Barrier


Assalamualaykom Warhmatullahi Wabarakatuh

Bismillahi Ar Rahmaanir Ar Raheem


In the ...
world taken as a whole, there are two bodies of water.(1) the great salt Ocean, and(2)the bodies of sweet water fed by Rain, whether they are rivers, lakes or underground spring; their source in Rain makes them One, and their drainage, whether above ground or underground, eventually to the Ocean, also makes them One. They are Free to mingle, and in a sense they do mingle, for there is a regular water cycle; and the rivers flow constantly to the sea, and tidal rivers get sea water for several miles up their estuaries at high tide. Yet in spite of all this, the Laws of Gravitation are Like a Barrier of Partition set by ALLAH, by which the two Bodies of Water as a whole are always kept apart and distinct. In the case of Rivers carrying large quantities of water to the sea, like the Mississippi or the Yangtze-Kiang, the river water which is silt remains distinct from sea water for a long distance out to sea. But the Wonderful Sign is that the two Bodies of Water,though they pass through each other, Remain Distinct Bodies with their Distinct Functions.

SubhanaALLAH!

"It is HE Who has let free the two Bodies of Flowing water: One palpable and sweet, and the other Salt and Bitter; Yet has HE made a Barrier between them, a Partition that is Forbidden to be passed."
[Holy Quran 25:53]

In ALLAH's overall scheme of things, bodies of salt and sweet water, which are adjoining and yet separate. Have significant functions. Weaving a Harmonious fabric out of these different fibres shows both ALLAH's power and wisdom.Incidentally, this verse points to a fact which has only Recently been discovered by science. This facts relates to the Oceans of the World: they meet and yet each remains separate for ALLAH has placed"A Barrier, A Partition"between them.(Eds.)
