110 ALLAH'S ART OF DETAIL

The Brain’s Impeccable Communication Network

Each glance, thought, or detection of a smell begins in our

brain. The relevant nerves interpret the transmitted message via an
electrical current. When we look at a glass, we recognize it as a
glass only because the brain’s nerves interpret it as such. When we
think about something, these nerves establish coordination with
and pass electrical currents through each other. We imagine that
the image of the glass forms in our brain; however, this image
reaches the brain solely as an electrical signal. Moreover, the brain
does not contain the slightest trace of this image. In other words,
we perceive the outside world only through the processes taking
place among these nerve cells. This being the case, the facts that 10
billion nerve cells have been carefully placed within the brain, are
means by which everything related to us is controlled, and that
they allow us to perceive a vivid world are great miracles. Such
miracles are simple things for Almighty Allah, Who created hu-

manity as well as the causes in question from nothing.
