                  This book contains examples of miracles that have occurred
              from the first creation of the universe and continue to occur to
              the present day. We have arranged these miracles into three
              main subjects:
                  1. The Universe
                  2. Our Solar System and the World
                  3. Living Things
                  The purpose of this book is to give the reader a feel for

              God’s infinite power and artistry by showing some of the cre-
              ation miracles in the universe. Also, it is also hoped that this
              book will lead to an awareness that everything around us, when
              looked at through the eyes of wisdom, is a miracle of God.



                   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 under-
              stood. 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 cre-
              ation 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)
