Does Everything Need a Reason? Leibniz, God & the Principle of Sufficient Reason

Join Sapience Academy https://academy.sapienceinstitute.org/ In this episode, Mohammed Hijab moves into Leibniz, the Principle of Sufficient Reason, and the modern debates around explanation, necessity and contingency. The discussion explores whether everything must have a reason, how atheists use quantum mechanics and “brute facts” as objections, and why the Qur’anic language of dependency and self-sufficiency offers a more powerful way to argue for God.
