In the creation of the heavens and the earth, the alternation of night and day, the ships that roam the ocean for the benefit of the people, the water that God sends down from the sky to revive dead land and to spread in it all kinds of creatures, the manipulation of the winds, and the clouds that are placed between the sky and the earth, there are sufficient proofs for people who understand.
He created you from one person, then created from him a mate. He sent down to you eight kinds of livestock. He creates you in your mothers’ bellies, creation after creation, in trimesters of darkness. Such is God your Lord. To him belongs all sovereignty. There is no other god beside Him. How could you deviate?
He created the human form from a tiny drop, then he turns into an ardent opponent. And he created the livestock for you, to provide you with warmth and many other benefits as well as food.
Among His proofs is that you see the land still, then as soon as we shower it with water, it vibrates with life. Surely the One who revived it can revive the dead. He is Omnipotent.
He sends down from the sky water for your drink and to grow trees for your benefit. With it, He grows for you crops, olives, date palms, grapes, and all kinds of fruits. This is sufficient proof for people who think.

We are each other’s business; we are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s magnitude and bond.

I see and believe in the creation. I just want the creator to identify him/herself. It would save us all a lot of pain.
