The holy verse:
God be He exalted says: (and there is not a thing but glorifies His Praise. But you understand not their glorification. Truly, He is ever Forbearing, Oft-Forgiving.)(Sûrat Al-Isrâ’- verse 44).
The explanation of the verse:
Atheists used to deny that verse because they are asking, how can a creature like plant to glorify Allah almighty?
In the holy verse Allah almighty tells us about unseen fact that every thing in universe is glorifying Allah whether that thing is human, animal, plant or solid.
Scientific fact:
Scientists had studied the plants for long time to give us the following marvelous results.
1. Plants emit sonic vibrations: scientists proved that the DNA is shaking and emits sounds inside each cell. That sound is Incomprehensible but it can be measured and recorded by accurate tools. It could be some kind of glorification but we don’t understand, God says: (But you understand not their glorification.).
2. Plants have brain and nervous system to defend itself: German scientists had observed the tobacco. They noticed that when an insect starts to eat a plant, the last one emits the poisoned nicotine to force the insect to runaway.
3. The plant emits nice smell: Scientists confirmed that some plants when exposed to an external danger from insects, they emits a nice smell to attract big insects to eat the small ones so that they will be saved from being eaten.
Glory to Allah!!!!!
The point of inimitability:
After demonstrating the holy verse and mentioning the latest discovery by scientists we have to ask ourselves: who taught those plants that way of defending? Who exploited these methods for that job? Who created those methods?
Indeed He is Allah who said:
(Our Lord is He who gave to each thing its form and nature, then guided it aright.) (Sûrat Tâ-Hâ- verse 50).
