....Allah
Almighty, Who always preordains each and every event (there are
no coincidences), sent down water from the atmosphere in certain
amounts and stored it in prearranged bodies, seas and lakes, which
were established to maintain the stability of water.
....If there had been no bodies prearranged
for the water to be sent down to and if the Earth had happened
to be flat instead of being full of mountains, hills, and valleys,
then the Earth would be submerged under nearly 4,000 meters of
water, and if we lived, we would live like fish.
....THE BEGINNING OF THE LIFE
ON THE EARTH
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And Allah sends down rain
from the skies, and gives therewith life to the Earth after its
death." (Nahl, 65)
....Allah Almighty, Who transformed
the Earth into a place that was habitable, and Who put the Sun,
the Moon, and the stars into their predetermined orbits, began
to create the first primitive plants that would be sustenance
for all the advanced plants according to the law of physics and
chemistry.
....Thus, the water cycle that Allah
Almighty put into effect started to work. Water stored in the
ground evaporates and rises in the atmosphere. Then it falls down
as rain from the sky to the place predestined by Allah.
....Water has the ability to dissolve
everything it touches. As the water runs across the Earth it picks
up and dissolves a portion of everything it comes into contact
with such as nitrate, sulfate, ammoniac, organic and inorganic
dusts, as well as gases in the air, preparing the sustenance
