quranThe Perfection of Human Form
Reference: Surah At-Tin 95:4
Allah declares: "We have certainly created man in the best of stature." The human body is a masterpiece of Al-Bari' - the heart beats 100,000 times daily without rest, the eye can distinguish millions of colors, the brain processes information faster than any computer. Each system works in perfect harmony. When scholars study anatomy, they find layer upon layer of intricate design, all functioning together flawlessly.
We are created in the best form by Al-Bari'. This obliges us to use our perfect design for its intended purpose - worshipping and serving our Creator.
