our homes. But the surface of the pond freezes in winter
and a thick layer of ice forms over it. If the water is not
deep enough, the freezing progresses downwards until
the entire pond freezes solid. Of course, in that case, we
would not be able to move around in the pond. So we
deepen the pond as much as possible. Then even if the
surface freezes, there is still a layer of water at the
bottom of the pond, which is sufficient for us to move
and feed in.
Imran:
You see, Karim. Mr. and Mrs. Beaver know
very well what they are doing. If we were to build a home
in the lake, maybe none of these details would occur to
us. But our friends think ahead and work at what to do.
Surely it is Allah who equips them with the talents to
consider such fine details and teaches them what they
should do.
