"And We have made from water every living thing, will they not then believe?"
This verse was understood by the earlier generations and by people in our own time and it will be understood by people in the future quite clearly that water is the basis of life.
Scientific progress has shown us many details that confirm this concept.
Water -The basis of life
Water is the basis of life. All living creatures starting from the virus which can only be seen with an electronic microscope to the entire plant and animal kingdom as well as human beings cannot exist without water. Water is the basis of all biological, metabolic and chemical functions occurring the the living body.
Unique Physical Properties of Water
Water also posses physical properties that make it the basis for life. All liquid solutions, when they change from a liquid to a solid state, increase in density and become heavier, except for water. Allah, has created in it unique characteristics. When water gets frozen into ice it floats and travels around in the sea and in frozen lakes. If it were heavy it would sink and kill off plants and animal life in oceans. Life would not exist, and if there is no life in water then undoubtedly there would be no life on dry land either.
Oxygen-originates from Water
Even the air that we breathe that is oxygen that we take in after chemical experiments has shown has its origin from water.
Capillary action of Water
With regard to capillary action of water, by which water rises from the roots of plants to their leaves without the aid of pumps is a unique characteristic that Allah has created for the plants to get water and grow.
