			Bismillah Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Asha Colombia with mousseline
Muhammad Rasul Allah is Allah Allah Allah He while he was over Salam Steven cathedral cathedra.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:17
			Well, my sister's Ramadan is the ninth month in the lunar Hijri calendar.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:26
			In this month fasting Muslims don't eat or drink or do what the birds and bees do during daylight
hours, in obedience to the Command of Allah
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			subhanho wa Taala the glorious and the magnificent.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:40
			They also don't lie, cheat, slander, backbite course use profanity and so on. I mean, they try never
to do these things, but in all of them they are particularly careful.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:55
			obeying Allah subhanaw taala and denying ourselves things which are permissible or Halal reinforces
the spirit of Islam or submission to Allah subhanaw taala and reminds us to always obey him and
leave everything that he probably did.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:14
			We do this because we know Allah, and we love him and know that he loves us. At the end of Allah is
Angel feather, which begins with charity and a congregational prayer, and ends with eating great
food, and meeting family and friends.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:31
			You should always be kind to a Muslim, but particularly Northern, because no food no drink and no
birds and bees deserves kindness. The best way to find out what all that is to have a Muslim friend
and get them to invite you to their mosque and home.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:47
			number that is a behavior change bootcamp to help us to revamp our lives to make them a source of
blessing to all those we touch. This can happen if we become Moutoku God conscious conscious of
Allah subhanaw taala in our lives.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:54
			That's why I say to people factor aligned to the equation, because he is in it anyway.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:23
			Ramada is their opportunity. A lot of antenna said yeah, you will Lavina Avenue cootie rally who
will see I will come up with the right company boom La La Quinta taco. He said oh, you will believe
fasting is prescribed for you as it was fat prescribed for those before you so that you will become
an otaku. People who are conscious of Allah in their lives God conscious Dakwah is a state where the
person loves Allah subhanaw taala more than anyone and anything else
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:32
			and makes every decision based on whether it pleases Allah subhanaw taala or not? What pleases Allah
subhanaw taala
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:40
			is what is most beneficial for his creatures. And that is the secret of becoming
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:44
			a source of blessing to all those we touch.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:54
			But how do you love someone you don't know? That is why it is essential to know Allah we recognize
the loss of an Altera through his science to his creation
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			He encouraged us to study
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:03
			the creation and recognize his had in it
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			he said
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			interview healthy somehow even on the walk the lovely lady one I heard Allah
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:25
			Allah the Quran Allah pm over oh the wider you know we might have a good room with Africa for us and
to some our
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:29
			Obadiah Hala quota haha.
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			So had a GFI. Now there are
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:40
			a lot of anatella told us to look for his side,
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			to look for signs in his creation.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:47
			He said which means
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:57
			very early in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation are night and day,
there are indeed signs for people who are understanding.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:14
			Those who remember Allah subhanaw taala, standing, sitting and lying down on their sides, and think
deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, saying, our, our Lord, our Master, creator,
protector, maintainer, sustain
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:27
			our you have not created all of this without purpose not created all this in vain. Glory beat you
unique and without partners are you. Your salvation from the punishment of the higher
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:41
			education in Islam is to first know Allah and then researching his creation so that we recognize him
through his science until we love Him and submit to him with joy.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:59
			That is why there is no conflict between theology and science in Islam. Let me show you some
glimpses of what Allah subhanaw taala created. I will strongly suggest that to understand this ayat
of the Quran, you should watch two films. One is called one strange rock and this
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Second one is called, is an excellent BBC series called Blue planets.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:23
			It is hypothesized that about four and a half billion years ago, a planet called Thea, about the
same size of Mars was on an intersecting orbit with the earth, and they met. That is called the
giant impact hypothesis. That must have been some bang.
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:33
			This did three things, it knock the Earth's axis to a tilt of exactly 23.5 degrees.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			This is what gives us our seasons.
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:47
			The impact drove tear into the earth, such that its core and mantle drove deep into the earth and
accreted with our core.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:06:13
			Geologists believe that is the reason the earth's core is larger than what could be expected in a
body of our size. That gave us among other things, iron. Finally, some of the resulting debris got
rejected and formed the moon, which gives us tides, and for the Muslims an opportunity to dispute
about when Ramadan starts and ends. How dull life would be without that.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:32
			But before we can talk about tides, let's ask what is water? Water is one of the most ancient things
on this planet, about four and a half billion years old, which makes it far older than any mountain
range. Yes, that thing in that bottle, which in a few minutes from now, we will think
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:50
			when you do, please reflect that you are drinking water. You're drinking what a Tyrannosaurus Rex
drank, and was there billions of years before the T Rex. The very same water, though I don't think
he drank it out of a plastic bottle
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:55
			is what you and I are drinking today.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:04
			Plastic, which is such an incredible reflection of our lifetimes as humans, convenience for us, and
death for everything else.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:18
			Water is literally an out of this world substance that came to the earth in meteorites and perhaps
huge storms. Thanks to the distance of the Earth from the Sun, our gravity and our atmospheric
state.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:35
			It is constantly recycled and purified in the evaporation precipitation cycle, so that we have a
constant supply of fresh drinkable water. Around 60% of our body is made up of water. And we can
only live from three to five days without fluids.
		
00:07:36 --> 00:08:05
			We need water for critical critical body functions including flushing wastes from the body
regulating temperature, transportation, nutrients, and digestion. Water has a very interesting
properties that are unlike any other substance. For example, water is a universal solvent and exists
simultaneously in three states liquid solid and gas. Unlike any other substance, it expands when it
solidifies and becomes less dense.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			This is called the anomalous expansion of water
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:21
			where it expands instead of contracting, when the temperature goes from four degrees to zero
degrees, but it falls from 40 to zero degrees.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:24
			It becomes less dense.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:09:05
			And that is why ice floats on the surface of rivers and lakes. Ice is an insulator which ensures
that the water beneath the ice remains liquid. And so fish and other creatures who live in it can
survive the coldest winters. If this were not the case, and lakes and rivers flow solid all the way
to the bottom, everything would die. That is why if you are doing a pond in your garden make sure
that it is more than three feet deep. So that the eyes the eyes can follow the top and keep the
bottom liquid. The main properties of water are its polarity, the the molecules are
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			slightly positive or negative.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			Negatively charged
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:29
			polarity cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, high specific heat and evaporative cooling these coils
even adhesive the cohesive and adhesive properties are essential for fluid transport. In
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:42
			in many forms of life, for example, they allow nutrients to be transported to the top of a tree
against the force of gravity, the xylem and phloem vessels they work the way
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:48
			starch is transported and she was a transport is to water.
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:56
			high specific heat we all know about evaporative cooling from personal experience of getting out of
a pool
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			will hold because you
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:29
			body's wet, and the breeze cools the body. And this is the principle behind evaporative coolers. Air
Coolers in hot dry countries are far more efficient than air conditioning and costs a fraction of
the of the electricity that they consume. Surface Tension enables the flooding of ships. On a global
scale, the amount of water evaporating is about the same as the amount of water delivered to the
earth as precipitation. Without that the oceans will be going to
		
00:10:31 --> 00:11:19
			give you an idea Lamido where we are now has an A has a land area of 9.7 square square miles say 10
square miles. That is 35,200 acres. One inch of rain on one acre weighs 113 tons Longmeadow has had
5.5 inches of rain this year. That is 3,977,600 tons of water. Think about this. All this water came
in the form of individual drops or snowflakes. What if 3,977,600 tons of water had dropped from the
sky from an average height of 10,000 feet in one colossal sheet?
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:26
			Quite simply, there will be no ramen.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:36
			How therefore should we thank Allah subhanaw taala will not only sends us what we need, but sends it
in a way that reflects his love and mercy.
		
00:11:37 --> 00:12:10
			There let's talk about dog about life on Earth. We used to believe that random carbon molecules
joined together to form amino acids, which in turn joined together to form simple proteins. The
sequences in which these amino acids connect to each other with peptide bonds shape the protein,
these eventually form the first life forms. Now, there are two major problems with this hypothesis
one, the period that it would take this to happen to get to the first shapeless microscopic creature
would be a few billion years longer than the Earth has been around.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:39
			Secondly, it doesn't explain the livestock without which it will still be at that chemical. Then
came the discovery. Then life on earth did not emerge on its own by the conditions needed for life
or provided by the planet. The primordial ingredients needed for life came from deep space analysis
of samples of asteroid called called a right view
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:41
			has confirmed
		
00:12:42 --> 00:13:07
			that life came to Earth from space. Now we we make the statements because we see space because we
have nothing else to say. Life to Earth came from somewhere else. scientists detected uracil and
niacin in rocks obtained by the Japanese Space Agency's Hayabusa two spacecraft from two sides on
Raju.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:15
			Indra in 2019.
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:18
			The
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:46
			your acid is one of the chemical building blocks for RNA, a molecule carrying directions for
building and operating living organisms. Niacin, also called vitamin d3 or nicotinic acid is vital
for their metabolism. Scientists have found that the samples are the most primitive material ever
study in the lab and date back to even before the planets formed four and a half billion years ago.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:14:06
			When Allah decided to create the earth and its inhabitants, he planned and created conditions for it
and seeded it with what with what was needed and created the spark to animate it. Islam teaches us
to see that hand and not be confused with the creation. No matter how beautiful and complex it may
be.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:14
			how long these creatures have is there is infinite unending variety. He created the octopus.
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:47
			A soft bodied creature that is on everyone's menu and has no defense except magic. What is the magic
camouflage? One minute it is there and next minute. It's a piece of rock or coral or green waving
kelp. The Predator leaves confused when the danger is past. The coral the rock of the kelp turns
back into the octopus and he leaves using water and the same principle as jet propulsion engine uses
air.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:56
			Next time you're eating calamari, think about that calamari is chopped up octopus tentacles have
said
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			the camouflage is totally perfect in color and texture.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:13
			It says that the animal disappears literally before your eyes. Let me ask you, if you want to match
texture, what is the sense you need texture right to buy cloth? I see it is ripped by touching it.
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:24
			If you want to match color, red to red, pink to pink and all kinds of shades, that is onto what
sense do you need full color vision, right?
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:36
			But octopi are colorblind, they see only black and white, and the match texture without touching by
sight. Now, if you go into the theory of natural selection,
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:51
			meaning qualities that are best suited for survival will multiply and the others will disappear.
Because animals who don't have those qualities, or the or the creatures don't have these qualities
will die.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:16:02
			So this is the theory of natural selection. Now, if you do the activity and look at it here and say,
What chance does a colorblind octopus have? Who strives to match color and texture without touching
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:11
			to survive? And the answer is nothing. Such an octopus would just die, and would not be able to
propagate it Skyn.
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:27
			being colorblind is not an asset for something that needs to match color with another object. Or not
only do they survive, they don't even develop the capacity to see color in successive generations,
yet they can camouflage perfectly. Why?
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:30
			Ask why? There's only one answer,
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:53
			so that we can recognize the hand of the Creator in his creation. Why does Allah create something
which needs camouflage to survive, and then does not give it the basic senses that it needs to
calculate. Yet it is able to come up like perfectly without the senses, who is directing, it was
guiding it.
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:11
			This is the purpose of Allah to recognize Allah, the little animal, the glorious and the
magnificent. To know that he created a system for us to live in this world, so that our lives will
be harmonious, tranquil, fulfilling, and highly successful.
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:46
			Like he created biological life forms. He also created a way of life called Islam, the purpose of
which is to help us to become a blessing for all those we share the earth with. So rather, we learn
to appreciate Allah subhanaw taala His blessings, to love him more than we love anyone else and to
OBEY HIM joyfully, and succeed in this life and the hereafter. I wish all of you our work. Hula
mundum the head eight Baba Mubarak in advance. Salam alikoum to my work
