Does God exist? Each time someone ask this
question the Quran points to God’s AYAH (no, not father as per the Malay
language) – translated to Signs or Wonders or Evidences or Miracles.
At 30:25 the Quran declared, “And among His wonders is this: the skies
and the earth stand firm at His behest” and at 30:27 declared “ And He it is who creates [all life] in the
first instance, and then brings it forth anew: and most easy is this for Him, since
His is the essence of all that is most sublime in the heavens and on earth, and
He alone is almighty, truly wise.” And at 21:30 the Quran explained, “ARE, THEN, they who are bent on denying the
truth not aware that the heavens and the earth were [once] one single entity,
which We then parted asunder? – and [that] We made out of water every living
thing? Will they not, then, [begin to] believe? “

As such, for life to exist and even more so the
fact that the system, process and cycles of life is thriving is THE miracle and
proof of God’s existence. Life itself is a miracle. I truly love it that the
Quran use science to show towards His Signs.
Here are 10 entries on GOD’S SIGNS or WONDERS.
All emphasis are mine to help readers focus on
a particular message.
1. And
[thus] He displays His WONDERs before
you: which, then, of God’s WONDERs
can you still deny? Quran 40:81
2. And
among His SIGNS is the [very] creation
of the heavens and the earth, and of all the living creatures which He has
caused to multiply throughout them:
and [since He has created them,] He has [also] the power to gather them
[unto Himself] whenever He wills. Quran 42:29
3. And
among His wonders is this: He creates you out of dust – and
then, lo! you become human beings
ranging far and wide! And among His
wonders is this: He creates for you
mates out of your own kind. so that you might incline towards them, and He
engenders love and tenderness between you: in this, behold, there are messages indeed for people who think! And
among His wonders is the creation of the
heavens and the earth, and the diversity of your tongues and colours: for
in this, behold, there are messages
indeed for all who are possessed of [innate] knowledge! And among His wonders is your sleep, at night or
in daytime, as well as your [ability to go about in] quest of some of His
bounties: in this, behold, there are messages
indeed for people who [are willing to] listen! And
among His wonders is this: He
displays before you the lightning, giving rise to [both] fear and hope, and sends down water from the skies, giving
life thereby to the earth after it had been lifeless: in this, behold,
there are messages indeed for people who
use their reason! And
among His wonders is this: the skies and the earth stand firm at His
behest. [Remember all this: for] in the end, when He will call you forth
from the earth with a single call - lo! you will [all] emerge [for judgment]. For,
unto Him belongs every being that is in the heavens and on earth; all things devoutly
obey His will. And He it is who creates
[all life] in the first instance, and then brings it forth anew: and most easy
is this for Him, since His is the essence of all that is most sublime in
the heavens and on earth, and He alone is almighty, truly wise. Quran 30:20-27
4. For
among His SIGNS is this: thou seest the
earth lying desolate - and lo! when We send down water upon it, it stirs and
swells [with life]! Verily, He who brings it to life can surely give life
to the dead [of heart as well]: for, behold, He has the power to will anything.
Quran 41:39
5. And
among His WONDERs is this: the skies and
the earth stand firm at His behest.
[Remember all this: for] in the end, when He will call you forth from
the earth with a single call - lo! you will [all] emerge [for judgment]. Quran
30:25
6. ARE,
THEN, they who are bent on denying the truth not aware that the heavens and the earth were [once] one single entity, which We
then parted asunder? – and [that] We made out of water every living thing?
Will they not, then, [begin to] believe? And [are they not aware that] We have set up firm mountains on earth,
lest it sway with them, and [that] We have appointed thereon broad paths,
so that they might find their way, and [that] We have set up the sky as a canopy well-secured? And
yet, they stubbornly turn away from [all] the signs of this [creation], and [fail to see that] it is
He who has created the night and the day and the sun and the moon - all of them
floating through space! Quran 21:30-33
7. For
among His WONDERS is this: He sends
forth [His messages as He sends forth] the
winds that bear glad tidings, so that He
might give you a taste of His grace [through life-giving rains], and that ships
might sail at His behest, and that you might go about in quest of some of His
bounties, and that you might have cause to be grateful. – Quran 30:46
8. Behold,
then, [O man,] these SIGNS of God’s
grace - how He gives life to the earth after it had been lifeless! Verily,
this Selfsame [God] is indeed the One that can bring the dead back to life: for
He has the power to will anything! Quran 30:50
9. Now
among His SIGNS are the night and the
day, as well as the sun and the moon: [hence,] adore not the sun or the
moon, but prostrate yourselves in adoration before God, who has created them -
if it is Him whom you [really] worship. Quran 41:37
10. AND ON EARTH there are SIGNS
[of God’s existence, visible] to all who are endowed with inner certainty, just
as [there are SIGNS thereof] within your own selves: can you not, then, see? Quran
51:20-21
Can you see and read the
Signs?
Peace, anas
