Broadening Vision
\r\n Al-Nahl (The Bee) - Chapter 16: Verse 8 (partial)

\r\n

"And He creates things of which you have no knowledge."

\r\n

This sentence invites people's imagination to look beyond their immediate environment and the time in which they live. Beyond what exists at a particular location and at a particular time there are other forms and types of life. God wants people to expect this so as to broaden their vision. He also wants them to accept such other forms of life when they are available.

\r\n

Islam is open minded and flexible. It equips its followers with the ability to use all potentials and resources that are available at any time. The Quran thus prepares people's minds and hearts to receive whatever God creates and science discovers or produces in the future. A proper Islamic conscience is always ready to accept any new remarkable addition to God's creation or to scientific discovery.
