How accurate is the circulating story about American scientists discovering ultrasonic vibrations in tropical plants, analyzing them into electro-optical signals that display the word "Allah" on device screens, with a Muslim scholar providing an interpretation from the verse: "And there is nothing except that it exalts [Allah] with praise, but you do not understand their [way of] exalting. Indeed, He is ever-tolerant and forgiving" (Al-Isra: 44), which led to Professor William Brown embracing Islam?
We have not come across this matter, but Allah Almighty has deposited in the Qur’an miracles and wonders that prove it is truth from Him. These signs and miracles are revealed with the passage of time, as stated in His Almighty saying: "We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth" and "And say, 'Praise be to Allah! He will show you His signs, and you will recognize them.'" Thus, Allah's signs are scattered throughout the universe for those who reflect and contemplate, and everything in it is a sign indicating His Oneness and Power, even the atoms glorify Him with His praise. Therefore, we do not rule out that Allah Almighty may reveal some of these signs through modern means, such as the glorification of creatures.
