Introduction
The
aim of this article is to study the Al Qur’an verse and to correlate the modern
science with the verses that we find in the Al Qur’an to think about the great
sign of Allah SWT in this world. The great sign of God in this world is He
creates many things. For example all of creatures are from inorganic compound
and many the weakest creatures have extraordinary ability to survive in their
life, such as viruses. Allah SWT reveals in the Al-Qur’an “There are many signs
in the heavens and the earth which they pass by; yet they pay no attention to
them! [12 Yusuf – Joseph: 105] ”.
One
of the great sign of Allah SWT in this world is He draws the living from the
dead and He draws the dead from the living. Allah SWT reveals in the Al-Qur’an“Say:
"O Allah! Master of all the Kingship, You give the kingdom to whom You
please and take away the kingdom from whomsoever You please; You give honor to
whom You please and disgrace whom You please; all the good is in Your hand;
surely You have power over everything [26]. You cause the night to pass into
the day and You cause the day to pass into the night; You draw the living from the dead and You draw the dead from the
living; and You provide sustenance for anyone You wish without measure."[27]”
[Ali ‘Imran – The House Of Imran:26-27]. In this article we would like to
analyze the virus’s features in the Al Qur’an according to that Al Qur’an verse
because viruses have unique features. Those are they can be called lived
creatures and dead creature at the same time. If one virus is in the cell, that
virus can be called living thing because it can reproduce itself in the cell.
Furthermore, if other virus is out the cell, that virus can be called particle
because it can be crystallized. So that viruses have special classification in
the modern creature classification system.
