....THE
STABILITY OF AIR (ATMOSPHERE)
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And We have made the Heavens
as a canopy well guarded: yet do they turn away from the Signs
which these things (point to)!" (Anbiya, 32)
....With the guidance of Allah Almighty,
Who set the rule of attraction and stability, the light gases
that separated from the Earth, according to the law of gravity,
made up the atmosphere, the layer of gases that surrounds the
Earth.
....Allah Almighty created the air
before He created the living creatures; air is crucial for every
being, even plants. In addition to this, the atmosphere has many benefits. For instance, it protects us from meteors that burn
up over the Earth, it protects us from the Sun's ultraviolet rays,
and cosmic rays. Thus, Allah Almighty says:
"And the Heaven, We raised it high with power. Yet, the unjust
(people) turn away from Allah's signs (how Allah Almighty has
created the atmosphere)." (Dhariyat, 47)
....Indeed, the lessons we draw from
the atmosphere are many.
....If the world were to have no
atmospheric layer, there would be no life; meteors would speed
through the atmosphere of the Earth and deathly rays from the
Sun would reach us.
....On the one hand, if there were
no gravity, the light gases that separated from the Earth would
not be sufficiently attracted to form the atmosphere.
