universe and all of life does not (Allah is beyondthat) stem from any
lack of explanation or lack of finding an answer to what went before
it. In that case, that would require an explanation only to what was
before and that all life and the universe were random, yet there is no
such randomness on Earth (surely Allah is beyond that).
The whole universe and the living things in it point to one thing.
Examination of them reveals something very extraordinary. The
equilibrium in the universe, the order on Earth, life, a single cell
ina living thing or even a single atom all speak of the extraordinary
features they possess. They all speak of an intelligence. They say
that this intelligence is far superior to anything you can see or
know. They indicate a sublime Power that creates worlds within worlds
and indicates intelligence and splendor even inside theatom. And that
conclusion leads us to the existence of Almighty Allah.
…those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their sides,
and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth: "Our
Lord,You have not created this for nothing. Glory beto You! So
safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire." (Surah Al 'Imran, 191)
There is no need to go back to the beginnings of the universe to see
that. A single cell, a single hair or even a single atom, are
sufficient to see the existence and greatness of Allah and thus to
believe. Of course the creation of the universe through the Big Bang
is a major event, by means of which Allah reveals His might and
sublime power.
The idea that "this is not part of science" is a nonsensical one.
Scienceexists so we can investigate Allah's creations. It enables us
to see the greatness of the message they bear. Itenables us to better
comprehend the greatness and might of Allah.
