The Creation established and strong. Introduction:

The origin of “fitrah” is “Fatr’ and as we have said earlier it means to split asunder from something large and this began to be connected with splitting anything.

Cleaving may be harmful and may be positive in effect and it is evident in two situations.

The creation or birth is the bringing forth of something from the hidden or unseen to the realm of existence so the word “Fitrat” means creation also, and is also used for the beginning and innovation. It is also used for opening the fast because by eating food the continuous state of hunger is rendered apart.

The word “Fitrat” is used for the growing of vegetations also because these vegetations come out after splitting the earth cover and in the same way is used for using two fingers to milk and animal as if the udder is split and milk is extracted.(1)

Ibn Abbas says, “I could not grasp the meaning of “Fatirus Samawati Wal Ardh” when two Bedouins came to me arguing among them. Their dispute was about a well. One said, “AnaFatitaha” or I dug the well and then I understood that “Fitrat” means to begin and create.”

The acne visible on the face of young men and women is called “Taqatir” or “Tafatiz”. We find some linguist who take it to mean religion or laws it is because religion exists from the very first creation of man and his regeneration as we will discuss later.
