•    How do cats sense the world?

•    Why are their form of seeing and sensing the world  different from human beings?
 

The features of creation in cats’ eyes are one of the evidences of the perfection in Almighty Allah’s creation. Our Lord created cats’ eyes with the control and coordination features compatible with the needs of these beings. In one verse, the perfection in Allah’s creation is told as such:
 

“He is Allah – the Creator, the Maker, the Giver of Form. To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names.Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies Him.He is the Almighty, the All-Wise.” (Surat al-Hashr, 24)
 

Cats’ Night Vision Is Very Strong

Cats can easily distinguish colors like green, blue and red. However, the actual superiority of their eyes is that they are created for night vision. Cats’ eyelids open up at nights; so in environments of low light, the colored layer of the eye called the iris makes the pupil larger (covering more than almost 90% of the eye) and allows more light to come in. In environments with high levels of light, this system works in the opposite way to protect the retina, the pupil narrows and turns into a thin line.

There is a layer that does not exist in humans. This layer just behind the retiana reflects the light. Since the light that falls on this layer is reflected back, light passes two times through the retina. Therefore, cats can easily see in low light, and even in dark environments the human eye cannot see in. The reason that cats’ eyes shine under light in the dark is this layer. This layer is made up of tapetum lucidum crystals that reflect light. Thanks to these crystals, the light that falls on the back of the eye is reflected back to the retina. Some of the reflected light   turns back from the lens, and causes the eyes to shine at night. Thanks to this structure, the amount of light the eye can see in the dark is increased, and more precisely, available light is better used. Therefore, cats have  better vision in the dark. This is not a form of bio-luminescence, because the light is not produced by the animal, but  is  a result of light being reflected back.

Another reason that cats can see well in the dark is that there are more rod  cells than cone cells in their retinas. As it is known, rod cells are sensitive to light only. They form a black or white image depending on the light that comes from objects, but they are sensitive enough to work even with little light.

Thanks to these special rod cells, all cats can easily hunt at night. As it is seen, Allah created the most appropriate eye structure for their living conditions and nutritional needs. Cats’ eyes have markedly different structures and characteristics in line with their own needs. This is one of the unique examples of Allah’s art of creation. Our Lord’s unique science of creation is revealed in one verse as such:
 

“The Originator of the heavens and earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, ‘Be!’ and it is. (Surat al-Baqara, 117)
 

Cats’ Visual Field Is Very Wide

In addition to cats’ perfect vision at night, their visual  field is also much wider than that of humans. Whereas  mans'  visual field is limited to 160 degrees, cats can easily see up to 187 degrees. With these characteristics, they can easily detect threats. This characteristic of the eye is another example of Allah’s art and manifestation on beings in different ways. As it is told in the Qur'an, these creation characteristics are a form of example (lesson) for believers:
 

“There is instruction for you in cattle...” (Surat an-Nahl, 66)
 

Cats’ Eye Structure Is Different Than Men

In cats’ eyes, there is a third eyelid called the “nictitating  membrane.” This membrane is transparent, and moves from one side of the eye to the other. As such, cats can blink their eyes without completely closing them. This third eyelid prevents the cat’s eye from being harmed while hunting. Moreover, it ensures materials such as dust and such keep away from the surface of the eye and that the eye stays moist; this is because cats do not constantly blink their eyes like humans. If cats blinked their eyes all the time to keep their eyes moist like humans, this would cause a great hardship for them while hunting. Not blinking their eyes is a perfect advantage Allah created for these beings.

Cats’ Eyes Are Sensitive To Movements

Cats cannot see close-range as clearly as people do and cannot focus on objects close to them. But our Lord granted sensory hairs with a very strong sensory mechanism to these beings. Cats can easily detect close-range thanks to their sense of smell and sensory hairs. Even though these beautiful beings cannot see close-range, they can very clearly sense distances between two and six meters. This distance is enough for them to be  highly efficient hunters.

Another characteristic of cats’ eyes is that they are created sensitive to movement, are panoramic, and in accordance with long-distance visual acuity . Cat’s eyes and brains separate every movement, and everything moving frame by frame. Its brain can also sense more images than ours. For example, they can easily see electronic signs that we cannot detect on a television screen. This is a special talent Almighty Allah granted to all felines. This is because the essence of cats catching their prey is based on the principle of easily distinguishing moving objects.

The Detail and Variety Almighty Allah Created In Cats’ Eyes Is Flawless

Cats’ eyes are created with superior characteristics just like the eyes of all other beings. When the structure and characteristics of the eye are examined individually, it is seen that these eyes with different functions are one of the best examples of Allah’s art of variety. This variety cannot be explained by claims like mutation or natural selection. Almighty Allah granted the most suitable eye type according to the living conditions and nutritional needs of these living beings.

Acquiring knowledge about the amazing system created in the eyes of these beings is an opportunity for a person to see the power and knowledge of Allah Who created him and to appreciate His omniscience. What falls on a person after seeing this truth is to thank Almighty Allah, Who created the entire universe and to behave in the way that will please Him. Our Lord defines those who refuse His verses as “cruel” in one verse:
 

“Who could do greater wrong than someone who is reminded of the Signs of his Lord and then turns away from them, forgetting all that he has done before?…” (Surat al-Kahf, 57)
 

Cats are created in the most ideal way for their environments. They need to breathe, eat, hunt  and defend themselves to stay alive. Therefore, they must see the world around them and distinguish their prey and their foes. Thus, they need very specialized eyesight to see their environment clearly. However, Almighty Allah, Who is the Lord of all worlds, granted flawless characteristics like special eye structures, shapes and visual sharpness to these beings. Our Lord’s creation of special eyes for cats is a source of lesson for believers as revealed in the Qur'an:
 

“And there is certainly a lesson for you in your livestock....” (Surat al-Muminun, 21)
 

The characteristics of cats’ eyes function with the laws defined by our Lord. Allah created these eyes and every detail they possess without any prior example. It is revealed in the verses that our Lord is the Creator of all things:
 

“Allah created every animal from water. Some of them go on their bellies, some of them on two legs, and some on four. Allah creates whatever He wills. Allah has power over all things.” (Surat an-Nur, 45)
 

Atoms, too small to be seen with the naked eye, are made up of a nucleus and ELECTRONS revolving around that nucleus.

Since the proton constituting the nucleus is positively charged and the neutron is uncharged, the nucleus itself is always POSITIVELY CHARGED. The electrons that revolve around the nucleus one million times per  second ARE ALWAYS NEGATIVELY CHARGED.

One of the most important characteristics that makes atoms so magnificent is the endless revolution of the electrons.

The electrons in the atom, that never cease to exist since the moment of their creation, CONTINUE TO REVOLVE UNINTERRUPTEDLY AT THE SAME SPEED, no matter how much time passes or what substance they are a part of.

Every atom has a different number of electrons. For example, there is just one electron in a hydrogen atom, two in a helium atom and 92 in a uranium atom.

These electrons revolve in seven separate orbits. In heavy atoms, some 100 electrons are distributed among these seven orbits. Scores of electrons revolve at an extraordinary speed in the same orbit, or even cross between orbits. YET THEY NEVER COLLIDE.
This is one of the most amazing aspects of electrons. Not one of the hundred or so electrons in seven different orbits, revolving a million times a second, ever collides with another, goes off course or slows down. Each maintains its glorious movement on its own path, in a stunning harmony, and has done so since the creation of the universe.

There is another amazing point here. In order for electrons to have different orbits they should have different masses, just like the planets. But all electrons HAVE THE SAME MASS AND SIZE. It is as yet unknown why the energy levels of these identical particles are different and why they travel in different orbits.

Electrons assume their places in their orbits with a special command and change places when necessary in the same way. They are specially protected, and thus never collide because they are under the sole control of Almighty Allah, Who created and watches over them at every moment.

Every atom created over the last 15 billion years maintains that same wondrous order.

For 15 billion years, not a single electron has followed the wrong orbit, changed speed or collided with another electron because every electron is within the knowledge of our Lord and acts by His command. That is why, in terms of knowledge and creation, everything from giant galaxies to the invisible world inside the atom are all one and the same. They all came into being by our Lord Allah commanding them to “Be!”

I seek  refuge in Allah from the accursed satan:

Our Word to a thing when We desire it is just to say to it “Be!” and it is. (Surat an-Nahl, 40)
 

İnsan beynindeki ufacık bir hasarın sebep olduğu hastalıklar, beynimizin mucizevi özelliklerine bir kez daha dikkat çekiyor...
 
Günümüzde, ortalama insan ömrünün artmasına paralel olarak ileri yaşlara özgü hastalıklar olan, "nörodejeneratif" yani sinir hücrelerindeki tahribatlarla ilgili hastalıklar grubunda bir artış gözlemlenmektedir. İnsan beynindeki ufacık bir hasarın sebep olduğu bu hastalıklar, beynimizin mucizevi özelliklerine bir kez daha dikkat çekmektedir.

Yaşlılık döneminde ortaya çıkan Parkinson hastalığı, hareketlerde yavaşlama, istirahat halinde ellerde ve daha nadiren de olsa ayaklarda titreme, kaslarda sertlik ve denge bozukluğu şeklinde ortaya çıkan bir hastalıktır. İlerleyici bir hareket bozukluğuna neden olan Parkinson, 50 yaşın üzerinde başlar ve görülme sıklığı yaşa paralel olarak artar. Parkinsonizm adı altında toplanan belirtiler beyinde "substansiya nigra" denilen özel sinir hücrelerinin iyi işlev görememesinden ileri gelir.

Beynimiz Hareketlerimizi Nasıl Kontrol Ediyor?

Vücudumuzu hareket ettirirken bunu nasıl başardığımızı hiç düşünmeyiz. Sadece isteriz ve hareket gerçekleşir. Parkinson hastalığını daha iyi anlayabilmek için beynimizin vücut hareketlerimizi nasıl kontrol ettiğini bilmek gerekir.

Beynimizin farklı bölgeleri farklı hareketlerimizi düzenler. Örneğin yürümek için, beyin öncelikle vücudun ihtiyacı olan pozisyonla ilgili bütün bilgileri toplamalıdır. Bir yerde oturuyor musunuz, uzanıyor musunuz veya yürümeye hazır bir biçimde ayakta mısınız? Ayaklarınız neredeler? Dengeniz yerinde mi? Daha sonra beyin, bu bilgilere, "nereye doğru yürüyeceğiniz" bilgisini eklemek zorundadır. Bu sırada önemli bir soru da cevaplanmalıdır. Gözleriniz beyninize ne söylemektedir? Boş bir alanda mı yürüyeceksiniz, merdiven mi çıkacaksınız yoksa kalabalık bir caddede mi yürüyeceksiniz? Ya ayaklarınız beyne hangi bilgileri iletmektedir? Basacağınız zemin, üzerinde yürümesi kolay bir yer midir yoksa dengenizi kaybetmenize yol açacak engebelere mi sahiptir?

İşte bütün bu bilgiler beynin "korpüs stratium" adlı, vücudun hareketlerini kontrol eden bir merkez bölgesinde toplanır. Korpüs stratium denge ve uyumla ilgili emirleri göndermek için beynin diğer bölgeleriyle birlikte hareket eder. Beynin vücuda verdiği hareket emirleri beyinden belkemiğine sinir ağları sayesinde ulaştırılır. Sinir hücreleri bilgileri aktarmak için hücrelerarası mesaj taşıyıcılar kullanırlar. Böylece düşüncelerimiz hareketlere çevrilir.
Bu mesaj taşıyıcıların en önemlisi beyinde üretilen "dopamin"dir. Dopamin, hareketlerimizi ve dengemizi kontrol eden ana maddedir. Eğer özel sinir hücreleri hasara uğrar ya da azalırsa, dopamin üretip depolayamazlar ve beyinde dopamin eksilir. Bu eksiklik ciddi boyutta olduğunda Parkinson belirtileri ortaya çıkmaya başlar. Beynimizdeki bu hücrelerin neden yaşlanmaya paralel olarak azalmaya başladığı bilim adamlarınca henüz çözülememiştir. İşte beynimizdeki ufacık bir hücrenin görevini yerine getirememesi sonucu, tüm hareketlerimizi ve yaşamımızı etkileyen bu önemli hastalık, Parkinson ortaya çıkmaktadır.

Vücudu Kontrol Eden Mucize Merkez: Beyin

İnsan bedeni, büyük bir şehir gibidir. Bu şehrin içinde ulaşım yolları, binalar, fabrikalar, alt yapı sistemleri, en üstün teknolojiye sahip cihazlar, kendisinden hiç beklenmeyecek şekilde şuur gösteren elemanlar yani hücreler, hormonlar, salgı bezleri gibi tam teçhizatlı askerler mevcuttur. Üstelik bu şehir, kendisi de aslında yalnızca bir et yığını olan, sinir hücrelerinden oluşmuş küçük bir beyin tarafından yönetilmektedir. Öyle ki beyinde yani merkezde meydana gelecek en ufak bir hasar bütün bu koca şehri alt üst edebilmektedir.

Peki ıslak ve gri bir et görünümü dışında bir özelliği görünmeyen, basit protein ve yağ moleküllerinden oluşan beyin, bu mucizevi işlemleri nasıl gerçekleştirir? Bizler beynimizin karmaşık tasarımı hakkında bir şey bilmezken ve her saniye gerçekleştirilen on binlerce işlemden habersizken, beynimizde olup bitenler nasıl kontrol edilir? Beyni oluşturan nöronlar şuursuz atomlardan meydana gelirler. Şuursuz atomlar biraraya gelip vücudun hareket edebilmesi için gereken maddenin ne olduğuna nasıl karar verirler? Bu soruların cevabı bir yaratılış mucizesini gözler önüne sermektedir. Etten yapılma bir organın böyle mükemmel işlemleri gerçekleştirebilmesi elbette ki çok büyük bir mucizedir.

Hastalıklar Dünya Hayatının Geçiciliğini Gösteriyor

Parkinson hastalığı gibi hastalıklar bizlere beynimizin mucizevi özelliklerini düşündürdükleri gibi, yaşlılıkla insanın ne kadar aciz bir duruma geldiğini de hatırlatmaktadırlar.

Yaratılmış olan tüm varlıklar içerisinde, zihinsel fonksiyonlarıyla insanın üstünlüğü tartışmasız bir gerçektir. Ancak tüm bu üstünlüklerin aksine, insan korunmaya muhtaç bir bedene sahiptir. Ancak mikroskopla görülebilecek küçüklükte bakteriler ya da Parkinson hastalığında görüldüğü gibi, minicik bir hücrenin ürettiği maddedeki eksilmeler bu bedene büyük zararlar verebilmektedir. İnsan bedeni zaman ilerledikçe yıpranmakta, yaşlanmakta ve fonksiyonlarını yavaş yavaş yerine getirememeye başlamaktadır. Parkinson da, yaşlılıkta yaşanan bu acizliği hissettiren bir hastalıktır.

İşte Allah, insanlara dünya hayatının geçiciliğini göstermek için yaşlılığı ve yaşlılıkla birlikte ortaya çıkan hastalıkları özel olarak yaratmıştır. Her insan bu dünyada ne yaparsa yapsın, gerçek bir tatmine ulaşamaz ve yaşlılıkla mutlaka bir gün karşılaşır. Bunu fark eden insan kendi acizliği karşısında Yaratıcımız olan Allah'ın üstünlüğünü ve yüceliğini kavramalı ve yaşamını O'nu razı edecek davranışlarla geçirmelidir. Allah Kuran'da şöyle bildirmiştir:
 

"Ey insanlar, siz Allah'a (karşı fakir olan) muhtaçlarsınız. Allah ise Ganiy (hiçbir şeye ihtiyacı olmayan)dır. Hamid (övülmeye layık)tır." (Fatır Suresi, 15)
 

All features in the bodies of birds are created especially for flight. Birds need to be light enough to lift off the ground and fly, strong enough to fly over long distances and also some species need to be strong enough to easily carry their prey when they catch it. Therefore, both their feather structures and bone structures need to be light and their size needs to be limited.

·  How are birds’ size limited?

·  What is the connection between birds’ size and molting?

Birds need to molt their feathers at certain intervals in order to preserve the aerodynamic structure required for flight. This is because feathers get corroded as they are exposed to ultraviolet lights and bacteria. However, a certain time is needed for the feathers, which are of vital importance for flight, to molt. Therefore, Almighty Allah created a very important detail, and limited the size of birds so they do not have difficulty in molting. If birds were too big, their feathers would get corroded before they are at the size birds need and would not let the bird fly. But as birds grow, the size of the primary flight feathers increase by 1/3 in comparison to the weight. When this weight increases by 10 times, the feathers’ length almost doubles in size.

As their body size increases, the speed of the increase in a feathers size rises by 1/6 with respect to its weight. When this weight increases by 10 times, it means that the molting time increases by 1.5 times and a bird of 10 kilos in size needs 56 days to renew even a single feather; and this is a very long time for birds that need to fly continuously.

However, our Lord’s mercy and compassion manifests itself over the relationship between the renewal of feathers and the size of birds in the best way:

àSmall birds molt 9-10 flight feathers one or two times a year respectively and by spending three weeks for each one of them.

àIf they are bigger, they use a different method:

·  The feather molting period takes 2 or even 3 years.

·  They molt two feathers in two different spots at the same time.

·  They molt all of their feathers if they do not need to fly for food or to flee from hunters (like ducks and goose).

It is of course an illogical claim that birds think and design these intelligent  behaviors and plan their physical characteristics on their own. The truth is that Allah created birds and all other living beings out of nothing, and that all things move by His command. Allah, the All-powerful, reveals that He is the Owner of all beings in one verse of the Qur’an as such:

"Everyone in the heavens and earth belongs to Him. All are submissive to Him." (Surat ar-Rum, 26)

Almighty Allah is the One Who Determines Birds’ Molting Periods

Bird feathers, which have a very complicated structure and complex aerodynamic characteristics, are created especially for these living things. Even a single bird feather is enough to prove the existence of Allah and the fact of creation.

-   How did birds gain the ability to molt their feathers, which is of vital importance for flight, over time?

-  Who taught them the precautions they need to take in order not to lose their flight abilities in this period?

-  How could a bird take the decisions that will limit the size of its body by making a decision like “I need to change in the shortest time possible and by taking some precautions and thus I need to adjust my body size accordingly”?

There is no doubt that all of the arrangements in the bodies of these beings are the work of Almighty Allah, Who knows what they need to live and fly, grants them all of their needs and Who has superior intelligence and power. Birds change their bodily structures, ways of living and molting times when Allah wills them to do so. Allah created all of these beings and bestowed the necessary abilities on them. All of their functions are an evidence of Allah’s Existence and Might. Therefore, every task they do is an act of praising Allah. Allah reveals in one verse of the Qur’an as follows:

"Do you not see that everyone in the heavens and earth glorifies Allah, as do the birds with their outspread wings? Each one knows its prayer and glorification. Allah knows what they do." (Surat an-Nur, 41)

Every single one of a bird's feathers has a different task. The feathers on the bird’s abdomen, the wing and tail feathers have different characteristics than one another. Tail feathers, which are made up of large feathers, act as steering and braking mechanisms . Wing feathers, on the hand, have a structure that will broaden the surface during flapping and increase levitation force. When the bird is flapping its wings down, the feathers get close to one another and prevent the air from dissipating  in between. During the moment when the bird is raising its wings up, the feathers open up as much as possible and create a position suitable for easy air passage.

Birds cast aside their feathers in order to protect their flight abilities. Large feathers, which are ruptured or torn, are renewed quickly as they cannot carry out their tasks fully.

The functions of bird feathers are very varied. The quills in the feathers help the bird fly. The tail quills that form the tail acts like a steering mechanism and makes it easier for the bird to “apply the brakes “when it lands. All of these are possible by the will of Allah Who is the Owner of superior creation and infinite mercy and by His control over His creations.

“Have they not looked at the birds above them, with wings outspread and folded back? Nothing holds them up but the All-Merciful. He sees all things." (Surat al-Mulk, 19)

Some Interesting Characteristics of Birds:

·      How do the parts of plants, the leaves or branches of which are ruptured or eaten by animals grow again?

·      How does the plant produce  buds and grow after a branch is broken off and put under the ground?

·      How do the plant’s ruptured organs manage to grow more rapidly and efficiently?

Plants, which have a very important role in the maintenance of the ecological balance and life  in the world, have many superior qualities. One of these qualities is that they can mend and renew their ruptured organs.

Cells begin to multiply rapidly again  after a certain loss of tissue occurs in the plant, and they fill in the area where the ruptured organ was. This incident and the increase in the number of cells are realized through mitotic division.

The Speedy Repair Mechanism Right After Injury

After plants are injured, the chromosomes in the cells multiply and in this way they can produce more of the protein required for growth and multiplication. Normally, chromosomes in the cell nucleus are doubled every time the human cell is divided. However, chromosomes are copied again in the parts where the plant is ruptured, but since there is  no growth, the cell has double the normal amount of chromosomes. And as this process continues, chromosome copies invariably increase. In this way, the ruptured parts of the plant are mended.

An experiment, which scientists did on peppergrass, clearly shows this perfect characteristic our Lord bestowed to plants. When the bud of the peppergrass (Arabidopsis thaliana) is picked up, it has only ten chromosomes per cell and after a couple of copies, the number of chromosomes rises up to 320. In this way, in certain types of cells, the number of chromosomes increases and the plant grows in a faster and better way. Such endroreplications (increase in the number of chromosomes) are common in the placenta of nematodes, grass seed and rodents. The fact that the cells in a plant know that the number of chromosomes needs to increase for the repair of the injured part cannot happen via possibility calculations or through the help of coincidences. The one who carries is not  the plant or the minerals in the soil or other outside elements. This is because all of these are a part of the system that forms the plant. Just as there is an engineer who gives the same production data to all of the robots in a factory, and it is not possible that computers could gather this data on their own, in the same way it is impossible that every part of the system in plants could get such data on their own.

Allah is the One Who places the necessary information in plant cells, as in all living things in the world, Who creates all things perfectly and Who knows every creation. Allah reveals this truth in many of His verses:

“He who created the seven heavens in layers.You will not find any flaw in the creation of the All-Merciful. Look again – do you see any gaps? Then look again and again. Your sight will return to you dazzled and exhausted!” (Surat al-Mulk, 3-4)

Plants Repairing Their Injuries is a Manifestation of Almighty Allah’s Compassion and Mercy Over These Beings

In serious injuries like traffic accidents or workplace accidents, people’s organs may be ruptured . There are some conditions for people’s ruptured organs to be made functional  again. It is required that the ruptured organ is still intact, that it is not harmed too much, and that the vascular systems are in good shape. In addition, the ruptured organs need to be kept in a cold and dry environment, at a steady temperature of +4 degrees and they need to be taken to the hospital immediately. A certain field of specialty is required to repair the ruptured organs. Ruptured organs can be sewn, meaning transplantation surgery can be carried out by surgeons who are trained for microsurgery or transplantation. This is because microsurgery stitching techniques are quiet different than normal ones. Surgeons generally learn microsurgery methods during their specialty training, by attending microsurgery lectures and making vascular or nerve studies. During surgery, appropriate surgery tools, microscopes (or loop goggles) and operating room conditions are needed. In some cases, more than one micro surgeon is needed. As it is seen, stitching a ruptured organ back together requires great care and experience. If there is any complication before or after the surgery, it is impossible that the organ could carry out its functions. Most important of all, if this organ cannot be stitched back together or successfully transplanted, the human body cannot produce a new one to replace the ruptured organ. This situation, which is created by Almighty Allah specially to show human beings their weakness, is very different in plants. This is because plants are able to renew their ruptured parts like a broken branch in a very fast way.

However, there is no intelligence, willpower or consciousness in any plant, or in any part of the plant, as a result of its own being. Allah, the All-Knowing and the Almighty, is the One Who controls plants and all of their systems, and Who plans everything to the finest detail. Our Lord makes these systems active through His command and creation. Every event, living and non-living, happens with Allah’s creation moment by moment. Allah reveals this secret in one of His verses as such:

“It is Allah who created the seven heavens and of the earth the same number, the Command descending down through all of them,so that you might know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah encompasses all things in His knowledge.” (Surat at-Talaq, 12)

As it is seen in this example, all living things in the world are created with systems, every detail of which is finely planned, depending on very sensitive balances. We see this everywhere without  exception in every place we look. All living things present Allah Who created them. There is no doubt that Allah is the Only One Who is worthy of praise and Who created all beings with their unique characteristics. Like everything in the world, all plants maintain their existence thanks to the systems Allah specially created; so they are all under His control:

“And with Him are the keys of the unseen treasures-none knows them but He; and He knows what is in the land and the sea, and there falls not a leaf but He knows it, nor a grain in the darkness of the earth, nor anything green nor dry but (it is all) in a clear book.” (Surah al-Anaam, 59)

The plant does not know about its own existence and the miraculous functions it carries out. Because it is under the control of Allah Who planned its every characteristic, created it like everything in the universe, and continues to create every moment. This truth is revealed in the Qur’an as such:

 “The stars and the trees all bow down in prostration.” (Surat ar-Rahman, 5-6)

There is no doubt that Allah, the Lord of all things, shows us the evidences of His superior existence and His unique creation. Allah reveals these evidences in one of his verses as follows:

“It is He Who sends down water from the sky from which We bring forth growth of every kind, and from that We bring forth the green shoots and from them We bring forth close-packed seeds, and from the spathes of the date palm date clusters hanging down, and gardens of grapes and olives and pomegranates, both similar and dissimilar. Look at their fruits as they bear fruit and ripen. There are Signs in that for people who have faith.” (Surat Al-An‘am, 99)

Plants That Continue Their Lineage By Separating From The Main Plant

Some plants can continue their lineage through a single species reproducing in several ways and without any sex discrimination. This reproduction is called asexual reproduction. The new generation, which comes out as a result of this reproduction, is just the same as the generation that preceded it. This is because in every one of plants, which reproduce asexually, there is the same genetic information. In this way, the parts that fall off the plant can form a new plant, which is just the same as the main plant. The most common forms of asexual reproduction in plants are budding and breaking into pieces.

This type of reproduction (budding or breaking into pieces) that takes place with the help of some special enzymes that can be seen in many plants. For example, grass and strawberries reproduce using their horizontal tentacles called “suckers”. The potato, as a plant that grows under the ground, reproduces by producing  buds from new special sections that form in these parts.

In some types of plants, a couple of leaves falling on the ground is enough for a new plant to grow. For example, the plant called “bryophyllum daigremontianum” reproduces thanks to the buds that grow on the tips of its leaves. Every one of these buds turns into a new and independent plant and begin to grow just as they fall on the ground.

In some plants like the begonia, it can be observed  that as fallen leaves are placed on wet sand, after a while small leaves begin to form. So these leaves begin to form a new plant, which is the same as the main plant, after some time. Almighty Allah draws attention to the great miracles of His art of creation in one verse as follows:

“Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the sky and then in the morning the earth is covered in green? Allah is All-Subtle, All-Aware.” (Surat al-Hajj, 63)
 

The atom is the fundamental building block of the entire universe, yet atoms are extraordinarily minute.

It is impossible to see an atom under a normal microscope.

The extraordinary minute size of the atom can be illustrated  with these examples:

The atom is just ONE MILLIONTH of a millimeter across.In other words, 100 million atoms placed side to side would be just ONE CENTIMETER LONG.

One page of paper “IS THE THICKNESS” of approximately 1 million atoms.  

A large protein in the cellconsists of approximately 500,000 atoms.

There are some 40 million atoms in just one of our cells.

If we were to count all the atoms in a single grain of salt, at a rate of 1 million atoms per second, non-stop for 24 hours a day, it would take more than 500 years.

Just this sentence alone contains some 125 million atoms.

Our cells, the food we eat, what we drink, our homes, mountains, seas, the heavens, the Moon, the Sun,the glorious planets, all the stars and galaxies, in short, absolutely everything, are all made up of atoms just  one millionth of a millimeter in size  .

Allah is mighty enough to create all these things from a tiny speck, and to bring them into being out of nothing with no natural causes.Our Lord tells us in one verse that:

I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-

It is He Who created the heavens and the earth with truth. The day He says ‘Be!’ it is. His speech is Truth. The Kingdom will be His on the Day the Trumpet is blown, the Knower of the Unseen and the Visible. He is the All-Wise, the All-Aware. (Surat al-An’am, 73)
 

·  How does the HAMLET  protein, which was lately discovered in mother’s milk, prevent the formation of tumors?

·  What are the characteristics of mother’s milk that change according to the baby’s need?

Proteins are basic bioactive molecules and they are required for the cell to carry out its functions. Some proteins act individually or together with other proteins. However, some of them need the help of chemical compounds that are not proteins. These non-protein molecules can be vitamins, minerals or metal ions. Vitamins or inorganic substances are auxiliary proteins and they are generally named as co-factors. Iron, magnesium, cobalt, copper, zinc, selenium are common ions and auxiliary inorganic substances. These proteins do quite amazing things when they get connected to their helpers. One of the most interesting of these takes place in mother’s milk.

Allah Creates the Protein Called HAMLET in Mother’s Milk As a Result of Miraculous Processes

Mother’s milk is a matchless compound created by Allah in order to meet the nutrition needs of the baby in full and to protect the baby against possible infections. The balance of the nutrients in mother’s milk is in the most ideal measures, and in the best form for the body systems of the immature baby. Mother’s milk, which is called  “the miracle mixture” by scientists as the nutritional values of this milk are at ideal measures, is very rich in nutrients that make brain cells grow and accelerate the development of the nervous system. Even a baby formula prepared with the latest technology cannot replace this miracle food. New benefits of mother’s milk are found every day as a result of research.

As is known, mother’s milk includes many enzymes, vitamins, nucleotides and antibodies. However, scientists have discovered a new protein in mother’s milk lately.

This protein, which is the main protein in mother’s milk and known as “alpha-lactalbumin”, gives mother’s milk a superior quality with respect to cow’s milk. This is because the protein called beta-lactalbumin in cow’s milk is rejected by the baby’s body.

A protein called alpha-lactalbumin is produced at the last stages of pregnancy and nursing time. This protein helps the sugar called lactose inside the milk to be synthesized and makes the baby sleep easily and decreases the baby’s tension. At the same time, when this protein enters the baby’s stomach, it combines with an auxiliary protein called oleic acid. Oleic acid is a well-known fatty acid also called OMEGA 9 (a basic component of olive oil). It decreases blood pressure and prevents deadly diseases that affect the brain. However, when alpha-lactalbumin and oleic acid are combined, a miracle happens and they produce an alpha-lactalbumin protein called “HAMLET” (short for Human Alpha-lactalbumin Made LEthal to Tumor cells) that is deadly to tumor cells in man.

HAMLET Destroys A Great Number of Tumor Cells

As a result of the studies conducted, it was proved that mother’s milk, about which hundreds of articles were published, protected babies against cancer but its mechanism has not yet been understood completely. This complex protein, which is produced only in the baby’s stomach, kills 40 different types of tumor cells. This protein attacks the cell wall, enters inside and begins to change their shape within half an hour after it combines with tumor cells and kills them in six hours on average. However, the interesting thing about this protein is that it can distinguish healthy cells from tumor. Scientists have not yet understood how this protein recognizes tumor cells. It is of course impossible that cells with no mind or consciousness can distinguish between healthy cells and tumor cells. These cells can distinguish between healthy and dangerous cells only by Allah’s inspiration. In the Qur’an, Allah’s sovereignty over all living things is revealed as such:
 

“I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord. There is no creature He does not hold by the forelock. My Lord is on a Straight Path.” (Surah Hud, 56)
 

The interesting point is that the alpha-lactalbumin and oleic acid that form this protein do not have the ability to destroy tumors on their own. Alpha-lactalbumin and fatty acids exist naturally in mother’s milk. But they need to turn into a compound in the baby’s stomach to become the HAMLET protein that destroys the tumor. It is of course a great miracle that Allah creates the cure before the disease, and places all these molecules inside the milk that the baby will drink.

When the protein in mother’s milk, fatty acids and enzymes in the baby’s stomach are not created at the same time, their ability to destroy tumors disappears. No doubt that this is one of the best examples of Allah’s flawless art of creation. In one verse it is revealed:
 

“His command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, ‘Be!’ and it is.” (Surah Ya Sin, 82)
 

Allah Creates Mother’s Milk According to the Baby’s Needs

It is clear that the mother has not decided by herself to produce mother’s milk, which is the most ideal nutrient for her baby, born in need of protection and nutrition, on her own. Therefore, the nutritional values of the mother’s milk are not determined by the mother; this is because the mother cannot possibly know the nutrients required for her baby moment to moment. The mother cannot control the contents of the milk that are formed inside her body. Even if its qualities are not completely defined, the mother’s milk changes according to the growth phases of the baby, and the milk’s content differs according to the nutrients the baby needs during a certain period. Almighty Allah, Who knows the needs of every being and grants them, creates mother’s milk inside the mother’s body for the baby:

Allah creates special treatments and a special nutrient that contains medicine for the baby. The production center of this medicine is the mother’s body. The mother’s body detects the invaders by caring only for the baby. This situation is so perfect that it cannot be explained by coincidences. There is no doubt that Allah creates a very special connection between the baby and the mother. It is revealed in the verse:

“We have instructed man concerning his parents. Bearing him caused his mother great debility and the period of his weaning was two years: ‘Give thanks to Me and to your parents. I am your final destination.” (Surah Luqman, 14).

Mother’s milk is the nutrient that the baby can digest most easily. Even though it is a very rich nutritional drink, its digestion is very easy in accordance with the baby’s sensitive systems. So as the baby uses less energy to digest nutrients, it can use its energy for other bodily functions, growth and development of organs.

Mother’s milk, which is always ready with its ideal temperature, plays an important role in brain development with the sugars and fats it includes. Besides this, elements such as calcium  play a major role in the baby’s bone development. Even though this miraculous mixture is named as milk,  90% of mother’s milk is actually composed of water. This is also a very important aspect, because babies also need water as liquid as well as nutrients. Water and other foreign substances other than mother’s milk may not be so hygienic. However, the baby’s need of water is met with mother’s milk, 90% of which is water.

HAMLET Is the Most Effective Medicine Yet Produced in the World

1-    It kills a wide variety of tumor cells. However, it does not touch healthy and mature cells.

2-    It kills more than 40 tumor cells, even those very difficult to treat with medicines.

3-    It kills tumor cells with a natural and non-toxic mechanism. Therefore, it does not harm healthy tissues, in contrast to cancer medicines.

4-    It exists naturally in human milk and causes lower risk of cancer in children that feed with mother’s milk and in their mothers.

Almighty Allah, the All-Knowing, created mother’s milk and HAMLET, which is an important protein complex in this milk, as one of the strongest medicines. Our Lord’s name “Al-Shafi” (One Who gives health) is revealed in one verse as such:

“And when I am ill, it is He Who cures me;” (Surah ash-Shu'arah, 80)
 

Beyond all the miraculous systems in the body, the heart by itself is one of the finest examples of flawless creation. No similar artificial mechanism that “can keep someone alive” has thus far been  built, despite all the recent scientific advances. With the cells that comprise it, its special valve systems and the manner in which  the opening and closing of these valves is regulated, the heart is an organ with exceptionally complex and special systems. No other organ can do anything like the work it performs.
 

·   What happens in the event of an impairment in the functioning of this organ?

·   How can the heart repair itself following a heart attack?

·   What role does the thymosin beta-4 (TB4) molecule play in the heart’s self-repair?
 

Although it is only 22 days since its creation, a small collection of cells on the left side of the fetus begins to move. This collection of cells will never stop now, not for a very long time. It will never tire. It will beat approximately 70 times per minute, some 35 million times per year, and around two trillion times over the course of an average life span. It will pump some 227 million liters of blood over the course of a lifetime. It will tirelessly feed all the organs of the body through the network of blood vessels . The heart functions perfectly in every body because Allah so chooses, and everything it does is under our Lord’s control at every moment. Allah exhibits His artistry of detail in the human body and reveals this in a verse:
 

“Allah brought you out of your mothers’ wombs knowing nothing at all, and gave you hearing, sight and hearts so that perhaps you would show thanks.” (Surat an-Nahl, 78)
 

This organ, the foundation of life, also uses blood to nourish itself. However, in order to remind people of their weakness, our Lord may sometimes cause the vessels that feed the heart to narrow, using such natural causes as cholesterol (blood fats), other fats, calcium and combinations of other substances. This then leads to impaired circulation in the blood vessels (coronary arteries) that supply the heart, finally resulting in a heart defect. When the narrowing of the vessels turns into complete blockage over the course of time, the result is severe chest pain and a heart attack. This generally proves fatal, though some victims do survive. But their hearts still suffer damage from the attack.

Recent studies have once again shown Almighty Allah’s love for and mercy on His servants. Because a protein that the heart produces during the developmental stage in children enables the damaged heart to be repaired and increases the vessels supplying it.

The Healing Power of the Heart: Thymosin Beta-4

During a heart attack, heart cells die when the flow of blood to the heart is suddenly cut off, resulting in irreparable damage. This damage persists in the form of a decreased quality of life in the patient’s later life.

Until recently it used to be thought that, unlike other organs, the heart had no ability to repair itself. Today, however, we know that this damage can be put right by the body. The protein thymosin beta-4 (TB4), which plays a key role in the development of the heart in children, activates stem cells that are lie dormant  in the adult heart. These tiny proteins, known as thymosin, which comes in two forms in living tissue, α 1 and β 4, possess the ability to reprogram cells in the body. The protein is today administered in the form of a drug, and sends the stem cells a code regarding the repair of the heart. The heart thus heals itself without the need for other treatment. Administered in pharmaceutical  form, this protein improves heart performance by up to 25% by causing stem cells to turn into heart and artery cells. It repairs the damaged heart cells, increases the arteries supplying the heart and permits the muscles to repair themselves.

Allah, the Creator of All, Is Most Great

Events in our body that we are unaware of, and whose existence we have usually never even heard of, take place inside us with the greatest regularity. Our heartbeat, essential for our survival, is not something we initiate or maintain of our own will. Our heart is one of the organs miraculously created by our Lord. This organ begins beating as a collection of cells when a person is still in his mother’s womb, and continues to flawlessly discharge its duties until the end of that person’s life.

Research in recent years has revealed that in the event of a defect arising in this immaculately functioning organ, various proteins go into action to repair it. However, proteins themselves possess no such medical knowledge with which to identify defects developing in the heart, and lack the consciousness to save a person's life by taking such precautions. Yet they are present in everyone’s body and ready to serve the same function. A protein with such superior properties is neither the product of human intelligence nor of any supposed evolutionary process. It was created by Allah, He who bestows order, glory and perfection on all He creates. Allah is He Who meets the needs of all created things (Kafi), He Who enfolds them (Muhit) and Who is mighty enough to do all that He wishes, in the manner He wishes (Kadir). He is the only One to be thanked and praised (Hamid). He is the One who creates without previous models (Bedi). This is revealed in the following verse:
 

“the Originator of the heavens and earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, ‘Be!’ and it is.” (Surat al-Baqara, 117)
 

The heart is made up of special muscles that never tire. If your heart muscles were to tire in doing things that cause you fatigue, then you could never do such routine  day-to-day activities as cleaning, sport, climbing up stairs and the like. You would be exhausted before you even began. But apart from exceptional diseases, this never happens. Because Allah manifests His infinite mercy on His servants by bestowing tirelessness on the muscles of the heart. There is no doubt that this is one of the matchless works of our Lord, who knows all things down to the finest detail and Who manifests His omniscience in every detail. The omniscience of Allah is revealed in the following verse:
 

"... My Lord encompasses all things in His knowledge so will you not pay heed?” (Surat al-An’am, 80)
 

There is a highly systematic mechanism in the heart. That mechanism is essential for human life.  Otherwise, a single flaw arising in the system could spell the end of the life of the person concerned. The most important of the heart’s mechanisms is the pumps on its right and left. There are also auricles and ventricles on both sides of the heart. The small pumps on either side are the auricles, while the ventricles constitute the large pumps. The left side of the heart is occupied with clean blood. It is the task of the left auricle and ventricle to ensure that incoming blood reaches the organs and tissues. The right side of the heart is occupied with used (dirty) blood. The right auricle and ventricle send the blood to the lungs for cleaning.

The Heart Is An Immaculate Organ Created By Almighty Allah

It Pumps Blood with Ease:The heart is a piece of flesh the size of a fist composed  of water, fats and proteins. This piece of flesh possesses a more perfect and complex system than the most advanced technological pump that all the experts in the world could produce using their computers. This matchless piece of flesh is strong enough to cause blood to spout up to three  meters  in the air.

It Identifies Oxygen Requirements: The heart pumps as much blood as it calculates the body needs. This wondrous organ pumps just four to six  liters of blood per minute when the body is at rest. That is enough for the person at that time as the cells in the body do not require that much oxygen just then. But someone doing strenuous exercise needs more oxygen. Oxygen needs to be transmitted to the cells more quickly. The heart immediately identifies this need and begins beating faster. The amount of blood pumped by the heart increases by four to seven times during exercise.

It Supports Tiring Muscles: The heart never stops working, but sometimes it works even harder than usual. When one runs, the amount of blood pumped by the heart can rise to 2,270 liters an hour. It can raise its work rate from 70 beats per minute to 180 per minute in order to provide the oxygen our tiring muscles need. It can increase the amount of blood supplied to the tissues five-fold. When our other muscles engage in a tiring activity, the heart accelerates to support them.

It Coordinates the Auricles and Ventricles: The system in the heart has perfect timing. That is the result of co-ordination and communication among the cells that comprise the heart. The noteworthy thing here, of course, is the “intelligence” in the cells that act under the inspiration of Allah. The cells that make up the heart send a current to the other side of the heart at a speed of some 60 centimeters per second. The signal is sent from a region known as the S.A. node. The cells that make up the S.A. node produce the signal in just 1/14 of a second. There are cells that produce a second current here, known as the A.V. node. The current sets the two auricles into motion as it passes and causes them to contract in order to collect blood. When the electric current, that is still moving, reaches the ventricular muscles, special fibrous cells in the muscle tissue between the right auricle and the right ventricle halt it. This causes a delay in the current reaching the ventricle. The speed of the current falls to 20 centimeters per second and it begins being transmitted in 1/16 of a second. This delay is exceedingly important. Because of it, the auricles fill with blood before the ventricles contract, and are thus able to prepare themselves to pump blood. This is the secret of the synchronized action of the heart.

Pain is a vital part of the body’s defense system. This sense points that a condition has formed that may negatively affect the health of the body, institutes precautions against this and helps decrease the physical defects that may occur in the body. However, if a person is feeling pain in any condition, a precaution to eliminate the pain is taken and in this way the harm caused to the body is prevented. For example, a person whose hand is burned with hot water prevents his skin from being injured by pulling his hand away with the pain caused by burning; in the case of the pain being continued he takes protective precautions using medical methods. Or he can go to the doctor due to pain and the doctor may detect a disease that can cause serious troubles before the disease is fully developed.

Even though aches and the sense of pain are very disturbing feelings, if Almighty Allah had not given us this sense, the body would not react to situations like aches and pain and even greater health problems could form. The fact, which reminds that this feeling is in truth a great blessing, is a disease called “congenital analgesia ” defined as insensitivity to pain.

As Almighty Allah reveals in the verse “…It may be that you hate something when it is good for you and it may be that you love something when it is bad for you. Allah knows and you do not know.” (Surat al-Baqara, 216), the sense of pain, which seems like a bad thing and which most people find disturbing, is actually a great good for people contrary to popular belief.

Lack of a Sense of Pain is a Serious Disease

The disease of insensitivity to pain called “congenital analgesia” is the condition of not feeling physical pain that comes from external stimuli. These people do possess the senses of touch and sensation, but the brain and  nervous system distorts information flow in a way as if filtered, and prevents the body from reacting to situations such as temperature changes and injury. This situation is one of the best examples that Almighty Allah creates every system in our body with perfection.

A defect in the communication of the nervous system may cause serious problems. However, as in this disease a signal about pain is not communicated to the brain, pain is not felt and in some cases, the pain is felt, but the source of pain in the body cannot be detected. There is no doubt that both situations cause a great risk for the individual Bbecause it is as vital to detect the source of pain as it is  to feel the pain. For example, a person who is about to have a stroke, and feels sudden pain in his body but does not know the source of the pain, may befaced with a life-threatening situation, as medical care cannot be provided.

How Does Congenital Analgesia  Form?

This disease takes place as the result of a defect in the gene called “SCN9A”. Even the slightest defect in this gene could render it completely useless and prevent the signals transmitted to the brain from being interpreted correctly. This is similar to pushing an electric switch to light a lamp. If there is a defect in the switch that  activates the wires, which transfers electricity to the lamp, the lamp will not be turned on. Thus, a defect in the gene called “SCN9A” does not allow electrical signals transmitted from the outside world about pain to be correctly interpreted. Of course, this situation is an important evidence that Almighty Allah, Who creates everything with very sensitive balances, can destroy these balances and that no one could re-establish these. Almighty Allah reveals that He holds all things, small and large, in the world under His Might in one verse of the Qur’an as follows:
 

“Allah keeps a firm hold on the heavens and earth, preventing them from vanishing away. And if they vanished no one could then keep hold of them. Certainly He is Most Forbearing, Ever-Forgiving.” (Surah Fatir, 41)
 

Why Is It Dangerous Not To Feel the Sense of Pain?

There are three types of pain, called skin-deep pain, deep pain (bone, muscle, rib and knuckle pain) and visceral organ pain. Skin-deep pains occur when there is pressure applied to the skin, or when one confronts temperatures more than 45 degrees Celcius. If this feeling did not exist, a person may lose a lot of blood when his skin is cut as he did not feel any pain. In the same way, if the sense of pain were not formed when his skin is burned, he would not apply any cure as he continues with his daily tasks in spite of the burn on his skin. This would cause the upper skin that protects us from microbes to become more prone to infections and thus cause serious diseases.

In the case of not having any sense of pain, a person may harm oneself unintentionally or get hurt by not recognizing something that is harmful. For example, when a bone in his foot  is cracked after an accident, he may not realize this and continue walking on the cracked bone, and thus cause it to get fractured more, and this may even lead to permanent disabilities.

If pain did not warn us beforehand, many diseases may progress and cause serious results by getting progressively worse. Therefore, pain is the first and only indication of many diseases. For example, if our stomach did not hurt, we would not understand that we may have appendicitis, or if we did not feel a pain or pressure in our heart, we could not understand that we are about to have a stroke. If we did not feel pain, for instance when we fall down or lift something heavy, we would continue to force our knuckles or lower backs, forget to take a pause  and thereby increase the degree of damage.

Conclusion: Everything Has a Purpose of Creation and Wisdom

Almighty Allah creates everything for a reason and with goodness. The disease of not feeling any pain is also one of the best examples of this perfect creation; if Almighty Allah had not created such a disease, no one would know that pain is actually a great blessing for the protection of the body. Therefore, we would be unaware of a very important detail that would cause us to give thanks to our Lord Who makes us live in a flawless manner. The examples of Almighty Allah creating everything with goodness are, of course, not limited to these mentioned here. Our Lord makes this defect in the bodies of some people, and thus creates an important source of inspiration for the medical world of the future. As the scientists who study the causes of this disease understand the connections between warning and reaction, and the small details in these connections, they can produce medicines that can decrease pain in certain diseases or relieve pain in cases of bodily injury to a great extent.

Almighty Allah reveals in one verse of the Qur’an that everything He created has a purpose as such:
 

“We did not create heaven and earth and everything in between them as a game. If We had desired to have some amusement, We would have derived it from Our Presence, but We did not do that.”(Surat Al-Anbiya’,16–17)
 

·      Why does rain not fall in the form of a  mass like a waterfall but fall as single drops?

·      What is the shape and size of raindrops?

·      Why  does rain not heat up due to friction force and fall in the form of boiling water?

Every year, approximately 45 million cubic meters of water vaporize from the oceans. The vaporized water is turned into clouds and moved to the land via winds. So every year between three and four cubic meters of water moves from the oceans to the lands, meaning where we live.  Water,  which people cannot control the circulation of and cannot live without it, is sent specially. Also there are many wonders about the formation of water and its fall onto the ground. In the Qur’an, Allah reveals the erudite characteristics of the rain, which is one of the clearest signs that a person should be “thankful”, as such:

"Have you thought about the water that you drink? Is it you who sent it down from the clouds or are We the Sender? If We wished We could have made it bitter,so will you not give thanks?" (Surat al-Waqi‘a, 68-70)

It is Allah’s Mercy That Rain Falls Drop by Drop From the Clouds

One of the wonders Allah created in rain is that rain does not fall onto the ground in the form of a large water mass like waterfalls. If rain fell on the ground in this form, it would not be possible for people to continue their daily lives during rainy seasons and floods would form during every rainfall. These floods would drag away everything  in front of them and cause serious damage,  both material and spiritual. However, due to the laws of physics created by our Almighty Lord, it falls on the ground in drops and by decreasing its speed  turns into the precious water that is the source of life for all beings.

The reason that rain falls in drops is that water droplets are formed inside clouds. As  is known, a cloud is formed by water vapor being thickened with dust and electrically positive charged particles. The diameter of these particles are generally between one and ten microns. (1 micron = 0.001 millimeters.) When clouds move upwards at a certain speed (1-10 meters/sec), they take water droplets with them naturally. As the water droplets rise up, they get bigger as their volume increases. Two or more droplets unite and form a rain drop. The air can no longer carry these drops and the rain drops begin to fall to the ground.

Since big drops fall faster than small drops until they reach a fixed speed, big drops and small drops crash and unite. Drops, which get bigger through crashing and uniting, encounter air resistance which distorts the shape of the water drop, spreads and turns into many small droplets in a short time, something on the order of   six hundreths  of a second. Since the speeds of drops of the same size are the same, and they move in the same direction, they do not crash with one another.

Raindrops Slow Down When Falling On the Ground by Our Lord’s Inspiration

One of the wonders our Almighty Lord created in raindrops is certainly the falling speed of rain. When an object of the same size and weight as a raindrop is left from a height of 1,200 meters, it would get faster gradually and fall on the ground with a speed of almost 558 kilometers per hour. If the raindrop would fall from this height in the same way, this time all crops would be destroyed, places of settlement, houses and cars would be damaged and people would not be able to walk without taking  necessary precautions. However, such an incident never occurs; no matter how high a distance raindrops fall from, when they reach the ground their speeds are only eight to ten  kilometers  per hour. The reason for this is that the raindrop has a shape that increases the frictional force of the atmosphere and makes it fall slower. If the raindrop had another shape, or if the atmosphere had no friction force, it would be enough to take a look at these numbers to see the disasters the world would face every time it rained.

As it is seen, Allah defines the falling speed of rain and makes rain beneficial for all beings:

"And We sent down blessed water from the sky  and made gardens grow by it and grain for harvesting" (Surah Qaf, 9)

Rain Not Being Hot is Allah’s Mercy Over His Servants

If rain drops got heated owing to the effect of friction force and fell on earth in the form of boiling water, life would never happen. However, rainwater is cold to maintain life due to our Lord’s knowledge and mercy for His servants.

As it was told previously, after rainwater is separated from the cloud it speeds as it falls down. As raindrops fall down with the effect of gravity due to their weight, the air’s resistance tries to hold it up at the same time. The droplet speeds up until the air resistance is equal to the force of gravity that affects the drop. The speed when they are equal is the terminal speed, and the droplet continues its journey down at this fixed speed. When the droplet goes down, it becomes heated  due to friction. However, this temperature is used for the vaporization of the droplet. Vaporization causes cooling on the surface of the droplet. Thus, a droplet gets smaller as it falls down, but it does not get hot. Therefore, the droplet is not hot and it does not rain scalding hot water from the skies.

Almighty Allah reveals that He controls the rain and turns it into a life source for people and all living things in one verse:

"It is He who sends down water from the sky. From it you drink and from it come the shrubs among which you graze your herds." (Surat an-Nahl, 10)

Fertilizing Feature of the Rain

Rain is an important fertilizer. Even poor soil can gather all the elements plants need within a century, even through fertilizers that come via the rain. Forests also grow and feed with the help of these sea-origin aerosols. In this way, 150 million tons of fertilizers fall on earth’s surface every year. Without this natural process of fertilization, there would be very little flora on earth and the balance of life would be distorted.

It is a great blessing of our Almighty Lord that He sends a certain amount of water down from the sky, that this water has is drinkable  and can revive a dead region. In one verse, our Lord’s knowledge of creation is revealed as such

"Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the sky and threads it through the earth to emerge as springs and then by it brings forth crops of varying colors, which then wither and you see them turning yellow and then He makes them into broken stubble? There is a reminder in that for people of intelligence." (Surat az-Zumar, 21)

The source of rainwater is vaporization and 97% of vaporization occurs in “salty” waters. However, rainwater is sweet. The reason that rainwater is sweet is another law that Allah sets. According to this law, water does not carry any other foreign substance no matter if it is vaporized from saline seas, mineral lakes or mud flats. As it is revealed in the verse, "We send down from heaven pure water..." (Surat al-Furqan, 48), it falls on the ground in a clear and clean form.

Clouds That Form the Rains Are the Examples of Allah’s Art of Variety:

In the Qur’an, verses about the clouds, which have great importance in the formation of rain, give information about the variety in Allah’s creation as well:

"It is Allah Who sends the winds which stir up clouds which He spreads about the sky however He wills. He forms them into dark clumps and you see the rain come pouring out from the middle of them. When He makes it fall on those of His slaves He wills, they rejoice," (Surat ar-Rum, 48)

Compared to animals, plants may be seen as silent and motionless beings. However, this silence should not be thought of  as a deficiency of biological functions. Plants are capable of  very surprising behaviors, take special precautions to maintain their lives and have a variety of methods to continue their lineage by the special abilities bestowed on them by Allah.

Interesting Plants Created With Special Precautions to Adapt to Their Environment

The Most Resistant Plant in the World:  Welwitschia Mirabilis

This plant that dwells in desert environments in Namibia is created with qualities very adaptive to conditions of drought. The stem of this plant, which consists of two leaves, a strong stem and a root, both gets longer and wider and reaches a height of two meters and a width of eight meters. This plant, which draws even the slightest moisture inside it through this stem, can live for five years with no rain.

A Reviving Plant: Elaginella lepidophylla

The Selaginella lepidophylla also known as “Erica’s rose” is also a desert plant. The interesting thing about this plant is that it can live with almost no water. This plant completely dries during times of drought and turns into a ball by tucking in its branches and leaves. However, when rains begin, it revives again by opening its branches and leaves and starts all of its vital functions again.

Plant That Looks Like a Baseball: Euphorbia obese

Even though the orb shape of this cactus species known as "euphorbia obese" makes it  look like a baseball it is known for having  the least amount of surface area, and it stores the greatest amount of water. The plant decreases water loss to a minimum and adapts to desert conditions with its thick trunk and orb-like shape. The poisonous juice of the plant is an effective substance that protects it from other beings.

This plant, which is shaped with a tiny deep greened hunch and decorated with eight tubes, is green like many other species of cactus, but it also has a very decorative appearance with its red and purple sections and the small flowers at the top. This plant is one of the best examples of Allah’s name, Al-Muzayyin (The Adorner).

As with all beings on earth, there is no doubt that Allah is the One Who places the necessary information inside the plants discussed here  to adapt to their environments, creates all things and knows about all sorts of creation. Allah reveals this truth in one verse:

“Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the sky and then in the morning the earth is covered in green? Allah is All-Subtle, All-Aware.” (Surat al-Hajj, 63)

Plants That Develop Interesting Methods to Continue Their Lineage

The Biggest Flower of the World: Rafflesia Arnoldii

The flower of this plant, which is created for the climate conditions of rain forests, has a diameter of 90 centimeters and a weight of between seven to eleven  kilograms. This biggest flower of the world draws insects to itself with the scent it secretes for the three to seven  days  that it stays alive. This plant, which blossoms only once in nine months, draws almost every insect to itself, spreads its pollens and continues its lineage in this way.

A Plant That Smells Like Ammonia: Amorphophallus Titanum

Amorphophallus titanum, which is taller than a man, is named as “titan arum” (carrion flower). Even though this plant, which has the tallest flower in the world, appears very elegant, it begins to spread a sharp smelling ammonia gas (NH3). The last structure of the plant is as interesting as the smell it spreads. The section, where the pollens are, is at the bottom of the leafy structure and it cannot be seen from outside. Therefore, spreading smells is not enough to attract insects’ attention. When pollens are ready to be fertilized, the flower warms the outer part of the flower with its smell. So the warming and smell, which takes place only during the morning times and within a day, is very attractive for insects. Scientists, who try to find an answer to the question of how this heat and smell appears, found that as a result of the acceleration in the plant’s metabolism, a special acid came into being. This substance called “glutanamic acid” is broken down  chemically  and spreads heat and odors. Thanks to this, insects come to the flower. However, this is not enough for insects. Because the pollen dust of amoorphophallus titanium is inside specialized sacs closed at the bottom, the flower is prepared for this. Due to its greased outer surface, insects fall into the flower and cannot climb up from the slippery walls. There is a sweet fluid produced by the flower’s female organs in this section. In addition, the pollen sacs open up at night, and the insects within are covered with these. Insects stay inside the flower all night long. In the morning, the thorns on the flower grow and act like a staircase for insects to climb up. Insects that climb up the staircase enter into another flower together with their pollen stock in order to accomplish their tasks as long as they are free.

As it is seen in these examples, Allah shows us His unique artistry in everything He creates and wants us to think about these things. This is told in many verses of the Qur’an:

“In the earth there are diverse regions side by side and gardens of grapes and cultivated fields, and palm-trees sharing one root and others with individual roots, all watered with the same water. And We make some things better to eat than others. There are Signs in that for people who use their intellect.” (Surat ar-Ra‘d, 4)

Plants That Visibly Move Really Fast

Mimosa púdica

Mimosa pudica (pudica means "shy") has many different qualities from other plants. When it is touched or swung, the leaves unite and close. So the plant becomes “shy”, as it were. In one or two minutes, they re-open. The reason of the quick movement of this plant, which is common in South America and Central America, is its defense system. When the leaves of this plant are touched, leaves lean against the body together with the stem within a couple of seconds. If the disturbance on the plant continues, this time the mimosa makes a second move downwards and reveals the sharp thorns on its body. This is enough to scare off insects or predators. The mechanism that makes this movement begins with electrical currents. This current is just like the current that passes through the nervous system of the human body, though the reactions of the plant are not as fast as  ours. Also, electrical signals transmitted through channels that carry the plant’s fluid travel a distance of 30 centimeters in one or two seconds. The higher the temperature, the faster the reaction is. The bottom of the leaf is swollen (where it is united with the plant’s stem). The cells here are filled with water. When the message reaches here, the bottom half of the swell in the leaf’s bottom suddenly lets go of its water and at the same time, the  upper half takes this water inside and the leaf falls down. So as the message goes along the stems, the leaves close one after the other like dominoes. Following such a defensive movement, 20 minutes need to pass for the plant to re-fill its cells and open its leaves.

Plant Dancing With Sunlight: Desmodium gyransans

This plant known as the telegraph plant is one of the plant species that have sudden movement ability. The plant’s small lateral leaflets begin to pivot and make irregular movements under the slightest contact, sunlight, heat or vibration. During the night, its leaves flag down. The plant, the movements of which look like the Morse code  system, and which take its name from these movements, moves with the swelling and shrinkage of motor cells in special organs buried deep inside the leaves. The movement of water molecules causes this swelling and shrinkage of the motor cells in the leaves. And plant leaves make a twitching  movement when water enters in and goes out.

As it is seen, moving plants continue their existence with special systems created by Allah, as do all things that move. So they are under His control:

“Everything in the heavens and everything in the earth belongs to Him. Allah is the Rich Beyond Need, the Praiseworthy.” (Surat al-Hajj, 64)

Plants That Attract Attention With Interesting Shapes and Long Lives

Baobab Tree: Papaw

This tree, which resembles a bottle with its body that is wide at the bottom and narrow at the tops and which lives in Madagascar, can in many ways be compared  to a bottle with the 300 liters of water it stores. This plant, which is resistant to both heat and drought, can live  as long as 500 years.

Dracaena cinnabari

The most interesting quality of this plant, which lives for about 950 years, is their red fluid seeping from the body when it is injured. Another quality that this red fluid has it that it contains  iron, just as in human beings and animals.

Allah is the One Who plans every quality these plants possess and Who created these plants as He did everything in the universe. This truth is revealed in the Qur’an:

 “The trees all bow down in prostration.“ (Surat ar-Rahman Suresi, 6)

Plants With Interesting Qualities Are Examples of Allah’s Flawless Creation

Plants are special beings, which show the infinite knowledge, art, mercy and compassion of Allah Who created them with the photosynthesis systems that turn light into food, mechanisms that continuously produce energy and oxygen, cleans  nature and balances the ecology as well as aesthetic features such as taste, smell and color.

Only 10,000 species of plants, which have unique systems for many special benefits, were examined up to now and as a result of these studies, it was found that every plant has characteristics that would amaze people.

For those who want to know Allah, witness His attributes, and get closer to Him, it would be very beneficial to look more closely  at the miracles of creation in plants and even in a single leaf and thus know that their world is full of miracles. Believers can thus see the miracles Allah creates with the mind and reason Allah gave to them. A person who learns to look with an eye of reason and wisdom, would learn.

A person who learns to look at his surroundings with reason and wisdom will also learn all the systems that make the plant unique  as well as the artistry in the plant’s color, shape and smell and closely witness Allah’s superior knowledge and might. Allah reveals His control over and creation of beings in one verse as such:

“That is Allah, your Lord. There is no god but Him, the Creator of everything. So worship Him. He is responsible for everything.” (Surat al-An’am, 102)

Plants are very impressive with their interesting shapes and life qualities. They form an exquisite beauty and variety with their interesting flowers, different shapes and the fact that they move in a visible way. These plants are only some of the examples of the perfection and glory in Allah’s Creation. Allah reveals that there are signs in the creation of both man and other beings and of His Existence, as such:

"And in your creation and all the creatures He has spread about there are Signs for people with certainty." (Surat al-Jathiyya, 4)

Plants, which have special abilities and characteristics since the first moment they were created, take inspiration only from Allah Who created them. He is the One Who gives them food, creates water for the maintenance of their life and grants interesting qualities and different designs to them. There is no doubt that all of these occur with His command to “Be”. For Allah Who creates all worlds, creating unique creatures is of course by His Will:

“It is Allah who created the seven heavens and of the earth the same number,the Command descending down through all of them,so that you might know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah encompasses all things in His knowledge.” (Surat at-Talaq, 12)

·      How does the solar energy system of wasps work?

·      What is the secret of wasps’ computer system that works faster than the direction finding  computers people use?

·      What is the special system which wasps have to reach the nectar in flowers speedily?

Bees, which are a large family composed of twenty thousand species, are among the beings that have the most striking knowledge of engineering and architecture, posess social lives  which are quite different from many other animals and that leave the scientists who examine them in astonishment at their communication skills. Bees have great technological knowledge as well as their honey-making ability, which is one of their most well-known  and miraculous abilities. Bees behave according to Allah’s inspiration, just like all other beings on earth. Allah Who created everything reveals His sovereignty over living things in Surah Hud as such:

“... There is no creature He does not hold by the forelock. My Lord is on a Straight Path.“ (Surah Hud, 56)

Wasps That Collect and Use Solar Energy

The “Eastern Wasp” (Vespa orientalis), which is a bee species living in the region between the Near East and India, is most active in the hottest hours of the day in comparison to other insect species that are more active in the morning. This is because this bee species sets up their nests under the ground and collects the rays from the Sun thanks to a special structure in its stomach, and they use this as an energy stock through a pigment created by Almighty Allah. The answers to the questions that scientists have been pondering for a long time as to the function of the yellow bands on their  abdomens, and why their active hours are so very different from their relatives, are hidden in this structure.

Almighty Allah Created the Body Structure of Wasps in Compliance with Collecting Solar Energy

Allah, the Lord of the worlds, created the brown section of the hard caticula layer of the outer skeleton that surrenders the body of this bee species out of hard riffles with a  height of 160 nanometers. The structure of the section, where the yellow band is, is more different. Here an oval shaped ledge at a height of 50 nanometers is interlocked with another one. This structure prevents the reflection of sun light and obtains energy by capturing light in this region.

Another characteristic Almighty Allah created for these beings to collect solar energy is  their pigment cells. The melanin pigment inside the cuticula is brown, while the xanthopterin pigment is yellow. This yellow pigment turns the light into electrical energy and functions as a worker that harvests light.

When one contemplates these facts  in the light of this information, a very important conclusion is arrived at. This bee species did not gain the ability to collect solar energy using its own will or by coincidence. Knowing that the hottest hours of the day are at noon is not something bees could ascertain. All of the knowledge bees have is inspired by Almighty Allah. In one verse, this truth is revealed as such:

“He is Allah – the Creator, the Maker, the Giver of Form. To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names.Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies Him.He is the Almighty, the All-Wise.” (Surat al-Hashr, 24)

Bees That Solve Problems Faster Than Computers

Computers are used in many areas of daily life, mainly in communication, gathering data, engineering and research. Today computers are used in the solving of many problems. The help of computers are resorted to  in order to find the shortest way in terms of time and distance. Computers compare the length of possible routes and choose the shortest one for solving this complicated mathematical problem. However, they can never do it in a rapid fashion. But bees, which have a brain as tiny as a grass seed, can find the shortest route without the help of any devices . This is because bees looking for food solve the problem of finding the shortest way in the shortest time, which computers find difficult to solve, every day routinely. Every day, bees travel around the flowers found in many different regions; they must use lots of energy to fly and for this reason they find a route that will keep their flight to a minimum. For this they first discover the location of flowers. Then, they immediately learn to fly on the best route in order to save energy and time. So, how do bees’ tiny brains solve this problem of finding this perfect short way, in comparison to people’s technological assistants depending on traffic flow, internet knowledge and road computers? The answer of this question is again the same. Our Almighty Lord created all beings with His infinite might and knowledge and bestowed the most appropriate features for their environments. In one verse it is revealed as such:

 “The Originator of the heavens and earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, ‘Be!’ and it is.” (Surat al-Baqara, 117)

Bees That Have Ultraviolet Vision

When bees fly into a garden, they see  flowers very differently than people do. This is because they detect ultraviolet light as an additional color and when they look at flowers, they see different patterns than people do. These patterns are not formed randomly. Our Almighty Lord has created different patterns on every flower specially. The characteristic of these patterns is to direct the bees to where the nectar is, just like the lines on an  airport runway. In this way, bees can reach the flowers’ nectar rapidly.

There is a very important connection between flowers and bees. Both creatures act according to Allah’s inspiration and so attract one another. For example, flowers that need to be fertilized by bees secrete the nectar that will attract the bees. Allah bestowed on flowers the characteristics that will attract bees with their scents and vibrant colors. But the characteristics Allah bestowed on flowers are not limited to these; this is because flowers also have lines that help the bees reach the nectar easily.

This relationship between bees and flowers is very important in terms of human beings. This is because beekeeping is very important for agricultural purposes. Many fruit trees and flowers are fertilized through bees. Therefore, some specialists recognize this support provided by  bees as a contribution far more important than honey production. When this information is considered, one immediately thinks about the verses about the honeybee in Surat an-Nahl. Allah draws attention that bees eat from all fruits in these verses:

“Your Lord revealed to the bees: ‘Build dwellings in the mountains and the trees, and also in the structures which men erect. Then eat from every kind of fruit and travel the paths of your Lord, which have been made easy for you to follow.’ From inside them comes a drink of varying colours, containing healing for mankind. There is certainly a Sign in that for people who reflect.” (Surat an-Nahl, 68-69)

Bees Act With Allah’s Inspiration Just Like All Other Creatures

The  perfect systems in bees and abilities such as rational behavior, calculation, planning, construction and technological knowledge clearly prove that it is impossible for a bee to be formed and maintain its existence through coincidences. Therefore, evolutionists’ theories of coincidence have no validity. This is because even these examples given in this article show that bees are created all at once, and with the systems they possess. Allah created bees with superior qualities, just like all other living things. And He granted bees technological abilities to produce honey in amounts more than they need and gave them to the service of human beings. So these characteristics show one truth: Allah is the One Who grants these features and amazing abilities to the bees.  Allah shows us His infinite knowledge and matchless creation just as in all other beings. For a person who witnesses this creation, the only thing to do is to praise our Lord and surrender to Him. In one verse, He reveals the importance of evidences of creation as follows:

“And in your creation and all the creatures He has spread about there are Signs for people with certainty.” (Surat al-Jathiyya, 4)

What is the Reason That Bees Visit the Same Flower Species When Collecting Nectar?

An interesting situation that will attract notice is  bees that collect honey in a field full of different flowers are watched for a little while. Bees come and go between a single flower species at a time. When they fly from one flower to another, they do not even pay attention to other flower species.

This action of bees that visit the same flowers, sometimes for days, is beneficial for both them and the flowers. We can explain this situation as such: A bee that lands on a flower for the first time may have to work for a very long time to find a single drop of nectar, when it does not know the structure of the flower. The bee gains speed and skill only after it visits the same flower for the fifth or the sixth time, and it begins to save time as it can reach its target easily.

This situation is beneficial for flowers because as bees prefer one species of flower, a speedy and safe fertilization is ensured. This is because a flower’s pollen cannot fertilize other flowers, and the flower can only be fertilized by the travels taken by bees among the same flowers. Bees use scents to find the same species of flowers.

Bees mark the flowers, which they visited for once or collected nectar or pollens, by leaving a scent. So the bees that come after them do not lose time and energy for no reason.

The Flawless System in the Bees’ Body Structures

There is a matchless creation in the bees’ body structures. Every organ of the bee is created specially to carry out its current tasks. For example, the skeleton of the bee is very strong. Its respiratory system has a structure that will provide more nutrients for the tissues by using the air better. The muscle structure has different qualities in every area of the body according to different needs. For example, there is no outer membrane, which is found in other muscles, on its wing muscles to provide more oxygen. In the same way, the olfactory and taste  systems are also created according to the bee’s task of collecting flowers. All of the perfect bodily structures of bees are only one of the many evidences of Allah’s matchless art of creation and infinite wisdom. Allah reveals that He encompasses all things with His wisdom in one verse:

 “Your god is Allah alone, there is no god but Him. He encompasses all things in His knowledge.’” (Surah Ta Ha, 98)

Examples of Bees’ Other Miraculous Creation Characteristics

Bacteria are a group of living organisms  that reproduce fast, compared to plants and animals, and have great importance for balancing the world of living things in terms of their biochemical traits. They can live almost anywhere. Therefore, their population is greater than any other organism. The most important fact of all is that they have important effects on vital matters such as climate due to their dense population.

The bacteria community that affects human life in a number of ways has many amazing characteristics. The communication system they use is one of these. These beings, which use sonar-like systems to see their enemies and food, use “conversation balloons” to communicate with one another. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) discovered that the communication among bacteria has a quality that protects the balance of the whole world.

Bacteria Communication That Affect the Earth’s Climate Begins In the Oceans

Small sea plants (phytoplankton) are eaten by zooplankton, which are small sea creatures. These particles are sticky and they form heavier particles by coming together. Bacteria unite over these tiny carbon-rich pieces and move towards the depth together with these pieces. This may seem like a very ordinary situation. However, this small movement has an amazing aspect.

Bacteria, which have no mouth and ears, send forth chemical signals to find out whether there are other neighboring bacteria around them. If there are adequate bacteria neighbors nearby, carbon molecules inside these particles come together to secrete an enzyme that breaks these molecules into smaller particles. The type of carbon inside the particles is the same carbon dioxide is found in the atmosphere, so it is a greenhouse gas, which is a temperature trap. This communication among bacteria is created in a way that this poisonous gas will be released to the depths of the ocean. This system does not exist in shallow depths.

This poisonous gas that can easily mix into the atmosphere from  shallow waters is carried to the depths with a planned communication system and thus prevents it from reaching the atmosphere.

In other words, millions of bacteria, which we cannot see with the naked eye work for us devotedly.

It has been known for many years that bacteria have a very important place in the carbon cycle that has such vital importance for life on earth. However, this new discovery proves to us once again that the earth has a perfect creation, which is constantly maintained with very comprehensive, fine and detailed adjustments. Thus all the details in front of us are created in perfect harmony with one another and this balance has not been disrupted for millions of years. Allah revealed in the Qur’an as follows:

“In the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and day, and the ships which sail the seas to people’s benefit, and the water which Allah sends down from the sky – by which He brings the earth to life when it was dead and scatters about in it creatures of every kind – and the varying direction of the winds, and the clouds subservient between heaven and earth, there are Signs for people who use their intellect.” (Surat al-Baqara, 164)

Allah’s Order is Flawless

-  Even if you fulfill all the conditions necessary for life on earth artificially;

-  Even if you can imitate the earth, from the atmosphere to the number of bugs in the ecosystem, all living species, orbiter and the sun with all of its properties;

-  Even if you put an equal number of plankton, diatoms and bacteria as the ones on earth inside this artificial environment, the end this artificial world will face is inevitable.

Even if there were an equal number of bacteria, when there is no communication among those bacteria, then the artificial environment you have produced would turn into a deadly gas chamber instead of a planet full of life. All life would be destroyed in a very short time by suffocating in this poisonous carbon gas.

When any of the balances on our earth are changed, this scenario would always be the same. However, we can talk about life on earth, only by virtue of having all of these balances and fine calculations at the same time.

Breathing, being able to eat, drink, run and walk now is a proof that not even one of these millions of balances has ever been disrupted even for a single moment and continues unceasingly.

All of these qualities point to a perfect creation. The complex system mentioned above is only a few of the evidences of Almighty Allah’s infinite might and superior creation. In one verse, our Lord’s knowledge and might is revealed as such:

"Say: ‘Travel about the earth and see how He brought creation out of nothing. Then later Allah will bring about the next existence. Allah has power over all things." (Surat al-‘Ankabut, 20) 

Allah’s Knowledge of Creation Manifests at Every Spot of the Universe

There are evidences as to Almighty Allah’s superior creation at every corner of the universe. This complex system in bacteria that we cannot see with the naked eye is one of the most crucial examples of this. Our Lord manifests in these micro beings and inspires to them the ability to act with a superior consciousness and perfect intelligence. A bacterium is able to detect developments, which people cannot realize or even guess beforehand, by the inspiration of Almighty Allah and acts more daringly. It is not possible to explain such flawless details in living beings as a matter of coincidence as evolutionists claim. This is because it is impossible to explain that “the first bacterium” formed coincidentally.

It is a very far-fetched approach to claim that when there was no sign of life, a bacterium was affected by the conditions in an uncontrolled environment, began to breathe suddenly, went through certain changes coincidentally and gained its  miraculous features and current complex qualities.

Science and technology, which advance more with every passing day, discovered the miraculous qualities of bacteria and proves how enormous a lie the theory of evolution is. Every quality we face in these beings proves how perfect the art of Allah is in beings that cannot be seen with the naked eye and makes us think about these.

Allah ,Who is the Owner of the skies and earth, created the sky, the earth and everything in between perfectly with a unique creation; inspired every being to its duty and made His miracles a verse and mercy for believers. Our Lord’s flawless knowledge of creation is revealed in the verses as such:

“He who created the seven heavens in layers.You will not find any flaw in the creation of the All-Merciful. Look again – do you see any gaps? Then look again and again. Your sight will return to you dazzled and exhausted!” (Surat al-Mulk, 3-4)

All Behavior of Bacteria Is Controlled by Our Lord

What bacteria want is to maintain their existence with the means they possess. While these microscopic beings continue their lineage with this perfect balance Allah created, they also have vital importance for us “in many ways”. A bacteria producing nutrients, moreover making the nutrient it produced beneficial for man, imprisoning poisonous gases, and causing various cycles show how essential and flawless this balance is. There is no doubt that bacteria could just as easily live inside our food, take its energy from there and greatly harm us . We may not even be aware of these bacteria, which are part of our life, throughout our lives. However, Allah created very flawless and detailed systems for us to see the evidence of His superior and unique intelligence. This is the purpose of the benefit bacteria provides.

No doubt, we cannot accept that a unicellular being can act with consciousness and rationale. Allah is the One Who inspires bacteria to act consciously and make calculations, Who has knowledge over all knowledge and Who has the most superior intelligence over all else. In one verse, it is revealed as such:

“In the alternation of night and day and what Allah has created in the heavens and the earth there are Signs for people who have faith.” (Surah Yunus, 6)
 

   What is a cloak of invisibility?

How does invisibility come about?

What physical laws does the shark use to cloak itself in invisibility?

Thanks to recent technological research, optical invisibility, which we encounter in various science fiction books and films, is moving away from being just a fantastic concept and has begun becoming a reality. This property, which used to be thought of as a dream, is now coming true under the laws of physics. As we know, an object being visible depends on that object reflecting the light falling on itbecause “seeing” or “perception” is a process that takes place when electromagnetic waves emitted from, or striking an object, return to the receptors in the eye. On the basis of that fundamental reality, scientists began collecting the necessary data for invisibility. The physical law to be applied in order to realize invisibility is to prevent an object from giving off electromagnetic waves, waves colliding or colliding waves being given off haphazardly. Objects can be made invisible thanks to a special material that covers it. Indeed, scientists have established a cloak that can bestow invisibility by means of a newly developed meta-material technology.

The Cloak of Invisibility Acts in Line with Physical Laws

The cloak of invisibility emerges when a metal cylinder is placed between donor and receptor and prevents the receptor seeing electromagnetic waves, thus resulting in invisibility. In order to produce this property, the object desired to be hidden is covered with specially developed meta-materials, and this makes it invisible within specific electromagnetic waves. One would normally expect waves striking a metal surface to be radiated around it, and even to leave a shadow behind it. Yet thanks to the cloak woven by using meta-materials around the metal cylinder, the electromagnetic waves continue on their way uninterrupted. Thanks to such a system, it becomes impossible to perceive electromagnetic waves from outside and thus detect the metal cylinder. Yet under the inspiration of our Lord Allah, one species of shark has been using the cloak of invisibility described here, which currently exists only under controlled laboratory conditions and is displayed in scientific exhibitions, since the day it was first created. Like many scientific discoveries, the property of invisibility that inspires the scientific world is just one of the proofs of our Lord’s creation. Allah, Lord of the Worlds, reveals in a verse that He is the creator of the entire universe and that everything comes into existence by His telling it to “Be!”
 

"Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything between them,the Almighty, the Endlessly Forgiving.” (Surah Sad, 66)

The Cloak of Invisibility of the Lantern Shark, a Source of Inspiration to the Scientific World

The “dense scale lantern shark,” a quite small member of the shark family at an average of just 30 to50 centimeters in length, possesses a cloak of invisibility that has for a long time been the subject of research by scientists. The shark lives in the waters to the south of Japan, and by reflecting heat through its scales it loses brightness in the depths of the ocean and literally becomes “invisible.” Scientists believe that the shark’s property of invisibility is the result of a light-emitting organ they refer to as the photophore, and that this organ is controlled by way of nerves and hormones. This light absorbing organ converts chemical energy into light energy, thus making it blend in with the light around it, and therefore invisible. It has also been established that a region in the shark’s abdominal cavity also contributes to its invisibility and makes the shark invisible from below. The shark did not, of course, come by this property by chance or by using its own intelligence. It is of course impossible for any living thing with no intelligence or consciousness to discover the cloak of invisibility that scientists have discovered through lengthy experiments and research, and that is still at the experimental stage. Almighty Allah has created these living things with the characteristics they require. Invisibility is an essential property in order for these animals that live at the sea bottom to survive. Our Lord reveals His love for and mercy on living things in this verse:
 

“Allah is the Creator of everything and He is Guardian over everything.” (Surat az-Zumar, 62)

The Superior Characteristics That Invisibility Bestows on the Shark

Through the physical properties bestowed on them by Almighty Allah, all living things in nature live in the greatest harmony with their surroundings. The lantern shark’s invisibility bestows on it the superior features the animal needs:

Thanks to its invisibility, it enjoys perfect camouflage, and it is therefore undetectable by its prey. And that means it can catch its prey very easily.

And again because of that property of invisibility it is not easily caught by larger predators.

It has been established that the shark can emit light from nine separate regions of its body. The other regions are its pectoral fins, the sides of the body and the tail, the brightest part of the fish, especially during the reproductive period.

Allah Is He Who Possesses Infinite Knowledge and Wisdom

Scientists are working in order to be able to apply invisibility on a wide basis because such research will present enormous advantages in the field of medicine in particular, in the military sphere, in civil engineering, in communications and for many other scientific and technical purposes. However, in order for designers to be able to produce materials with invisibility  they are investigating the shark’s property of invisibility, as well as conducting scientific experiments, and trying to obtain clues regarding the animal’s superior features. They are astounded by its light emitting property, an example of a sublime creation, and are trying to manufacture meta-materials to bestow invisibility, and are engaged in complex engineering calculations and designs. But all their research to date has remained limited, and they have been unable to fully replicate the natural properties possessed by these life forms because they also possess the feature of sometimes emitting light and being invisible, while acquiring bright light at other times, and this is dependent entirely upon their requirements at that particular moment.

It is impossible for a living thing with no mind or consciousness to think about and know all these physical laws. It is obvious that this property possessed by lantern sharks is just one instance of His Omniscience that Allah manifests in these animals. Our Lord reveals this about His creative artistry in another verse:
 

“Allah created every animal from water. Some of them go on their bellies, some of them on two legs, and some on four. Allah creates whatever He wills. Allah has power over all things.” (Surat an-Nur, 45)
 

The perfect structures possessed by all living things, as in the example of the shark, reveal our Lord’s sublime creative artistry. The shark’s property of invisibility is just one piece of evidence that Almighty Allah has created all things, living or inanimate, in a perfect manner and with the finest details.

The sharks’ property of invisibility was created in the most appropriate form for this animal so that it can hunt and protect itself. Scientists have managed to obtain a cloak of invisibility after many years of research, and employing logic and reason at every stage. These scientific discoveries are still not complete, and only once the deficiencies have been rectified may they perhaps come to possess a perfect design. Yet this matchless property, which lantern sharks have possessed since they were first created is the work of the Omniscience and infinite mind of Allah. Our Lord’s sublime knowledge is described in the following verse:

“And in your creation and all the creatures He has spread about there are Signs for people with certainty.” (Surat al-Jathiyah, 4)

The shark’s property of invisibility shows that there are many examples for human beings in nature and living things. Allah has created all these for us to reflect on and learn from. The Qur’an tells us that:

“In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day, there are Signs for people with intelligence:

In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day, there are Signs for people with intelligence:

Those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth: ‘Our Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to You! So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire.” (Surat al-‘Imran, 190-191)

The Cloak of Invisibility Will Be Widely Used in the Technology of the Future:

It may be applied in the field of civil engineering: Medical devices cloaked in this way, such as metallic implants and pacemakers, will be able to enter MR scanners using this technology and will also be able to pass safely through security scanners in places such as shopping malls and airports.

It may have a broad sphere of applications in the field of communications:With this technology it will be possible to direct telephone signals with the minimum amount of interference.

Geographic obstructions typically interfering with signals absorb electromagnetic waves. But thanks to wave-directing cloaking techniques, waves carrying information will be able to be transmitted in the desired direction and with relatively less signal loss.

It may be widely used in medicine: The hand of the surgeon being invisible during surgery will make it much easier to perform operations since it will allow the area behind the hand to be visualized with full clarity.
 

One of the primary features of the waves that form in the oceans is that everything they drag away from the shore is eventually returned to the shore by another wave, and this process continues wave after wave. That is why it is impossible for human beings to swim in these giant waves or even stand upright when they strike the shore. A certain resistance is essential in order to resist this effect of waves. Flat sea urchins, a species of sea urchins living in the oceans, are one of those life forms with this glorious resistance to the push and pull power of waves. Flat sea urchins have been perfectly created in such a way as to overcome the lifting effect caused by pressure differences and to neutralize the drag force set up by powerful currents.

Almighty Allah has created sea urchins in different shapes and sizes. Sea urchins are generally spherical, but some are flat, long and thin. This is an example of the enormous variety of Almighty Allah’s creative artistry. Sand dollars, a type of sea urchin that live along the ocean shores in Western India and Northwest America are flat, resembling metal coins in appearance, and cover wide areas of the sea bed. Their most significant feature is the amazing resistance they exhibit to the giant ocean waves and currents on the sea floor. Some of these creatures bury themselves two to ten millimeters down, or even at depths of twenty to thirty millimeters in the area where the ocean waves break. In areas exposed to intense ocean currents, they bury one-third of their bodies in the sand and reduce the effect of the current by lying parallel to it. It is, of course, impossible for a tiny sea urchin to know that reducing the effect of current by lying parallel to it, just like surfers do, or burying themselves in the sand will strengthen their positions. Sea urchins have no intelligence or abilities, and it is Allah Who inspires them to act in the way they do. However, this is by no means the end of sea urchins’ characteristics that make them resistant to the ocean waves. Our Lord has created a great many details, the products of His omniscience, for sea urchins to display their resistance to waves.
 

Sea Urchins Have Been Created in a Wave-Resistant Shape

Allah, Lord of the Worlds, has created important characteristics inside the sea urchin’s body:  

1.Their Bodies Are Designed to Prevent Them From Being Dragged Along In The Ocean Waves: Allah has created sea urchins to be flat and  slightly domed in the middle, in order to prevent them being dragged along.

2.Their Body Shapes Balance the Lift Force of the Water: Our Lord has created sea urchins with a natural weight belt that balances out the lift force of the water.

3.They Eliminate Pressure Differences: The pressure on the lower surface of these animals is greater than that on the top surface. This sets up a force making it difficult for the sea urchin to cling on to its position. In order to balance out that pressure, Allah has created small channels on the lower surface of the sea urchin’s body. These eliminate the lift force of water by channeling it through them.

4.They Possess a Structural Feature That Allows Them to Increase Their Weight With Materials They Collect From Their Surroundings: Another way of eliminating the effect of lift forces is to be heavy. Since young sea urchins are lighter, they could easily be dragged away. But in order to increase their weight they collect and store grains of sand. As well as these items, they also collect heavy magnetite particles on the sea bed. In addition, as they grow, calcite develops between their upper and lower surfaces. This substance permits tensions on the upper surfaces to be transmitted to the lower, and also serves as a weight. These living things cannot, of course, calculate that collecting grains of sand will increase their weight, or know to select magnetite particles from among the grains of sand on the basis that these are heavier, nor do they know to  accumulate calcite between the upper and lower parts of their bodies all using their own intelligence and will. It is our Almighty Lord who teaches them these details so they can resist the ocean currents. We are told in one verse that:

“Allah will give security those who had faith in their victorious Safe Haven. No evil will touch them and they will know no sorrow.

Allah is the Creator of everything and He is Guardian over everything.

The keys of the heavens and earth belong to Him. It is those who reject Allah’s Signs who are the losers.” (Surat az-Zumar, 61-63)

5. Short Spines On Their Bodies Allow Them To Resist the Current:Sea urchins are covered by spines, some two or three millimeters long, which have exceedingly functional properties. Longer spines on their peripheries clear their path, while the spines on the lower part of their bodies enable them to move by clearing sand out of their way.

6. Sea Urchins’ Sharp, Tooth-Like Structures Allow Them To Cling To Hard Surfaces On The Sea Bed: These creatures tooth-like structures possess a very hard and natural filling material. When this structure, made up of calcite crystal layers, is broken and loses sharpness, a new crystalline structure emerges from beneath it.

Sea Urchins Are Manifestations Of Almighty Allah’s Title Of Bedi (He Who Creates without Previous Models)

Our Lord has bestowed many abilities on sea urchins in order to allow them to move with ease beneath the sea, protect themselves and resist the powerful ocean waves. Through the inspiration of Almighty Allah, this tiny living thing is able to resist giant waves that human beings find it impossible to swim or even stand up in, and are even able to take precautionary measures to allow them to do so. 

The features of sea urchins are signs of Allah’s Omniscience. Allah has created all things, those we can see around us and those we cannot, using no previous models in doing so. A flawless system made up of atoms, molecules, cells, living things, planets, stars and galaxies came into being through Allah telling it to, “Be!” at a time when there was no universe, galaxies, planets, living things or even so much as a single cell. Everything, from the micro-world human beings only discovered thousands of years later, to the heavenly bodies they discovered in the 20th Century are all systems created by Allah and are subject to the laws determined by Him. Allah created the universe when no such model existed, along with sea urchins and all the other details within it. Verses reveal how Allah is the creator of all things:

“Allah created every animal from water. Some of them go on their bellies, some of them on two legs, and some on four. Allah creates whatever He wills. Allah has power over all things.” (Surat an-Nur, 45)

All the living things on Earth are equipped with countless superior features, from the way they reproduce, to how they protect themselves and the way they feed. However, like all other living things, sea urchins are devoid of the intelligence and consciousness with which to do all these things.

The characteristics and systems possessed by sea urchins are evident proof of a sublime mind and intelligence. This intelligence and perfect harmony displayed in all of nature belong to Allah, the creator of all. Allah reveals His immaculate creation in this verse from the Qur’an:

“the Originator of the heavens and earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, ‘Be!’ and it is.”  (Surat al-Baqara, 117)

The Details in the Sea Urchin Spines

Sharp spines cover the sea urchin’s protective shell. These spines move when the muscles contract, and may be short and thin, or long and pointed. In general, sea urchin spines are one to two  centimeters long and one to two  millimeters thick. These spines are not very sharp. Some species have spines that may reach ten to twenty centimeters in length.  Sea urchins make use of them to feed, protect themselves and move.

Spines That Assist with Movement: There are claw-like structures between the spines that assist with clinging to the sea floor. Allah has created long tubes with suckers at their tips that protrude from the ends of the spines. These work like feet in clinging to the floor. When the sea urchin is in motion, these feet grow longer or shorter as the pressure in the water channels changes. The spines are made to move by means of muscle contraction.

Spines That Are an Important Part of the Defense System: There are two spines on the upper surface of the sea urchin. These are rod-like in shape, with round ends. These round tips prevent grains of sand alighting on the sea urchin, just like a piece of netting. Other spines resemble grains of corn, and these prevent even smaller sand particles accumulating. Because if sand accumulates between these spines, it will be harder for the organelles to function and this will harm the sea urchin.

Despite the presence of these spines in the form of rods and grains of corn, sand particles and organic matter may still slip through between the spines. But strips of cilia bands on the spines set up tiny currents and thus permit these to be cleaned off. Again, in the event of very minute organisms adhering to the spines or accumulating in cavities at the base of the spines, then tiny, mobile pincers that can easily reach each spine clean away all the waste and sand particles. Allah has also created tiny poison sacs in some of these pincers. In this way, Our Lord protects sea urchins from all dangers by the manifestation of His title of Hafiz (He who protects, watches over and preserves).  

Spines That Serve to Find Food: The way sea urchins feed is particularly interesting. Some 150,000 out of one million tube feet look for food. Suckers on the ends of these tiny, tube-like feet trap sand particles and single-celled organisms. Food is passed from one foot to another and eventually to the mouth, where some 5,000 sharp teeth tear it apart.

The single-celled organisms that represent a high-energy food source are diatoms. But when they cannot find diatoms, they feed on the fine organic layers on grains of sand. It is, of course, impossible for sea urchins to work out for themselves that there is a thin organic layer on grains of sand. It is Allah, the Rezzak (He who bestows food and blessings) who inspires them to behave in this way. One verse says:

“There is no creature on the earth which is not dependent upon Allah for its provision. He knows where it lives and where it dies. They are all in a Clear Book.” (Surah Hud, 6)
 

One of the issues believers meticulously avoid is “talking by twisting one’s tongue.” The meaning of talking by distorting one’s tongue is trying to interpret the verses of the Qur’an differently. In one verse of the Qur’an, Allah reveals that talking by twisting one’s tongue is a trait that belongs to the hypocrites who have disease in their hearts.
 

“It is He Who sent down the Book to you from Him: verses containing clear judgements – they are the core of the Book – and others which are open to interpretation. Those with deviation in their hearts follow what is open to interpretation in it, desiring conflict, seeking its inner meaning. No one knows its inner meaning but Allah. Those firmly rooted in knowledge say, ‘We have faith in it. All of it is from our Lord.’ But only people of intelligence pay heed.” (Surah Al ‘Imran, 7)
 

These people try to distort the meaning of the verses by acting out according to the desires of their inner selves, despite the fact that they can conscientiously understand the verses of the Qur’an very well. In regard to issues that contravene with their interests, they want to regulate the moral values of religion according to their own fancies, instead of abiding by the Qur’an. In one verse, it is revealed that hypocrites are aware that they are lying when they are twisting their tongues:
 

“Among them is a group who distort the Book with their tongues so that you think it is from the Book when it is not from the Book. They say, ‘It is from Allah,’ but it is not from Allah. They tell a lie against Allah and they know it.” (Surah Al ‘Imran, 78)
 

An unrighteous person is a person who has diverted from the right path and adopted a life based on rebellion against Allah. Therefore, an unrighteous person does not respect or pay heed to the boundries set by the Qur’an and cannot possess the traits of the believers such as justice, truth, honesty and strength of character. In addition, an unrighteous person is someone who does not have fear of Allah, who is jealous of believers’ faith, who wants to divert believers, if he could, and who strives to harm them. Thus, a report that reaches the believers from an unrighteous person is a matter that is inherently uncertain and must be explored more deeply in terms of truth. In one verse about this matter it is revealed as such:
 

“You who have faith! if a deviator brings you a report, scrutinize it carefully in case you attack people in ignorance and so come to greatly regret what you have done.” (Surat al-Hujurat, 6)
 

It would be ignorant behavior, as revealed by Allah, to pass judgment without trustworthy information and without exploring its truthfullness according to the Qur’an.
 

One of the greatest mistakes of some people is to behave not according to the logic revealed in the Qur’an, but in line with their own thinking or values common to the general public. Because of this, they can easily rationalize, ignore or carry out actions, which Allah would not like and indeed punish severly in the Hereafter, without even thinking. Telling lies is one  such behavior. In spite of the fact that deceitfulness is considered a bad moral trait, this sometimes remains ignored because a significant majority of people indulge in deceitfulness, which is a serious personality disorder. Allah reveals this truth in one verse as such:
 

If you obeyed most of those on Earth, they would misguide you from Allah’s Way. They follow nothing but conjecture. They are only guessing. (Surat Al-An‘am, 116)
 

When something, for example a teacup, is broken in a place where there are only two people, there is no need to ask the question of, “Who broke this?” as  the person who asked the question did not, the other one did. However, in spite of this, the person who broke it could lie by saying, “I did not break it” and “saves that moment”, according to his opinion. However, it is both seen that he is a liar and thus his pride, which he tried to save, was damaged and –more importantly- he acted in a way Allah does not like.

Deceitfulness?

In the life of this world, a person who lies and behaves in a sly and insincere manner may seem to gain some profits or advantages. However, this situation is deceiving. A liar always loses. He can never enjoy true friendship, love, trust, sincerity, closeness, peace and comfort in this world; and in the Hereafter he mayl be punished in a severe way. Allah reveals the condition of liars as follows:
 

Cursed be the liars, who are in a gulf of ignorance neglectful: they ask, “When is the Day of Judgment?” It is the day on which they shall be tried at the fire. (Surah ad-Dhariyat, 10-13)
 

Why Does One Lie?

Honesty?

An honest person knows they will have to face up to some difficulties from time to time. However, he always wins because he is honest and sincere. Allah grants him His blessing, mercy, love, his sense of resignation in this world and the Hereafter, and rewards him with the garden. Allah revealed the good result with which honest and sincere people will meet in the Qur’an as such:
 

Allah will say, “This is the day when their truth shall benefit the truthful ones; they shall have gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide in them forever: Allah is well pleased with them and they are well pleased with Allah; this is the mighty achievement. (Surah al-Maeda,119)
 

Why Is One Honest?

Because,

Our Prophet (saas) advises that people should not leave truthfullness,  and should avoid lies with these erudite words:

"You continue with the truth, because truth always gets  one to goodness. Goodness brings guidance in the garden. As one continues truthfullness and looks for the truth, he is written as loyal in the sight of Almighty Allah. Avoid telling lies, it certainly takes the person to evil, evil takes the person to the fire, meaning Hell, as the servant continues with lying and looks for lies, he is written as a liar." (Mehmed Zahid Kotku, Advices From Hadiths, Volume 1, p.279; From Buhari and Muslim)
 

Jealousy is an attitude condemned in the Qur’an. Allah reveals in the Qur’an that He created people’s inner selves as prone to jealousy but that believers have to avoid this:
 

“...But people are prone to selfish greed. If you do good and have faith, Allah is aware of what you do.“ (Surat an-Nisa, 128)
 

When some people are asked, “Are you jealous?” they can answer “yes” or “a little” to this question. However, they do not think about the meaning hidden behind this answer in detail. On the contrary, jealousy emerges when a person cannot accept that someone else is superior to him or her in any way. This is an attitude that will cause the person to become haughty against Allah, because Allah is the One Who grants people all of the characteristics they need. Allah gives as much as He wishes, to whomever He wishes, and no one can prevent this. In addition, in the Qur’an, it is revealed that satan revolted against Allah by not kneeling to the Prophet Adam (pbuh) and saw himself as superior to the Prophet Adam (pbuh). In this case, we are confronted with an important truth; jealousy is a trait that actually belongs to satan and a person who fears Allah should avoid this fiercely.
 

The fiberglass building technique was just created technologically in the 20th Century. However, this substance has existed in some living beings since the first day they were created. For example, alligator skin has the same structure as fiberglass.

Scientists did not know why alligator skin, which cannot be pierced with an arrow, knife or even sometimes bullets, was so strong until very recently. However, the studies done on this subject have yielded some very interesting results:

There is a special tissue in the alligator’s skin. The substance that gives strength to this tissue is the collagen protein fibers used inside. The specialty of these fibers is that they enter inside the tissues and strengthen its structure. There is no doubt that this substance (collagen) did not acquire so much detail and characteristics through respective coincidences over long years as is claimed by evolutionists. On the contrary, when it first came into existence on Earth, it was created together with its perfect features by Allah.
