Harun Yahya - Adnan Oktar 27
By means of specific layers of the atmosphere, sunrays reach earth only
in required amounts because the atmosphere processes the sunrays specifi-
cally according to their wavelengths. Our atmosphere is like a giant refining
plant designed for filtering these rays. This gigantic refining system that has
no equal on the earth has been carrying out these processes because of its
special design. Allah draws attention to the creation of the skies as follows,
(the Arabic word for ‘heaven – sama' is also the word for ‘sky'):
The creation of the heavens and earth is far greater than the creation of
mankind. But most of mankind do not know it. (Surah Ghafir: 57)

The arrangement within light astonishes scientists. Although too many rays come from
space, sunrays, as seen in the schema above, are restricted to a very narrow interval.
This is precisely the interval that is needed for life.
