Zoology in the Quran – Dr Zakir Naik
QMS-15
In the field of Zoology, the Qur’an says in Surah An’am, Chapter.No.6, Verse.No.38,
“We have made every animal that lives on this earth and every creature which has wings and flies in the air, to live in communities like the human beings”
Today we have come to know that the animals and birds like the human beings they too live in communities.
The Qur’an says in Surah Nahl, Chapter.No.16. Verse No.68 and 69,
“It is Allah (swt) who has taught the Bee to build its cells in hills on trees and in human habitations. And to eat of what the earth produces and to find the spacious path of thy Lord with great skill”
It was recently, just a few decades earlier that a scientist by the name of Von-Frisch, he got the Noble Prize for describing the behavior and the movement of the Bee. And what does the Qur’an mean by saying it has taught the Bee to build it cells in Hills, Trees, Human habitations, to eat of what the earth produces and find the spacious path of thy Lord with great skill.
Today after science has advanced, after Von-Frisch described the movement of the Bee, we have come to know that whenever the bee finds a new garden or a flower, it goes and tells its fellow bee, the exact direction of that garden and flower. So that it could collect nectar by a process known as the ‘bee dance’.
So what we have come to know recently, Qur’an says, it has taught the Bee to find the spacious path of thy Lord with great skill. Today in science we call it the Bee dance.
And previously we thought it was the male bee which was the worker bee, today we have come to know that it is not the male bee, it is the female bee which is the worker bee and the gender used in the Qur’an in Surah Nahl, Chapter.No.16, Verse.No.68, and 69 is ‘Fasluki’ and ‘Kuli’, meaning a ‘Female bee’. No wonder, Shakespeare in his play “Henry the Fourth” – he mentions about the people talking among themselves about the bee that the soldier bee, the male soldier bee they go and report to the king. Today we have come to know – it is not the male bee which is the solider bee, they are the female bees which are the worker bees and solider bees and they don’t report to the king but they report to the queen.
Imagine, even the gender of the worker bee, the solider bee is mentioned in the Qur’an, which is the female gender, which we’ve come to know recently.
The Qur’an says in Surah Naml Ch. No. 27 verse no. 17 & 18.
“Before Solomon marched with his host of men, jinns & birds and when they approached a lowly valley of ants one of the ants said; ‘O ye ants, get into the habitations lest Solomon and his hosts will trample you beneath the feet”
People who think, what kind of fairy tale book is the Qur’an? The ants are speaking amongst themselves? You know, we have fairy tale books so what type of fairy tale book is the Qur’an? The ants talking & speaking amongst themselves? After science has advanced we’ve come to know the Animal or insect which has the closest resemblance to the Human being is the Ant. The Ants burry the dead the same way as we human beings do. They have a sophisticated method of labors in which there are supervisors, managers, foreman, workers etc. They have a sophisticated method of communication. They very often even meet to chat. They have market places, where they exchange goods. You know Sooq, we have market places even ants have got market places where they exchange goods…
