Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)
elephants are welcomed by other members of the
herd with great love and compassion. If the mother ele-
phant dies, another elephant with milk will suckle the calf. For
the first six months, mother elephants follow her calf every-
where and continually make sounds expressing their connec-
tion with each other. If the calf makes a sound indicating that it
is in the slightest distress or danger, the entire herd will come
to see what the trouble is. This is quite effective in dissuading
an enemy. But how do they know that they should do these
things, given that they have no intelligence or determination of
their own? This amazing sense of self-sacrifice found among all
animals is one of the miracles of Allah’s creation and reminds
us that we should ponder over such things: “There is instruc-
tion for you in cattle” (Surat an-Nahl, 66).
