THERE WAS AN INITIAL GASEOUS MASS BEFORE THE CREATION OF GALAXIES

Scientists say that before the galaxies in the universe were formed, celestial matter was initially in the form of gaseous matter. In short, huge gaseous matter or clouds were present before the formation of the galaxies. To describe initial celestial matter, the word 'smoke' is more appropriate than gas. The following Qur'anic verse refers to this state of universe by the word dhukhan which means smoke.

" Moreover, He comprehended
In His design the sky,
And it had been (as) smoke :
He said to it
And to the earth :
'Come ye together,
Willingly or unwillingly.'
They said : 'We do come
(Together), in willing obedience.'
                                                      ( Al-Qur'an 41:11 )
Again, this fact is a corollary to the 'Big Bang' and was not known to the Arabs during the time of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). What then, could have been the source of this knowledge ?

CREATION OF THE UNIVERSE : ' THE BIG BANG '

The creation of the universe is explained by astrophysicists in a widely accepted phenomenon, popularly known as the ' Big Bang '. It is supported by observational and experimental data gathered  by astronomers and astrophysicists for decades. According to the ' Big Bang ', the whole universe was initially one big mass (Primary Nebula). Then there was a ' Big Bang ' ( Secondary Separation ) which resulted in the formation of Galaxies. These then divided to form stars, planets, the sun, the moon, etc. The origin of the universe was unique and the probability of it occuring by 'chance' is zero.

The Qur'an contains the following verse, regarding the origin of the universe :

" Do not the Unbelievers see
  That the heavens and the earth
  Were joined together (as one Unit of Creation), before
  We  clove them asunder ? "
                                              ( Al-Qur'an 21:30 )
  The striking congruence between the Qur'anic verse and the 'Big Bang ' is inescapable ! How could a book, which first appeared in the deserts of Arabia 1400 years ago, contain this profound scientific truth ?

A little girl named Al-Bara'ah

This story of a little girl named Bar`ah who is 10 years old, her parents were doctors who moved to Saudi Arabia in search of better life.

In this age Bar`ah memorized the whole quran with the tajweed, she was very intelligent, her teacher use to tell her she should be in middle school not primary one....

Her family is small and committed to Islam and its teaching....suddenly one day the mother started feeling sever abdominal pain, after tests and checkups she found out that she have cancer, but in its late stages.

The mother thought how she can tell her daughter, specially if she wake up one day and didn't find her mother beside her... so she told her (( Bar`ah I will go to pradise ahead of you, but I want you to read the Quran you memorized every day since it will protect you in this life))...

The little girl didn't really understand what her mother is trying to tell her...but she started feeling the change in her mother status specially when she was transferred to stay in hospital on permanent bases. The little girl used to come to the hospital after her school and recited Quran for her mother till evening when her father used to take her home.

One day the hospital called the husband and informed him that his wife condition is very bad and he need to come as fast as he can, so the father picked Bar`ah from her school and headed to the hospital, when they arrived he asked her to stay in the car ... just she wont get shocked if her mother has passed a way.

GOOD EATING HABIT

       After knowing the harmful effect of eating too full, what's your choice ? Do you want to live longer, or  to risk your life earlier ? If you wish to live longer, here are some tips you can follow :

1.     Always eat until 70 % full. Do not exceed 80 % full. You may want to stop eating when you feel slightly full.

2.     Avoid having buffet style meal which makes it harder to control how much you eat.
. Instead prepare the food you want to eat in a plate. After finishing it, don't eat anymore food.

3.     Leaving the dining table earlier may prevent you from picking some extra food to eat.

4.     It is always a good idea to prepare lesser food in the first place. Some people are afraid of having not enough food for everyone. Actually, lesser food is beneficial for everyone

IN A RESTAURANT, ORDER IN SMALL AMOUNT FIRST. YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD IN SOME EXTRA ORDER IF NECESSARY. BUT IF YOU CAN GET BY WITH THE ORIGINAL SMALLER ORDER, THAT'S GREAT..

REMEMBER THIS :  YOU HAVE HIIGHER CHANCE OF OVEREATING IF YOU SERVE MORE FOOD ON THE TABLE.

YOU HAVE BETTER CHANCE OF NOT OVEREATING IF YOU SERVE LESS FOOD.

5.     Avoid stuffing your fridge with ice cream, chocolate or other dessert. You cannot eat what you do not have.

6.     When someone prepares a big plate of food for you, look at it first. Ask yourself, '' Do I want to to stuff it all into my stomach ?''

If your answer is no, just put aside some food to another empty plate first. After fiinishing your food, look back at the extra food on that new plate. Say to yourself, ''Phew ! Luckily I didn't stuff that portion into my stomach. ''

7.     When you get too hungry before your meal time, just take some fruit instead of heavy meal.

THE TENDENCY TO OVEREAT IS VERY HIGH FOR MODERN PEOPLE.

SIDE EFFECT OF EATING

       Your car engine burns fuel to move your car and bring you to anywhere you like to go. As a result, the engine produces exhaust smoke which is toxic. It must be dispersed out from your car.

       Similarly, your body cell burns nutrient for energy to survive. In the process, it produces free radicals. Since free radicals is toxic to your body, it has to be neutralized and expelled.

       '' Just metabolizing food especially fatty and carbohydrate-rich fare causes the body to produce free radicals, which attack cells and can promote the development of chronic conditions including heart disease, diabetes and cancer, says Ronald L. Prior, Ph.D.

       Of course, your body can control free radicals in small quantity. But the more you eat the more free radicals your body produces. Without adequate control. these few radicals easily attack your body cells and eventually cause all sort of diseases.
