does the mosquito manage to see?
Mosquitoes are able to see the living things

around them with the heat that they radiate,
which is a kind of light invisible to us. Since this
type of sight is not reliant on visible light, they
can find our blood vessels even during the
darkness of the night.
This is a unique talent. Due to this, scientists

were able to invent a camera that captures images
by means of heat. Even if it is dark, this camera
images the surroundings as if it were daylight.
Can you imagine? People copying a small
mosquito! Could a mosquito possibly know more
than a human, especially could it know more than
a scientist? Of course not! Allah has given the
mosquito extraordinary abilities. People are in

awe of these extraordinary talents and try to copy
them. They invented the aeroplane by copying
birds. People have copied many other things after
seeing them in nature. For now, let us continue the
adventure of the mosquito.

blood is so meticulous that it astonishes people.
