Islam and Revelation
Islam
And of His
signs is that He created you from
the dust; now
behold you are human beings,
ranging
widely.
And of His
signs is that He created for you,
of yourselves,
spouses that you might find
repose in
them, and He has planted love and
kindness in
your hearts. Surely there are signs
in this for
people who reflect.
And of His
signs is the creation of the heavens
and the earth
and the variety of your
tongues and
hues, surely there are signs in this
for people who
have knowledge.
And of His
signs is your slumber by night and day,
and your
seeking of His bounty. Surely
there are
signs in this for people who hear.
The lightning
which He shows you for fear
and a hope is
yet another of His signs; He sends
down water
from the sky, thereby reviving the
earth after it
is dead. Surely in this there are
signs for
people who understand.
And of His
signs is that space and the earth
stand firm by
His command; then when He
calls you,
suddenly, from the earth you shall
emerge.
Islam. Qur'an 30.20-25
This follows the same theme as
the other great religions. Nature itself
points to someone who is greater namely God!
I like the way this passage brings in other aspects of nature such as
planting love and kindness in our hearts. š
