                                                               Termites build their
                                                               nests to provide
                                                               comfort despite
                                                               changing climatic
                                                               conditions. God in-
                                                               spires them to con-
                                                               struct their nests so
                                                               as to contain every-
                                                               thing they need.
                                                               Indeed, it is He that
                                                               orders every activity
                                                               on Earth and in
                                                               heaven.








                 The nest's structure allows it to adapt to constantly changing cli-
            mactic conditions. Moreover, its organization enables it to be self-suf-

            ficient in supplying the inhabitants' needs, so that they never need to
            bring things in from outside. Each nest features a perfect ventilation
            system, specific-purpose areas (separate rooms for the young, for ma-
            ternity, for the queen's room, and so on.) and agricultural zones that
            comprise parts of the termite colonies' organization.

                 The social organization of individual termites in these cities is
            likewise excellent. The inhabitants are dedicated to their work and do
            their jobs speedily.
                 Even in termite colonies with millions of inhabitants, there is an

            established order, perfect in every aspect, that results from every
            member of the colony being meticulous in carrying out its duty. As
            with other creatures that live together, termites always help one anoth-
            er, providing excellent support in defense, communicating and finding

            nourishment.
                 Termite colonies contain three main castes or classes: there are sol-
