The House-Fly reminds frailty of human beings.
Quran e Majeed had informed mankind, 1400 years back, as follows:
We will keep showing, to the eyes of those who do not accept Qur'aan, Our acknowledgeable/ recognizable demonstrative signs/knowledge in the Universe and in their own bodies/selves till it becomes evident/manifest for them that this Qur'aan is a statement of proven fact. The Grand Quran has informed that Allah will keep revealing, the knowledge about the universe and human body, and it will become manifest to the people that the Qur'aan is a statement of proven fact/absolute reality. Why would it become manifest that the Qur'aan is a statement of proven fact when man sees/perceives new knowledge about universe and human body? If the things mentioned in a book written earlier in time and space, but not perceivable by human beings for reason of their hidden nature and not being in their vision, are subsequently found a physical/scientific fact only then it is evident to people that the old Book really contains statement of proven facts and is not conjectural and presumptive. The people who call/worship/submit/demonstrate allegiance to hand made sculpted statues and others considering them various iela'aha never have a plausible argument to advance except claiming that they are following the footsteps of their forefathers. This is nothing but emotionalism far from logic and reason and is rather shackle in which they confined/imprisoned their intellect resulting in inertial state placing them at par with matter/the dead. With a view to perforate their shackle and revive them to "life" they are confronted with a simple reality that a Real Iela'aha is the One Who creates.
O you the living humanity! an example is being quoted, therefore you people be attentive for it.
Indeed those of you who call upon others apart from Allah they will never ever be able to create house-fly species even if they all rallied together/made a collective effort for that purpose.
[what to say of creating house-fly] And if a house-fly takes/snatches away something from their front they all cannot ever recover that thing from that house-fly. o The seeker and the sought are [thus] proved feeble. [22:73] The basic purpose of a book is to preserve knowledge for the posterity of humanity. And if the knowledge/data/fact/information preserved in a book is for the entire humanity then it becomes all the more important that this book should be easy for comprehension since the level of intellect of human beings varies. One method to make things easier for perception is to explain a thing with an example. An example [مَثَلُ] is something that is representative by virtue of having typical features of the thing it represents. It is an illustration that supports or provides more information on an opinion, theory, or principle. An example is one that is visible/perceivable by senses. In the Ayah Metaphor has not been used which is vividly different and distinct from the word example {مَثَلُ}. Metaphorical explanation is not easy to comprehend for men of lowly intellect but example [مَثَلُ] is conveniently understood by men of even ordinary prudence. And for a book, which has been given permanence and is declared a guide and statement of fact, it is necessary that whatever is stated therein should be easily perceivable by every reader in time and space notwithstanding the level of information and knowledge available to him and at the same time it must remain a fact according to the knowledge of each individual in time and space. There was/will not be any listener/reader of Grand Qur'aan who is not familiar with the house-fly since it is found in the vicinity of human habitations throughout the world. In the times when men could not see things by magnifying instruments the impossibility mentioned in the example was a fact for them since they could not detect with naked eye the tiny thing that was taken away by the house-fly. The perception and the purpose of the example was quite manifest to them. It is not said in the example that the man cannot catch or kill a house-fly. The impossibility quoted is that of creating house-fly and taking/recovering back what he has snatched/taken and moved away. Today we can catch and see the house-fly in thousands of larger than original size and could see the particle taken by him and could recover it. But it is stated in the Grand Qur'aan that we will never be able to recover it from house-fly. A house-fly keeps exposing our frailty the world over. The House-fly has a soft proboscis, a trunk like organ that branches into a two-lobed tip and has a spongy pad called a labellum. A specific feature of the house-fly is the way they "digest" food. Unlike many other living organisms, flies "digest" food not through mouth, but outside of their body. The spongy pad [labellum] dribbles saliva onto the thing they want to take away. It contains enzymes that breaks down the thing they want to take away and dissolves/liquefies it. As soon it happens the proboscis is applied on the wet surface and the fluid is sucked by means of capillary action and a bellows like pump in their head. He sucks up our thing from our front, stows away the pad and moves on. We will never be able to out wit the house-fly and get back our "property" he has snatched. Does not this proven frailty of ours and those whom we keep calling suggest us to submit and be exclusively allegiant and sincere to the Creator of the House-fly and wholeheartedly accept His Words permanently written in the Grand Qur'aan?
Certainly this Qur'aan is undoubtedly the statement of proven truth, absolute fact. [56:95]
And that certainly Qur'aan is undoubtedly the statement of proven truth, absolute fact.[ 69:51]
