Below  civilized standard of life (in terms of dress, food, education etc.)  without any religion and Shar\u012b&#8217;ah (No prophet, no holy book of guidance)  in remote areas of the world, they are cut-off from the civilized  world. A question arises for scholars of history and religion how they  are detached from the main linage of human civilizations, cultures, and  religions.<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>We believe that the Almighty has given every human sound <em>fitrah<\/em>  (human orientation) and reason to work on the signs of God&#8217;s providence  in the universe and in himself. Nobody will be left unquestioned about  the Almighty Allah and the afterlife. As for the details and laws  revealed through the Prophets and Messengers [pbuh] they only apply to  those who are exposed to them. If somebody is not exposed to the  teachings of the Prophets and even if he is but with distorted teachings  then his case will be justly considered by the Almighty Allah. He knows  all and sees all. He is Just and will not punish someone without just  basis. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2014-12-09<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6166\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the light  of Islam, what will be the fate and judgment of wild African tribal  people, who are living permanently in uncivilized state of life?
