heart, brain and lungs, would be clogged with clots, which would
inevitably bring death.
In reality, this shows us one more time that the human body is
flawlessly designed. It is impossible to explain the clotting system of
the blood through the hypothesis of coincidence or "gradual
development" as asserted by the theory of evolution. Such a
carefully engineered and calculated system as this is indisputable
evidence of the perfection in creation. Allah, Who created us and
placed us on this earth, has created our bodies with this system,
which protects us in many cases of injury that we encounter
throughout our lives.
The clotting of blood is very important not only for visible
injuries but also for the ruptures of capillaries in our bodies that
happen all the time. Although unnoticed, there are continuously
small internal bleedings. When hitting an arm against a door or
sitting down too heavily, hundreds of capillaries are ruptured.
These bleedings are immediately stopped by means of the clotting
system and the capillaries are reconstructed in their normal
condition. If the impact is more serious, then the internal bleeding is
stronger, giving way to the bruising commonly termed "turning
purple". A human lacking the coagulation system would have to
avoid even the smallest impacts. Haemophilic patients, having
defective coagulation systems, live their lives like that. Patients with
advanced haemophilia unfortunately do not survive too long. Even
small internal bleedings, inflicted by a simple slip and fall, could be
enough to end their lives. Due to this simple reality, each individual
should consider the miracle of creation within his/her own body
and be thankful to Allah, Who created that body flawlessly. This
body is a blessing to us from Allah, a single cell of which we cannot
even reproduce. When addressing mankind, Allah says:

"We created you, so why do you not confirm the truth?"
(Surat al-Waqi'a: 57)
