bees, cats, dogs, squirrels, and fish could possibly emerge
from this barrel? Could a person who thinks, who becomes
happy or excited, who enjoys listening to music and read-
ing books possibly step out of it? Of course not! Neither
could anyone like the professors keeping watch over the
barrel emerge. Not only could not one single professor not
emerge, but not even one of the trillions of cells in such a
professor's body.
Atoms are lifeless. Can lifeless matter come together to
produce a living, laughing, thinking being?
Of course not; no living thing could ever emerge from
that barrel. Because living things aren't made up of pieces
Lifeless matter can
never come together
by chance to form a
living creature. Allah
has created the uni-
verse and all living
things from nothing.
