planets from scattering into the freezing cold of outer space
is the balance between the Sun’s gravitational pull and the
planet’s centrifugal force. The Sun’s immense gravitational
force attracts the planets, and the centrifugal force produced
by their rotation gives them a specific degree of resistance to
its gravitational pull. If the velocity of a planets’ rotation
were less, they would be pulled toward the Sun and ex-

plode.
The opposite might also be possible. If the planets ro-
tated at a higher velocity, the Sun’s gravitational pull would
be unable to hold them and they would scatter into outer
space. However, this very delicate balance has enabled our
solar system to survive. It is important to note that this bal-
ance is not the same for each planet, for they are not the

same distance from the Sun. In addition, their masses are
quite different, which means that each one must have a dif-
ferent velocity of rotation so that they do not collide with the
Sun or disperse into outer space.
Such astronomers such as Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)
and Galileo (1564-1642), who worked to uncover our Solar
System’s extraordinarily sensitive balance, stated many
times that it indicated a very obvious design and constitut-
ed evidence for Allah’s sovereignty over the universe, all of

which serves humanity. It shows that He created the dis-
tance between the Sun and the heavenly bodies on the one
hand, and Earth on the other, in a perfect balance. This is cer-
tainly a sign of Allah’s mercy toward His servants.
