The Secret of Life: The Difference Between the Soul and the Self, and Why God Concealed His Essence | Mustafa Mahmoud

In this video, we embark on a profound spiritual and philosophical journey to explore the secret of life and the unique qualities that distinguish living beings from inanimate matter. Have you ever wondered what the difference is between the Soul (Ruh) and the Self (Nafs) according to the Holy Qur’an? And why did Allah, the Almighty, conceal His Divine Essence from His creation while revealing His attributes and signs in every atom of the universe?

We also explore fascinating unseen realities, including life after death, the intermediate realm (Barzakh), and what it means when "the veil is lifted." In addition, we discuss the interpretation of dreams, the difference between true visions and confused dreams, and how the human soul may connect with the unseen world during sleep.

This content is inspired by the reflections of Dr. Mustafa Mahmoud from his renowned television series Science and Faith, where science and religion come together to address some of humanity's deepest existential questions.
