“Staying in the air for 11 days straight, a bar-tailed godwit flew from Alaska to New Zealand”
Testifying to the amazing Creation of Almighty Allah Ta’laa, a small creature without any fuel tank nor a powerful man-made engine, this amazing bird broke records traveling non-stop for 11 days straight breaking records among birds.
The longest non-stop flight by a man-made airplane was approximately 18 hours 50 mins.
Ponder O Insaan (human beings), with scarcity of oil and fears of fuel prices reaching sky high levels but here Allah Ta’laa gives us a glimpse of His Sovereign Kingdom.
Will you not reflect upon the creation of this Powerful Creator we worship?
Bar-tailed godwits are “big, noisy and cinnamon-colored,” according to the National Audubon Society
This your Creator draws your attention in His Sublime Speech when you look in the skies
Al-Quran
Surah 67 – Al-Mulk – Ayah 19
أَعـوذُ بِاللهِ مِنَ الشَّيْـطانِ الرَّجيـم
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
اَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡا اِلَى الطَّيۡرِ فَوۡقَهُمۡ صٰٓفّٰتٍ وَّيَقۡبِضۡنَؕؔ ۘ مَا يُمۡسِكُهُنَّ اِلَّا الرَّحۡمٰنُؕ اِنَّهٗ بِكُلِّ شَىۡءٍۢ بَصِيۡرٌ
Translation:
Have they not looked to the birds above them spreading their wings, and (at times) they fold (them) in? No one holds them up except the Rahman (the All-Merciful). Surely He is watchful of everything
