GULF MEDITERIAN

QURANI AYAT:
Surah: AL-Furqan
Ayat no.: 53
Tarjummah:
‫اور وہی ہے جس نے ملے ہوئے رواں کیے دو سمندر یہ میٹھا ہے نہایت‬
‫شیریں اور یہ کھاری ہے نہایت تلخ اور ان کے بیچ میں پردہ رکھا اور‬
‫روکی ہوئی آڑ‬
DESCRIPTION:
This verse contains the fourth sign of God's power, which is that He allows two kinds of water to
flow side by side, one fresh and fresh, while the other is salty and bitter, as happens at the
mouths of great rivers.
However, although adjacent the taste of the water does not mix as if there is a dividing wall
between the two, so that one does not spoil the taste of the other.

Although according to the eyes of the two oceans are mixed, but in fact the fresh water is
separated from the salt by the power of God as in His word:

Tarjummah:

‫دونوں میں ایک آڑ ہے‬. ‫اسی نے دو دریا رواں کئے جو آپس میں ملتےہیں‬
‫کہ تجاوز نہیں کرسکتے‬
According to scientists, God has created a separator of sea and river water, even though the river
water falls rapidly from a high place.
This barzakh (separator) serves to prevent the two waters from removing their characteristics
from each other.

The salty and fresh sea seemed to already have a dividing wall between the two, so that it did not
mix.
Humans can make their choice because both salt and fresh water are useful.
In 1873, British marine scientists (with the Challenger) discovered differences in the
characteristics of the sea in terms of salt content, temperature, type of fish/animals, and so on.
Each type of water groups by itself in a certain shape, separate from other types of water no
matter how far it flows.

The waters of the Amazon River, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean up to 200 miles, are still
fresh.
The springs of the Persian Gulf have distinctive fish and each does not live except in its location.

The two seas in question are the oceans that fill around the earth and the rivers that are covered
by the land and that emit springs and large rivers that then flow into the ocean.
Barzakh (separator) is the reservoir of water found on the earth and the channels of the earth that
prevent seawater from mixing with river water so as not to turn it into salt.

The state of salt water that penetrates or flows from the ocean to the rocks near the shore, yet it
does not mix with the fresh water that penetrates or flows into the sea from the land.
The position of the river flow is higher than sea level, allowing relatively little freshwater to
penetrate salty seawater but not mix completely.
