--Inspired from a late night conversation--
We're all so alike, physical features draw our similarities. Look out your window, scan your eyes across the room, the norm will be that we have two eyes, pupils flecked with colours and indefinite length of eyelashes on the ridges of our eyelids, eyebrows line above our eyes. A nose bridges outwards above two moist lips, teeth sharp enough to bite, strong enough to withstand constant wear and tear of everyday eating. Five digits on each hand and foot, nails which grow at the tips of these digits. Bones encased in skin, movement enabled by the muscles and tendons so carefully programmed to work the way we desire. Nerves tingle and carry mundane messages every second, we're all so similar in our physical properties.
Minor differences separate us, maybe the colour of our skin, the slight alterations in our features yet these are all similar in function. It's amazing how though we have the same capacities to breathe, talk, eat and simply live- we are all so unique in personality, character and interests.
A child born in a family dedicated to sciences, cousins immersed in biochemistry, dentistry, pharmaceutical sciences would grow up to be interested in something completely diverse. It's mind boggling how these things happen, we're all so alike in how we function physically but so different in how our thoughts are. Maybe comparing us to robots all created by one hand and then leaving them to the wilderness to see how they would behave with just the basic programming is a bad idea for me. I dunno, I was just so intrigued by how beautiful the world and creation is- all praise to the Creator, of course.

Omg this is truely ghandu (our meaning)
This post reminded me of the ayaat:
"Behold! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day - there are indeed Signs for men of understanding. Men who celebrate the praises of Allah, standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and contemplate the (wonders of) creation in the heavens and the earth, (With the thought): "Our Lord! not for naught Hast Thou created (all) this! Glory to Thee! Give us salvation from the penalty of the Fire."
Qur'an 3:190-1
Salam Hali,
Hey this post I couldn't resist not commenting as I always do.
Excellently written out, I just love it, MashaAllah!
@iMuslim, Bravo !
See the CREATOR in the CREATION is my signature saying to all !!! ( Spiral_galaxy ;-))
now you inspire me :)
hmm I dont know. We might look alike but we are all very different. Even two siblings dont have the same interests. Sometimes I wish we were alike-- we would be a lot happier that way. But most of the times, I am happy with my individuality. :-)
Creator? Darwin? Evolution? I'm brain fucked.
yeah all praise to the Creator ! :)
:)
Simply a beautiful post...
