Evidences to the existence of god

 Islam and the Mind Islam is the sole religion that calls mind to ponders the universe. There are more than one thousand verses that calls the human mind to ponder the creation of the universe. It is really a religion that can be hailed the religion of science. The Holy Quran calls the human mind to ponder miraculous creation of the universe as a manifest evidence to the existence of God.

God says in the Holy Quran what means:

We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness? (41:53)

This great verse tells us that Allah(God) will let mankind know many secrets about the universe that will lead them to the fact that there is a Creator for this universe.• This prophecy has come true when man started to think about the minute details of the creation of the universe.

In the following slides, we will mention someof the scientific findings as regard the creation of the universe.The slightest change in the amount ofchemical elements in the first seconds of thecreation of the universe means the collapse ofthe universe in the very beginning of itscreation.

Strong nuclear force coupling constantIf larger: No hydrogen; nuclei essential for life areunstableIf smaller: No elements other than hydrogen 

Weak nuclear force coupling constantIf larger: All hydrogen is converted tohelium in the big bang, hence too muchheavy elementsIf smaller: No helium produced from bigbang, hence not enough heavy elementsIf smaller: No chemical bonding 

Weak nuclear force coupling constantIf larger: All hydrogen is convertedto helium in the big bang, hence toomuch heavy elementsIf smaller: No helium produced frombig bang, hence not enough heavyelements 

Ratio of protons to electrons formation

• If larger: Electromagnetism dominates gravitypreventing galaxy, star, and planet formation
• If smaller: Electromagnetism dominatesgravity preventing galaxy, star, and planetformation 

Ratio of electron to proton mass

• If larger: No chemical bonding
• If smaller: No chemical bonding 

Expansion rate of the universe

• If larger: No galaxy formation
• If smaller: Universe collapsesprior to star formation 

Mass density of the universe

• If larger: Too much deuterium from bigbang, hence stars burn too rapidly
• If smaller: No helium from big bang, hencenot enough heavy elements

Age of the universe

• If older: No solar-type stars in a stableburning phase in the right part of thegalaxy
• If younger: Solar-type stars in astable burning phase would not yethave formed 

Average distance between stars

• If larger: Heavy element densitytoo thin for rocky planet production
• If smaller: Planetary orbits becomedestabilized 

Solar luminosity

• If increases too soon: Runawaygreen house effect
• If increases too late: Frozenoceans 

Fine structure constant

• If larger: No stars more than 0.7solar masses
• If smaller: No stars less than 1.8solar masses

Galaxy type

• If too elliptical: Star formationceases before sufficient heavyelement buildup for lifechemistry
• If too irregular: Radiationexposure on occasion is toosevere and/or heavy elementsfor life chemistry are notavailable

Number of stars in the planetary system

• If more than one: Tidal interactions woulddisrupt planetary orbitsIf less than one: Heat produced wouldbe insufficient for life 
• Parent star birth dateIf more recent: Star would not yet havereached stable burning phase
• If less recent: Stellar system would not yetcontain enough heavy elements

Parent star mass

• If greater: Luminosity would change too fast; star would burntoo rapidly
• If less: Range of distances appropriate for life would be toonarrow; tidal forces would disrupt the rotational period fora planet of the right distance; uvradiation would be inadequate for plants tomake sugars and oxygen
• If less: Surface temperature differenceswould be too great 

Rotation period

• If longer: Diurnal temperaturedifferences would be too great
• If shorter: Atmosphericwind velocities wouldbe too great 

Gravitational interaction with a moon

• If greater: Tidal effects onthe oceans, atmosphere,and rotational period would be toosevere
• If less:Orbital obliquity changeswould cause climatic instabilities 

Magnetic field

• If stronger: Electromagnetic storms would be too severe
• If weaker: Inadequate protection from hard stellarradiation 

Oxygen to nitrogen ratio in atmosphere

• If larger functions would proceed too quickly
• If smaller: Advanced life functions would proceed too slowly 

Oxygen quantity in atmosphere

• If greater: Plants andhydrocarbons would burnup too easily
• If less: Advanced animalswould have too little tobreathe
