    لَخَلۡقُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَڪۡبَرُ مِنۡ خَلۡقِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَڪۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ
    The creation of the heavens and the earth is indeed greater than the creation of mankind, yet most of mankind know not. (Qur'an 40:57)
    Lo and behold

    And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.”
    [Related by Ibn al-Qayyim in ad-Dâ' wad-Dawâ Fasl 49]

    Re: Lo and behold

    I remember looking at the video of the same images long ago. lol just looking at it should make us realize our worldly "problems" are REALLY that trivial . If we reflect and use the above images to compare, we are about as big as a microbe under a microscope . So really, is all that drama in our lives really worth it?

    That's reality. lol.

    Re: Lo and behold

    You see the small black dot there? Thats me waving! i'm 1,95(6'4 feet) meters tall so you can probably see me.

    We are really small indeed, humbling feeling, we totally are just from clay and dust. The same feeling you get when remembering that you have no power, and that you cant do anything without the will of Allah subhana wa'a ta'ala.

    I was just kidding with I've written above. But, it's because the earth in first picture was really interesting me. Look, Indonesia is located at the center. It's seem like that picture made by someone in/from Southeast Asia. Very uncommon for American or European to draw the globe like this.

    Very humbling! In the grand scheme of things, we are no bigger than microscopic particles. Allahu Ahkbar!
