Allah's Powerful Forces
By Ali Al-Hail
Allah (Almighty God) is the only, single limitless decision maker whose infinite power dominates absolutely, everything on earth, and beyond. Nothing occurs, arises, or transpires outside Allah's authorization.
High-ranking people who think that, they are superior, just because they who take decisions to do this, or that are not even capable of resisting the flue virus. They quite often, fill up the air with how skillful they are with having strategic visions.
Yet, they cannot guarantee that, they could live till the evening. Examples almost entirely, without a single possible exemption from every corner of the World manifest this unadulterated fact.
Allah is the superior decision maker, and the strategic vision holder. Allah permits when and how must a creature comes to life, and when, and how a creature must depart. Both life, and death are, amongst an endless list that, includes Allah's forces.
This fact of life is absolutely, irrelative. Equally, it's crucial to be absorbed. A president, or king like any other person cannot resist the sleep when it decides to attack their eyelids.
They would sit down with their aides discussing strategic, and momentous affairs till late night. But, as the sleep crawled towards their eyelids, they would leave the table in the middle of making perhaps, significant decisions, falling apart heading towards bed. It's the power of sleep, one of Allah's powerful forces.
How could a human being relinquish herself\himself by relying upon such a person, just because she\he is a president or queen\ king? If one inserts such a piece of data into a computer, the computer would give this message: revise your data. A president, or queen\king can be means, getting one into what she\he looks for, but they cannot afford delaying one's death, or sickness.
Is there a sensible person in this globe who can claim that, it's a \ the coincidence, not Allah who put our earth inside which we live "in the middle of nowhere"? Even if one bows out to the 'Bing Bang' theory, it's still Allah who created, and managed the 'Bing Bang'. It was another of Allah's forces.
There are people amongst us on this earth though, factors that, cause cancer don't apply to them, they still have a degree, or another of cancer. Even as, there are people who do things in their daily lives that, expose them to having cancer but, they don’t get the disease.
It's another powerful force of Allah (Almighty God). Allah's message here, for example that, Allah means to make human beings especially, cancer specialists feel that, they will always be exhaustible before the inexhaustible power of their creator.
The way by which an embryo formulates inside a womb as a creature project-would be through certain biological phases, is obviously, not carried out by a coincidence or nature\mother nature. Rather, a coincidence, or nature are themselves created and managed. The creator, and manager of both the latter, and the former is Allah.
Every human being, regardless who she\he is, or what she\he does; or, how capable she\he is of; whether a president or king or dust cleaner is undeniably, susceptible to death at any single split of a moment. In other words they all are bound to die. No discrimination. Death, as an Allah's force doesn’t differentiate between an old, or young, a healthy or an ill, higher ranking, or lower ranking status amongst human beings, as well as other creatures.
Statistics from World Health Organization (WHO) suggest that, nearly, 2-3% of embryos die during phases of formulation within wombs every year. While, 5% die through delivery annually. Some of these cases occur in conditions, where health, and medical care is excellent. Therefore, it's not necessarily that, the death occurs where maternity caring is poor.
Everyday life shows that, availability of good medicine, and medical system are merely, means of contributory factors have made possible by Allah. But, Allah, is the one who ultimately, takes the final decision.
It's always amazing how breast milk of a rich woman is not lesser in terms of quality to that of a poor woman. This observation proves that, it's not the quality of food, or other luxuries which determines the quality and the fluency of breastfeeding. It's Allah (Almighty God), who plants the milk in the breasts for the new born creature.
Logically, otherwise one would have to expect that, a rich woman's beast milk should be better quality for the type of food, or particular ways of lavish living she comparatively, might enjoy. On the contrary, many medical reports found out that, a poor woman's breast milk is more fluent and enriched than that of a rich woman.
Just as, most poor women are said to have been able to breastfeed their babies at least for a year or so, rich women are claimed to have substituted breastfeeding with artificial milk feeding. The latter are assumed to consider factors related to appear shaped-up in public, while the former don't tend to bother about it.
