lights. At other times we use it to frighten our enemies and keep
them away from us."
Kamal was very impressed by what his friend had
been telling him: "So everything you need is inside your
own bodies, and there's no need to tire yourselves out!"
"That's right," the glow-worm agreed. "Despite all their
best efforts, scientists have been unable to develop a system
quite like ours. As I said before, Allah created us in the most
beautiful way and in the way most suited to our needs, just like all
other living things."
Kamal smiled. "Thank you. What you have told me is very in-
teresting. I now realize what the verse I read yesterday means, 'Is
He Who creates like him who does not create? So will you not pay
heed?' (Surat an-Nahl: 17) When you think of all the living things
Allah created and ourselves, there are plenty of examples to take
heed of!!"

He is Allah—the Creator, the
Maker, the Giver of Form. To Him
belong the Most Beautiful Names.
Everything in the heavens and
earth glorifies Him. He is the
Almighty, the All-Wise. (Surat al-
Hashr: 24)
