the plug would never fit the socket. The distance between the plug's
prongs and the distance between the socket's openings are also the same.

If they were not the same, the plug would never fit in the socket.
However, these features alone would not be enough to establish the
compatibility of the plug and the socket. If the plug were very long, this

would again be a failure in terms of compatibility. If the prongs of the
plug were non-metallic, they would fail to conduct the electricity in the
socket. If the plug were not made of plastic, then every time you

held it you would receive an electric shock. As you see, a lack of
compatibility in even the simplest device renders that device
inoperative. This means that the same person designed the plug

and the socket. And he designed them to be compatible with one
another. He made them functional. It is unlikely that the

metal and plastic could have come together by coincidence
and that they were planned separately and independently of
each other, because in that case you could never find a socket

and plug compatible with one another.
The compatibility of living things is far more complicated than

the compatibility in a socket and plug, because living things contain
thousands of systems and organs that have to co-exist harmoniously and
work together flawlessly. Any attempt to write down these systems one

by one would fill a library of hundreds of books. Therefore, in the
following pages we will dwell in brief on these flawless features of the
living things created by Allah:
