ALLAH revealed the Qur’an Fourteen hundreds years back. The last holy book of ALLAH is full of guidance and knowledge that invites men to the reality. This last spiritual book will remain as the only guide for humankind. The Qur’an contains within its words countless miracles which verify it to be ALLAH’s words. It also contains the amazing number of scientific truths as one of these miracles.
We must not look at the Qur’an as a science book for it is first a book of moral and religious assistance. However several scientific facts are spoken in a very concise and thoughtful way within diverse verses of the Qur’an. Scientists have now discovered these realities with the help of technologies in the period of 20th and 21 centuries. These facts could not have been known at the time of the revelation of the Qur’an and this is still another confirmation that the Qur’an is the word of ALLAH.
Rain brings a dead land back to life. The Qur’an signifies this reality in its various verses.
“We drive down from heaven clean water in order that by it We can get a dead land to life and provide drink to many of the animals and people We created.”
Besides bringing water, an important obligation for living things to the earth, the rain also has a fertilizing property. The drops of the rain, which evaporates from the sea and arrives at the clouds, are full of certain substances which refresh dead soil. These raindrops with such revitalizing properties are called surface tension droplets. These forms from the top layer less than one-tenth of a millimeter thick are found large quantities of organic waste formed from the decomposition of microscopic algae and zooplanktons. Some of these wastes bring together and soak up elements for instance phosphorous, magnesium and potassium that are hardly ever found in sea water as well as in heavy metal like copper, zinc, cobalt and lead. Seeds along with plants on the surface of the earth get great amounts of the mineral salts and elements which they require to grow from these raindrops.
The Holy Qur’an refers to this as:
“And We sent down blessed water from the sky and made gardens grow by it and grain for harvesting. “(50:9)
These salts which go down with the rain exemplify the diminutive of fertilizers, which is usually used to improve output (calcium, magnesium, potassium and the rest). Heavy metals of the type originate in aerosols produce elements which enhance productivity throughout growth and making of plant. In a few words, rain is an important fertilizer. With the fertilizer provided by rain alone within a hundred years, a soil of poor quality can obtain all the elements necessary for the plants. Forests also grow and are nourished with help from these chemicals which originate from the sea.
Thus, around 150 million tons of particles of fertilizer go down to the earth every year. Were it not for this fertilizing purpose, there would have been a smaller number of plants on the earth and the balance of being would have been disturbed. The information about the new life of plants in the verses is just one of the innumerable miraculous properties of the Holy Qur’an.
