A 50-million fossil lightning bug
Chance could never produce a single one
of the thousands of lenses possessed by
this firefly, nor even a single protein in
the innumerable cells that constitute the-
se lenses. It is Almighty Allah Who sees
and observes all beings at all times, Who
creates every living things with flawless
details, Who creates extraordinary equipment in a tiny insect and Who gives human beings
the intelligence and conscience with which to reflect on these.
Mankind! An example has been made, so listen to it carefully. Those whom you call upon besides
Allah are not even able to create a single fly, even if they were to join together to do it. And if a fly
steals something from them, they cannot get it back. How feeble are both the seeker and the sought!
(Qur’an, 22:73)
