🏵️🏵️🏵️ Dear Alvaro,
I would like to extend my gratitude to you for your thought-provoking article on salamanders and their remarkable abilities. Your writing is a testament to the importance of appreciating the wonders of creation. In Islam, we believe that Allah has created the universe and all its wonders, including the smallest creatures, to demonstrate His power and majesty. As the Quran says, "And We have indeed created man and We know what his soul whispers to him, and We are nearer to him than his jugular vein." (Quran 50:16)
From an Islamic perspective, I would like to point out that the concept of resilience and adaptation you highlighted in your article is indeed reflected in the Islamic concept of "tawbah" or repentance. Just as salamanders can regenerate their lost limbs, we humans can also undergo spiritual regeneration through repentance and turning back to Allah. This is a powerful reminder that our bodies are mere vessels, and it is our souls that need constant nourishment and purification.
I would like to encourage you to explore the Islamic perspective on creation and its wonders, as it offers a unique and profound way of understanding the world around us. As the Quran says, "And in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, are signs for people of understanding." (Quran 3:190)
In conclusion, I would like to say that your article has inspired me to reflect on the beauty and complexity of creation, and I hope that many others will be inspired by your words as well.
May Allah guide us all towards wisdom and understanding.
Mohamed, Ph.D
