sensing sound. Despite all of this technology and the thousands of engineers
and experts who have been working on this endeavor, no sound has yet been
obtained that has the same sharpness and clarity as the sound perceived by
the ear. Think of the highest-quality hi-fi systems produced by the largest
company in the music industry. Even in these devices, when sound is
recorded some of it is lost; or when you turn on a hi-fi you always hear a
hissing sound before the music starts. However, the sounds that are the
products of the human body's technology are extremely sharp and clear. A
human ear never perceives a sound accompanied by a hissing sound or with
atmospherics as does a hi-fi; rather, it perceives sound exactly as it is, sharp
and clear. This is the way it has been since the Creation of man.
So far, no man-made visual or recording apparatus has been as sensitive
and successful in perceiving sensory data as are the eye and the ear.
However, as far as seeing and hearing are concerned, a far greater truth lies
beyond all this.

To Whom Does the Consciousness that Sees and
Hears Within the Brain Belong?
Who watches an alluring world in the brain, listens to symphonies and
the twittering of birds, and smells the rose?
The stimulations coming from a person's eyes, ears, and nose travel to
the brain as electro-chemical nerve impulses. In biology, physiology, and
biochemistry books, you can find many details about how this image forms
in the brain. However, you will never come across the most important fact:
Who perceives these electro-chemical nerve impulses as images, sounds,
odors, and sensory events in the brain? There is a consciousness in the brain
that perceives all this without feeling any need for an eye, an ear, and a
nose. To whom does this consciousness belong? Of course it does not belong
to the nerves, the fat layer, and neurons comprising the brain. This is why
Darwinist-materialists, who believe that everything is comprised of matter,
cannot answer these questions.
For this consciousness is the spirit created by Allah, which needs
neither the eye to watch the images nor the ear to hear the sounds.
Furthermore, it does not need the brain to think.
