teaches how to realize the truth behind these visible created things which are perceived by the mind and known to every human. So, He made the earth spread out to sleep on, walk on, and use it to graze our cattle, carry things on, plant trees on and extract minerals out of. He also sends down rain from the sky and thereby brings forth fruits for us.

Allah (Glorified be He) gives us evidence through these signs which we witness, see and feel: Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day These Heavens with their vastness,
