M MIRACLE IN THE EYE

Of these components, if only one—the lens, for example—were miss-
ing, the eye would become a useless lump of tissue. Again, it would again
be rendered useless if any two of them—for example, the pupil and the
lens, exchanged places. In short, the eye's structure is the result of a very
special planning. These components' harmonious coexistence and coopera-
tion, which are impossible to have appeared by themselves as a result of ac-
cidents, have one single valid and logical explanation: Each of the eye's
components is created with supreme intelligence, which belongs to God.
Accepting such an obvious truth is the first step that leads to a per-
son's eternal life. This book, along with displaying the truth of creation, in-
tends to guide you in taking those steps towards your salvation.

Intelligent Design, in other words Creation

In order to create, God has no need to design

It’s important that the word “design” be properly understood. That
God has created a flawless design does not mean that He first made a plan
and then followed it. God, the Lord of the Earth and the heavens, needs no
“designs” in order to create. God is exalted above all such deficiencies. His
planning and creation take place at the same instant.
Whenever God wills a thing to come about, it is enough for Him just
to say, "Be!"
As verses of the Qur’an tell us:

His command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and
it is. (Qur'an, 36: 82)
[God is] the Originator of the heavens and Earth. When He decides
on something, He just says to it, “Be!” and it is. (Qur'an, 2: 117)
