The Real Essence of Matter                241



                 Certainly there is no hidden thing in either heaven or Earth which is not in
                 a Clear Book. (Surat an-Naml: 75)



                 Knowing the Real Essence of Matter
                 People who contemplate their surroundings conscientiously and
            wisely realise that everything in the universe—both living and non-liv-
            ing—must have been created. So the question now is "Who is the creator of
            all these things?"
                 It is evident that "the fact of creation", which reveals itself in every
            aspect of the universe, cannot be an outcome of the universe itself. For
            example, a bug could not have created itself. The solar system could not
            have created or organised itself. Neither plants, humans, bacteria, erythro-
            cytes (red-blood corpuscles), nor butterflies could have created themselves.
            The possibility that these could all have originated "by chance" is not even
            imaginable.
                 We therefore arrive at the following conclusion: Everything that we see
            has been created. But none of the things that we see can be "creators" them-
            selves. The Creator is different from and superior to all that we see with
            our eyes, a superior power, invisible but Whose existence and attrib-
            utes are revealed in everything that exists.
                 This is the point at which those who deny the exis-
            tence of Allah demur. They are conditioned not to
            believe in His existence unless they see Him
            with their own eyes. They may disregard the
            fact of "creation", but they cannot ignore
            the actuality of "creation" manifested
            all throughout the universe and find
            themselves forced to prove —
            falsely—that the universe
            and the living things in
            it have not been creat-
            ed. Evolutionary the-
            ory is a key example
            of   their   vain
            endeavours to this
            end.
