Can you draw some-
            thing you have never
            seen before? This is
            unlikely because only
            Allah can create
            something without a
            prior example. Even
            the things artists
            make up out of their
            heads are made up of
            things they have
            already seen.



            Sun, a mountain, a few green trees, a rainbow and the

            sea. However, have you ever thought that it would be
            impossible for you to draw a tree if you had never seen

            one? Think of a person who is blind from birth. He can
                                                                                     21
            only know that the Sun is round and bright, if some-

            body describes it to him. He can only have an idea

            about something if he sees it.

                  Dear Children! As these examples show, only

            Allah has the power to create something without a
            prior example. The Qur'an, the Book Allah sent to all

            humanity as a guide, informs us:

                  H He  is  the  Originator  of  the  heavens  and  the

                                                                a

                  Now, it is time to learn how Allah created the
            universe. You should be curious to hear how such a
            great event took place.
