Page 132 - The Miracle in the Ant

e have given you some examples of the effects of Allah’s art of creation
on a living species only a few centimetres long. It is correct to say "some
examples" because there are hundreds more, relating to ants, which can
be listed. However, each one of the listed examples is in itself a matter
for profound reflection.
It must not be forgotten that life forms exist all over the earth. The
life bestowed by Allah on small ants, which have a complicated system
and an extensive range of activities, has also been created for living be-
ings in each square milimetre. Single-celled organisms, insects, wild an-
imals and plants are all created with perfect programming, like the ants.
All these miracles of creation are things which human beings do not
even think about during their daily lives, or they just look at them with-
out comprehending them.
With this book, we have tried to dispel the deep mist with which
modern society covers the people’s eyes. Our goal is to present anew
the proof of Allah’s eternal existence to those who have forgotten Him
because they have been too preoccupied all their lives with worldly mat-
ters, such as jobs, houses, and financial concerns. It is also our goal to
give to those who do think of Him, new material to reflect upon. Both
these tasks are very important. And as a major step towards their fulfil-
ment, we have analyzed in this text the miracles of creation, so that the
One Who is the mastermind behind them may come to be known and
appreciated. Allah explains the significance of this as follows in our on-
ly indicator of the true path, the Qur’an:

And the earth- We have spread it out, and set thereon mountains
standing firm, and produced therefrom every kind of beautiful
