The Qur'an pointed to the existence of microscopic life forms that are invisible to the naked eye and consist of a single cell. Today, modern technology has enabled us to discover this secret world, with an estimated 20 times more microorganisms than animals on Earth. These tiny life forms are essential for life on Earth, such as the nitrogen cycle, photosynthesis and decomposition of organic substances.
Fourteen centuries ago, the Qur'an indicated the existence of living things beyond those which can be seen with the naked eye. This is another spectacular miracle contained within the verses of the Qur'an.
