Why does Allah just create a utopia on earth?

 



  • Al-Ma'idah (5:48): "…….. If Allah had willed, He would have made you one community, but His Will is to test you with what He has given (each of) you. So compete with one another in doing good". 
  • The Mouse Utopia Experiment: Paradise, Piled With Bodies

    In the 1960s, behavioral scientist John B. Calhoun created what should have been heaven for mice: endless food, constant water, no predators, perfect temperature, clean nesting spaces. Nothing was missing. Nothing was scarce.Except space.

    At first, the enclosure thrived. The mice formed groups, raised young, and multiplied rapidly. Order existed. Life looked stable.

    Then the population density crossed a threshold—and things turned dark.

    As crowding increased, social structure collapsed. Dominant males became violently aggressive, attacking others without provocation. Mothers abandoned litters. Infant mice were killed. Dead bodies began to appear in corners and nesting areas, sometimes ignored, sometimes trampled as life continued around them. Violence became routine, not purposeful—just noise in a crowded system.

    Some mice snapped outward. Others shut down.

    A group Calhoun called “the Beautiful Ones” withdrew entirely. They never fought, never mated, never raised young. They groomed obsessively, stayed spotless, and avoided the chaos. They were physically unharmed—but socially dead.

    This breakdown is what Calhoun named the “behavioral sink”: a state where normal behavior disintegrates under social overload. Parenting failed. Mating failed. Purpose failed. Despite unlimited resources, births slowed, then stopped altogether.

    The enclosure didn’t collapse in a dramatic explosion. It decayed quietly—surrounded by food, dotted with corpses, filled with animals that no longer knew how to live.

    Calhoun wasn’t predicting human doom. He was issuing a warning grounded in biology: survival is more than staying alive. Space, roles, boundaries, and meaning are not optional extras. Without them, abundance becomes irrelevant.

    Utopia failed not because the mice lacked resources,

    but because constant crowding turned life into pressure—and pressure turned society into violence, withdrawal, and extinction.

    Lesson:

    A society can rot from the inside, even when nothing looks wrong on the surface.

Leaf Sheep like a pokemon but real


Leaf Sheep like a Pokémon but real this animal eats algae  takes the Chlorophyll from them for photosynthesis as an animal , amazing !!!!

Miracle of the olive oil in the Quran

  • Surah An-Nur (24:35):
    Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. His light1 is like a niche in which there is a lamp, the lamp is in a crystal, the crystal is like a shining star, lit from ˹the oil of˺ a blessed olive tree, ˹located˺ neither to the east nor the west,2 whose oil would almost glow, even without being touched by fire. Light upon light! Allah guides whoever He wills to His light. And Allah sets forth parables for humanity. For Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of all things.

tree kangaroo


The golden-mantled tree kangaroo was discovered in December 2005 by a team of Indonesian, Australian, and U.S. scientists, in the Foya Mountains, in the Papua proivince. Currently, ten species are recognized in the group, nearly all of which are threatened by habitat loss or hunting. The golden-mantled tree kangaroo is considered as one of the most endangered of all tree-kangaroos, being extinct in most of its original range.

Sea slug surprise: It’s half-plant, half-animal

Scientists aren't yet sure how animals actually appropriate genes they need



This green slug, which is part animal and part plant, produces its own chlorophyll and so can carry out photosynthesis, turning sunlight into energy, scientists have found.

A green sea slug appears to be part animal, part plant. It's the first critter discovered to produce the plant pigment chlorophyll.
The sneaky slugs seem to have stolen the genes that enable this skill from algae that they've eaten. With their contraband genes, the slugs can carry out photosynthesis — the process plants use to convert sunlight into energy.
"They can make their energy-containing molecules without having to eat anything," said Sidney Pierce, a biologist at the University of South Florida in Tampa. Pierce has been studying the unique creatures, officially called Elysia chlorotica, for about 20 years. He presented his most recent findings Jan. 7 at the annual meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology in Seattle. The finding was first reported by Science News.

"This is the first time that multicellar animals have been able to produce chlorophyll," Pierce told LiveScience.

The sea slugs live in salt marshes in New England and Canada. In addition to burglarizing the genes needed to make the green pigment chlorophyll, the slugs also steal tiny cell parts called chloroplasts, which they use to conduct photosynthesis. The chloroplasts use the chlorophyl to convert sunlight into energy, just as plants do, eliminating the need to eat food to gain energy.

"We collect them and we keep them in aquaria for months," Pierce said. "As long as we shine a light on them for 12 hours a day, they can survive [without food]."

The researchers used a radioactive tracer to be sure that the slugs are actually producing the chlorophyll themselves, as opposed to just stealing the ready-made pigment from algae. In fact, the slugs incorporate the genetic material so well, they pass it on to further generations of slugs.

The babies of thieving slugs retain the ability to produce their own chlorophyll, though they can't carry out photosynthesis until they've eaten enough algae to steal the necessary chloroplasts, which they can't yet produce on their own.

The slugs accomplishment is quite a feat, and scientists aren't yet sure how the animals actually appropriate the genes they need.

"It certainly is possible that DNA from one species can get into another species, as these slugs have clearly shown," Pierce said. "But the mechanisms are still unknown."

dinosaur like fish called the Alligator Gar


http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/alligator-gar.html

Alligator Gar Profile


The prehistoric relatives of this megafish inhabited many parts of the world, but today gars live only in North and Central America.

Of the seven known gar species, the alligator is the largest, reaching up to ten feet (three meters) long and tipping the scales at up to 300 pounds (140 kilograms). These menacing-looking behemoths are generally olive green or yellow and have a heavily scaled body. A tooth-filled mouth and wide, alligator-like snout give the species its name.

These freshwater giants may look fierce, but attacks against people are unknown. They can pose a passive danger, though—the fish's eggs are poisonous to humans if ingested.

Adult gars have few natural predators, although alligators have been known to attack them. Young are preyed upon by larger fish. Alligator gars prey on fish, but they are opportunistic and have been known to feed on everything from waterfowl and small turtles to carrion.

Alligator gars are found throughout much of the coastal U.S.

8-month-old babies have 1,000 trillion brain synapses.


Synapses are connections between neurons, the cells that control brain functioning. Baby brains go crazy with these connections, making many more than adult brains need. This way, the brain is able to learn what the most useful and efficient connections are, rather than having to have this information programmed into genes. If a synapse doesn't get used, it gets pruned away. By the time a child is 10, the number of synapses in his brain has been cut by half.
Because of this, what people learn in early childhood is incredibly important. If a child doesn't learn to talk, which has happened in some cases of severe neglect, it's likely they'll never be able to, because the synapses that would have enabled communication were never used and therefore destroyed. On the other hand, if the pruning process doesn't stop naturally, as it normally does, even essential connections can get the ax. Researchers at Stanford University recently discovered that certain degenerative diseases, including glaucoma, get their start when the brain continues to destroy synapses.

Shell game: How the turtle got its home


PARIS (AFP) – A stunningly intact 220-million-year-old fossil found in southwestern China appears to have settled a long-simmering debate over reptile evolution: how did turtles get their shell?
In a study to be published Thursday, scientists report on the discovery of a missing-link species -- Odontochelys semitestacea, for "toothed, half-shell turtle" -- whose outer shell emerged directly from the ribs and backbone and not from the skin, as some have argued.
The find also suggests that turtles originated in water rather than on land, and pushes back the group's first known appearance on Earth by some 10 million years.
Since the era of dinosaurs, which roamed the planet until 65 million years ago, turtles have looked pretty much the way they do today.
They sport an armour-like upper shell, known as a carapace, connected to a softer lower part, called a plastron.
