The Oxygen-Producing


                      Photosynthesis of Bacteria


                     Evolutionists’ claims that single-celled bacteria, are primitive
                 organisms are completely imaginary. Bacteria that achieve photo-
                 synthesis are one of the most important refutations of this claim. The

                 cyanobacterium has been performing photosynthesis for 3 billion
                 years, and there are systems in that bacterium whose workings are
                 still not fully understood.
                     Various species of bacteria don’t use water for photosynthesis;
                 instead they oxidize the organic and inorganic molecules around
                 them. Photosynthesis without oxygen remains a great mystery too,
                 for scientists who have yet fully understood photosynthesis with
                 oxygen.
                     There is also great wisdom appointed by Allah in creating such

                 different varieties of photosynthesis. Oxygen is indispensable for
                 marine and terrestrial creatures, and He has instituted matchless
                 systems for the production of oxygen in all environments.
                 Moreover, these systems possess such advanced technology that
                 their workings remain a mystery even in the 21st century.
                     When we examine the other characteristics of bacteria we also
                 witness the fact that Allah has created the world with billions of in-

                 dispensable interconnected balances. Bacteria constitute the basis of
                                             the ecological system and permit the
                                               level of gasses in the atmosphere to
                                               remain stable. They are one of the
                                               first links in the food chain of
                                               countless organisms. With their fea-
                                               tures and functions, living things
                                               from the greatest to the smallest,
                                               prove the existence of an Almighty

                                               Creator.
