It is because of their small size that one may not know which is male and which is female, which is newborn and which is old. We find tremendously delicate things as signs of His Subtlety, in their desire for reproduction, running away from death, collecting what is good for them and what is in the depth of the oceans and on the barks of trees, in the wilderness and desolate places. We find more fastidiousness in such animals.
it is found in their ability to communicate with each other and in the things that their offspring understand from them. It is in their transporting food to their young and their colours, red along with yellow, white along with red so fine that our eyes are not able to catch because of their very exquisite shape. Our eyes are not able to see them and our hands arc not able to feel them.
All these show that the Creator of all such marvellous creatures is “Subtle” and is kind to all the creatures we mentioned. He has done the creating without instruments and means.
