The Seeking Of Truth

Dear Brother’s and Sister’s,

I would like to share with you the miracles and blessings of the Quran’s predictions of genetic engineering. To show how this is the true word of God, and Insha’Allah we will all turn ourselves towards Allah(SWT) and ask for forgiveness and guidance.

In Sura An-Nisa, verse number 119, it states, “And I will mislead them, and I will arouse in them [sinful] desires, and I will command them so they will slit the ears of cattle, and I will command them so they will change the creation of Allah .” And whoever takes Satan as an ally instead of Allah has certainly sustained a clear loss.” (Quran: 4:19)

This was revealed 1400 years ago and at that time no person could imagine what was being said in this verse. However, now we have the time and technology to actually see how amazing and blessed this verse is as predicting the future of genetic engineering and cloning.

Recent scientist’s would cut off cattle’s ears and use the tissues and cells for clonal research.

Japanese scientist produced a paper showing how they took a bulls ears and took the tissue and cells and produced successful clones. In the paper it states, “Ear cells from a prize Japanese bull that were frozen and cultured in a lab over several months have successfully produced clones, challenging the notion that cells become too stale to duplicate.
Cells used in cloning generally are either fresh or have had fewer that 10 “passages,” or periods in a culture medium. But in the current study, ear cells from 17-year-old bull Kamitakafuku went through up to 15 passages over 3 months before they were used to create calves, according to a report in the January issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The experiments, performed at the University of Connecticut in Storrs and the KogashimaPrefectural Cattle Breeding Development Institute in Tokyo, Japan, suggest that a library of cells could eventually be used to create clones at any time, even long after the original animals are dead. It also means clones could be produced from cells kept in the laboratory long enough to complete the slow and meticulous process of gene manipulation.” (http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Ear+cells+from+Japanese+bull+produces+clones+after+prolonged+freezing.-a061578317)

BBC reported how in South Korea scientists would take the ear of a dog and use the tissue to clone another successful dog. It states, “Snuppy, whose name stands for Seoul National University puppy, was made from a cell taken from the ear of a three-year-old male Afghan hound.Scientists took the genetic material from the ear cell and placed it into an empty egg cell. This egg was then stimulated to start dividing and develop into an embryo.” (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4742453.stm).

The Human Genome Project reported how they have used a Cow’s ear tissue cells for clonal analysis on cloning organs. It states, “Many challenges must be overcome before “cloned organ” transplants become reality. More effective technologies for creating human embryos, harvesting stem cells, and producing organs from stem cells would have to be developed. In 2001, scientists with the biotechnology company Advanced Cell Technology (ACT) reported that they had cloned the first human embryos; however, the only embryo to survive the cloning process stopped developing after dividing into six cells. In February 2002, scientists with the same biotech company reported that they had successfully transplanted kidney-like organs into cows. The team of researchers created a cloned cow embryo by removing the DNA from an egg cell and then injecting the DNA from the skin cell of the donor cow’s ear. Since little is known about manipulating embryonic stem cells from cows, the scientists let the cloned embryos develop into fetuses. The scientists then harvested fetal tissue from the clones and transplanted it into the donor cow. In the three months of observation following the transplant, no sign of immune rejection was observed in the transplant recipient.” (http://www.ornl.gov/sci/techresources/Human_Genome/elsi/cloning.shtml)

As we all can see that the Quran, true words of God, has reveled 1400 years ago how genetic engineering and cloning is going to occur by cutting off the cows ear to alter the creations of God.

Insha’Allah, we will all come to see the truth and vitality of Islam. Insha’Allah we will come and turn to Allah(SWT) for guidance. Check out some of my other posts for more truth and inspiration.
