I 'll be happy to see you whenever you come." When Warqa visited her friend the next day, she asked about her health and when she would begin work again. "I feel fine, except for some pain near my spleen. I'm waiting for my laboratory results." Warqa said, "I hope nothing is wrong with your spleen, although I think this organ is not very important." Dr. Miyad smiled and said, "On the contrary, it is very important. Every organ God has created has its own importance.

"The spleen is similar to a movable graveyard, rea1ly. It receives the dead red blood cells, which usually die after two months. It is interesting to see the iron particles carry the dead cells for burial and return to produce new ones." "Do the iron particles produce red cells?" "No," said Dr. Miyad, "but it is helpful in their manufacture. The main process involved in making the red and even the white blood cells takes place in the bone marrow.

So you can see what a wonderful factory there is inside the human body. Each organ has its own special function." "Please continue," urged Warqa. "The cardiac system exchanges the gases through the circulation of blood. Oxygen is carried to the tissues by the blood and, on the way back to the heart, remnants of burnt out tissues are transported in place of the oxygen." "You mean that the blood's circulation helps the digestive system?" "Yes, that's what I mean," replied Dr. Miyad.

The necessary gas, oxygen, is provided and carbon dioxide is removed. Hence, our blood is purified and whatever substance is useless is discarded. It is the delicate design of Allah. Consider the digestive system.

We eat and drink whatever we like, but we forget that Merciful Allah has given us the organs, which make use of starches, proteins, fats, minerals, water and vitamins. These organs remove the unwanted waste products from the body." Warqa then asked, "What about the liver?" "The liver is a large reddish-brown organ which secretes bile and purifies the blood. It is similar to a defence front." Dr. Miyad hesitated, giving Warqa time to think. Then she asked how her grandmother was.

Warqa replied that she was much better and that that was why she was able to leave her for a while. Her grandmother wanted Warqa to go back and attend her college lectures from the coming week, but Warqa had not yet made up her mind about it. Dr.
