bacteria underground are much slower than those of bacteria on the
surface. A normal bacterium divides every 3 to 4 hours, whereas
these underground bacteria divide once every 100 years! These or-
ganisms can live for millions of years without having any contact
40
with the surface —major evidence that these bacteria in question
were specially created to refine gold, an instructive phenomenon
that shows Allah's flawless Creation. Bacteria change their rate of

reproduction according to their environment. Certainly no single-
celled creature behaves in a conscious manner. It is Allah, the
Omniscient, the Most Intelligent of all intelligent beings, Who in-
spires their behavior and calculations.

Bacteria living in gold beds accelerate the sedi-
mentation of microscopic gold particles as the
feed on rocks, and give rise to gold deposits un-
derground. Allah has made bacteria a means
whereby gold, which adorns our lives, comes into
being. HARUN YAHYA
