00:00.000 --> 00:02.160
The Harmony in the Universe

00:02.160 --> 00:07.800
God, the only Lord of the Earth and the heavens,

00:08.200 --> 00:11.160
has created the universe with infinite knowledge and artistry.

00:11.900 --> 00:14.980
All the systems that combine to give rise to life on Earth

00:14.980 --> 00:19.360
work together in glorious harmony as a result of this matchless creation.

00:21.120 --> 00:26.620
Every system and structure, from the stars in space to electrons revolving in a single atom,

00:26.620 --> 00:30.440
is either dependent on or complementary to one another.

00:31.200 --> 00:35.260
Photosynthesis occupies a very important place in this sublime order.

00:36.220 --> 00:39.080
Using soil, water, air, and the sun,

00:39.700 --> 00:44.300
unconscious plant cells take specific quantities of minerals and water from the soil

00:44.300 --> 00:46.760
and manufacture food for human beings.

00:47.300 --> 00:49.260
With the energy they obtain from sunlight,

00:49.620 --> 00:54.520
they break these components down and recombine them in such a way as to produce nutrients.

00:56.620 --> 01:06.160
There is intelligence, consciousness, and order

01:06.160 --> 01:08.400
in every single phase of this process,

01:08.760 --> 01:11.280
summarized here in the very briefest of terms.

01:12.780 --> 01:16.300
This amazing system in plants is clearly a source of life,

01:16.800 --> 01:19.460
specially created for the benefit of living things.

01:19.460 --> 01:24.540
There is perfect harmony, too definite to leave any room for chance,

01:25.020 --> 01:27.560
between green plants on Earth and solar energy.

01:28.740 --> 01:31.240
This harmony gives rise to a food source,

01:31.580 --> 01:33.860
essential to the survival of all living things,

01:34.180 --> 01:37.320
and therefore, also to the survival of human beings.

01:38.140 --> 01:41.540
Our attention is drawn to this subject in another verse from the Quran.

01:41.540 --> 01:51.820
Say,

01:51.820 --> 01:55.220
Who provides for you from the heavens and earth?

01:56.260 --> 01:56.580
Say,

01:57.360 --> 01:57.820
God,

01:58.120 --> 02:00.660
it is certain that one or the other of us,

02:01.020 --> 02:02.160
either we or you,

02:02.720 --> 02:03.800
is following guidance,

02:04.360 --> 02:06.180
or else clearly astray.
