HARUN YAHYA (ADNAN OKTAR)


              not knowing why they produce an abundance of much
              honey, nor could they possess the intelligence to construct
              the orderly hexagonal honeycombs, each of which is a
              miracle of design and mathematics. It is Allah, to Whom all
              beings are subjected, that causes bees accomplish these feats.

              That bees act in compliance with Allah's command is related
              in the Qur'an as follows:
                  Your Lord revealed to the bees: "Build dwellings in the
                  mountains and the trees, and also in the structures
                  which men erect. Then eat from every kind of fruit and
                  travel the paths of your Lord, which have been made
                  easy for you to follow" From inside them comes a drink
                  of varying colors, containing healing for mankind.
                  There is certainly a Sign in that for people who reflect.
                  (Surat an-Nahl: 68-69)
                  Bees' compliance with Allah's commands in the manner
              in which they conduct themselves is not an anomaly. Allah
              provides us with this example to allow us to understand that
              all beings, including man, act by His Will. In the Qur'an
              Allah indicates that this is a sign for those who reflect. All
              beings are entirely subjected to His command:

                  Everyone in the heavens and earth belongs to Him. All
                  are submissive to Him. (Surat ar-Rum: 26)

                  Some  people consider satan to be a being apart from and
              independent of Allah (Truly, Allah is above what they
              ascribe to Him). ome supersititious religions also attribute
              individual power to satan. However, both opinions are
              incorrect. Satan, as well as the unbelievers who follow him,
              are subjected to Allah's Will. Allah created satan to put man
