                 can also become warm. Just as the
                 egg is about to hatch, the mother penguin returns
                 from hunting. She feeds her baby with the food that
                 she has stored in her throat. To prevent the baby
                 from freezing, the mother and father penguins
                 carry it in between their feet and keep it
                 warm with the fur of their abdomen. As
                 you can see, Allah has given these lovely
                 creatures some exquisite features. Allah
                 has created the penguin with a body that
                 protects it from the cold, and has also
                 made it very devoted. Because they are so
                 dedicated, they take wonderful care of
                 their offspring. This feature has been given
                 to the penguins millions of years ago. The
                 penguins that have lived before and the ones
                 that are living now have not changed a bit when it
                 comes to the devotion that they display.
