In a verse of the Qur’an (45/24) the pagans are represented as saying: “There is nothing beyond our life in this world. We die as we come to life, and nothing but time destroys us…” By this they probably meant that sometimes a person dies and sometimes he lives, and the difference is due to Time. The word for “Time” is dahr. In cosmology they believed that many aspects of a man’s life -such as his sustenance, the date of his death, and whether his life as a whole was happy or unhappy- were determined or predetermined by an ineluctable power which they usually referred to as “time” (zaman, dahr) or “the days” (eyyâm). This was not a divinity to be worshipped, but a cosmological power to be reckoned with. Connected with the belief that Time determines the events of human life is the belief that these events are predetermined. The cosmological idea that man’s sustenance, death-date and degree of happiness are fixed and determined and that nothing he can do will alter them was taken over by Islam, but these matters were said to be determined by God and not by Time.
