The most Extraordinary Moment Ever!!

**Ibn Syed** · 06-11-2005

A story I found:

The Most Extraordinary Incident Ever!

I was reading a book in the dining room when the printer started to print. Strangely, my computer was in ANOTHER room and I was the only person in the house. I picked up the message which read:

"The oceans, the insects, the planets and their orbits, the light and the darkness, the air and the water, the perfect flow of the universe, the life, how did it all begin? By accident?"

I quickly went to check who was using my computer. To my surprise, I found my cat playing on the keyboard and just by hitting different keys of the keyboard it produced this message! Unbelievable! I came back to read the message again. It was in plain human language and there was no chance that a cat could have produced it. I have tried to solve this riddle but to no avail, but I remembered later that I was taught at school that this whole universe itself is the result of an accident, the Big Bang! The Big Bang was an explosion that formed the earth, the sun and the planets, and consequently the water, air and the life. Yes it was an accident as said by the scientists. Scientists also agree that every single element in the nature has a purpose and essential role in the smooth flow of the universe. For example if one star leaves its orbit or if the composition of the atmosphere changes slightly it will not support the life as we know it.

But, if an accident produced this perfect universe, why can't I reward my cat as it became the first ever cat that could WRITE (accidently though)? If my cat can’t write one paragraph in an accident, how can this faultless universe come out of an accident when there was not even a cat on the keyboard? How can I believe the scientists while I cannot believe my own eyes?

Interesting story brother. But please state your sources.

Jazakallah.

**Muhammad** · 06-12-2005

I don't know if its true...but it has a good analogy!

**Batoota** · 06-12-2005

Quite interesting!

I do know a real story that this reminds me of if you guys are interested. (Actually, whether you're interested or not, i'm typing it

)

There was this woman on an interfaith forum I used to go on. Her username was quiet strange, something like DameStraj..<- really, can't remember the rest. But anyways, she hung out a lot on "our side"- or the Women in Islam side. *I mean if you want, you can go to www.beliefnet.com, click on islamic discussions, find women in islam, press search by name...and you'll get her posts....so you'll see that i'm not making this up!

Anyways, she was Non-Muslim. In fact, she was a believer in the ancient Greek gods, so for me it was pretty interesting when i found out that she loved hijaab and wore it- in fact, the more we talked to her, the more her views seemed islamic...but she didn't seem to know it....

a year later, i was on the internet and i saw a "reversion story". I absolutely love these stories

so i went to read it- it was about Dame! and it was the very same woman since she mentioned the forum beliefnet! OMG..

you know what she said?

The she had stopped finding comfort in the greek gods and that one day.......her little boy (and i'm talking about very little- a very young ONE!) said .........

Allah!

just like that!!

:applaud:

and when he said it, she knew it was no coincidence, so she reverted- and alhamdillah, i believe her husband did too! :applaud:

* i could try and find the exact link if anybody wants to know...........*

When I read it I took the story to be an allegory of the the scientists views. The author clearly stated that the cat wasn't real, leaving there to be no chance whatsoever that the cat could have written it in the first place. So the point is that how can scientists expect people to believe that the universe was created by accident if you cannot believe that a cat typed those words and printed them.

OH! that didn't happen to me though- just in case you misunderstood. I mean it was my story in the sense that i had really met Dame and talked to her- but I'm not Dame..:confused:

*just wanted to make sure that was clear!

Aah, that makes more sense. As an allegory it's sound. If you take it literally it's a bit... unbelievable really. In a bad way.

Wow!! subhanallah! great story!!!

lol sis batoota. No i know it was sister Dame. But since you narrated her incident i said it was your story. Sorry if it sounded like it was your story.

**BlissfullyJaded** · 06-12-2005

Trust me sis...we all know you're not Dame.

SubhanAllah, that was an amazing story. :applaud:

Jazakallah khair sis!

**Muhammad** · 06-13-2005

Masha'Allaah that story was a great read...also the comments below it show how it has strengthened other new muslims like her. Subhan'Allaah!

**Ataraxis** · 06-14-2005

Strange, yet interesting. But, I don't think it's totally true...I doubt a cat could write/type that on accident, and then *accidently* type it as well.

I agree w/ Muhammed..it has a good analogy.
