About the author, Hamza Andreas Tzortzis

Hamza Andreas Tzortzis is an international speaker, writer and instructor. He holds a PgCert and an MA in philosophy, has studied Islamic thought and theology under qualified scholars, and has delivered workshops and courses on Islamic thought and philosophy. He has also debated well-known academics and thinkers on the subject of Islam and atheism, and that experience shows in the way the book anticipates objections and answers them patiently.

What The Divine Reality covers

The revised edition is arranged in fifteen chapters that move step by step from the claims of atheism to the case for worshipping Allah:

• The definition, history and growth of atheism, and what life without God implies
• Why atheism is irrational and why it goes against human nature (fitrah)
• The Qur’an’s argument for God: could the universe have come from nothing?
• The argument from dependency and the argument from consciousness
• The designed, finely tuned universe
• God and objective morality, and the oneness of God (tawhid)
• Islam’s response to evil and suffering: is God merciful?
• Whether science has disproved God, and the hidden assumptions behind that claim
• The divine authorship of the Qur’an and the truth of the prophethood of Muhammad ﷺ
• The closing chapter, The Free Slave: why Allah alone is worthy of worship

Why The Divine Reality matters

Young Muslims today meet questions about God on social media, in college classrooms and in conversations with friends. Questions such as “Where did the universe come from?” or “Why does Allah allow suffering?” can unsettle a person who has never seen them answered carefully. The Divine Reality gives readers a calm, structured way to think through these doubts. It does not treat faith as a purely intellectual exercise: the book ends by turning the reader towards love, gratitude and worship, which is the real purpose of knowing Allah Almighty.

The book draws on both Islamic and Western thought, so readers learn the language of modern philosophy while staying rooted in the Qur’an and Sunnah. That makes it useful not only for those with doubts but also for those who want to explain Islam to others with confidence and good manners.

Who should read it

• College and university students who face questions about God and religion
• Parents and teachers who want to answer the questions of young people wisely
• Those involved in dawah who discuss Islam with atheists and agnostics
• Readers interested in philosophy, science and religion
• Anyone whose own faith has been shaken and who wants honest, reasoned answers

How to read and benefit

Take the book chapter by chapter rather than rushing through it. Many readers find it helpful to summarise each argument in a few lines after finishing a chapter, so that they can explain it to someone else. Study circles can take one chapter a week and discuss it. Keep a list of the questions that matter most to you and note how the book answers them. Above all, pair the reading with prayer and remembrance, asking Allah for guidance, since certainty is a gift from Him.
