Proofs of Allah's Oneness abound in the Creation of the Heavens and the EarthAllah reminds us of the creating of the higher and lower worlds,وَالسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـهَا(We constructed the heaven.) meaning, `We made it as a high roof, protected from falling,'بِأَيْدٍ(with Hands), meaning, with strength, according to `Abdullah bin `Abbas, Mujahid, Qatadah, Ath-Thawri and several others,وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ(Verily, We are able to extend the vastness of space thereof.) means, `We made it vast and We brought its roof higher without pillars to support it, and thus it is hanging independently.'وَالاٌّرْضَ فَرَشْنَـهَا(And We have made the earth a Firash), meaning, `We have made it a resting place for the created,'فَنِعْمَ الْمَـهِدُونَ(how excellent a spreader (thereof) are We!), meaning, `We spread it for its inhabitants,'وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ(And of everything We have created pairs,) meaning, all the created are in pairs, the heaven and earth, night and day, sun and moon, land and sea, light and darkness, faith and disbelief, death and life, misery and happiness, Paradise and Fire, in addition to the animals and plants. The statement of Allah the Exalted,لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ(that you may remem- ber.) and know that the Creator, Allah, is One without partners,فَفِرُّواْ إِلَى اللَّهِ(So, flee to Allah.) meaning, seek shelter with Him and trust in Him in all of your affairs,إِنِّى لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌوَلاَ تَجْعَلُواْ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَـهاً ءَاخَرَ(Verily, I am a plain warner to you from Him. And set not up any other god along with Allah.) do not associate any partners with Him,إِنِّى لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ(Verily, I am a plain warner to you from Him.)
تخلیق کائنات ٭٭زمین و آسمان کی پیدائش کا ذکر فرما رہا ہے کہ ” ہم نے آسمان کو اپنی قوت سے پیدا کیا ہے اسے محفوظ اور بلند چھت بنا دیا ہے “۔ سیدنا ابن عباس رضی اللہ عنہما، مجاہد، قتادہ، ثوری رحمہ اللہ علیہم اور بہت سے مفسرین نے یہی کہا ہے کہ ” ہم نے آسمانوں کو اپنی قوت سے بنایا ہے اور ہم کشادگی والے ہیں اس کے کنارے ہم نے کشادہ کئے ہیں اور بےستون اسے کھڑا کر دیا ہے اور قائم رکھا ہے، زمین کو ہم نے اپنی مخلوقات کے لیے بچھونا بنا دیا ہے اور بہت ہی اچھا بچھونا ہے، تمام مخلوق کو ہم نے جوڑ جوڑ پیدا کیا ہے، جیسے آسمان زمین، دن رات، خشکی تری، اجالا اندھیرا، ایمان کفر، موت حیات، بدی نیکی، جنت دوزخ، یہاں تک کہ حیوانات اور نباتات کے بھی جوڑے ہیں یہ اس لیے کہ تمہیں نصیحت حاصل ہو تم جان لو کہ ان کا سب کا خالق اللہ ہی ہے اور وہ لاشریک اور یکتا ہے پس تم اس کی طرف دوڑو اپنی توجہ کا مرکز صرف اسی کو بناؤ اپنے تمام تر کاموں میں اسی کی ذات پر اعتماد کرو تو تم سب کو صاف صاف آگاہ کر دینے والا ہوں خبردار اللہ کے ساتھ کسی کو شریک نہ ٹھہرانا میرے کھلم کھلا خوف دلانے کا لحاظ رکھنا “۔صفحہ نمبر8825
آیت 49{ وَمِنْ کُلِّ شَیْئٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَیْنِ لَعَلَّکُمْ تَذَکَّرُوْنَ۔ } ”اور ہم نے ہر شے کے جوڑے بنائے ہیں شاید کہ تم نصیحت اخذ کرو۔“ ”جوڑوں“ کی تخلیق میں ہمارے لیے کس کس پہلو سے نصیحت کا سامان ہے ؟ یہ جاننے کے لیے تحقیق کا میدان بہت وسیع ہے۔ یہاں پر اس حوالے سے صرف یہ نکتہ سمجھ لیجیے کہ اس مفہوم کی آیات آخرت سے متعلق عقلی دلیل فراہم کرتی ہیں۔ یعنی جب ہر شے کا جوڑا ہے تو دنیا کا بھی تو جوڑا ہونا چاہیے اور ظاہر ہے دنیاکا جوڑا آخرت ہے۔
Proofs of Allah's Oneness abound in the Creation of the Heavens and EarthThe preceding verses mentioned the reality of the Hereafter and the Judgment Day, and the punishment of those who denied the reality. The present set of verses reaffirm the perfect power of Allah, reminding us about the reality of the Day of Resurrection and allaying the doubt and suspicion of those who deny the reality. It proves the oneness of Allah and reiterates emphatically to believe in the Messenger ﷺ .بَنَيْنَاهَا بِأَيْدٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ (And the sky was built by Us with might, and indeed, We are the One who expands.... 51:47). The word aidin, according to Sayyidna Ibn ` Abbas ؓ ، means strength or power in this context.
🔬 Scientific Connections & Modern Discoveries in Surah Adh-Dhariyat : 49
Empirical observations, cosmic phenomena, and biological facts correlated with this Ayah.
🧬 Biology
Scientists have finally solved a nearly 30-year-old mystery surrounding two unusual molecules found in rye pollen that once showed an intriguing ability to help animals fight tumors. By determining their exact 3D structures, researchers have unlocked the blueprint needed to investigate how these natural compounds interact with the immune system and which parts may be responsible for their cancer-fighting effects.
Scientists discovered ancient wolves on a tiny Baltic island where they could only have been brought by humans, suggesting an unexpectedly close relationship between people and wolves thousands of years ago. Evidence indicates the wolves were fed, possibly cared for, and may even have been managed or selectively bred long before modern ideas of domestication.
A hidden population of South African leopards has revealed a remarkable evolutionary story. Researchers analyzing entire leopard genomes discovered that the Cape Floristic Region’s leopards are not only much smaller than most African leopards, but also genetically distinct after being isolated for roughly 20,000 years. Surprisingly, despite their small population, they have retained much of their genetic diversity.
For decades, scientists thought royal jelly was the secret ingredient that turned an ordinary honeybee larva into a queen. New research reveals the process is far more remarkable: young worker bees create special “royal cribs” made from customized wax, carefully regulate warmth and humidity, and dedicate entire teams of attendants to raising future queens.
Researchers rebuilt long-extinct versions of a crucial enzyme that helps make nitrogen available to life, offering an unprecedented glimpse into Earth’s distant past. The breakthrough could aid the search for extraterrestrial life while helping scientists tackle future food-production challenges on Earth and beyond.
The Quran (36:36; 51:49; 43:12) states that Allah created all things in pairs (zawjayn) — which we would recognize as particles/antiparticles, positive/negative charges, male/female at the biological level. The concept of particle-antiparticle pairs (antimatter) was predicted by Paul Dirac in 1928 and confirmed in 1932. The Quran's general principle of duality in creation is broader than any specific scientific application but establishes the framework within which such discoveries fit.
