....If
there was too much gravity, the gases separated from the Earth
would be dense over the surface of the Earth and there would be
no atmosphere. Allah Almighty, Who created everything in this
material world and Who established a delicate and sensitive balance
and order in it, has maintained the gases in certain amounts and
places. Any atmospheric instability has great consequences for
living creatures, leading to a change in climatic conditions and
natural balances.
....THE STABILITY OF WATER
....Allah Almighty says:
...."We made from water
every living thing." (Anbiya, 30)
....After setting up a balanced air
system, which we called the atmosphere, and transforming the Earth
into a habitable place, the next step was to stabilize the water.
....Along with plants, the body of
living creatures in the Earth consists of nearly 75% water. Thus,
it is a prerequisite for balance and stability that water covers
75% of the surface of the Earth.
.... How did all this water come
to be on the Earth?
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And We send down water from
the sky according to (due) measure, and We cause it to soak in
the soil; and We certainly are able to drain it off (with ease)."
(Mumenoon, 18)
....Thus, water did not gush out
of the ground, it came down from the sky in the form of rain.
Allah says that "We send down water from the sky according to
(due) measure, and We cause it to soak in the soil."
