water cycle
The Qur'an told us in a scientific way about all related facts to the water cycle and descending of rains. Let us look attentively at these holy verses which speak about every part of the water cycle.
The sun is the driver of the aquatic cycle, God says :(
And we have made (therein) a shining lamp (sun).)(Sûrat An-Naba’-verse13). Sun spreads the necessary heat and light to evaporate water and to form winds.
Winds are the second driver of the aquatic cycle, God says :(
And We send the winds fertilizing (to fill heavily the clouds with water), then cause the water (rain) to descend from the sky, and We give it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its stores [i.e. to give water to whom you like or to withhold it from whom you like].)(Sûrat A-Hijr- verse 22).
Water which descends from the clouds is stored in the ground for hundreds of years without being spoiled ,taking into consideration that anyone may store the water for only couple of days it will spoil; God says:(
it is not you who are the owners of its stores) ( Sûrat A-Hijr- verse 22).
After evaporation of water it condenses in the sky in form of clouds, then winds fertilize the clouds, God says :(
And we send the winds fertilizing) (Sûrat A-Hijr- verse 22).
The Qur'an told us about the high heavy clouds which are responsible for rains and ice, God says: (
See you not that Allah drives the clouds gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap of layers, and you see the rain comes forth from between them; and He sends down from the sky hail (like) mountains, (or there are in the heaven mountains of hail from where He sends down hail), and strikes therewith whom He wills, and averts it from whom He wills. The vivid f lash of its (clouds) lightning nearly blinds the sight)(Sûrat An-Nûr-verse43)
The water" which descends" is stored inside the ground in form of sweet springs to enable life to continue, God says: (
See you not that Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, and causes it to penetrate the earth, (and then makes it to spring up) as water-springs, and afterward thereby produces crops of different colors, and afterward they wither and you see them turn yellow; then He makes them dry and broken pieces. Verily, in this is a Reminder for men of understanding.)(Sûrat Az-Zumar-verse21). If these crops are not transferred to the yellow to be dry and broken pieces and if it remained Green, the cycle of plant wouldn't be renewed and we wouldn't get benefit from those broken pieces which transfer to be oil over hundreds of yeas.
Scientists say that all of these operations are according to very organized and constant physical laws, God says: (
And we sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure and we gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, we are Able to take it away.)(Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn-verse18). Look at the word "in due" which refers to discipline and arrangement.
The most important part in this cycle, what is happening at the area which is called the mouth (where rivers flow in seas), Qur'an says: (
And it is He who has let free the two seas (kinds of water): this is palatable and sweet, and that is salt and bitter; and He has set a barrier and a complete partition between them.)(Sûrat Al-Furqân-verse 53) .Unless Rivers are flowing in seas, those seas would be drought. That what happened in the Aral Sea which was supplying by two rivers and because of a human interruption by stopping that supplying, the sea became empty.
Scientists say that mountains have a vital role in the descending of rains, forming the clouds and in water purification. God says: (
And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains, and have given you to drink sweet water?)(Sûrat Al-Mursalât- verse 27).In this verse a clear link between the mountains and the sweet water.
These verses were descended 1400 year ago, with a precise de************************************ion for the water cycle which was discovered 100 years ago! Isn't this a proof that the Qur'an is the book of Allah?
