HOW CAN WE REALIZE THE DEFECT FREE UNSEEN POWER
In order to understand our Creator, it is essential for us to understand our creation. We must go back to our original state, so that we may understand the existence of a Creator.
We must realize, what made us grow in a precise manner?
How is our body, based upon flesh bones and blood, constantly developing regardless of our age group, in such a precise manner.
What source allows a plant to grow after it's seed is placed in the ground. What source allows us to grow from a single seed in the mother's womb?
What source is creating and constantly maintaining the whole of this universe?
What source is maintaining the perfect and precise balance in our bodies, this world, and in this universe?
Is there anyone on the face of this earth, that can allow the sun to rise on a different time, other than that of it's decreed time?
Has created man from a clot (a piece of
thick coagulated blood). (96:2)
We must realize, how can we deny the existence of our Creator when we have been created from a single seed?
What source has allowed us to develop so precisely in the mother's womb from a single seed? The fact is that we have been developed by a Developer, without us knowing nor our mothers.
The fact is that we have been developed from a single cell. A cell is an unconscious biological creature, and therefore does not perceive it's surroundings. The cell does not have the capability of decision making, so therefore when our Creator has created us from a single seed in the mother's womb, we never even knew what was going on.
If neither us nor our mother knew of what development is taking place, the question arises who was our Planner, Creator, or Maintainer at that time?
"Then He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him the soul (created for the individual), and He gave you hearing (ears), sight (eyes) and hearts. Little is the thanks you give! (As-Sajdah 32:9)"
Why is it that our Creator has given many privileges to this single cell who turns in to a human being?
How is it that the standard of the human being is above zillions of creatures?
What source has made our brains so precise that we have the ability to develop worldly empires, comforts, and status?
What source has granted the human we beings the ability to develop such luxuries in this world, while the human being does not even have the capability to control the breath or the beat of the heart? We have no idea what we could achieve in the next second, what source grants the human being the ability to think, see, talk, and hear?
Our bodies are so fragile, that we fail to realize when life is normal, but we realize when we are stricken by a calamity.
Every individual will have to account for their deeds in front of their real source, and why did he deny his Lord. We have been created from a single seed, which is the most worthless thing on the face of this earth?
We have been created from a single seed, the most worthless thing, are we even the ones who created this seed?
"Did We not create you from a worthless water (semen, etc.)? (Al-Mursalat 77:20)"
To understand the proofs behind the existence of our Creator, Benefactor, and Provider, we must focus on the fact of our Creation.
If we take our own bodies as and example, and we start to go through the extreme preciseness and accuracy of our own creation.
In the process of creation, it is the father's cell which contains genetic information equal to an 800 volume encyclopedia. The genetic information found in a single cell contains the smallest details of the person, during the different stages of life.
Including the number of cells in the body or what the look of the person will be during the different stages of his lifetime. The genetic information found in the cell, is a blue print of human structure.
Who is the one who developed this blue print of the human body?
Who made everything He has created good,
and He began the creation of man from clay. (32:7)
Then He made his offspring from semen of worthless water (male and female sexual
discharge). (32:8)
Then He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him the soul (created
by Allāh for that person), and He gave you hearing (ears), sight (eyes) and
hearts. Little is the thanks you give! (32:9)
If we start to contemplate upon the magnificence, preciseness, and accuracy of this universe. We start to realize the Maintainer behind the preciseness of the systems of this universe.
Due to the advancement in technology and science, there is more information known about this universe. One may find defect in any object, however the preciseness of the system created by the Creator, are the most accurate, whether it may be our own bodies, this world, or the universe.
Who has created the seven heavens one above another, you can see no fault in the
creations of the Most Beneficent. Then look again: "Can you see any rifts?"
(67:3)
|
|
Then look again and yet again, your sight will return to you in a state of humiliation and worn out. (67:4)
We must realize the existence of the Creator, the Power through which the creations are constantly being created and maintained.
This world contains zillions of creations, which are found in many forms, shapes, and sizes.
In order for a creatures to exist, it requires the fact that it must be created, it must be maintained, it must have a body with complex systems and organs.
By which source do the creatures receive life, maintenance, and death?
When an individual contemplates upon the creation, the person better realizes that fact that there is Creator and Maintainer of all of these complex systems, of all of these complex creatures.
We have only scratched the surface when it comes to the discovery of creatures. Unlimited number of species exist in the air, land, and water.
And We have provided therein means of living, for you and for those whom you provide not [moving (living) creatures]. (Al-Hijr 15:20)
We must contemplate upon the fact that each and every individual creature is unique, and belongs to a unique habitat.
Even an ant has it's own food, and it's own style of living. Every creature has different capabilities and characteristics, we may see how the Creator has granted this world a perfect balance.
With all of the complexities of the human body, the creatures, this world, and the universe, it is absolutely essential to realize that there is a Creator, by who's grace, will, and mercy this universe was created, and this universe is constantly being maintained.
How can all of this come in to existence on it's own?
When we start to contemplate upon these clear undeniable facts, we start to realize the fact that there must be a Creator and a Lord.
Whether we focus on the facts of our body, this earth, the deep seas, or this universe, it is more than clear that there is a Creator.
The deeper we contemplate upon our own existence and that which exists around us, the more we will realize our Creator.
Due to the technological advancements in this world, it is increasingly becoming easier for us to understand our Creator. For any open sound thinking mind, we better realize the facts about our Creator, by contemplating and deeply searching through his Creations.
Our research today is becoming limitless, for we have the facility never available to those before us.
Including the world wide web, libraries, encyclopedias, for a ten year old may access any information as he pleases. While living in this technological era, what is stopping us from learning about our creator?
What is stopping us from reviewing and realizing the facts, are we the ones who has brought all of this in to existence?
We do not even have control over our own breath, if we inhale, what guarantee do we have that we will have the ability to exhale?
We must realize the unlimited power of our Creator upon all of the creatures he has created. For each and every creature that has been created, has it's own unique characteristics, for no two creatures on the face of this earth are alike. Every person has his or hers' own unique finger print, each finger print is unique in it's pattern.
The seemingly simple example of fingerprints is yet so complex, how can something of "coincidience" be so precise and accurate?
If we look at one species being insects, we may realize from the fact that for a single individual, there are more than 250,000,000.00 insects. As previously mentioned, no two insects on the face of this earth are exactly alike, for even amongst insects there are differences. Every insect family has it's own unique characteristics, and there are billions upon billions of insects in this world, and with the power of our creator, each and every insect has it's own unique body systems and parts functioning.
The genetic information in every creature is unique, for no two creatures have the same information.
If one focuses space, or goes anywhere, there is no planet like our world, for it in this world only where varieties of vegetables, fruits, creatures, and water is present.
And a sign for them is the dead land. We gave it life, and We brought forth from
it grains, so that they eat thereof. (36:33)
And We have made therein gardens of date-palms and grapes, and We have caused
springs of water to gush forth therein. (36:34)
So that they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands made it not. Will
they not, then, give thanks? (36:35)
Glory be to Him, Who has created all the pairs of that which the earth produces,
as well as of their own (human) kind (male and female), and of that which they
know not. (36:36)
And a sign for them is the night, We withdraw therefrom the day, and behold,
they are in darkness. (36:37)
And the sun runs on its fixed course for a term (appointed). That is the Decree
of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing. (36:38)
And the moon, We have measured for it mansions (to traverse) till it returns
like the old dried curved date stalk. (36:39)
It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day.
They all float, each in an orbit. (36:40)
Why is it then a "coincidence" that all these living things varieties of fruits, vegetables, flowers, etc. were created on earth only, and not anywhere else on the universe?
Lets analyze a few things:
- BIRDS: Birds are made from eggs, and the egg is made from the bird, so what is the origin of the first egg? If this is a coincidence why is this not taking place on billions of planets anywhere else in the universe?
- PLANTS: Can anyone analyze how many different types of plants there are? If this is a coincidence, then why is this not taking place on billions of planets anywhere else in the universe?
- CREATURES: They are millions of varieties of creatures on this earth, why are not one of the creatures being born on the other planets? If this is a coincidence why is this not taking place on billions of planets anywhere else in the universe?
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
Now some narrow minded people will think, because there are living organisms on this planet, that's why they are being born on this planet only.
So when the Big Bang happened, and this planet came out of that "Big Bang", then why did not this "coincidence" take place on any other planet, coming from the same explosion?
Now lets realize ourselves, the human being. 450 million cells can be accumulated on a single pencil tip. Each and every individual has originated only from a single cell, and when this cell was developed in the mother's womb, until 40 days it is only a piece of of flesh, which is known as the fetus. If it is unable to receive the soul from the creator, it is useless and non-existent, turning in to waste.
Now one can ask any mother, when she had received the soul in her womb, what special action was taken place in order to receive the soul? Did she put her hand in a socket of 220V, or did she eat any special kinds of herbs or medicine which can give life to that piece of flesh.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
What is giving the ability to the fetus, to hear, see, listen, and think, while in the mother's womb, placed in complete darkness?
Lets see our ears for example. What kind of microchips are sitting in the air that gives an individual the ability to hear? It is only a mixture of flesh which is based upon water.
When the fetus develops in the mother's womb, how is it developed so precisely and accurately, in order for it to live comfortably in this world?
We may realize, that if any mammal is placed in water for a time period of a few days, the parts will become in to pieces, and start to dissolve as a result. Now how is it that the baby (fetus) in the mother's womb survives in the bag of water for a period of 9 months? While all of these improvements are taking place each and every day. For while in the mother's womb, in the first stages, even the lungs are not developed, making the fetus breath through a cord known as the placenta, which is cut off after birth. For the placenta allows the fetus to breath, consume, and digest precisely, keeping the fetus alive, and by the mother's food it consumes, allowing it to grow and develop, in the best of all manners.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
Has taught man that which he knew not. (96:5)
What source teaches the fetus in the mother's womb on how to develop so precisely and accurately?
Nay! Verily, man does transgress all bounds (in disbelief and evil deed, etc.).
(96:6)
An individual's soul sits in a
structure that is based upon flesh, bones, blood, and water. For if he were to
see himself, and that which is contained in his body, he would feel disgusted at
the sight, up to the extent that he will not be able to even stand his own
smell. However, we may see how how that statusless individual fights with his
creator, while denying the blessings bestowed upon him by his Creator, Allah,
which he receives and benefits from during this lifetime. Unlimited and
countless blessings taken as granted, including sight, hearing, thinking,
talking, feeling, and many more blessings, which we do not even realize, and we
never can imagine we have. After that, he still asks the question, is there any
god (Allah)? How we do admire, due to lack of research all of those philosophers
and scientists, who are based upon that which is mentioned above. While we
forget, who is the creator of those individual's who baselessly deny him,
including the scientists and philosophers.
Where are those scientists, who no longer exist, including Galileo, Sir Isaac
Newton, and Albert Einstein? People are being educated and are admiring the work
of these dead individual's, who did not even have control over their own breath,
while they do not admire the source of everything, our Creator Allah, who has
granted us all of these countless and unlimited favors and blessings, whether we
realize it or not. This is while an individual's soul is placed in the most
disgusting structure, which he himself does not like, while he does so he tries
to deny his own creator. Mankind admires all that which is worldly, while he
forgets the source that controls us, which we have originated from, and which we
will depart to, upon our death.
There are many questions that arise in regards to the existence of the Creator, instead of the creations worshiping, they are trying to learn and admire the creations, day and night, while they forgot about the Creator. Day and night, they argue and mock in regards to the Creator, Provider, and Sustainer for all. Mankind is so proud of the knowledge, education, power, status, and the capabilities it thinks it has. However, they forget that they do not even have control over their own breath, which we use each and every second, which was granted to us by Allah, The Lord and Provider. Regardless how close an individual's soul is reaching it's permanent resting place time after time. For if they were to inhale, they themselves cannot guarantee that they will have the ability to exhale.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
Because he considers himself self-sufficient. (96:7)
If we we think that we are self sufficient and we foolishly raise the question about the existence of god (Allah)? Then remember that you were a fetus yourself and your lungs were not developed. So the only way you took breath, ate, and digested was only through a small cord, known as the placenta. So how can the placenta be a creation of it's own, so that the fetus may be provided with nutrition from the food, and oxygen? So that you, as a fetus, have survived, grown, and developed precisely, in the best of all manners. Why didn't you use your best smartness, intellectual, and guidance for yourself in the mother's womb, to make sure you are not handicapped at birth, and you look the most handsome or beautiful. And did you make sure that your head be soft, so that it does not crush at the time of delivery? If you are asking about the existence of your Creator, then remember and think was it you who has guided yourself to develop in the most precise manners.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
Now we may see how is the world trying to hate those who worship and are trying to be obedient to the one who is Unseen, and is the Provider, Creator, the One Unseen Real Source, and Sustainer for all, including those who hate those obedient individuals. While they hate those individuals, they themselves forget that their breath and heart is not beating because of their own smartness, but it is by the Creator's divine will, that those individuals are trying to adhere to.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD?
Allah, the All-Knower, is the best knower of all, who knew about mankind, since time it started from the first man, Adam, May Allah's blessings be upon him. When Allah, the Lord and Majesty, revealed the Quran to the Noble Prophet Muhammed, May Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, he taught in the Holy Quran, over 1400 years ago, so that mankind may realize, what they really are worth, and what their status really is.
Surely! Unto your Lord is the return. (96:8)
Have you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) seen him who prevents, (96:9)
A slave (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) when he prays? (96:10)
Tell me, if he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is on the guidance (of Allāh)?
(96:11)
Or enjoins piety? (96:12)
Tell me if he denies (the truth, i.e. this Qur'ān), and turns away? (96:13)
Knows he not that Allāh does see (what he does)? (96:14)
Nay! If he ceases not, We will catch him by the forelock, (96:15)
A lying, sinful forelock! (96:16)
Then, let him call upon his council (of helpers), (96:17)
We will call the guards of Hell (to deal with him)! (96:18)
Nay!! Do not obey him. Fall prostrate and draw near to Allāh! (96:19)
Now if one still has the question if there is any god, then remember that when you were a fetus in the mother's womb, who guided you, to make you suck on your thumb in order to teach you how to suckle after birth, or was this learned by your own intellectuality, or when you were a baby, did you teach yourself this, to learn how develop and suckle, from a cell, to a fetus, to the time of delivery, have we been teaching ourselves what to do next?

- The most interesting aspect of the mother's milk is that it's concentration changes according to the development phases of the baby. The amount of calories and the food content change according to whether the babies' deliveries was premature or on time. If the baby is premature, the fat and protein concentration is higher in the mothers' milk, then a baby would normally need. Because the premature baby needs more calories, immune system elements that the baby needs such as anticores or defense cells, are given to the baby ready made in the mother's milk. Just like professional solders they defend the body to which they do not belong and protect the baby from its enemies.
Who is guiding the milk in order to develop accordingly to the babies' requirements?
- It is antibacterial although bacteria are produced in normal milk if it is left at room temperature for 6 hours. No bacteria are produced in the mothers' milk if left for the same period.
Who is preventing the mother's milk from staying antibacterial while at room temperature?
- It protects the baby against arteriosclerosis.
- The baby quickly digests it.

WHO WOULD WANT TO REALIZE THE DEFECT-FREE UNSEEN POWER AND HOW IT WORKS?
 |
Babies are born from there mother's womb with the reflex to suck. Their
sucking exercise, which starts with thumb sucking in the womb, have a vital
importance in feeding of the baby after birth, because there is no other way
for the baby to get milk, which is its only food source.
Who guides the baby, so that he may taught on how to suck milk? |
We know that none of the artificial baby food produced in the modern laboratories by expert dieticians is as beneficial as the natural mother's milk. How can we answer the question, who produced this milk in the mother's body except for Allah?
When the mother herself is even unaware of its production. And yet it is superior to those produced in laboratory conditions. It is very well known that the mother's milk is brought in to being by the creator of the baby, for this is the most important need of the baby.
Lets analyze how strong we actually are. Before birth, until the mother and father do not receive any ultra sound report, they are so scared and worried and doubtful on the condition of the baby. At birth, how helpless the baby actually is, day by day the growth takes place, with the blessing of Allah, the Creator.
Reproduction takes place anywhere in the world, regardless if the mother or father are poor or rich. And as soon as we grow older, our brain develops more precisely. As we get some position or authority, and education, instead of thanking our creator who has actually given us status and education. Out of pride our eyes start to close and we forget our creator.
We forget our status in the mother's womb when we were only a single cell made from the most dirtiest water, and we start to adopt materialism, and we deny our creator.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD (Allah)?
Lets analyze our status and wealth and education?
If we are a millionaire and we have throat cancer, we will get our food through the tube abnormally. Lets say one is unable to urinate, our millions of dollars cannot buy our health.
If Allah, the Creator, stops any part of your body to function, who gives and takes life, no money will ever be able to run that function normally, without the will of Allah.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD (Allah)?
Lets now talk about a poor person, who does not have any money, and starves for a few days, and begs for a single piece of bread. Ask him ten million dollars to break his eyes, or for hearing, or for his arms and legs, and lets realize how many beggars will actually except your generous offer. To earn this amount is very easy on the lips, but hard to earn. So do not kid yourself, be serious, and realize your Creator how valuable he made you.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD (Allah)?
Nothing can be acquired without money, even something simple as a pencil, or candy. What money is being paid to Allah, to use our eyesight, hearing, thinking, or any other part in the body? There are not any charges from Allah to use these facilities. If one is unable to pay electric bill for two-months, no government will be willing to keep the person who is not paying his taxes and bills. In Toronto, Canada there are about 40,000 homeless individuals who sleep on the streets, because they are unable to pay their bills, similar example can be found in any major city around the world.
Then which of the Blessings of your Lord will you both (jinns and men) deny?
(55:13)
Lets say one becomes a superior authority and a multi-billionaire, the most highest status in society. The Angel of death will never come and ask what status or responsibility one has, he will take your soul, without any question! Your status and authority will never save you from death.
DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD (Allah)?
While we are in this world, this status of an individual is temporary. Because every soul from the time of birth is born with a count down timer. Every second we travel towards death, regardless of what status we may have. Billions of people have already died, from the beginning of this world, you and I will never stay in this world forever. Allah (SWT) who is the controller of our death, is keeping the secret of the time of our death.
Say (O Muhammad SAW to mankind). "If the sea were ink for (writing) the
Words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be exhausted before the Words of my Lord
would be finished, even if we brought (another sea) like it for its aid."
(18:109)
What is the meaning of the verse above, quoted from the Qur'an? Why is Allah referring to "Lord" in the verse, which means Provider. The Provider of the things he has granted to us on this planet only.
Allah is referring to the research of the human being, for example, research taking place in the fields of Botany, Physics, Chemistry, also in the Medical field. All the researchers are learning more about the creator's creations, such as an eye specialist, or a nose specialist, a brain and heart specialist, etc. Who has granted this knowledge to them? No one has any idea regardless how educated, researcher, doctor, scientist they are. No one can think what he will get in his knowledge in the next second. Everyone is getting knowledge from the creator on a second to second basis. And when we achieve discoveries and success in our research, the one who achieved this success did not have any idea 5 minutes before the achievement, that he or she will gain success.
\DO WE STILL WANT TO LEARN MORE, IS THERE ANY GOD (Allah)?
Allāh! Lā ilāha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He),
the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither
slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and
whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His
Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and
what will happen to them in the Hereafter . And they will never compass anything
of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursī[]
extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding
and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. (2:225)
We created you, then why do you believe not? (56:57)
Then tell Me (about) the human semen that you emit. (56:58)
Is it you who create it (i.e. make this semen into a perfect human being), or
are We the Creator? (56:59)
We have decreed death to you all, and We are not unable, (56:60)
To transfigure you and create you in (forms) that you know not. (56:61)
And indeed, you have already known the first form of creation (i.e. the creation
of Adam), why then do you not remember or take heed? (56:62)
Tell Me! The seed that you sow in the ground. (56:63)
Is it you that make it grow, or are We the Grower? (56:64)
Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry pieces, and you would be regretful
(or left in wonderment). (56:65)
(Saying): "We are indeed Mughramūn (i.e. ruined or lost the money without
any profit, or punished by the loss of all that we spend for cultivation, etc.)!
(56:66)
"Nay, but we are deprived!" (56:67)
Tell Me! The water that you drink. (56:68)
Is it you who cause it from the rain clouds to come down, or are We the Causer
of it to come down? (56:69)
If We willed, We verily could make it salt (and undrinkable), why then do you
not give thanks (to Allāh)? (56:70)
Tell Me! The fire which you kindle, (56:71)
Is it you who made the tree thereof to grow, or are We the Grower? (56:72)
We have made it a Reminder (for the Hell-fire, in the Hereafter); and an article
of use for the travelers (and all the others, in this world). (56:73)
Then glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great. (56:74)
Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High, (87:1)
Who has created (everything), and then proportioned it; (87:2)
And Who has measured (preordainments for each and everything even to be blessed
or wretched); then guided (i.e. showed mankind the right as well as wrong paths,
and guided the animals to pasture); (87:3)
And Who brings out the pasturage, (87:4)
And then makes it dark stubble. (87:5)
We shall make you to recite (the Qur'ān), so you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon
him)) shall not forget (it), (87:6)
Except what Allāh, may will, He knows what is apparent and what is hidden.
(87:7)
And We shall make easy for you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) the easy way
(i.e. the doing of righteous deeds). (87:8)
Therefore remind (men) in case the reminder profits (them). (87:9)
The reminder will be received by him who fears (Allāh), (87:10)
But it will be avoided by the wretched, (87:11)
Who will enter the great Fire and made to taste its burning, (87:12)
Wherein he will neither die (to be in rest) nor live (a good living). (87:13)
Indeed whosoever purifies himself (by avoiding polytheism and accepting Islāmic
Monotheism) shall achieve success, (87:14)
And remembers (glorifies) the Name of his Lord (worships none but Allāh), and
prays (five compulsory prayers and voluntary prayers) (87:15)
Nay, you prefer the life of this world; (87:16)
Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting. (87:17)
Verily! This is in the former Scriptures, (87:18)
The Scriptures of Ibrāhim (Abraham) and Mūsa (Moses) (
