This section highlights the examples that prove the harmony and consistency between modern scientific discoveries and principles and a Book revealed more than 14 centuries ago to an unlettered man, Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
Certainly, any object that hits the ground with that speed would cause great damage. If rain happened to fall in the same way, all harvested lands would be destroyed, residential areas, houses, and cars would be damaged, and people would not be able to walk around without taking extra precautions.
Research has revealed that babies fed on mother's milk are better protected from respiratory and digestive infections. That is because the antibodies in mother's milk provide a direct defense against infection.
Significant details emerge when we look at the information in the Qur’an concerning human creation; the term ‘spurting fluid’ in Surat at-Tariq refers to semen. The above verses describe the preliminary location of the testes in the embryo, and their embryological origin in detail, with perfect accuracy
The expression "mubarakatin zaytoonatin" in the above verse describes the olive as being "plentiful, sacred, auspicious, providing countless blessings." Olive oil, referred to in the term "zaytuha," is known as one of the most highly recommended types of oil by all experts, especially for coronary and arterial health. Its health benefits may be summarized as follows:
The Sun is made up of 70% hydrogen (H) and 28% helium (He) atoms.1 Other substances make up less than 2%. Six hundred million tons of hydrogen are converted into 596 million tons of helium in the Sun every second. The remaining 4 million tons is given off as heat and light energy. In that sense, the first thing that comes to mind when the Sun is mentioned is the letters H (hydrogen) and He (helium) that stand for the Sun.
Movement at the molecular level also declines at night. The radiation emitted by the Sun during the day activates the atoms and molecules in Earth's atmosphere and causes them to achieve higher energy levels. As darkness falls, the atoms and molecules fall to lower energy levels and start to give off radiation. These facts are, in all probability, indicated Surat al-An`am 96 and reveal yet another of the Qur'an's countless miracles.
As it is known, the chromosome has the appearance of an X. Every extension of the Z is like an arm. The middle of the X is the center where the arms hold onto one another. The environment where the chromosomes dance is a place that is composed of fibers stretched from one end of the cell to the other. This X is like an acrobat that holds these fibers from the ends (telomeres) or directly from the center (centromeres). The chromosomes stick onto these fibers just like at the nucleus of the cell.
Even a minor deviation in this equilibrium would soon give rise to a major ecological imbalance that would bring about the end of life on Earth. Yet, it never happens, and rain continues to fall every year in exactly the same measure, just as revealed in the Qur'an. The proportion of rain does not merely apply to its quantity, but also to the speed of the falling raindrops.
Groundwater, the largest source of fresh water on Earth, represents more than 90 percent of the readily available freshwater reserves and is therefore of vital importance to meeting the water needs of up to 2 billion people. It constitutes the primary source of water for up to 50 percent of the American population, a figure that rises to 95 percent in rural areas. Groundwater is also the safest and most reliable source of fresh water. At the same time, this water can be used to produce geothermal energy and save energy by using heat pumps.
