Creation of white Milk and fruit: Allah's blessings to man - Al-Shia The Scientific and Cultural Website of Shia belief Creation of white Milk and fruit: Allah’s blessings to man 2022-12-21 543 Views Blessings of Allah , Bounties of Allah , Fruits Without any doubt, the bounties and blessings of Allah on His creatures are countless. Among these divine blessings to which the glorious Qur’an made reference are milk and fruits.

In this article, we shall highlight the Qur’anic declaration about these two valuable blessings prior to modern science. Contents Milk Fruits Milk Milk is one of the most important drinkings for humankind (from birth to death). Based on Modern sciences, this white and delicious drink passes between waste and blood but it is very nutritious and needed by people.

So it is important to know that Holy Quran has mentioned this fact and its creation many centuries ago while Modern Sciences achieve this fact in recent years. In the Holy Quran, when Allah recounts His blessings to man, he mentions the cow: “Verily in cattle, there is a lesson for you. There is indeed a lesson for you in the cattle: We give you a drink pleasant to those who drink, pure milk, which is in their bellies, between [intestinal] waste and blood” (16:66).

The food that is eaten by the cow is digested in its intestines. From here the blood carries the nourishment to the rest of the body, including the mammary glands where the milk is produced. Modern science tells us that the processes responsible for the production of milk begin when the contents of the intestine are brought together with the blood. And indeed, this is how the Holy Quran has explained it fourteen centuries ago.

Fruits We know that fruit is the end-product of the reproduction process of superior plants. The complex process starts at the flower, where the pollen carried by insects and birds causes fertilization. Then the plant bears fruit, which in turn gives out seeds and the process begins all over again. All fruit, whether produced by cross or self-pollination requires the presence of male and female organs. The Holy Quran refers to this pair in several verses.

One of them is: “And you see the earth torpid, yet when We send down water upon it, it stirs and swells, and grows every delightful kind [of the plant]” (22:5). Allah has used this analogy to counter the arguments of the people who used to ask the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a) how they would ever come back to life once they were dead.
