Pollens Aimed at their Target
 Rockets
have to follow a pre-determined trajectory to reach their
targets. For this reason, very careful calculations have to
go into the planning of the rocket if it is to reach its target.
For instance, the rocket's features, its motor capacity and
flight speed, along with particulars of weather conditions,
such as air density, must be programmed in detail. Furthermore,
there has to be exact knowledge of the structure of the target
area and the prevailing conditions there. And these factors
have to be arrived at by making the minutest measurements.
Otherwise the rocket will go off course and fail to reach
its target. For a rocket to successfully hit its target, many
engineers have to work together and think everything out in
great detail. It is clear that success in aiming at and hitting
the target is the product of teamwork, fine calculation, and
superior technology.
The flawless reproduction system in cones resembles rockets'
being aimed at a target, in that everything is very accurately
pre-planned with very sensitive adjustments. Many details,
such as the direction of the air current, the different thicknesses
of cones, the shape of the leaves, etc., have been specially
taken into account and reproduction plans built on the basis
of this information.
There is no doubt that a cone's possession of a system so
replete with detailed information about fertilization is the
result of its perfect creation by God, the Almighty and All-Knowing.
It is clear that these systems, which have no intelligence,
will, or consciousness of their own, neither in part nor as
a whole, play their role in these unbelievable events by the
order and through the creation of God, Possessor of infinite
power and knowledge, Who controls everything every second
and has planned everything down to the tiniest detail. The
coming into existence of every living and non-living thing,
and every event, result from God's creation. God reveals this
secret in a holy verse:
It is God Who created the seven heavens
and of the earth the same number, the Command descending
down through all of them, so that you might know that God
has power over all things and that God encompasses all things
in His knowledge. (Qur'an, 65:12)
