What’s a big bang? It could be the bang of a gun. It could be the banging of a door. It could be just a loud noise.
Truth is, Only The Almighty Can Create ears and the purpose that they serve, that is to hear, whether from the right, left, and anywhere else.
Only He Can Create eyes and the purpose that they serve, which is to behold things for firstly one excellent reason, that is to bear witness that only He Could Have Made all of this wonderful creation to ponder upon, an awesome solar system, a perfect synergy between male and female, the duality between opposing forces of nature, and so on and so forth, which all bear witness to His Supreme Uniqueness as The Only True Power to ever reckon with and to be forever mindful about, whosoever we may be at any point in time.
“Fussilat” is the name of the 41st chapter (surah) of the Quran, which means “Explained in Detail” or “Elaborated”. The name comes from a word used in the third verse of the surah. It is also known as “Ha Meem Sajdah” (“Ha Meem Prostration”) and focuses on the Quran as a divine revelation, signs of Allah in nature, and warnings to disbelievers.
All existence points to a creator, a planner, a controller, who is Allah.
There are so many phenomena that cannot be explained by mere humans, and there is so much of existence that we do not know; there must be One Who Can Explain it, Who Created it.
Ponder the amazing things in this universe, from the largest galaxies to the tiniest subatomic particles; to believe that they came from nothing, without a creator, defies logic, simply.
Mahatma Gandhi famously stated, “Truth is God,” meaning that the absolute, eternal principle of Truth is the highest form of God. While he also said, “God is truth,” the emphasis was on the pursuit of Truth as the path to God, which he saw as a continuous, lifelong spiritual experiment involving humility and non-violence. He believed that seeking truth through self-suffering and selfless devotion was the highest form of worship and that it required the practice of non-violence in thought, word, and deed.
The quote is "What’s in a name? That which we call a rose / By any other name would smell as sweet" from William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet. It means that a name is just a label and doesn’t change the inherent nature or essence of a thing.
If we ask what’s in a name, we may just as well ask what’s in a word, right?
And if we ask the latter, then we may also ask what’s in a letter too, right?
And if a letter is composed of words, then what’s a letter of the alphabet composed of?
And what about an envelope? What’s in an envelope?
The output of @Kimmers would be welcome here, or any other for that matter.
To be honest, given that The Almighty Could Have Created everything just like, instantly, with a simple command, as you said, there could be just as well not have had no big bang involved at all.
AI Overview
The phrase “when he wills a thing he just says to it Be and it is” comes from a verse in the Quran, specifically Surah Yasin (36:82), and describes the power and command of God (Allah). It states that when God intends something, His command is simply to say “Be,” and it becomes reality.

All of the creation follows a perfect order - the laws of nature, as they are called. Such perfection cannot be haphazard.
Imagine if a ship were sent across the ocean without a captain; would it be likely that it would read its destination? So how can our earth orbit the sun, and the planets follow preset motions, without a captain? Rather, Allah Is The Real Captain, The One In Charge of the creation, The One Fashioning, Controlling, and Watching over all things. He Is Unique, Wondrous, and Incomparable to anything that we know.
As far as I know, 1 is preceded by 0, and both can be mirrors for each other.
And why should that be a problem? The Earth is pretty much flat unless The Almighty Enlarges you to macrocosmic extents whence you shall be able to judge for yourself as to what the real truth really is.
Say your two eyes instantly become as large as two suns in the sky itself for instance? How big shall your body have become? And what would your perception of the Earth be thence?
Truly, Who Can Connect everything other than The Almighty?
Nobody. I can only try to grasp how to witness The Perfection of His Attributes all throughout the creation once more.
Allah Has Only Revealeda small amount of knowledge of Himself compared to His Greatness, but He Has Revealed enough knowledge for us to know Him, worship Him and love Him. Without the revelation, we would be lost regarding our Creator, left to make up things about Him, and sadly, many people do. However, there is only one authentic source of knowledge about Allah, and that is from Allah Himself, in what He Has Revealed about Himself in the Qur’an and in what has been taught to His Last Prophet, Muhammad (Peace and Blessings be upon him).
