Perfect Man
We know that there are different views about the nature of man, two of which stand opposed to each other: the view of the spiritualists and that of the materialists. According to spiritualists, man is a reality composed of body and spirit. The spirit is eternal and does not perish with death, and we know that religion and Islamic texts affirm this view. According to materialists, man comprises only this machine of the body, which is destroyed with death, and its dismemberment means the dissolution of his personality.
