The wisdom of God from the creation of human beings

From the wisdom of God Almighty to create the earth and Adam and Eve for human beings to multiply and everyone on it to worship Him alone and not to disobey Him and to resort to Him, Glory be to Him, in good times and adversity. And he guides us, with the will of God Almighty, to the path to Heaven and forbids us from disobeying God and following and seducing Satan.


But Satan has promised a person that he will distance him from religion and facilitate the path of disobedience for man and spoil his life for him from every direction and every side until the fire of Hell enters him and God forbid God from the accursed Satan, since the true believing Muslim does not obey the commands of Satan and remains, God willing, on the path of guidance .


Whereas, the hatred of Satan towards the children of our master Adam, peace be upon him, is from the moment the child is born, and this is what we will talk about now, and it is the cause of the crying and screaming of the child at the moment of birth, and it is the cry that parents eagerly await and love that sends joy and happiness in the heart This cry indicates that the child's health is in good condition.


There are two main reasons for a baby to cry

  1. The esoteric reason of faith that our beloved (the Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace) told us, is that no newborn is born without being betrayed by Satan, and he begins crying out from the touch of Satan. In another term: every human being is touched by Satan on the day of his birth Except Mary and her son.) The true religion does not contradict science, but science and religion are complementary to each other, so it is not permissible to deny any part. Islam is the religion of truth, regardless of differences in scholars for many interpretations.
  2. Scientific reason for baby crying (external reason):


  • The fetus is nourished in the womb of its mother through the placenta throughout pregnancy, and it grows gradually until its organs are fully completed as the lungs take longer to grow because they are full of placental fluid, so the heart in this case is responsible for pumping blood from the right to the left directly by the blood vessels without Crossing the lungs.
  • The fetus in its mother’s womb takes oxygen from inside the womb, and whenever the mother inhales the new oxygen, he inhales the new oxygen, so the color of the fetus tends to be purple.
  • Shortly before birth, the lungs become ready to work as the blood vessels begin to close gradually, and then the holes on the right and left sides of the heart of the fetus are closed. The lungs work by passing the blood through them, the lungs start their work as the blood starts flowing first through the side. The left side of the heart to flow from the lungs to the left side of the heart, and when the main blood vessels close, the blood begins to flow from the right side of the heart to the lungs.
  • At this stage, small blood vessels inside the lungs appear, which serve to transport blood to and from the heart and to the lungs, now that the fetus is able to breathe oxygen alone and is ready to fight the battle of life outside its mother's womb.
  • The thing that happens when the baby is born within (2 - 4) minutes, is a reaction to what happened to him from the reaction when his wet body due to the chorionic fluid touched the air or the outside atmosphere, as he inhales cold air and a blood clot closes all the holes in the heart. In order for him to become a normal child, and if this blood clot occurred immediately after his birth, God forbid, the fetus needs time for a heart operation to close the last opening, which leads to the crying of the child.
  • This reaction accompanies him in the months up to his birth, when the diaper is wet or when he comes into contact with water when bathing, we find the child breathing loudly.


The reaction of external atmospheric pressure

As for the reaction that the fetus was exposed to, which is known as (the reaction of external atmospheric pressure), as this process raises the blood pressure of the fetus and makes the child cry and breathe deeply and breathe quickly, this happens because of his exposure to a different temperature than what he used to live inside The uterus at this moment shrinks the diaphragm, and the muscle at the bottom of the lungs shrinks, as well as the muscles between the ribs shrink and lead to an enlargement of the lungs, which causes negative pressure in the chest.


What is indicated by increased crying of the fetus

The more the child cried, the more oxygen was inhaled, and in this way the amount of blood flowing to the lungs increased, as by this process he had a mature heart with two bellies and ears, and fully developed lungs, and he became able to coexist outside his mother's womb.


Glory to God the Creator: When a fetus comes out of its mother’s womb, it needs a blood clot to live, and when it grows up and experiences a stroke, its intensity is lighter and kills its life, God forbid, and praise be to God who created us with the best evaluation.
