Page 56 - The Miracle of Termites

Harun Yahya

is God Who has created the whole universe in all its perfection. He has
the infinite power to know the needs of every creature on Earth and
endows them with the systems they need.
He has inspired termites to know what they must eat; He created
protozoa for the benefit of termites, and placed these creatures within

their tiny bodies to ensure their survival. In the Qur'an, God tells us

There is no creature on the Earth which is not dependent upon
God for its provision. He knows where it lives and where it
dies. They are all in a Clear Book. (Surah Hud: 6)

colony without fail with the nourishment they need. Especially the
queen and soldier termites would go without food if the workers did

Workers give the

sects, like all other
creatures in the
world, proclaim
God as Creator.
