Is this universe just a simulation

[Imran Siddiqi]

Neil deGrasse Tyson Says something that Harun Yahya of Turkey said in one of his videos few years ago.

Neil deGrasse Tyson thinks there's a 'very high' chance the universe is just a simulation

We trust the scientists around us to have the best grasp on how the world actually works.So at this year's 2016 Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate at the American Museum of Natural History, which addressed the question of whether or not the universe is a simulation, the answers from some panelists may be more comforting than the responses of others.

Physicist Lisa Randall, for example, said she thought the odds that the universe isn't "real" are so low as to be "effectively zero."
A satisfying answer for those who don't want to sit there puzzling out what it would mean for the universe not to be real, to be sure.

But on the other hand, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, who was hosting the debate, said that he thinks the likelihood of the universe being a simulation "may be very high."
Uh oh?

The question of whether or not we know that our universe is real has vexed thinkers going far back into history, long before Descartes made his famous "I think therefore I am" statement. The same question has been explored in modern science fiction films like "The Matrix" and David Cronenber's "eXistenZ."

But most physicists and philosophers agree that it's impossible to prove definitively that we don't live in a simulation and that the universe is real.Tyson agrees, but says he wouldn't be surprised if we were to find out somehow that someone else is responsible for our universe.

اس فورم پر یہ موضوع بہت کم لوگوں کی توجہ حاصل کرے گا۔ اللّہ نے تو کتاب میں کھلے الفاظ میں اس دنیاوی زندگی کو دھوکہ قرار دیا ہے۔

جان رکھو کہ دنیا کی زندگی تو محض کھیل تماشا اور زینت و آرائش اور تمہارے آپس میں فخر کرنے اور مال اور اولاد میں ایک دوسرے پر سبقت لیجانے کا نام ہے۔ اس کی مثال ایسی ہے جیسے بارش کہ اس سے کھیتی اگتی ہے اور کسانوں کو بھلی لگتی ہے پھر وہ خوب زور پر آتی ہے اور دیکھنے والے تو اسے دیکھتا ہے کہ پھر زرد ہو جاتی ہے اور پھر چورا ہو جاتی ہے۔ اور آخرت میں کافروں کے لیے سخت عذاب اور مؤمنوں کے لیے خدا کی بخشش اور خوشنودی ہے۔ اور دنیا کی زندگی تو محض فریب ہے۔ سورہ الحدید ٥٧ آیت نمبر ٢٠

علّامہ اقبال نے بھی جنّت اور جہنم کو مادی حقیقت کی بجائے احساس سےتشبیہ دی تھی۔ آج کے دور کے سوچنے والے دماغ بھی اس نتیجے پر پہنچ رہے ہیں لیکن سائنسدانوں کی اکثریت جو روحانیت سے عاری ہے اسے اس بات کو تسلیم کرنے سے پہلے ثبوت چاہیے۔ یہ جانتے ہوئے بھی کہ انسان کے حواس خمسہ کی ایک حد ہے۔ اور جہاں حواس خمسہ کی حد ختم ہوتی ہے وہاں ایمان کی حد شروع ہوتی ہے اور ایمان کا تعلق مادی جسم کی بجائے روح سے ہے۔

If this is simulation then this is the most perfect simulation by the creator

Nobody has any evidence of what is outside the universe and the worst case is, scientifically speaking, there does not seem to be any possibility of knowing that either. Universe in itself is so vast that we can not wrap our head around it easily. Just the though of possibility of countless other life forms on other planets is quite fascinating.

Honestly it is a difficult subject so I have to be careful about what I say but I like what Harun Yahya said in his video. This actually strengthens your Imaan. Probably because you are able to explain your belief. This is different than the controversial Wehdat al wojood concept.
