perform specific tasks. Even if we do not witness its being constructed,
it is still clear that the computer was designed by an engineer with its
functions in mind. No one can claim that these components combined
together haphazardly. But the brain is a marvel of design, with a pro-
cessing capacity far greater than a computer. Therefore, considering this
design, we can realize that the brain has a Designer with great breadth

of knowledge. Every stage in the creation of Man is an example of the in-
finite knowledge of our Lord, a manifestation of His words in the
Qur’an, “ “We may make things clear to you” (Surat al-Hajj, 5). This is re-
vealed further in verses:
O Humanity! If you are in any doubt about the Rising, know that We
created you from dust then from a drop of sperm then from a clot of
blood then from a lump of flesh, formed yet unformed, so We may
make things clear to you. We make whatever We want stay in the
womb until a specified time and then We bring you out as children
so that you can reach your full maturity. Some of you die and some
of you revert to the lowest form of life so that, after having knowl-
edge, they then know nothing at all. And you see the Earth dead and
barren; then when We send down water onto it it quivers and swells
and sprouts with luxuriant plants of every kind. That is because God
is the Real and gives life to the dead and has power over all things.
(Surat al-Hajj, 5-6)

Chance Cannot Have Brought About the Regions
Comprising the Brain

The more we examine details regarding the brain, the more illogical
all claims of evolution appear to be. The brain possesses a number of
components all working together in perfect coordination. Everything
with which a human being deals with is transferred through a series of
highly complex physical and chemical processes to be analyzed in the
relevant regions of the brain. And then the decision is made as to what
reaction will be taken. These processes require a chain of exceptionally
complex and detailed stages, but we feel none of them.
