Allah
says:
"He is who sent down water from the sky where
from you have your drink and where from are those trees wherein you drive your
cattles to pasture. Thereby He grows for you the crops the olive, the palm
trees, the grapes and all sorts of fruits.
Of course, it bears portents for these people who muse."
The
sky becomes clear after down pour and the clouds are driven by the winds,
neither the rain continues to come down nor the sky remains cloudless. These
two conditions occur alternately. If the rain continues to come down, all the
food-stuffs like vegetables and grains, which are considered the essential
commodities, shall be reduced to ashes, and the traffic shall be blocked and
the life activities shall be hampered. On the contrary, if the rain permanently
discontinues, and the sky remains cloudless, the water of streams and lakes
shell be polluted and be evaporated, and the air shall be laden with toxic
elements, and the epidemic shall be rampant in every nook and corner of this
globe. All the pastures shall burn and all the greenaries shall dry up. So the
bees will not be in a position to suck the honey from the flowers and their
production of honey, which is a panacea to mankind, shall come to an end.
Therefore Allah says:
"But He supplies in certain quantity
according to His discretion. Indeed He is Well-conversant with and cognizant of
His bondsmen".
The
life of every animal being is pendent on the air. If it comes to an standstill,
even for some fraction of second, all the animals shall face death. This very
air plays a very vital role in driving the water-borne clouds from the Sky to
the earth. The air, in the initial phase, evaporates the water, in
co-ordination with the solar heat. Then the air drives the evaporated water to
the sky and breaks it to form the clouds. Then the air roams with those clouds
hither and thither in the sky. Then these clouds come down heavily on the earth
in the shape of down pour.
Imam
Ghazali says :
"The
Easterlies move the clouds upward, and the Northers assemble the wandering
pieces of the clouds, and the southerns make them leaky while the westerlies
rain the earth in the shape of drops".
Allah
says :
"We dispatched the winds as stimulators, so
we sent down water from the sky and fetched you to drink and you are not
supposed to store it".
It
is the air which drives the clouds to different places, so the farmers
capitalize on them by growing the crops on the earth. If there would not be the
air, the clouds could have stayed laden with water, in one place, and the earth
could have been deprived of their water. The credit goes to the air for the
movement of the ships. The air flows them from one country to another and
provides the mankind with their life-needs.
Thus
the people of one place are benefitted with the products of the another place.
If there would be no air, the benefit of the national products could have been
restricted to the Local populace only.
The
air causes purity and cleanliness, and drives the filth and squalidity. The air
also takes the dust and sand to the gardens to be a source of energy and power
for the trees.
When
the air flows over the oceanic surface. the water, with the collaboration of
the air, sidelines on the shore so many
things. All these are due to sagacious administration of Allah which
controls the system of the universe.
Allah
is greatest!
It
is quite strange that every bit of this universe taken up charismatic jobs while the man, the noblest
creature, goes driftless for his life
and livelihood.
O
man:
Think:
in how many ways you are going to gainsay the Divine bounties and benediction.

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe". And this is probably during 15th century of Lunar calendar.
