Allah almighty had created many creatures to Glorify Him and to let us think in its marvelous creation as evidence on the oneness of God who says: (The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things) (Sûrat An-Naml-verse88).….
A strange creature feeds on Coral reefs, it is the Starfish. Allah supported that creature with protrusions to clinging on the coral to be able to catch small fishes and fine sea organisms. It has hands and mouth with no brain and there are more than 1500 species of that creature, some of which have 5 legs and some have more than that.
You have to know that if someone cut a one leg of that creature, another leg will grow up and replaces the old one, and the disconnected leg produces another creature …..
Allah almighty had supported that creature with nervous cells on legs to be used in detection, realization, smelling, tasting and to distinguish darkness from light.
Glory to Allah who guides this creature in the darkness of seas and fits all methods to get its livelihood, God be He blessed and exalted says: (And so many a moving (living) creature carries not its own provision! Allah provides for it and for you. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.)(Sûrat Al-‘Ankabût-verse 60).
