In the Name of Allah, The All-Merciful and Most Merciful

The main source of energy on Earth is the Sun.
However, human beings and animals cannot use this energy
directly, because they do not have the necessary systems to
use this energy as it is, and so must depend upon the nutri-
ents produced by plants. All of the energy that these raw
materials provide to our cells are actually the Sun’s energy
given to us by plants. For example, when we sip tea or eat
some bread, we acquire a bit of the Sun’s energy. The

strength in our muscles is just another form of this energy.
By performing complex operations on this energy, plants
store molecules inside themselves for both human beings
and animals. They eat plants, which become
their energy packages of stored energy from
the Sun. Plants produce their own nutrients
and, unlike the cells in human beings and an-

imals, can use the Sun’s energy directly. Thus,
each plant’s cells transform this energy into
energy that human beings and animals can
acquire by eating them.
