Understanding Computers from The Quran

Introduction:

This article shows how to understand computers from the guidance of The

Quran showing the truthfulness of the statement of Allah (God) Almighty in

The Quran in verse 38 of chapter 6 which states: (There is not a moving

creature on earth, nor a bird that flies with its two wings, but are

communities like you. Allah (God) has not left anything out from the

Book, then unto their Lord they shall be gathered). Such that Allah (God)

states in this Quranic verse that He did not leave anything out from the

Quran, which means that the Quran contains all branches of knowledge (i.e.

the knowledge of creation from the creator).

If we link this conclusion with verse 21 of chapter 51 which states: (and in

your ownselves will you not then see?), where Allah (God) Almighty urges us

to ponder and reflect upon the creation of our bodies and if we do that we

realize that our body contains all engineering systems like for example

thermal (skin), chemical (stomach), structural (bone), computational (brain),

etc.

In this lecture I will concentrate on computational systems of the human body

emphasizing on the human brain. If we link all of this with verse 4 of chapter

95 which states: (Allah (God) created humans in an optimal form), which

means that Allah (God) created humans in optimal specifications and design.

Thus if we think about the computational system in the human body we can

find the optimal specifications and design for such a system such that your

textbook would be the Quran and your teacher would be Allah (God).

Pondering upon the human body:

If we ponder upon cell division in the human body we realize that Allah (God)

designed these cells to divide and increase in numbers according to a

numerical sequence which is:

1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, …….

This numerical sequence is shown in figures 1 and 2.

Figure 1: Cell division in the human body.

Figure 2: The numerical sequence which Allah (God) created the human body upon.

If we ponder upon how Allah (God) designed neural connections in the human

brain, we find that Allah (God) designed neural connections in the brain to be

able to deal with inputs based on the numerical sequence which is based on

number 2 that is 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, …….

As shown in figures 3 and 4.

Figure 3: Neural cell in the human body.

Figure 4: Neural cells’ connections in the human brain.

Thus we can conclude that the basic numerical sequence on which Allah

(God) created the human body upon and also creation is: (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,

64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, …….). Thus this numerical sequence is

the best for representing numbers by and to perform numerical operations

by.

Representation of numbers based on the numerical sequence of creation:

Since Allah (God) designed creation based on the numerical sequence of

creation then it can be concluded that any number in creation must be

represented by this sequence, which is proven to be true. Examples on how

any number can be represented by the numerical sequence in creation are

shown in figure 5.

Figure 5: The representation of any number by the numerical sequence of creation.

If we link this to computer science today we find that people reached that the

best way to represent numbers in computers is using the binary system

which is based on the number two, such that in figure 6 it is shown how to

represent numbers using the binary system.

Let us please ponder upon this assumption: If Muslims would have

pondered upon the Quran and knew this information before others then can

you forecast what would have the status of Muslims been now?

Numerical operations using the numerical sequence of creation:

Since the numerical sequence of creation is the basis for representing

numbers then it must be the best sequence also to perform numerical

operations based upon. Thus if we take the following example, which is to

add 1 and 3 using the numerical sequence of creation such that the way is

that when a cell is full and is added to another cell which is full also then the

result would be to shift the output to a new cell to the left and this process is

repeated for other cells as shown in figure 7.

Figure 7: Summation using the numerical sequence of creation.

This mechanism which a person reaches from pondering upon The Quran and

the human body is something that people now learned their basics in

computer science, which people reached after hundreds of years of research,

and an example of this is the addition of numbers 1 and 3 in the binary

system used in computers, as shown in figure 8.

Figure 8: Summing using the binary system.

People in this day and age discovered that the optimal way to perform

arithmetic operations on numbers is using the binary system and computers,

and this is no surprise since as I showed in this article that Allah (God)

created humans and the universe based on the numerical sequence: (1, 2, 4,

8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, …….) in which number 2 is

key and thus the best way to represent and deal with numbers is using this

numerical sequence of creation.
