All creations in the universe are in
composed of a definite proportion. Whether revealed or concealed, they are
implicitly linked together. All individuals are distinguished due to their
proportionate architecture. The inhabitants of Earth, either hidden or visible
are composed in proportion, such as layered ores of mines, rainy water or
sweet, sour, salty underground water tables, volcanic lava, to name a few.
The Strait of Gibraltar connects Atlantic
Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea, without being merged into each other. Spain and
Jebel Tariq are in the north of strait, while Morocco is situated in the South.
It is stretched over 14 kilometres at a minimum depth of 300 meters. Tariq bin
Ziyad, an Umayyad General landed here in 711 A.D. to conquer Spain.
Two shades of ocean water are distinct in
this region-black and white. Even when ships sail between the two regions of
two different shades, rip off sea waves into the air. Despite pulling waves
apart into droplets, neither black-shaded wave, nor white-shaded wave merge
into each other. Black water droplets infuse back to black-shaded region and
white water droplets into the white-shaded region of oceans.
The Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea are
entirely different in their chemistry and biological compositions. Marine
scientist stated that there are large number of sweet water fountains on the
northern coastal areas of Spain and Southern beaches of Jebel Tariq in Morocco.
About a 45 degree orientation, these fountains flow towards each other in a
comb shape to form a water dam spillway into the Atlantic Ocean and
Mediterranean Sea, therefore they do not merge into each other.
Allah said:
" He let forth the two seas to meet
together, while there is a barrier between them; they do not encroach"
(Quran, 55:19-20)
'Maraj' means to let flow, 'Bahrain'-two
seas, 'Yaltaqiyaan'-is a derivative of 'Iltaqa', it means to confront or merge;
'Barzakh' is a membrane, barrier, divide line, obstacle or barrier; 'La' means
not, and 'Yabghiyan'-is rooted from 'Bagha', means trespassing.
Together, it means, He let two seas to flow side by side,
neither of them are merged to each other. Both remain in touch with each other,
but despite their closest proximity, they remain in their region and maintain
individual characteristics. Their distinct properties are due to their
proportionate composition.
Allah said:
"Pronounce the purity of the name of your most exalted
Lord, who created (everything), then made (it) well, and who determined a
measure (for everything), then guided (it), and who brought forth
pasturage." (Quran, 87:1-4)
The salinity, temperature and density of
both seas are different from each other.
In general, when two sources of water are
poured into each other, they dissolve into each other. On the contrary, an
introspection reveals that despite their dissolution, they maintain their
individual characteristics. Neither black, nor white droplet solved into each
other.
When salt is mixed into water, it gets
completely dissolved. But same saline water is warmed up, water evaporates
leaving salt behind.
The chemical characteristics of any sea or
ocean are distinct. At any point where two oceans or seas or a river and oceans
merge into each other, despite the apparent proximity, they remain separated
due to a membrane-a barrier. There are various locations on our Earth, where
such phenomenon can be witnessed. A white stripe is very prominent in the
region where Atlantic and Indian Oceans merge with each other close to Cap
Point in South Africa.
Allah said:
"Or the One who made the earth a place
to settle and made rivers amidst it and made mountains for (making) it (firm),
and made a barrier between two seas? Is there any god along with Allah? No, but
most of them do not have knowledge. (Quran, 27:61)
One can well imagine, how sweet and sour
water reservoirs in sea are maintaining their characteristics. Apparently,
there is no tangible membrane between the two, but doesn't it indicate presence
of a curtainprohibiting them to mix with each other.
What prohibits the dynamics of two seas to
merge? They are flowing side-by-side over distant miles, not only at their
surface, but deep down to sea bed, marine biologists cannot single out an
incidence where any one of them is dissolved into the other.
Allah said:
"He is the One who joined the two seas,
so as this is sweet, very sweet, and this is bitter, very bitter, and made
between them a buffer and an insurmountable barrier." (Quran, 25:53)
Unlike Atlantic Ocean, the water of
Mediterranean Sea is warm, sour and lighter in density. Mediterranean Sea is
connected with Atlantic Ocean at Strait of Gibraltar and flows side-by-side at
a depth of about 1000 meters over a
distance of hundreds of kilometres maintaining its characteristics that is,
temperature, sourness and density. Even huge sea waves, water tide cycles, and
furious sea storms cannot trigger any breach to the invisible separation
curtain.
Readers may experience a similar phenomenon, if they mix
kerosene oil and water. Even they are mixed together very well, but they don't
dissolve in each other. Oil is lighter in density hence this difference brings
oil on the surface of water which can be observed in form of a net. Even if one
tries hard to mix both, but particles of oil never break down to dissolve into
water.
Women may notice during cooking even though
it appears oil is mixed completely with other food ingredients, but if flame is
kept low they will see oil floating on the surface.
What are the proportionate compositions?
Every individual creation in universe is two-fold-inevitable for any core
structure. Light is laid in the foundation of two-fold architecture, which is
only visible in Noor (a finest form of
light). What is Noor? اللہ نورالسموات
والارض that is Allah is Noor of Earth and Heavens. Noor
is omnidirectional-neither East, nor West. It has
overwhelmed whole universe. Noor forms
the light. Light is transformed into a shape and eventually into a material
body. The features of material body mimic the features of light body.
You can experience the beam of light
emerging from projector. Until light beams falls on cinema screen, they are
independent of reflecting any shape. It is the proportion of
composition of various objects hidden in the light beam which transform into
the visible object onto the cinema screen. The composition of light for
mountain reflects mountain, vehicle reflects vehicle, mobile phone reflects
mobile phone, fruits reflect fruit, crops reflect crops and distinct yellowish
hues of mustard reflect mustard.
Huzoor Qalandar Baba Auliya (RA) exemplify
the proportionate composition in drawing a sketch on a graph paper. A graph
consists of many small square boxes. A teacher tells his students in order to
sketch a human or animal, they need a specific number of boxes to draw head,
nose, mouth, or neck etc. They create a proportion or aspect of these
components of group of boxes to sketch a picture. Hence graph, number of boxes
and their proportionate combinations facilitate students in sketching.
Apparently, graph (or boxes) plays the role of foundation for any kind of
sketch. In a similar way, aforementioned light is the foundation in the process
of creation of any object in the universe.
Creatures have five senses-a proportionate composition as depicted in figure below. These senses are integrated to form a vision.
Similarly the composition of making Gold or Water is as follows: Gold = Sense of yellow color
+ Hardness + Viscous + Glittery + Solidity
Water= Sense of white color+ Humid+ Viscous
(mild)+ Dispersive+ Reflective+ Tasteless+ Sense of Smell+ Sound (all kinds)+ Transparent+
Light + Cold + Warm + Motion (all kind) + Flow + Evaporate + Adhesion
All beings are created in a proportionate
composition. It is regulated by a system founded on Noorani waves (finer in density than light) for example, Heavens,
Earth, animals, mountains, plants, or human being.
Allah said:
"Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is that of a niche, in which there is a lamp; the lamp is in a glass - the glass looks like a brilliant star - it is lit by (the oil of) a blessed tree, the olive, which is neither eastern, nor western. Its oil is about to emit light even though the fire has not touched it - (it is) light upon light. Allah guides to His light whomsoever He wills; Allah describes examples for the people, and Allah knows everything well." (Quran, 24: 35)
