Allah
accept
it
from
us.
Aameen.
I
love
Dr.
Shoaib
for
the
sake
of
allah.
