A call to reason
Throughout the course of this film you have been watching, we have been considering some of the
extraordinary features of leaves and have briefly touched on the subject of photosynthesis.
The aim in providing this information was to show that plants and the flawless systems
they possess could not have come into being by chance.
Plants are entities with no hands, eyes or brains.
Plants lack such features of consciousness and reason as decision making, the use of
free will and lack the possession of knowledge.
Yet as we have seen in what we have described so far, the characteristics of plants and the
function they perform require enormous intelligence and consciousness.
Indeed, plants all over the world successfully carry out processes in as little as a billionth
of a second, whereas rational, conscious and knowledgeable human beings with advanced technology
cannot replicate nor even understand such a process.
Of course, plants have been behaving under the inspiration of Omniscient God, our Creator,
ever since they were first created.
Every plant cell and even every atom is told what to do moment by moment.
This fact is made clear in a verse from the Quran.
It is God who created the seven heavens, and of the earth the same number, the command descending
down through all of them, so that you might know that God has power over all things, and
that God encompasses all things in His knowledge.
