Channels That Only Show Animals’ Savage Aspects Are Engaging in Darwinist Propaganda

Recently various TV channels with conservative reputations have, in their documentary broadcasts, been giving an impression of a savage and ruthless nature. Broadcasts just about every evening insist on providing no images apart from those of animals hunting one another. No information is provided about the glorious structures inherent living things and their altruistic and intelligent behavior.

Images of this kind being screened as documentaries are in fact a form of Darwinist propaganda. In this way, without actually referring to Darwinism or the theory of evolution, the message is sent out that savagery, conflict and struggle, the very foundations of Darwinist ideology, are “naturally present in nature.” The aim is to give people who watch these documentaries the impression of a system among living things in which the strong invariably crush the weak. Viewers familiarized with this idea are thus, in a way, conditioned to believe in  the worst deception in all history, the theory of evolution. They become indoctrinated with the idea of the strong crushing the weak and of weak species being eliminated, which represents the essential and perverse foundation of the theory of evolution. In short, THESE IMAGES OF SAVAGERY shown as “documentaries” ARE IN FACT BLATANT DARWINIST PROPAGANDA.

The surprising thing is that the channels in question IN NO WAY REFER TO THE EXTRAORDINARY CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SAME LIVING THINGS OR THEIR ALTRUISTIC BEHAVIOR. It is of course quite true that living things will hunt another for food, and some living things have indeed been created in that way. But hunting is just one out of thousands of a living thing’s characteristics. Animals possess such glorious attributes that it is truly breathtaking the way in which these channels never mention them. They never discuss such miraculous properties as the extraordinary precautions a herd of elephants take to protect a baby, the way a crocodile carries the young Caretta caretta turtles into the sea between its jaws, the way that male and female cichlid fish take  turns to ensure no harm befalls their eggs and that they receive enough oxygen, or that male penguins hold their eggs on their feet and stand without moving for months during the winter without eating anything at all. There is never any mention of the birds’ ability to build their own nests, the bees’ ability to build honey combs with immaculate angles, the dams constructed by beavers, termite nests that rise many meters high or the glory in an insect that beats its wings 1,000 times a second.


Why Is It Important to Describe the Beautiful Features in the Living World?

Darwinism generally employs demagoguery and is disseminated using cunning methods. Since it is a theory that has been utterly demolished by all the scientific evidence, it avoids science and uses demagogic techniques to further its propaganda. (See Darwinist Propaganda Techniques) The way that documentaries about savage behavior are shown on some conservative channels is a part of this stratagem. The channels in question have, consciously or not, fallen into this cunning trap, with which Darwinists seek to influence the conservative community. People who are unaware that the theory of evolution is a fraud that adopts chance as its false god may therefore be negatively affected by this sly propaganda.

Reports about evolution are sometimes carried directly in the conservative written press. Occasionally, part of this press will realize its error and immediately retract such reports, while others persist in this important error. The Darwinist dictatorship that dominates the world reveals its influence here. The evolutionary propaganda on some conservative TV channels as described above is either the product of ignorance or else reveals the true scope of the influence of the Darwinist system of indoctrination. But whatever the reason may be, the channels in question need to realize the scale of their error and to renounce such mistakes as quickly as possible.

The living world is full of breathtaking and stunning characteristics. Each one is powerful and beautiful enough to lead a person to have faith in Allah and to appreciate His greatness. Therefore, the best thing for these channels to do would be to show these details that reveal the artistry of Allah. Otherwise, they will be supporting a superstitious theory that has led to bloodthirsty communist and fascist regimes whose ideologies have inflicted horrific scourges, war,  slaughter and mayhem on the world, a pernicious ideology that is still the cause of savagery, disorder and lovelessness, a nightmarish pseudo-philosophy that represents the intellectual basis of all terrorist activities, including those of the PKK and that foolishly seeks to deny the existence of a Creator by adopting blind chance as its false god (surely Allah is beyond that).

All those channels that only show the savage side of animals in their documentaries need to realize the danger, be aware of the error they have fallen into and take immediate precautionary measures. They possess significant means by which they can be instrumental in people coming to belief by telling them of the signs leading to faith, and they must use these in the most effective way for Allah’s good pleasure.

Designs inspired by spider webs

• How do spider webs prevent computers from overheating?

• How is violin string made from spider web?
• How do spider webs hold water?

Spider webs are truly a wonder of architecture and engineering, as well as their qualities such as strength, flexibility and use advantages.

It is known by virtually everyone that spiders use the silky threads produced in their own bodies to set a web. However, the production phases of this silk and its general characteristics are not so well- known. This silk thread, which spiders produce and the diameter of which is less than  one millimeter, is five times stronger than steel of the same thickness. Also it can flex four times its own length.

Another striking characteristic of the silk is that it is very lightweight. We can explain this with an example. The weight of a silk thread that will circle the earth would weigh only 320 grams. Scientists are resuming their research to technologically benefit from these characteristics of the spider thread.

Spider Silk  Prevents Computers From Overheating

Researchers have concluded that spider silk can conduct heat 800 times better than all other organic materials in the world. However, whereas spider silk can conduct heat with a rate of 416 W/m-K (watt/meter Kelvin), the same rate is 401 W/m-K in copper. Human skin can conduct electricity by only 0.6 W/m-K. While spider silk is ahead of copper, which is one of the materials that conduct heat the best, when it is compared to silicone aluminum and pure iron, it is again superior. This superiority of the spider silk only falls behind when compared to silver and diamond.

The secret behind the conductivity of spider silk is the molecular structure of the silk Allah created specially for these beings. Spider silk is formed by a combination of hard, crystal pieces that self-generate as well as dynamic and elastic pieces.

Scientists think that they can better understand its conductivity by examining the spider silk’s characteristics of creation. They note that these organic materials can be used in computers, which are made of substances that conduct heat by using this feature of the web, and that spider silk can be used in many fields from electronics to summer clothing.

The physical features of spiders and their behaviors clearly prove that these beings were created by Allah. Allah, the Lord of all worlds, reveals this truth to the people with the verse; "He said, ‘The Lord of the East and the West and everything between them if you used your intellect.’…" (Surat ash-Shu‘ara’, 28)

Violin String From Spider Web

When researchers who made a type of thread by spinning approximately five thousand silk strings taken from 300 female “Nephila macukala” spiders, which are known for their complex webs, in the same direction, and then made violin strings by spinning three of these threads in the opposite direction, and measuring th pull force of the string, they found that the string can endure less tension than the string traditionally made by using intestines and more tension than modern nylon string covered with aluminum. In addition, when violin strings made in this way are studied under a scanning electron microscope, it was found that they are perfectly round and since they fit together perfectly, a very nice and soft resonance was obtained.

Spiders could not have learned to knitspin this web, which works with perfect planning, on its own as a result of the so-called evolutionary process. Spiders act with the command of Allah like all other beings on earth. Almighty Allah reveals this with the verse; “... when everything in the heavens and earth, willingly or unwillingly, submits to Him and to Him you will be returned?" (Surah Al ‘Imran, 83)

Spider Web Example in Covering Large Sites

Webs built by dew spiders are both aesthetic and amazing in terms of engineering. These spiders build their webs on a horizontal plane to appear like a sheet lying on grass. They use vertical grasses as girders and ensure that the weight on the grass is evenly distributed on this grass.

This method was reproduced by people in order to cover large sites. The Munich Olympics Stadium and JeddahAirport, which are shown as examples of today’s modern architecture works, were built by imitating the webs of these spider species. As in this example, every being people take as an example, and every system they possess are a verse (evidence) of Allah for people. This truth is revealed in Surat al-Jathiyya as such:

And in your creation and all the creatures He has spread about there are Signs for people with certainty. (Surat al-Jathiyya, 4)

Artificial Spider Webs That Hold Water

The capacity of spider web to hold water is very high. Researchers have copied the characteristics of spider web, which hold water drops effectively, and developed a synthetic thread that can be used in holding the water in the atmosphere. Scientists who examined web fibers of uloborus walckenaerius spiders under the microscope found that the water particles that move along the fiber change the web’s structure when they intensify to form drops. In the study, it was understood that the thread made by the substance secreted by this spider forms four times thicker knots in sections that water droplets gather.

Another less known characteristic of spider web is its capacity to collect water from moist air. Scientists who are inspired by this characteristic developed artificial fibers that copy the silk’s structure, and they pointed out the ability of these artificial fibers to collect water. It is considered that these artificial fibers can be used to collect water in the air or to filter chemical products in industrial production.

Spider Web Will Inspire the Internet

In the research conducted on araneus diadematus , a common garden spider that lives in Europe, using computer modeling, it was found that spider webs react differently to different tension levels. As it is known, spider web has a unique quality that softens when needed and then turns back to its original hardness. In the research, it was understood that spider web softens in mild wind and does not show a disruption in general structure, and when a stronger force is applied to a specific point, the web loses its flexibility in this region of the web and breaks off. However, this situation strengthens the general structure and wholeness of the web even more. Research showed that when fibers in different regions break, the web can carry three to twenty percent more weight than it normally does.

Researchers think that with the deciphering of these secrets of the spider web, complex networks like the Internet can be built in a stronger way against disruptions in the future. New visual networks that can be formed like this will not lose their mechanical quality, despite enduring much damage, and no matter which part of the system is attacked, the network will collapse only at a certain point. Thus in many areas from electrical networks and the internet to the textile industry, great leaps will be achieved based on the spider web in future.

During the research conducted to uncover the chemistry of spider threads, threads are taken from  spiders with special machines. In this way, 320 meters (almost three milligrams) of silk can be gathered per animal. Another field that spider threads are used to serve human beings is medicine. Pharmacologists at the University of Wyoming in the USA are using the threads of a spider species called “Nephile” in lieu of catgut in very sensitive operations like tendon and joint operations.

With the acceptance of the superiority of created features, no doubt, evolutionists have experienced a new disappointment and a new sense of hopelessness.  The invalidity of evolutionists’ unscientific claims that beings are in a state of development from the simple to the more complex over time and that their characteristics have formed by coincidence, were once again proved. Allah, the Lord of all worlds, is the One Who creates flawless and unique systems. Allah is the One Who creates all things flawlessly. Those who do not want to accept this will live an unending regret in the hereafter.

He Who created the seven heavens in layers.You will not find any flaw in the creation of the All-Merciful.ऀLook again – do you see any gaps? Then look again and again. Your sight will return to you dazzled and exhausted! Surat al-Mulk, 3-4)

Allah Created Spider Threads in the Best Shape For Its Purpose

It is generally not known that spiders use more than one thread type while making their webs. However, spiders produce different threads in their bodies for different purposes. When one thinks about the life of spiders, it is immediately understood how important this feature is, because the specialty of the thread the spider walks on and the threads it used to catch its prey or to wrap it tightly have to be different from one another. For example, if the thread a spider walks on were adhesive like the thread it uses to catch the prey, the spider would stick on the web and thus it would cause its own death.

These silk threads have different qualities in terms of both flexibility and strength, and they  also have different qualities for thickness and adhesiveness. For example, the hanging thread, which plays a big role in the spider’s life, has a flexible and strong structure even though it is not adhesive. It can carry two to three times the spider’s weight easily. The spider, which also carries its prey together,  can move up and down safely thanks to these ropes.

As it is seen, the spider needs to make very different threads and moreover it must use these different threads in the right places. Even the lack of one of these threads is potentially deadly for the spider. None of the qualities spiders have could have emerged phase by phase as the theory of evolution suggests.  Sine the first spiders on earth, all spiders have  existed in their complete form. All of these point to the evidences that they emerged all of a sudden and that Allah created them. Allah shows us His infinite power and matchless knowledge with the superior miracle of creation in spiders. Allah reveals this truth in one verse:

Everything in the heavens and the earth glorifies Allah. He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. The kingdom of the heavens and the earth belongs to Him.ऀHe gives life and causes to die.He has power over all things.(Surat al-Hadid, 1-2)

The Big Bang Echoes through the Map of the Galaxy

In the two widest-ranging exercises on mapping the galaxies carried out to date, scientists have made findings that offer serious support for the Big Bang theory. The results of the research were presented at the winter conference of the American Astronomical Society.

The wide extent of the distribution of galaxies is evaluated by astrophysicists as one of the most important legacies from the first phases of the universe to have come down to the present day. It is therefore possible to refer to the information on the distribution and location of the galaxies as "a window opening onto the history of the universe."
In their research that lasted several years, two independent teams, composed of British, Australian and American scientists, produced a three-dimensional map of some 266,000 galaxies. The scientists compared the data they collected on the distribution of the galaxies with the data for the Cosmic Background Radiation emitted everywhere in the universe, and made important discoveries regarding the origin of galaxies. Researchers analysing the data concluded that the galaxies formed where matter that formed 350,000 years after the Big Bang relatively clustered together, and then assumed their shape under the influence of the force of gravity.

According to the Big Bang theory, everything began from the explosion of a point of infinite density and zero volume. As time passed, space expanded and the gaps between heavenly bodies grew.

The findings in question confirmed the Big Bang theory, which states that the universe began from the explosion of a single point of zero volume and infinite density some 14 billion years ago. This theory has constantly been confirmed by tests consisting of decades of astronomical observations, and stands unrivalled on the most solid of foundations. The Big Bang is accepted by the great majority of present-day astrophysicists, and constitutes scientific verification of the fact that God created the universe from nothing.
In its ten-year-long research, the Anglo-Australian Observatory in the Australian state of New South Wales determined the positions in space of 221,000 galaxies by means of a three-dimensional mapping technique. The survey, which was performed with a 3.9 metre diameter telescope at the observation post, was almost ten times larger than any previous such study. (1) Under the leadership of Dr. Matthew Colless, director of the observatory, the team of scientists first determined the position of galaxies relative to one another and the distances between them. Then they modelled the distribution of the galaxies and studied the minute variations in that model in great detail. The scientists offered their research for publication in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
In a similar study carried out by the Apache Point Observatory in New Mexico, USA, the positions of some 46,000 galaxies in another region of space were similarly mapped and their distribution was investigated. The study, involving the use of a 2.5 metre diameter Sloan telescope, was carried out under the leadership of Daniel Eisenstein of the University of Arizona, and is to be published in the Astrophysical Journal. (2)
The results obtained by the two groups were announced during the winter meeting of the American Astronomical Society in San Diego, California, USA on 11 January, 2005.

Data obtained from the COBE satellite in 1992 revealed minute fluctuations in the emission of Cosmic Background Radiation.

An Important Confirmation

The data obtained as the result of long and careful work confirmed estimates made decades ago in the field of astronomy regarding the origin of the galaxies. In the 1960s, theoreticians estimated that galaxies may have seeded in regions where matter massed in a slightly higher concentration shortly after the Big Bang. If that estimate is correct, then the seeds of the galaxies should be capable of being observed in the form of tiny fluctuations in heat levels in the remains of radiation left over from the Big Bang and known as Cosmic Background Radiation.
Cosmic Background Radiation is heat radiation that only began being emitted 350,000 years after the Big Bang. This radiation, emitted everywhere in the universe, represents a snapshot of the 350,000-year-old universe, and can be observed rather like a fossil in the present day. This radiation, first discovered in 1965, was recognised as definitive proof of the Big Bang with various studies and observations, and was investigated in great detail. Data obtained from the COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) satellite in 1992 confirmed the estimates made in the 1960s and revealed that there were ripples in the Cosmic Background Radiation. (3) Although at that time a partial link had been determined between these and the formation of the galaxies, that link could not be definitely shown until now.
However, that important link was constructed in the latest studies. Colless and Eisenstein's teams determined a match between the ripples seen in Cosmic Background Radiation and those in the distances between galaxies. It was thus established that the galaxies seeded in places where matter that emerged 350,000 years after the Big Bang concentrated in slightly higher densities.
At a press conference on the subject, Dr. Eisenstein said that the way galaxies are scattered across the sky now corresponds to the sound waves that gave rise to that distribution. Researchers think that gravity affected the waves and shaped the galaxies. Eisenstein made the following comment:

"We regard this as smoking-gun evidence that gravity has played the major role in growing from the initial seeds in the microwave background (left over from the Big Bang) into the galaxies and clusters of galaxies that we see around us." (4)

In a statement to the AAP news agency, Russell Cannon, from the other research team, noted that the findings were of the greatest importance, and summarised the significance of the research in these terms:

"What we've done is show the pattern of the galaxies, the distribution of the galaxies which we see here and now, is completely consistent with this other pattern that's seen in remnants of the big bang…" (5)

Findings were also obtained from the study regarding the levels of matter and energy that constitute the universe, and the universe's geometrical form. According to these, the universe consists of 4% normal matter, 25% dark matter (matter that cannot be observed but that is calculated to exist), and the rest of dark energy (mysterious energy that leads to the universe expanding faster than expected). As for the geometrical shape of the universe - it is flat.

Support for the Big Bang

The findings made in these studies have further strengthened the Big Bang theory. Dr. Cannon said that the research added serious weight to the Big Bang theory about the origin of the universe and emphasized that support in these words:

Sir Martin Rees: "We've known for a long time that the best theory for the universe is the Big Bang -- that it started in some enormous explosion in a tiny space and it expanded ever since." (6)

In a comment regarding the studies, Sir Martin Rees, the well-known Cambridge University astronomer, noted that despite using different statistical techniques and observations, the teams had arrived at the same conclusion, and that he regarded this as an indication of the results' accuracy. (7)
Physicsweb.org, one of the most important physical sciences portals on the Internet, commented that the studies "provide further evidence for the standard big bang plus inflation model of cosmology." (8)
Scientists learned that the universe had a beginning (Big Bang) and was expanding (Inflation) by reading the radiation and heavenly bodies in space thanks to the possibilities of modern science. However, these fundamental data are not at all new to mankind. Mankind has been reading these two facts, which scientists were only able to read in the depths of space in the 20th century, in the Qur'an for the last 1,400 years.

Two Basic Pieces of Information about the Standard Cosmological Model Are Provided in the Qur'an

In the Qur'an, and in the Torah and the Bible that were corrupted after their revelation, God has revealed that the universe and all matter were created out of nothing; in the Qur'an, the only text that has not been corrupted, He reveals one other miraculous secret that the universe is expanding.
The way the universe came into "being" from "non-being" is reported thus in the Qur'an:

He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. (Qur'an, 6:101)

The expansion of the universe, one of the main areas of research of modern science, is revealed in this verse:

And it is We Who have constructed the heaven with might, and it is We Who are steadily expanding it. (Qur'an, 51:47)

As we have seen, two elements of the standard cosmological model, the Big Bang and Inflation, were reported in the Qur'an at a time when the means of astronomical observation were very limited. This represents clear proof that the Qur'an was revealed by God. The findings of modern science are in complete agreement with what is related in the Qur'an, and these latest studies once again draw attention to that close compatibility.

Ledakan Besar "Big Bang" Menggema ke Segenap Penjuru Peta Galaksi

Melalui dua proyek besar pemetaan galaksi yang dilakukan hingga kini, para ilmuwan telah membuat penemuan yang memberikan dukungan sangat penting bagi teori  "Big Bang". Hasil penelitian tersebut disampaikan pada pertemuan musim dingin American Astronomical Society.

Luasnya penyebaran galaksi-galaksi dinilai oleh para astrofisikawan sebagai salah satu warisan terpenting dari tahap-tahap awal alam semesta yang masih ada hingga saat ini. Oleh karenanya, adalah mungkin untuk mengacu pada informasi tentang penyebaran dan letak galaksi-galaksi sebagai "sebuah jendela yang membuka pengetahuan tentang sejarah alam semesta."
Dalam penelitian mereka yang berlangsung beberapa tahun, dua kelompok peneliti yang berbeda, yang terdiri dari ilmuwan Inggris, Australia dan Amerika, berhasil membuat peta tiga dimensi dari sekitar 266.000 galaksi. Para ilmuwan tersebut membandingkan data tentang penyebaran galaksi yang mereka kumpulkan dengan data dari Cosmic Background Radiation [Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta] yang dipancarkan ke segenap penjuru alam semesta, dan membuat penemuan penting berkenaan dengan asal usul galaksi-galaksi. Para peneliti yang mengkaji data tersebut menyimpulkan bahwa galaksi-galaksi terbentuk pada materi yang terbentuk 350.000 tahun setelah peristiwa Big Bang, di mana materi ini saling bertemu dan mengumpul, dan kemudian mendapatkan bentuknya akibat pengaruh gaya gravitasi.

Menurut teori Big Bang, segala sesuatu berawal dari ledakan satu titik tunggal berkerapatan tak terhingga dan bervolume nol. Seiring dengan berjalannya waktu, ruang angkasa mengembang dan ruang yang memisahkan antara benda-benda langit pun mengembang.

Penemuan tersebut membenarkan teori Big Bang, yang menyatakan bahwa jagat raya berawal dari ledakan satu titik tunggal bervolume nol dan berkerapatan tak terhingga yang terjadi sekitar 14 miliar tahun lalu. Teori ini terus-menerus dibuktikan kebenarannya melalui sejumlah pengkajian yang terdiri dari puluhan tahun pengamatan astronomi, dan berdiri tegar tak terkalahkan di atas pijakan yang teramat kokoh. Big Bang diterima oleh sebagian besar astrofisikawan masa kini, dan menjadi bukti ilmiah yang membenarkan kenyataan bahwa Allah telah menciptakan alam semesta dari ketiadaan.
Dalam penelitiannya selama sepuluh tahun, Observatorium Anglo-Australia di negara bagian New South Wales, Australia, menentukan letak 221.000 galaksi di jagat raya dengan menggunakan teknik pemetaan tiga dimensi. Pemetaan ini, yang dilakukan dengan bantuan teleskop bergaris tengah 3,9 meter pada menara observatorium itu, hampir sepuluh kali lebih besar dari penelitian serupa sebelumnya.(1) Di bawah pimpinan Dr. Matthew Colless, kepala observatorium tersebut, kelompok ilmuwan ini pertama-tama menentukan letak dan jarak antar-galaksi. Lalu mereka membuat model penyebaran galaksi-galaksi dan mempelajari variasi-variasi teramat kecil dalam model ini secara amat rinci. Para ilmuwan tersebut mengajukan hasil penelitian mereka untuk diterbitkan dalam jurnal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society [Warta Bulanan Masyarakat Astronomi Kerajaan].
Dalam pengkajian serupa yang dilakukan oleh Observatorium Apache Point di New Mexico, Amerika Serikat, letak dari sekitar 46.000 galaksi di wilayah lain dari jagat raya juga dipetakan dengan cara serupa dan penyebarannya diteliti. Penelitian ini, yang menggunakan teleskop Sloan bergaris tengah 2,5 meter, diketuai oleh Daniel Eisenstein dari Universitas Arizona, dan akan diterbitkan dalam Astrophysical Journal [Jurnal Astrofisika]. (2)
Hasil yang dicapai oleh dua kelompok peneliti ini diumumkan dalam pertemuan musim dingin American Astronomical Society [Masyarakat Astronomi Amerika] di San Diego, California, Amerika Serikat pada tanggal 11 Januari 2005.

Data yang diperoleh dari satelit COBE pada tahun 1992 mengungkap adanya fluktuasi sangat kecil pada pancaran Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta.

Bukti Penting Yang Semakin Mengukuhkan Big Bang

Data yang diperoleh dari hasil kerja panjang dan teliti membenarkan sejumlah perkiraan yang dibuat puluhan tahun silam di bidang astronomi tentang asal usul galaksi. Di tahun 1960-an, para perumus teori memperkirakan bahwa galaksi-galaksi mungkin mulai terbentuk di wilayah-wilayah di mana materi berkumpul dengan kerapatan yang sedikit lebih besar segera setelah peristiwa Big Bang. Jika perkiraan ini benar, maka cikal bakal galaksi-galaksi itu seharusnya dapat teramati dalam bentuk fluktuasi sangat kecil pada tingkat panas di sisa-sisa radiasi dari Big Bang dan dikenal sebagai Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta.
Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta adalah radiasi panas yang baru mulai dipancarkan 350.000 tahun setelah peristiwa Big Bang. Radiasi ini, yang dipancarkan ke segenap penjuru di alam semesta, menampilkan potret sekilas dari jagat raya berusia 350.000 tahun, dan dapat dipandang sebagai fosil [sisa-sisa peninggalannya] di masa kini. Radiasi ini, yang pertama kali ditemukan pada tahun 1965, diakui sebagai bukti mutlak bagi Big Bang yang disertai berbagai pengkajian dan pengamatan, dan diteliti secara sangat mendalam. Data yang diperoleh dari satelit COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer [Penjelajah Latar Alam Semesta]) pada tahun 1992 membenarkan perkiraan yang dibuat di tahun 1960-an dan mengungkap bahwa  terdapat gelombang-gelombang kecil pada Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta.(3) Meskipun ketika itu sebagian keterkaitan antara gelombang kecil tersebut dengan pembentukan galaksi telah ditentukan, hubungan ini saat itu belum dapat diperlihatkan secara pasti hingga baru-baru ini.
Namun, kaitan penting itu telah berhasil dirangkai dalam sejumlah pengkajian terakhir. Kelompok Colless dan kelompok Eisenstein telah menemukan kesesuaian antara gelombang-gelombang kecil yang terlihat pada Radiasi Latar Alam Semesta dan yang teramati pada jarak antar-galaksi. Dengan demikian telah dibuktikan secara pasti bahwa cikal bakal galaksi terbentuk di tempat-tempat di mana materi yang muncul 350.000 tahun menyusul peristiwa Big Bang saling berkumpul dengan kerapatan yang sedikit lebih besar.
Dalam jumpa pers mengenai pokok bahasan tersebut, Dr. Eisenstein mengatakan bahwa pola tersebarnya galaksi-galaksi di segenap penjuru langit bersesuaian dengan gelombang suara yang memunculkan pola penyebaran itu. Para peneliti berpendapat bahwa gravitasi mempengaruhi gelombang dan mengarahkan bentuk galaksi. Eisenstein membuat pernyataan berikut:

"Kami menganggap hal ini sebagai bukti kuat bahwa gravitasi telah memainkan peran utama dalam membentuk cikal bakal [galaksi] di dalam latar gelombang mikro (yang tersisa dari peristiwa Big Bang) menjadi galaksi-galaksi dan kelompok-kelompok galaksi yang kita saksikan di sekeliling kita." (4)

Dalam sebuah pernyataan kepada lembaga pemberitaan AAP, Russell Cannon, dari kelompok peneliti yang lainnya, mengatakan bahwa penemuan-penemuan tersebut memiliki nilai teramat penting, dan merangkum hasil penting penelitian itu dalam uraian berikut:

"Apa yang telah kami lakukan memperlihatkan pola galaksi-galaksi, penyebaran galaksi-galaksi yang kita saksikan di sini dan saat ini, sepenuhnya cocok dengan pola lain yang terlihat pada sisa-sisa peninggalan peristiwa Big Bang…" (5)

Sejumlah penemuan juga diperoleh dari pengkajian tentang kadar materi dan energi yang membentuk alam semesta, serta bentuk geometris alam semesta. Menurut data ini, alam semesta terdiri dari 4% materi biasa, 25% materi gelap (yakni materi yang tidak dapat diamati tapi ada secara perhitungan), dan sisanya energi gelap (yakni energi misterius [yang tidak diketahui keberadaannya] yang menyebabkan alam semesta mengembang dengan kecepatan lebih besar dari yang diperkirakan). Sedangkan bentuk geometris alam semesta adalah datar.

Dukungan bagi Big Bang

Sejumlah penemuan yang dicapai dalam pengkajian ini telah semakin memperkokoh teori Big Bang. Dr. Cannon mengatakan bahwa penelitian tersebut menambah bukti yang sangat kuat bagi teori Big Bang tentang asal usul alam semesta dan menegaskan dukungan itu dalam perkataan berikut ini:

Sir Martin Rees: "Kita telah mengetahui sejak lama bahwa teori terbaik bagi [asal usul] alam semesta adalah Big Bang -- bahwa alam semesta terbentuk melalui suatu ledakan raksasa pada satu ruang teramat kecil dan sejak itu mengembang secara terus-menerus." (6)

Dalam sebuah ulasan tentang penelitian tersebut, Sir Martin Rees, ahli astronomi terkenal dari Universitas Cambridge, mengatakan bahwa meskipun menggunakan teknik-teknik statistik dan pengamatan yang berbeda, kelompok-kelompok tersebut telah sampai pada satu kesimpulan yang sama, dan ia menganggap hal ini sebagai sebuah petunjuk akan kebenaran hasilnya. (7)
Physicsweb.org, salah satu situs ilmu-ilmu fisika terpenting di Internet, memberi tanggapan bahwa pengkajian-pengkajian tersebut "memberikan bukti lebih lanjut bagi teori dasar Big Bang dengan tambahan model pengembangan alam semesta." (8)
Berkat ilmu pengetahuan modern yang memungkinkan pengamatan radiasi latar alam semesta dan benda-benda langit, para ilmuwan memperoleh pemahaman bahwa alam semesta memiliki suatu permulaan (Big Bang) dan kemudian mengalami perluasan (Pengembangan). Akan tetapi, pengetahuan mendasar ini sama sekali bukanlah hal baru bagi umat manusia. Di dalam Al Qur'an semenjak 1.400 tahun terakhir umat manusia telah mengetahui dua fakta ini, yang hanya mampu diketahui para ilmuwan di dalam mahaluasnya ruang angkasa di abad ke-20.

Dua Informasi Penting mengenai Model Baku Pembentukan Alam Semesta disebutkan di dalam Al Qur'an

Di dalam Al Qur'an, dan di dalam Taurat dan Injil yang isinya telah mengalami perubahan setelah diwahyukannya, Allah telah mewahyukan bahwa alam semesta dan seluruh materi diciptakan dari ketiadaan; di dalam Al Qur'an, satu-satunya naskah yang belum mengalami perubahan, Dia memfirmankan satu rahasia menakjubkan yang lain: alam semesta tengah mengalami pengembangan.
Pembentukan alam semesta menjadi "ada" dari "ketiadaan" diberitakan di dalam Al Qur'an sebagaimana berikut:

Dia Pencipta langit dan bumi. (QS. Al An'aam, 6:101)

Mengembangnya alam semesta, salah satu di antara bidang-bidang utama penelitian ilmu pengetahuan modern, diwahyukan dalam ayat ini:

Dan langit itu Kami bangun dengan kekuasaan (Kami) dan sesungguhnya Kami benar-benar meluaskannya. (QS. Adz Dzaariyaat, 51:47)

Sebagaimana telah kita pahami, dua bagian penting dari penjelasan yang menjadi rujukan tentang asal usul alam semesta, yakni Big Bang dan Mengembangnya alam semesta, diberitakan dalam Al Qur'an di masa ketika sarana pengamatan astronomi masih sangat terbatas. Hal ini memperlihatkan bukti nyata bahwa Al Qur'an telah diwahyukan oleh Allah. Penemuan-penemuan ilmu pengetahuan terkini sepenuhnya cocok dengan apa yang diberitakan di dalam Al Qur'an, dan pengkajian-pengkajian terakhir ini sekali lagi mengarahkan perhatian kepada kesesuaian yang erat ini.

Penelitian Mumi Firaun Membawa Prof. Dr. Maurice Bucaille kepada Kebenaran Al-Quran

Suatu hari di pertengahan tahun 1975, sebuah tawaran dari pemerintah Prancis datang kepada pemerintah Mesir. Negara Eropa tersebut menawarkan bantuan untuk meneliti, mempelajari, dan menganalisis mumi Firaun. Tawaran tersebut disambut baik oleh Mesir. Setelah mendapat restu dari pemerintah Mesir, mumi Firaun tersebut kemudian digotong ke Prancis. Bahkan, pihak Prancis membuat pesta penyambutan kedatangan mumi Firaun dengan pesta yang sangat meriah.

Mumi itu pun dibawa ke ruang khusus di Pusat Purbakala Prancis, yang selanjutnya dilakukan penelitian sekaligus mengungkap rahasia di baliknya oleh para ilmuwan terkemuka dan para pakar dokter bedah dan otopsi di Prancis. Pemimpin ahli bedah sekaligus penanggung jawab utama dalam penelitian mumi ini adalah Prof Dr Maurice Bucaille.

Prof Dr Maurice Bucaille adalah ahli bedah kenamaan Prancis dan pernah mengepalai klinik bedah di Universitas Paris. Ia dilahirkan di Pont-L’Eveque, Prancis, pada 19 Juli 1920. Bucaille memulai kariernya di bidang kedokteran pada 1945 sebagai ahli gastroenterology. Dan, pada 1973, ia ditunjuk menjadi dokter keluarga oleh Raja Faisal dari Arab Saudi.

Tidak hanya anggota keluarga Raja Faisal yang menjadi pasiennya. Anggota keluarga Presiden Mesir kala itu, Anwar Sadat, diketahui juga termasuk dalam daftar pasien yang pernah menggunakan jasanya. Namanya mulai terkenal ketika ia menulis buku tentang Bibel, Alquran, dan ilmu pengetahuan modern atau judul aslinya dalam bahasa Prancis yaitu La Bible, le Coran et la Science di tahun 1976.

Ketertarikan Bucaille terhadap Islam mulai muncul ketika secara intens dia mendalami kajian biologi dan hubungannya dengan beberapa doktrin agama. Karenanya, ketika datang kesempatan kepada Bucaille untuk meneliti, mempelajari, dan menganalisis mumi Firaun, ia mengerahkan seluruh kemampuannya untuk menguak misteri di balik penyebab kematian sang raja Mesir kuno tersebut.

Ternyata, hasil akhir yang ia peroleh sangat mengejutkan! Sisa-sisa garam yang melekat pada tubuh sang mumi adalah bukti terbesar bahwa dia telah mati karena tenggelam. Jasadnya segera dikeluarkan dari laut dan kemudian dibalsem untuk segera dijadikan mumi agar awet. Penemuan tersebut masih menyisakan sebuah pertanyaan dalam kepala sang profesor. Bagaimana jasad tersebut bisa lebih baik dari jasad-jasad yang lain, padahal dia dikeluarkan dari laut?

Prof Bucaille lantas menyiapkan laporan akhir tentang sesuatu yang diyakininya sebagai penemuan baru, yaitu tentang penyelamatan mayat Firaun dari laut dan pengawetannya. Laporan akhirnya ini dia terbitkan dengan judul Mumi Firaun; Sebuah Penelitian Medis Modern, dengan judul aslinya, Les momies des Pharaons et la midecine. Berkat buku ini, dia menerima penghargaan Le prix Diane Potier Boes (penghargaan dalam sejarah) dari Academie Frantaise dan Prix General (Penghargaan umum) dari Academie Nationale de Medicine, Prancis.

Terkait dengan laporan akhir yang disusunnya, salah seorang di antara rekannya membisikkan sesuatu di telinganya seraya berkata:

”Jangan tergesa-gesa karena sesungguhnya kaum Muslimin telah berbicara tentang tenggelamnya mumi ini”.

Bucaille awalnya mengingkari kabar ini dengan keras sekaligus menganggapnya mustahil. Menurutnya, pengungkapan rahasia seperti ini tidak mungkin diketahui kecuali dengan perkembangan ilmu modern, melalui peralatan canggih yang mutakhir dan akurat. Hingga salah seorang di antara mereka berkata bahwa Alquran yang diyakini umat Islam telah meriwayatkan kisah tenggelamnya Firaun dan kemudian diselamatkannya mayatnya.

Ungkapan itu makin membingungkan Bucaille. Lalu, dia mulai berpikir dan bertanya-tanya. Bagaimana mungkin hal itu bisa terjadi? Bahkan, mumi tersebut baru ditemukan sekitar tahun 1898 M, sementara Alquran telah ada ribuan tahun sebelumnya. Ia duduk semalaman memandang mayat Firaun dan terus memikirkan hal tersebut. Ucapan rekannya masih terngiang-ngiang dibenaknya, bahwa Alquran kitab suci umat Islam telah membicarakan kisah Firaun yang jasadnya diselamatkan dari kehancuran sejak ribuan tahun lalu.

Sementara itu, dalam kitab suci agama lain, hanya membicarakan tenggelamnya Firaun di tengah lautan saat mengejar Musa, dan tidak membicarakan tentang mayat Firaun. Bucaille pun makin bingung dan terus memikirkan hal itu.

Ia berkata pada dirinya sendiri.

”Apakah masuk akal mumi di depanku ini adalah Firaun yang akan menangkap Musa? Apakah masuk akal, Muhammad mengetahui hal itu, padahal kejadiannya ada sebelum Alquran diturunkan?”.

Prof Bucaille tidak bisa tidur, dia meminta untuk didatangkan Kitab Taurat (Perjanjian Lama). Diapun membaca Taurat yang menceritakan:

”Airpun kembali (seperti semula), menutupi kereta, pasukan berkuda, dan seluruh tentara Firaun yang masuk ke dalam laut di belakang mereka, tidak tertinggal satu pun di antara mereka”.

Kemudian dia membandingkan dengan Injil. Ternyata, Injil juga tidak membicarakan tentang diselamatkannya jasad Firaun dan masih tetap utuh. Karena itu, ia semakin bingung.

Berikrar Islam
Setelah perbaikan terhadap mayat Firaun dan pemumiannya, Prancis mengembalikan mumi tersebut ke Mesir. Akan tetapi, tidak ada keputusan yang mengembirakannya, tidak ada pikiran yang membuatnya tenang semenjak ia mendapatkan temuan dan kabar dari rekannya tersebut, yakni kabar bahwa kaum Muslimin telah saling menceritakan tentang penyelamatan mayat tersebut. Dia pun memutuskan untuk menemui sejumlah ilmuwan otopsi dari kaum Muslimin.

Dari sini kemudian terjadilah perbincangan untuk pertama kalinya dengan peneliti dan ilmuwan Muslim. Ia bertanya tentang kehidupan Musa, perbuatan yang dilakukan Firaun, dan pengejarannya pada Musa hingga dia tenggelam dan bagaimana jasad Firaun diselamatkan dari laut. Maka, berdirilah salah satu di antara ilmuwan Muslim tersebut seraya membuka mushaf Alquran dan membacakan untuk Bucaille firman Allah SWT yang artinya:

”Maka pada hari ini kami selamatkan badanmu supaya kamu dapat menjadi pelajaran bagi orang-orang yang datang sesudahmu dan sesungguhnya kebanyakan dari manusia lengah dari tanda-tanda kekuasaan Kami.” (QS Yunus: 92).

Ayat ini sangat menyentuh hati Bucaille. Ia mengatakan bahwa ayat Alquran tersebut masuk akal dan mendorong sains untuk maju. Hatinya bergetar, dan getaran itu membuatnya berdiri di hadapan orang-orang yang hadir seraya menyeru dengan lantang:

”Sungguh aku masuk Islam dan aku beriman dengan Alquran ini”.

Ia pun kembali ke Prancis dengan wajah baru, berbeda dengan wajah pada saat dia pergi dulu. Sejak memeluk Islam, ia menghabiskan waktunya untuk meneliti tingkat kesesuaian hakikat ilmiah dan penemuan-penemuan modern dengan Alquran, serta mencari satu pertentangan ilmiah yang dibicarakan Alquran.

Semua hasil penelitiannya tersebut kemudian ia bukukan dengan judul Bibel, Alquran dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Modern, judul asli dalam bahasa Prancis, La Bible, le Coran et la Science. Buku yang dirilis tahun 1976 ini menjadi best-seller internasional (laris) di dunia Muslim dan telah diterjemahkan ke hampir semua bahasa utama umat Muslim di dunia.

Karyanya ini menerangkan bahwa Alquran sangat konsisten dengan ilmu pengetahuan dan sains, sedangkan Al-Kitab atau Bibel tidak demikian. Bucaille dalam bukunya mengkritik Bibel yang ia anggap tidak konsisten dan penurunannya diragukan.
