HOW DID ALLAH CREATE THE UNIVERSE?

Scientists have made a very important discovery
in recent years. This important discovery was that
before the universe was formed, there was nothing
else. There was no land, no air, no water, and there
were no stars; there was even no space. Inside this
nothingness, there was this tiny spot. This spot was
so tiny that it was difficult even for an eye to see.

A lot of matter had been squeezed together inside
this spot. Then, in an instant this spot exploded.
When it exploded, all the matter that was squeezed
inside it flew about. After that, the pieces of
matter joined together to first form atoms, then
from those atoms, stars, our sun, earth and the
other planets. The scientists named this explosion
the “Big Bang”. Everything in the universe was
formed as a result of this Big Bang.

Here you have to think about something very
important. Let’s imagine that you put the
pieces of a puzzle randomly
inside a balloon.

After
that, you

fill your
balloon with
air and then suddenly
pop it. That is to say
the balloon “big banged”.
What happens to the puzzle’s pieces
that you had stuffed inside the balloon?
Could these pieces form a beautiful villa or
an airport—something even you could hardly

manage—in the middle of your room? Or would they
scatter all over the room? Of course, they would
