“There is no betrayal of the leader in the communist system; the PKK will not abandon Abdullah Öcalan...”
The PKK is a Stalinist-Marxist organization. Therefore, unless they suffer from a mental disorder or engage in serious activity against its own interests, the organization will not get rid of its leaders. Loyalty to the leader is intense in the communist Stalinist system. They should not even dream the PKK will abandon its leaders. That is out of the question. Under the communist Stalinist system, leaders are only done away with if they are killed or a serious conflict of opinion arises. Otherwise, no such thing has ever been seen in the Marxist system. There is no betrayal in the Marxist system. Of course it is an irreligious organization, but it also has its own ethical structure. Communists have a strong sense of loyalty; they look out for their own people, in other words. For example, even if someone was killed 20 or 30 years ago, they will still be remembered every year. That is a form of loyalty. They never renounce that. So there is no question of their turning their backs on Abdullah Öcalan. Some people may hope they will, but they will not. The organization will never renounce its Marxist-Leninist line. (January 11th, 2013-A9 TV)

“The PKK believes that the armed struggle will produce results, and that it can easily divide Turkey through elections. But we will never allow Turkey to be broken up...”
The PKK thinks that they have a good organization in the Southeast and can speak to a wide mass of people. They think they can bring the Marxist ideology to power through elections, that they can split Turkey apart in other words. They believe they can achieve a result in favor of national fragmentation in a referendum. They therefore also think that a Marxist, Stalinist power can easily come to power by popular vote. In other words, they think the armed struggle will produce results, and that even if it does not, they can still proceed by stepping up their armed struggle until it does. They are very dear to us. We will not turn our country or its citizens over to the communists. They can forget it. We will not give up one inch of land. ( January 11th, 2013A9 TV)

The maternal compassion and the example of the self-sacrifice in the octopus In the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean, the giant octopus – their length exceeds four metres- live. The octopus searches for a shelter in order to be safe and when they find the shelter they live there until the end of their lives. This shelter is a place where the octopus will give birth to the baby octopi safely. As soon as the mother octopus settles down, it starts to lay eggs. After giving birth to about 100,000 baby octopi , it won’t breed again. The mother octopus takes care of its babies with great self-devotion during six months. In order to keep the babies alive the nest should be moist. To do this, the octopus checks the eggs frequently. To cater to the oxygen of the eggs, the octopus splashes water continuously on the eggs. The mother octopus is so busy taking care of the eggs that it doesn’t spend time on eating anything. Although it could easily die from starvation, it endeavors without stopping to take care of its eggs until they hatch safely and easily until it breaths its last. In the end, young and fully-formed babies hatch from the eggs... However, the mother octopus which is a caretaker, compassionate and merciful is dead. Of course, He is Allah Who creates the octopus with compassion, mercy and devotion, and He has the infinite mercy and compassion, as He is the Creator and maintainer of all living things. Allah is most Benefcent, the most Merciful.

How big can the floating objects be on the space? Let’s get the answer by starting with a journey from the moon: a celestial body which can be regarded as fairly big: The Moon... Mercury... Mars... Venus... Earth... We live here Neptune Saturn Jupiter The Sun... Our star Sirius A Pollux… An Orange Giant Archturus... A Red Giant Aldebaran… A Red Giant Ragil… A Blue Super Giant Pistol Star… A Blue Hyper Giant Antares A… A Red Super Giant Mu Cephei… A Red Supergiant VY Canis Majoris... A Red HyperGiant: known as the biggest star The Size Of the Earth is 12,756 km. This star is 1,975,000,000 km in diameter. How can you imagine this size on your mind? Imagine an airliner which goes with 900 km per hour and flying around this star. Just one circuit of an airliner around this star would last exactly 1,100 years. The size of the star on a picture which shows our galaxy is only as big as a spot on a piece of paper. And our galaxy ... would be seen only as big as a spot in the vastness of the universe. “Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is a greater (matter) than the creation of men: Yet most men understand not.” (Surah Al-Ghafir, 57)

Bloodshed will not cease until we have Islamic Unity and all muslims enthusiastically and passionately desire the system of the Mahdi!
The Islamic world, which has always had a spiritual leader in all periods after the Prophet (saas), finds itself leaderless in Hijri 1400...
The Islamic world is fragmented and scattered when people holding all different kinds of ideas and beliefs have formed their own unity...
And the Islamic world is suffering all over the planet...
SYRIA
Reports of the martyrdom of hundreds of Muslims come in on an almost daily basis. The repressive Ba'athist regime tortures and brutalizes its own people, including even children. People have their hands tied behind them and are martyred. Women and the elderly are ruthlessly slaughtered.
IRAQ
1.2 million people have lost their lives since 2003; 4.5 million people have had to abandon their homes. The fighting goes on seemingly without end. Reports of bomb attacks have become a part of daily life.
AFGHANISTAN
In the first four months alone of the American occupation, 20,000 civilians lost their lives, and the number has risen every year thereafter. Civilians are still dying in bomb attacks, and millions of Afghans are trying to survive under very harsh, starvation conditions in the refugee camps.
EAST TURKESTAN
To date, 35 million of our Uighur Turk brothers have been martyred. Ten thousand Muslims disappeared in a single night in 2009, and 100,000 of our Uighur sisters were forcibly removed from their homes and taken away.
PATHANI
More than 400 people have disappeared under the state of martial law in force in the region for the last three years, some 2,300 people have been martyred and 4,000 people have been detained on illegal grounds. Some 30,000 people are still being detained in concentration camps today.
PALESTINE
Five hundred places of habitation have been wiped off the map in the last 50 years in Palestine, where millions of people are still living in what is essentially an open-air prison camp surrounded by high walls.
MORO
Our Muslim brothers of the Philippine island of Moro have been oppressed by dictators and communist regimes for the last 60 years. To date, 150,000 of our Muslim brothers have been martyred on Moro.
MYANMAR
Fifteen thousand settlement units were destroyed in Myanmar between 1942 and 1996, and 2 million people were forced to emigrate. 300,000 people were martyred. Twenty thousand women were raped. Five thousand mosques and madrassas were burned down. In 1991-92, 300,000 Arakan Muslims were forced to leave their own homeland out of fear of being slaughtered. Hundreds of Arakan Muslims were slaughtered in a single month as of May 2012.
All this oppression, of which we have described just a very small part, shows the Islamic world something very important indeed:
ALLAH WANTS MUSLIMS TO BE UNITED!
Hold fast to the rope of Allah all together, and do not separate... (Surah Al ‘Imran, 103)
NOBODY COULD OPPRESS THE 1.5-BILLION PEOPLE OF THE ISLAMIC WORLD LIKE THIS IF IT WERE UNITED, and nobody would even think of committing such wickedness.
If the 1.5-billion Muslims of the Islamic world were united, THEN NOT A HAIR ON THE HEAD OF ANY MUSLIM anywhere in the world could be harmed.
But if Muslims are fragmented and leaderless, then the door will be wide open to the wickedness of the cruel.
Until Muslims give one another the glad tidings of the Mahdi (as) as commanded by our Prophet (saas), and understand the extraordinary nature of the time we are living in and desire the system of the Mahdi, until they obey this explicit commandment of Allah’s and become united, then this suffering will never end!
The way for this suffering to come to an end
is not by shouting angry slogans in the streets,
or talking for hours in the language of despair!
The way to put an end to this suffering is by striving for Islamic Unity.
It must not be forgotten that every Muslim who does not strive for Islamic Unity is morally responsible for every drop of blood spilled!

Did you know that some plants use the winds to disperse their seeds?
Feathery or wing-like structures capable of flight... A very light body... These are some of the properties of seeds carried by the wind. Let us imagine a coconut. It is of course impossible for a seed of that size and weight to be borne by the wind. All seeds carried by the wind are actually very light, and their shapes are ideally suited to flying. Let us look at this plant with its lovely flowers. The stem of the plant, that has begun drying out under the effect of the Sun, separates from the soil in a strong wind. By means of their special shape, the seeds begin rolling down the road. But some plants spread their seeds by the wind. These seeds that resemble a helicopter in shape move by spinning around and fall easily onto the soil. This plant’s seeds are also carried by the, wind but have an entirely different shape. Supported on paper-thin wings, they can fly distances of up to hundreds of meters. As soon as the seed lands, the wings dry and snap off and the plant begins to sprout again. These few examples show us the glorious variety in plant seeds. Allah, the Creator of all, has flawlessly created plants. I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed satan
Your God is Allah alone, there is no god but Him. He encompasses all things in His knowledge. (Surah Ta Ha, 98)

Rabbits
If you try to approach a rabbit, you will most probably notice it running away from you right away with great speed. With their keen hearing abilities, they sense the slightest sound or movement and lose no time in running away. Their hind legs are longer and stronger than their forelegs. This feature enables them to run 40 to 60 kilometers per hour in short sprints, and hop in jumps up to 6 meters ahead. A rabbit can run faster than a car traveling in a city. Rabbit teeth also lengthen constantly. It is the rabbits constant gnawing which files down the rabbit teeth and enables them to remain at a desirable length all the time. On the rabbit’s nose, there exist some special cells that also function as olfactory cells. They have about 20 sensory fibers on their lips that move up and down. Using these sensory cells they try to acquire more information about their environment. For this reason rabbits’ noses and upper lips always move. There are various kinds of rabbits on Earth that have widely different features. The rabbits living in colder regions are generally white. In this way they are not recognized on snow and can easily conceal themselves. Some rabbits build their nests underground and thus protect themselves. Wild rabbits, which are relatively bigger in size than others, have longer legs and ears. American rabbits living in the deserts, on the other hand, have very big ears that help it to cool. Like other living beings, Almighty Allah creates rabbits together with all the features meeting their needs in a moment. Allah is the One Who protects and exactly knows all the needs of living beings. I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-
… Is it other than the religion of Allah that you desire, when everything in the heavens and earth, willingly or unwillingly, submits to Him and to Him you will be returned. (Surah Al Imran, 83)

How small are electrons?
The atom itself is extraordinarily minute, but its components are billions of times smaller than the atom. The nucleus that makes up almost the whole of the atom, in other words the matter inside it, occupies just one 10 billionth of its volume. The electrons that revolve around the nucleus are almost without any mass. They are so minute that they can only be seen as a dust cloud even under an electron microscope. The other 99.999% of the atom is EMPTY SPACE. The following examples will make it easier to comprehend the minute size of electrons and this vast void within the atom: Protons are much larger than electrons. One proton is equivalent to 2000 electrons. The difference between them is equivalent to that between a human being and a peanut. If we regard a full stop on a piece of paper as the nucleus of the atom, the electron revolving around it is 50 meters away. If we think of the nucleus as being the size of an apple, then the electron revolving around it would be 50 km away. That is equivalent to the distance between Liverpool and Manchester in the UK. Therefore, a person standing where the apple is could not even see the electrons revolving as far away as Manchester. The area within this huge distance represents the vast emptiness within the atom. The following example can help us grasp this huge void: if one could eliminate all the empty space in the atoms making up one of the tallest buildings in the world, the matter remaining would be smaller than a packet of sugar. Yet the mass of that matter would remain the same and not even the most powerful winches could lift it. The fact that the building block of matter largely consists of huge empty space is one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century. By showing us this astonishing structure of the atom, Almighty Allah reminds us that He can create whole worlds using no natural causes. This sublime knowledge and artistry belongs to Almighty Allah alone, the Lord of the worlds. I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan: He said, “[Allah] The Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything between them if you knew for sure.” (Surat ash-Shu’ara, 24)

The Dance Of The Western Grebes
The Western Grebe performs a spectacular display, sometimes referred to as the “Rushing Ceremony” and the “Weed Ceremony”. During the Rushing Ceremony, two birds swim side by side and then lunge forward with the body completely out of water to run rapidly across the water for up to 20 meters. Their wings are lifted but not extended. The run ends with a dive. The Weed Ceremony occurs late in pair-formation. The grebes usually stare at one another while in an erect posture with the crest raised and bill held nearly horizontal. As the display proceeds, the posture becomes more rigid. From this neck-stretched posture, one or both of the grebes suddenly dives to return to the surface with weeds still in the erect posture. When both grebes have weeds, they approach each other with feet churning the water to rise into a vertical posture with most or all of their bodies out of water. Their necks are outstretched and their bills raised above the horizontal. The grebes move slowly forward, sometimes spiraling, while their heads rotate from side to side. The display ends when one grebe discards its weeds . No doubt our Almighty Lord, Who is infinitely wise, compassionate and merciful, creates such flawless aesthetics and beauty in these birds and grants the systems in their bodies allowing them to perform the spectacular displays they are renowned for .
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)

The Bolas Spider That Hunts by Lassoing Its Prey
However, the Bolas spider’s hunting technique is quite extraordinary. It first produces a thread stronger than silk inside its own body. It then places very powerful and sticky droplets on the end of this thread. It then dangles the thread from a tree, rather like a fishing rod, and begins patiently waiting for its prey. It also employs a miraculous tactic to attract its prey toward it. It manufactures a scent in its body and then releases it! How? Female moths release a special scent hormone known as a pheromone to attract males. Bolas spiders replicate this scent and place it at the edge of the lure. In addition, they can change this pheromone to match the features of other insect species. Deceived, the male moth heads in the direction the scent comes from. When the moth approaches, the spider places the lasso on its two front feet and casts it, faster than the human eye can see. The sticky tip flies through the air and sticks to the moth’s body, and the prey is caught. The adhesive substance sticks to the moth’s body and the insect is reeled in. The fine but very strong thread can easily carry living things much heavier than itself at its tip. The Bolas spider wraps the moth up in a special silk it produces. The distinguishing feature of this silk is that it keeps the food fresh for a long time. The spider thus keeps its prey fresh to be consumed at a later time. Its marvelous plan has worked. There is another point to bear in mind here. The Bolas spider is practically blind. Yes, that’s right! Spiders’ eyesight is very poor, but they can perceive the vibrations caused by insects when they fly. Although the Bolas spider is almost blind, it can catch a flying insect with the help of the lasso it makes itself hanging suspended in the air. This is an obvious miracle. Let us now review what the Bolas did in order to hunt, step by step: -It manufactured a silk thread stronger than steel but highly flexible, and prepared an adhesive ball right at the end of it... -It produced a scent manufactured by an insect, from a totally different species to its own, and released it... -It threw the lasso at its prey faster than the human eye can see. -The lasso hit the target even though the spider was suspended in the air. -Finally, it wrapped its prey up in a special silk to keep it fresh. Almighty Allah, Lord of the universe and all living things, once again shows us His sublime and unique creative artistry in this spider. The way that every spider ever born knows the hunting techniques employed by its own species is a miracle all by itself. For example, this Bolas spider made its first lasso when it was still a baby; at that time, it is smaller than a fingertip. The lasso is smaller than a pinhead. But it knows just what it has to do. There is no doubt that this ability to spin webs and set traps shows that spiders are “inspired.” It is without doubt Almighty Allah, Lord of all the worlds, Who creates these creatures with these wondrous characteristics and inspires in them all they do. I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-
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 Glorious Equilibrium In The Big Bang
There is only one explosion to which this does not apply:The Big Bang The Big Bang theory states that the universe came into being with a single, enormous explosion. Under normal circumstances, explosions fling matter outward and disorder it. Yet the Big Bang had a completely opposite effect. It caused pieces of matter to combine together and give rise to whole galaxies. The matter that came into being with the Big Bang acquired an “extraordinary” form and regularity. In the wake of that explosion, planets, galaxies and stars all formed in a flawless manner. The flawless order and equilibrium in the Big Bang, which has been proved with modern scientific findings, definitively prove that the universe was created by Allah, the Almighty. I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan; He [Allah] is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. (Surat al-An’am, 101) One dimension of the stunningly delicate order in the Big Bang is its speed. The speed of the expansion of the universe was determined with an extraordinary sensitivity, calculated and set into motion perfection:
These sensitive balances, a flawless universe, the systems within that universe, the stars, the Earth and all the people, trees, animals, flowers and other living things on Earth could not have come about by the spontaneous combination of atoms in the wake of a random explosion. All the details we see, wherever we look, are evidence of the existence and power of Almighty Allah. Science proves creation. Allah definitely exists. He is the sole Lord of the skies, the Earth and the wondrous equilibrium in the universe. Allah created the universe from nothing. This conclusion reached by modern science was foretold in the Qur’an 1,400 years ago:
Your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six days and then settled Himself firmly on the Throne. He covers the day with the night, each pursuing the other urgently; and the sun and moon and stars are subservient to His command. Both creation and command belong to Him. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of all the worlds. (Surat al-A’raf, 54)

Lizard that Walks on Water: Basilisk If someone talks about “walking on water”, you would think that he has a great imagination or that it could only be possible via illusions. This ability, which is so impossible for us, is a very common way of living for some living creatures. There are living creatures that walk on water or stroll on the water surface safely without even realizing concepts such as buoyancy of water, laws of surface tension, weight, length and density. This lizard called “basilik” which lives in Central America is one of the miraculous creatures that walks on water. It jumps into water when it senses a danger, It stands on its back feet on the water and begins to run on the surface of the water. Its physics of running on water is very perfect. And the secret of this miracle is in the cavities filled with air that forms underneath its feet as it runs. Its feet have scaled whisks that momentarily captures air and prevents the animal from sinking. Therefore, the basiliks walk on air instead of walking on water. The only thing it needs to do is to be as fast as it can to avoid the air package being ruptured until it takes the next step. However, the basilik reaches a speed of 12 kilometer per hour while running on water as if it knows this. And it can pass over a 40 meter long pool without sinking. If the lizard does not withdraw its foot from the hole formed when it compresses its foot on water, its foot can sink. In order to pull the foot out of the water, the animal needs to overcome the bonding between the water and its foot. Just as the animal pushes down, the toes on its foot are pulled up together with the foot. This means that when the animal pulls its foot from the hole with speed, only air is formed around it. For a human being to accomplish what is done by the basiliks lizard, he would need to run 104 km per hour and consume 15 times more energy than he normally does, which is quite impossible with current circumstances. As it is seen, the basiliks can only stand with the help of detailed calculations. However, the basiliks lack the consciousness and intelligence to make such a calculation. For example, it is a clear fact that it cannot calculate the grams of weight required so it can stand on water, the speed at which it can benefit from surface tension or the structure of its feet to ensure not getting wet, and that it cannot take the precautions related to these and make the required changes in its body.
There is a clear plan and calculation here and this calculation belongs to Allah. And Allah reveals as follows in one verse:
... Every single thing is before His Sight. (Surat ar-Ra’d, 8)

Auroras
They are essentially caused by sunbursts. Energetic charged particles, carried to our Earth by solar winds, are directed by the Earth’s magnetic field towards the high latitude regions where very few people live. They are ionized by colliding with oxygen and nitrogen atoms in the atmosphere, and this causes light to be emitted. Pink, red and particularly green light enchants those who observe them. These colorful rays that illuminate our world in the darkness, and so much else that is so beautiful, are all manifestations of the artistry of Allah, the matchless Creator. I seek refuge in Allah from the cursed Satan
The coloring of Allah – and what coloring could be better than Allah’s? It is Him we worship. (Surat al-Baqara, 138)

The wondrous equilibrium of the forces inside the atom
But what happens inside the atoms is in direct contravention of that fundamental law. The protons gathered together in the nucleus of the atom are all positively charged. Under normal circumstances they should repel one another. But instead they are all bound to one another. And while the negatively charged electrons should repel one another, they revolve side by side around the nucleus. There is another extraordinary system inside the world in the atom: protons and electrons with opposite charges never bind to one another. They always remain at a specific distance from one another and that distance is never impaired. This exceptional state of affairs inside the atom is the result of special forces of attraction that are invisible to the eye but uniquely created for the atom. This system, which our Lord has created especially for the atom functions as follows: It is a STRONG NUCLEAR FORCE known as a “covalent bond” that keeps positively charged protons bound together in the nucleus of the atom. Protons striving to repel one another are locked onto one another by means of this force. If the force in question were slightly more powerful, protons and neutrons would all stick together; while if it were slightly weaker these particles would all fly away from one another. In that event there could certainly be no living or inanimate entities, no Earth, no Sun and no universe. In order to comprehend the power of the covalent bond inside the atom, all one needs do is think of the force of a nuclear bomb. These bombs are the result of the fragmentation of the atomic nucleus. When the nucleus is split, this force is released and turns into an incomparable destructive force that turns all living things before it into ashes and whose radioactive effects persist for years. The electrons that surround the atom and revolve at a most harmonious velocity are unaffected by the strong nuclear force we've been talking about since they are very small. The force that works on them is the same as that when a magnet attracts metal; ELECTROMAGNETIC FORCE. The sensitive value of electromagnetic force prevents electrons from adhering to the nucleus or entirely flying away from it. These invisible bonds between the components of the atom, and the delicate levels within them, are by themselves enough to see the grandeur and majesty of our Almighty Lord’s Might and Power. The bonds in question are so exceedingly sensitive that, for instance, a covalent bond is approximately “a billion, billion, billion, billion, billion” times greater than the Force of Gravity. There is a “million, million” times difference between a covalent bond and Electromagnetic Force.
But what if these values were just slightly different? The protons would not stay together in the nucleus, the electrons would fly off and it would be impossible for even a single atom to form. The whole universe would consist of nothing but radiation. There would be no stars, planets, human beings or anything. For example, if the covalent bond of the atoms making up our bodies were slightly weaker, our bodies would turn to dust in an instant. A “one in one thousand” variation would be more enough for that to happen. The more we look at these details inside the atom, we see that a Force is keeping them regulated at every moment. That force belongs to Almighty Allah, Lord and Sovereign over all the worlds. I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan:
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. (Surat al-Fatir, 41)

Did you know that the leaves that fall in autumn represent a most important ecological balance? Dead leaves falling onto the soil are a valuable source of food for many living things. Fallen leaves contain nutrients that can be used by insects, fungi and bacteria. These nutrients are altered by micro-organisms and enter the soil. Trees are also able to use their roots to take these nutrients back from the soil. In addition, fallen leaves set up a layer of mulch on the forest floor, thereby helping to retain and absorb rainfall. As well as all this, many living things hide under leaves for protection against external agents. Allah has made the autumn as an immaculate visual display for us as the leaves turn from green to red or orange, an instrument of great wisdom for all living things. With the coming of spring, Allah restores to life the trees whose leaves have fallen in the autumn and stand through the winter months with bare branches. And with the brightly colored blossoms and green leaves that sprout from those dry branches, we witness an immaculate artistry. This is without doubt one of the matchless works Allah’s artistry, He, Who creates flawlessly and with sublime knowledge. I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed satan
... Allah did not create the heavens and the earth and everything between them except with truth and for a fixed term. (Surat ar-Rum, 8)

Did you know? Owls’ eyes: Did you know that owls’ eyes are specially created to allow them to live at night?
Interestingly, owls cannot move their eyes. They can only look straight ahead. Yet by means of the highly flexible structure of their necks, they can rotate their heads up to 270 degrees, Aand this gives them a very wide field of vision. In some species of owls, the eyes represent five percent of the birds’ total body weight. This is a very high figure. Were this applied to human beings it would mean us having eyes the size of large grapefruit. Another feature of owls’ eyes is that they contain a high proportion of rod cells. These are sensitive to light and allows them to see superbly in the dark. The perfect and precise distance between the eyes of owls, which hunt at night, is also specially created and reinforces depth perception . Allah is He Who flawlessly creates all living things together with the properties they need. I seek refuge in Alah from the accursed satan:
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)

How does bacteria communication affect the climate?
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
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)

Plants with interesting qualities
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
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)

Bees that have technological knowledge · How do wasps collect solar energy? · 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?
“... 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
“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
“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)

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:
