Signs on Earth

One verse tells us that God "created everything and determined it most exactly" (Qur'an, 25:2). There are countless signs present on Earth of this perfect order. All living and non-living things and systems on Earth clearly display this order, proving with their perfect structure that they could not possibly have come into existence by accident or coincidence, but were created.

The distance between the Sun and the Earth, the ideal levels of gases in the atmosphere, the rays of sunshine which are perfect for allowing photosynthesis, the fixing effect of mountains on the Earth, the formation of night and day, the fact that water is so suitable for life, the presence of animals, fruits, vegetables, clouds, wind, the amazing features of our body cells, the structure of DNA… All of these are just a few examples of God's superior artistry, showing us His limitless power.
