each of the 100 trillion cells in your body are capable of learning a mil-
lion pages by heart, how many pages could you –an intelligent individ-

ual– learn during the course of your lifetime? Any rational person will
conclude that the cell is the work of a superior mind and superior
knowledge. It is impossible, as evolutionists maintain, for DNA to have
arisen by chance in one single cell, let alone in an organism consisting
of billions. Almighty Allah (is the Creator of all things. Allah reveals in
one verse of the Qur'an as follows:

They do not measure Allah with His true measure. Allah is All-Strong,
Almighty. (Surat al-Hajj, 74)

The computer is the most advanced technology through which
large quantities of information can be stored. The information pos-
sessed by room-sized computers 50 years ago can now be stored on
small discs. Yet the latest computer technology, developed by human
intelligence as the result of centuries of accumulated knowledge and
many years of effort, comes nowhere near to approaching the data-stor-
age capacity of DNA.
A strand of DNA is only one 2 millionth of a millimeter in thick-
ness. Despite this extraordinary thinness and the fact it is 4 meters
(13.12 feet) long, DNA strips never become tangled up with one anoth-
er. Thanks to its special structure, the DNA is folded up perfectly inside
the cell's nucleus - an example of incomparable engineering.
One of the main goals of computer engineers is to be able to store
as much information as possible in as small a space as possible. At pre-
sent, the highest level storage capacity on Earth is that belonging to
52
DNA molecule. In his book The Road Ahead, Bill Gates, the president
of Microsoft, writes:
