MANIFESTATION OF THE LIFE
LIFE OF THE PLANTS, ANIMALS AND OF THE HUMAN BEINGS IS THE OUTCOME OF THE ORDER IN THE ATOMS COMPRISING THEIR MOLECULES, CELL STRUCTURES, AND COMBINATION OF THESE CELLS INTO THEIR BODY FORMS. WHAT WE CALL DEATH, IS THE DISINTEGRATION OF THIS ORDER. AN ANOLOGY OF THIS IS A NUCLEAR REACTOR. IN IT ALTHOUGH, EACH PARTICLE OF URANIUM ALL THE TIMES RADIATES, BUT REACTOR AS A WHOLE BEGINS TO GENERATE LARGE AMOUNT OF ENERGY ONLY WHEN A CRITICAL MASS OF URANIUM IS ARRANGED IN A CERTAIN ORDER. NAME OF THIS ORDER IS THE NUCLEAR REACTOR.
QURAN QUOTES HIM SAYING :
I HAVE COME TO YOU (O' PEOPLE)
WITH A SIGN FROM YOUR LORD.
IN THAT, I MAKE FOR YOU OUT OF CLAY,
AS IT WERE A FIGURE OF A BIRD,
AND BREATH INTO IT,
AND THEN IT BECOMES A (LIVING) BIRD,
BY ALLAH'S LEAVE
DEGREES OF LIFE
THE HYPOTHESIS THT ATOM IS THE FUNDAMENTAL UNIT OF LIFE, CAN EXPLAIN THE BASIS OF THE LIFE, FOR IT IS CLEAR THAT NO COMBINATION OF DEAD ATOMS COULD HAVE CREATED LIFE BY THEMSELVES. IN THIS CONCEPT DIFFERENT MANIFESTATION OF LIE AT VARIOUS LEVELS OF DEVELOPMENT ARE ACTUALLY THE OUTCOME OF DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS OF ATOMS. ACCORDINGLY, COMPLEX MOLECULES ARE AT HIGHER STATES IN THE MANIFESTATION OF LIFE THAN THE SIMPLER ONES. THUS WE CAN SAY THAT ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ARE MORE ALIVE THAN THE INORGANIC ONES, AND WITHIN RANGE OF THE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ALSO, MOLECULES OF THE MORE COMPLEX COMPOUNDS REPRESENT A STILL HIGHER DEGREE OF EXISTENCE. A MINO ACIDS WHICH ARE MADE OF COMPLEX COMBINATION OF ATOMS, REPRESENT FURTHER HIGHER STATES OF EXISTENCE.
A LIVING CELL IS A MARVEL OF DESIGN, COMPLEXITY AND SOPHISTICATION AND THEREFORE, IT IS MORE DYNAMIC THAN THE AMINO ACIDS. SIMILARLY THE CELLS OF ANIMALS ARE MORE COMPLEX THAN THE CELLS OF PLANTS. AND THE CELLS OF A MAN ARE MUCH MORE DEVELOPTED THAN THE CELLS OF PLANTS, AND THE CELLS OF A MAN ARE MUCH MORE DEVELOPED THAN THE CELLS OF ANIMALS. THUS, EACH ONE IS RELATIVELY AT A HIGHER DEGREE OF LIFE, BUT IN EVERY CASE, THE RESULTANT LIFE IS THE OUTCOME OF THE UNIT LIVES OF THEIR ATOMS.
MINDS OF THE MATTER
NOW WE COME TO ANOTHER BASIS QUESTION : WHAT FORCES MATTER TO OBEY THE RULES OF NATURE? FOR EXAMPLE, WHY HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN UNDER THE GIVEN CONDITIONS, ALWAYS REACT TOGETHER TO PRODUCE WATER? SAME CAN BE ASKED FOR EVERY OTHER CHEMICAL REACTION. CAN IT BE THAT MATTER AT ITS VERY ELEMENTARY LEVELS KNOWS WHAT TO DO UNDER THE GIVEN CONDITONS? AS WE HAVE DISCUSSED EARLIER, ALL THINGS, SMALL OR BIG, DO RECOGNIZE THEIR CREATOR, AND ARE CONSCIOUS OF HIS WILL I.E, THE LAWS IMPOSED BY HIM ON HIS CREATIONS.
THIS MEANS THAT MATTER AT ALL LEVELS HAS A "MIND" OF ITS OWN. RECONITION AND AWARENESS OF THE LAWS OF NATURE IS THE CRUX OF LIFE. THUS EACH ATOM IS A LIVING BODY WITH MIND OF ITS OWN. IF LIFE GIVES THEM DYNAMISM, MIND GIVES THEM SENSE OF DIRECTION I.E INTELLIGENCE. CHARACTERISTICS OF A THING IS THE MANIFESTATION OF ITS, "MIND". UNIVERSE IS THUS AN ORGANISM WHOSE EACH COMPONENT, THE SMALLEST AND THE BIGGEST, HAS A BUILT-IN MIND OR A GUIDANCE SYSTEM, WHICH GOVERNS ITS BEHAVIOUR, AND GIVES IT NATURE AND FORM. THE HOLY QURAN HINTS UPON THIS BY SAYING:
"OUR LORD IS HE,
WHO GAVE EACH THING,
ITS FORM AND NATURE,
AND GAVE IT GUIDANCE"
