عَقْل
The verse invites us to observe nature with our reason.
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّقَوۡمٖ يَعۡقِلُونَ
Indeed in that are signs for a people who reason.
Quran, Ar-Ra'd 13:4
In this verse, Allah draws our attention to neighboring plots of land, vineyards, crops, and palm trees. They are watered by the same water, yet their fruits differ in taste and quality. This diversity is a sign for those who use their reason. Our daily life is full of such signs. By reflecting on the variety of fruits and lands, we can recognize Allah's power and wisdom. Reason helps us see beyond appearances and understand that all this is not mere chance.
Today, observe a fruit or vegetable and reflect on the diversity of tastes and colors. Take a moment to thank Allah for His creation.
