ur universe is characterized by a perfect balance,
                              harmony, and order, yet another proof of Allah’s
                              endless power and might as Ruler of the universe.
                            In the Qur’an, Allah tells us that this is a truth that
            human beings must ponder:
                 Are you stronger in structure, or is heaven? He built it. He raised
                 its vault high and made it level. He darkened its night and
                 brought forth its morning light. After that He smoothed out

                 Earth. (Surat an-Nazi’at, 27-30)
                 People must be aware that our Lord created the universe’s sys-
            tem and balance in the best way possible, so as to make them meet
            the requirements of human life. Being aware of it, humanity must
            think about it and learn a lesson from it:

                 He has made night and day subservient to you, and the Sun and
                  Moon and stars, all subject to His command. There are certainly
                   Signs in that for people who use their intellect. (Surat an-
                         Nahl, 12)
                                 In another verse it says:

                               He makes night merge into day
                                    and day merge into
