SOIL THAT VIBRATES AND SWELLS AS IT COMES TO LIFE
------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
IN QURAN SURA HAJ#22 AYAT#5- ...You see the earth barren
and lifeless, but when We pour down water on it, it
vibrates, it swells and puts forth every kind of beautiful
growth in pairs.
It is general knowledge that there is no life without air
and water. Does it ever occur to anyone that soil also is a
prerequisite to life? The soil is in continuous
development. Throughout thousands of years, especially by
the effect of water, it has undergone transformation by
erosion of the Lithosphere. As the rate of this erosion is
0.01 mm per year in hard rocks, this transformation is
imperceptible (This rate rises up to 20 mm in warmer
regions). In this transition process, the earth rises from
the inorganic world of minerals to an organic sphere. In a
fertile section of earth 1 m3 there are some 30 million
bacteria.
The above verse refers to reactions that occur in series
after rainfall. The vibrating and swelling of soil were at
first believed to be literary expressions. But Robert
Brown’s discovery of the earth’s shaking referred to
as “Brownian movement” was another proof of the Quran’s
miraculous insight. Three stages are mentioned in the
Quran, namely:
1) Earth’s vibrating
2) Earth’s swelling and
3) Earth’s products in pairs.
1) In the first stage, particles in the soil begin moving
upon the fall of rainwater. Raindrops falling on the earth
at random move in every direction. The particles are
ionized. They are positively ionized as there is a fall in
the electrical charge and negatively ionized as there is a
rise in the electrical charge. With the arrival of water
the ionized molecules begin vibrating. Robert Brown, who
discovered this phenomenon in 1828, called this
movement: “Brownian movement.”
2) The second point refers to the growth in size of the
earth’s particles as they absorb water. Soil particles are
composed of joint layers. Between any two layers, there are
spaces that allow water particles and dissolved ions to
enter. When water and the nourishing elements dissolve in
it, they diffuse between layers, resulting in the swelling
of the size of the soil particles. The soil’s property of
holding water prevents its penetration any deeper, and thus
provides for organisms and plants to live.
3) The third stage refers to the germination of seeds. As
the verse points out, the fertilization process has
started. The soil that seemed dead comes to life with
water, giving in turn life to vegetation that begins to
sprout.
There are many references to the creation of plants.
Parallels are drawn between the creation and restoration to
life of plants and the resurrection raising from the dead.
The period when a plant begins to sprout is likened to
youth, and the period when the plant ripens to adolescence,
and then to maturity. Just like a man gets weaker and
frailer as he grows older and wrinkles appear on his skin,
so do plants dry and lose their luster. When they die, they
mix with the soil, just like the corpse of a man. As plants
grow again, so will man rise from the dead. God, who causes
plants to die every year and regenerates them, so will He
raise men from the dead.
in QURAN SURA YASEE CHEPTER#36 AYAT#33- One sign for them
is the dead land. We revive it and produce from it grains
which they eat.
