Secrets Of Quran Miracles

[القلب الحزين]

Birds are lying



Do birds lie like humankind? Of course! The Quran speaks about the similarities between humans and the creatures surrounding them. Allah (SWT) says:”There is not a moving (living) creature on earth, nor a bird that flies with its two wings, but are communities like you…” [Al-An-am:38] ….

After performing numerous experiments, scientists were astonished when they discovered that birds lie just like humans! The world of birds is full of secrets which scientists couldn’t discover except some of them. The lying phenomenon in birds is a new discovery the scientists found out a few years ago. Birds lie in order to obtain their food; they may also lie and cheat to attract a female!

However, Quran, the book of oneness, told us about this situation when mentioning the hoopoe bird in the Prophet Solomon’s story with Balqees. Allah (SWT) gave the prophet Solomon the ability to understand the birds’ ******** and to speak to them. In the story, when the hoopoe bird arrived late and told the king Solomon that he found people who prostrate to the sun instead of Allah, Solomon told him: “We shall see whether you speak the truth or you are (one) of the liars” [An-Nama:27]. This verse verifies that birds can be either trustworthy or dishonest. This is what the scientists have discovered very recently! Here a person asks: how did the prophet Solomon know that birds lie? And who told the noble prophet Muhamed, peace be upon him, this story? Indeed, Allah almighty is the one who created birds and their world.
