Why cant we scientifically prove god?

They also argue as to why there is evil in the world if their is a God deity overseeing everything?
I come across that a lot. Funny how some scientific people don't realize that this world is nothing but a test ground for humans. Our lives are temporary for a reason. And Allah has given us the power to eliminate evil. But our lazy bones don't want to get up and do it. Instead we work for it. Imagine what would happen if people of the world unite and rise against the elite. But nope, its not gonna happen, for we believe in whatever the media says and that keeps us divided quite perfectly.

The laws of good and evil have been ordained, they are as much laws as the physics laws of cause and effect, or the positive and the negative poles of a magnet. They each play their own part within what Allah (swt) has created. It is up to us to choose which side we join (free will).

The Qur'an seems to say a person does not have the power to eliminate evil, that God is the source of the evil, and God is the source of the conflict, not allowing people to unite.
It says even that "had we willed you would have been one community" and things like that, which means "we do not will it, it will not be so".
So it isn't just the Media, but the Master of the Media, and that isn't just Satan, but rather it is only God Ultimately, the one filling your eyes with whatever it is filled with, and your brain, controller of information, creator and dispenser of evil of every sort known and unknown, experienced and not yet experienced, there is no other.
At least there is more than enough confirming that from the Qur'an, but regardless of the Qur'an, science, common sense, linguistics, and whatever else also point towards the same logical necessity.
There is just no way around it.
God is the source of everything, or else what you're calling God isn't worthy of being called God, but rather there is then some Greater Determiner, and I only worship the Ultimate, nothing less. Most people say they worship God, and what they consider Ultimate, but then they define it in such ways that make it clear there are other powers that are the real Ultimate, so it is the Only Ultimate that I worship, not the lesser things, and this can be derived through careful analysis and the Qur'an can be used to also affirm it.

Of course God is the source of all there is, whether we define it as evil or as good. It is merely our limited perception of things that cannot accept that fact. An evil act is only evil because that is how God has programmed this universe. Otherwise the killing of a human has as much, or even less impact on the universe as us killing of a bug or a virus. We do not consider THAT killing to be an evil act because that benefits us and that is too minute a being in the scale of the life we live in. A doctor for us is a great savior while he helps eliminate life forms at the microbial level. In the scale of the universe we are less than microbes and yet we have egos to encompass the universe. People will try their best in trying to justify to atheists why God may kill, all the while crushing an ant under their boot without a second thought. Religions like Christianity and Jainism fail at understanding the scale of how great God is and how insignificant we actually are. Their belief might sound good when arguing over the internet but practically they fail to understand what our creator is.
What we have to differentiate us from an ant is free will and the intellect to determine right from wrong (as ordained by God and imprinted in our conscience). Otherwise in practical terms our existence is insignificant.

There is another way to prove to yourself GOD exists! Devote yourself to GOD Alone and see the miracle! It is a natural instinct?

Therefore, you shall devote yourself to the religion of strict monotheism. Such is the natural instinct placed into the people by God. Such creation of God will never change. This is the perfect Deen, but most people do not know.Also
The heavens and the earth are full of proofs for the believers.If you can reflect, if you can think, if you are knowledgeable, if you can see and hear,if you can understand... Then you have your proofs?
Among His proofs is that He created you from dust, then you became reproducing humans.
He committed in your service everything in the heavens and the earth; all from Him. These are proofs for people who reflect.
Among His proofs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves, in order to have tranquility and contentment with each other, and He placed in your hearts love and care towards your spouses. In this, there are sufficient proofs for people who think.
Among His proofs are the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the variations in your languages and your colors. In these, there are signs for the knowledgeable.
Among His proofs is your sleeping during the night or the day, and your working in pursuit of His provisions. In this, there are sufficient proofs for people who can hear.
Among His proofs is that He shows you the lightning as a source of fear, as well as hope, then He sends down from the sky water to revive a land that has been dead. In these, there are sufficient proofs for people who understand....etc
I am certain of GOD s existence.
GOD bless you all.

Peace.Great quotes MashaAllah, I personally feel that the very fact that our faces are unique and which can help identify us is also a miracle from God. Natural selection cannot answer such minute aspects of why and how we are created. Why do our facial features or our thumb prints give us a unique identity, which we require in every aspect of our lives today? How can "science" explain such things?

We've actually discussed this before, and this is an area where we certainly differ. If God creates the conflict and separation, and there's nothing we can personally do to eliminate this problem, then this scope would have to be applied to everything. And that creates a major issue.
Are we responsible for the choices we make? Do we have any control over what we do, what we think, etc.? And, if not, how can we legitimately be punished by God (via "heaven" or "hell" for the things He causes us to do? Wouldn't that make God unjust, unmerciful, tyrannical, etc.? Do we bear any responsibility for the things we do? Or are we merely victims of God's whims on behalf of us?

Think of it this way What if it were so? What could you do about it? So who cares. It doesn't matter if some little shrimp says if it is legit, or 2 legit 2 quit. What can you do about it? What can you do about causality for example if we are to take a scientific perspective? That you stayed sitting one day for 1 minute extra changes the whole course of human history, because then you weren't at such and such spot, then such and such didn't occur, an ant was spared, a car accident didn't happen. People are ignorant and don't realize how they claim to decide all things by even that one little wiggle of their toe that changes the course of all things.
It is irrelevant. You will do whatever you will do, it makes no difference if you understand it one way or another, you'll do exactly what you'll do. So what if God was all those things, doing it all ultimately, the only power with no other movers or actors in the bigger picture. So what? What can you do about it if that were the case even? Say that it is bad by your standards? What does it change? Will you stop worshiping God if you believed that God alone is the only power, mover, and actor?
This is why I bring up this issue. It brings up the the difficulties for people to face them. In my case, the answer is that God is the Ultimate Power, it doesn't matter of God is bad or good or unjust or just or anything at all, all that matters is that I worship whatever is Ultimate, nothing less. If what people call "God" is relying on "Chance" to determine things, then it is Chance that I worship, not the lesser one that "leaves it to chance, probability, happenstance".
This is the hardest thing for most people to swallow. So don't swallow it. I just bring it up to people to watch them squirm.

When asking about proving God scientifically we first need to be clear on what would constitute proof. How do we know when have reached the proof? This is also closely linked to our image of God.
I'd say that mostly, absence of or failure to prove God, is a sign of a faulty image of God. The problem is our image and expectations. The problem is not proving God.

I do not think we can prove or disprove God for the reason that we do not know God, we know something about God, that which may be within our power, but we do not know God. We may prove that there is something that we do not know but minimally, but that is not proving God. Anybody could say that since we only can get an idea of something indeterminate that that is no proof of anything.
For us it would be clear that that which we cannot encompass in order to prove or define is God, but for other people who have mental barriers to admit eternity, nothingness, infinity, any suh attributes of God, that means nothing. We would have to proof to that person infinity, eternity, nothingness.
Somehow I think that acknowledgement of God is something that comes with the person and when it comes. I do not think it is a matter of proof. I do not think I could prove God to anybody. The only wayI would know would be the pragmatical way talk to Him. That is the one proof, or Listen to Him. Talking to another person about God as you would about cabbages, as if He was some thing, is totally unreallistical.

God is evident. There! See?
