THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 11th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Tuesday, 23rd January 2024). WHO CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE. Bismillah.

Allah asks mankind in the Qur'an:

"Were the creation created out of nothing? Or were they themselves the creators? Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they are sure of nothing! (Qur'an 52:35-36).  Allahu Akbar. 

Most deny or ignore the existence of The Creator because they can not see HIM.  However, there are many things which we do not see, yet we believe in their existence example air, soul etc. The basic fact is that the eyes the Creator gave us on earth are not capable of seeing HIM. He will recreate the eyes capable of seeing when we obey HIM and enter HIS eternal garden, Paradise. Can you look at the sun in its quarter brightness, not even half? No way, so how do you expect to see the Creator of the sun?

Let us imagine ourselves standing in a laboratory stocked with beakers and test tubes containing all sorts of chemical compounds. Then, suppose an earthquake has just occurred upsetting the shelved vessels, sending their contents spilling onto the laboratory floor. It would be a very strange coincidence indeed to find new life forms generating themselves where none had existed before.

Let's hear from Swiss mathematician Charles Eugene Jai. In an experiment aimed at answering this very question, Jai set out to calculate the probability of the random formation of a single protein molecule. Jai 'helped' the situation by assuming the existence of formative elements and by selecting a protein consisting of only 2,000 atoms (An average protein might consist of 32,000 atoms or more). Jai also assumed that the protein would consist of only 2 unique formative atoms.

He determined the value of probability by considering the size of the material and the time necessary for the random formation to occur. He calculated that the probability of forming even a simplified protein molecule was approximately 1 in 5 x 10 e+320 !

The size of the material necessary to produce that almost zero probability would have been a sphere with a diameter of approximately 6 x 10 e+176 miles - about 10 e+63 times bigger than the imagined size of the universe. Finally, the time necessary for the molecule to form was 10 e+243 billion years. This was far greater than the supposed age of the universe - only about 2 billion years.

He concluded that the universe was neither old enough nor big enough to allow for the random formation of even a simple protein molecule. It was impossible for the universe to have created itself, and for life to randomly form. He concluded that there is definitely a super Creator who created the universe. Allahu Akbar. 

ALLAH said in the Qur'an which means:

"I shall show them MY Signs on the horizons and within themselves, until it becomes clear to them that it is the Truth. Is it not sufficient that the Lord is Witness over all things? (Qur'an 41:53). Allahu Akbar. 

They call any natural happenings as mother nature but failed to describe what they mean by mother nature Allahu Akbar. Alhamdulillah for guiding us to be Muslims. May ALLAH open the heart and eyes of the disbelievers to witness and taste the sweetness of being a Muslim. Aameen.
