The Alternation of Night and Day and the Change of Seasons:
The alternation of night and day is also one of the greatest signs of the recognition of Allah, which Allah has mentioned at many places in the Noble Quran. Allah Almighty has created such a coordinated system of the movement of celestial bodies that night and day keep coming alternately. At one place, nights are increasing at a particular time, while at another place, at the same time, they are decreasing. Then, through this very system, the seasons keep changing at every place, which proves helpful in the ripening of various kinds of crops and plants. There is a deep connection between the ripening of crops and the seasons. In short, this system of Allah Almighty is so astonishing and full of benefits that the more one reflects upon it, the more the greatness and majesty of Allah settle in the heart of a person. According to the current theory, all these results are achieved due to the axial rotation of the earth and its annual revolution around the sun. It is worth pondering: who is that Being who has compelled such a massive body as the earth to keep rotating around the sun on its axis at an angle of six and a half degrees at a speed of sixty-six thousand six hundred miles per hour, and to keep rotating continuously, never allowing the slightest deviation in this rotation? Moreover, He is constantly keeping a strict watch over it. ﴿فَاعْتَبِرُوْا يٰٓاُولِي الْاَبْصَارِ﴾
