A A Chain of Miracles

Mankind has existed for hundred thousands of years unaware of
this miraculous system and has scarcely begun to learn the de-
tails of the universe’s magnificence. Man’s abilities of compre-
hension, as the only intelligent being on Earth, are exceeded by
these miracles, which clearly prove the existence of the Creator.
It is truly surprising that some people cannot recognize
God’s existence in all this magnificence. They do not appreciate
God’s infinite wisdom and knowledge, and do not comprehend
that God governs everything and can create and recreate every-
thing. God reveals:
Does not man see that We created him from a drop yet there
he is, an open antagonist! He makes likenesses of Us and
forgets his own creation, saying, “Who will give life to
bones when they are decayed?” Say “He Who made them in
the first place will bring them back to life. He has total
knowledge of each created thing; He Who produces fire for
you from green trees so that you use them to light your
fires.” Does He Who created the heavens and Earth not
have the power to create the same again? Yes indeed! He is
the Creator, the All-Knowing. His command when He de-
sires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and it is. Glory be to
Him Who has the Dominion of all things in His Hand. To
Him you will be returned. (Qur’an, 36:77-83)
If you are surprised at their blindness, what could be more
surprising than their words: “What, when we are turned to
dust, shall we then be created all anew?” These are the peo-
ple who reject their Lord. Such people have iron collars
round their necks. Such people are the Companions of the
Fire, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. (Qur’an, 13:5)
