kilometer, reaching probably 4,500° Celsius (8,132° Fahrenheit) at its

the surface the temperature reaches 60° Celsius (140° Fahrenheit),
we can grasp the dimensions of this threat. Despite this, however, all
living beings lead their lives in absolute security, unaware of the
magma boiling underneath them.
Clearly, Allah creates a perfect order on Earth’s surface, which
actually shelters an internal ball of fire. Thus, there is no room for
any randomness. He holds sway over the heavens and Earth and
protects all living beings in the universe against all threats, whether
known to them or not. Meanwhile, He places the fetus in a very pro-
tected place. As these examples show, many things that seem nor-
mal to us are, in actuality, manifestations of His mercy and divine
protection over His servants, for there is no other reason for the ex-
istence of such order and unity in the universe. Allah is the best of
protectors.
