22:73, Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) said in the Quran: “O humanity! A lesson is set forth, so listen to it ˹carefully˺: those ˹idols˺ you invoke besides Allah can never create ˹so much as˺ a fly, even if they ˹all˺ were to come together for that. And if a fly were to snatch anything away from them, they cannot ˹even˺ retrieve it from the fly. How powerless are those who invoke and those invoked!” - Meaning: The insignificance of the Idols and the foolishness of their Worshippers. Here Allah points out the insignificance of the idols and the foolishness of those who worship them. The fly has been chosen for this example, for four reasons: its worthlessness, its weakness, its repugnance, and its abundance (Qurtubi). 

The beauty of the similitude apart, the Qur’anic statement throws a challenge that can never be answered. 

Encyclopaedia Britannica, the Bible of the Western world, offers four definitions for life. This should tell us something about the confusion among the scientists over the issue. The problem is that life is not something that can be isolated: say in a test tube. It can only be seen in action, operating from behind living systems. What is it in reality, whether of the higher type as in humans, or of the lower type as in other biological organisms – after the soul has been denied existence – is something no scientist knows and will never know. #surah #seerah #ayat #quran #fly #religion #animation #dhikr #salah #hindu #christian #jew #muslim #mayan #chinese #islamicart #teal #buddha #truth #insects #amber #rogerdeakins #cinematography #shortfilm #aiartcommunity #aianimation #midjourney #musliminfluencer #science
