What is the scientific interpretation of the noble verse: "O mankind, a parable is presented, so listen to it. Indeed, those whom you invoke other than Allah will never create [as much as] a fly, even if they gathered together for it. And if a fly were to steal anything from them, they would not be able to recover it from it. Weak are the pursuer and pursued," and what is the aspect of its scientific miraculousness?
The noble verse (Al-Hajj: 73) provides an example of the weakness of creatures invoked besides Allah; they cannot create a fly, even if they were to gather, nor can they retrieve what the fly snatches from them. This is because the fly secretes enzymes to digest food outside its body and convert it into a liquid substance, so what it takes cannot be recovered in its original form. This demonstrates the miraculous nature of the Quran.
