Imo, metaphor, allusion, allegory, etc. are figurative speech that do describe something very real, but not always comprehensible with our physical senses. For example, I can’t see air, but I breathe it. I can’t literally touch love, but I can feel it! Are these things not real?
Thanks also for the share. On the chance the app has intrusive permissions, is there a web version?
Salam my sibling, to you and yours! Blessings of every sort.
Those things are real. And our world (in my understanding) is like the Matrix to God, who’s to say we couldn’t inhabit a Hell as real as this world, right? Regardless, though, it’s a circumstance we’d rather avoid, lol. We are/can be better than that!
Even if we studied it all, who can know for certain? But I believe that, as long as we all see eye to eye on our moral duties (or even just stand by the idea of things being morally right or wrong), the rest is somewhat inconsequential. 😉
Anyway, see you around, stay cool and inquisitive. ✌️
Thank you. I find your company pleasing, as well.

And yes, I found an Internet archive link to it: https://archive.org/details/the-great-quran/page/n28/mode/1up 👋
Hmm. We seem to have different views and how can I answer without studying the material, in depth?
Thank you for the link. I’ve got homework to do, so I’d best get to it. I’m sure I’ll be asking plenty of questions.
