The Camel: An Amazing Creation Of Allah by lanrexlan(m): 8:28pm On Jun 07, 2013
Allah(swt) said in the glorious Quran in Surah Al-Ghashiyah 88;17-''Do they not look at the camels,how they are created?''

Here are some amazing scientific facts about the creation of Camels.
Camel’s Ears:
Ears are small and little prominent.Hair covers them from each side to protect them of wind-blown sand.They also have the ability to curve backward and stick to head if a sandy wind is blowing.

Camel’s Nostrils:
They are two tight slit-like surrounded by hair and have skin rims.These enable a camel to close the nostrils in order to protect the lungs from particles of sand carried by wind.

Camel’s Eyes:
They have a double row of long eyelashes.They are similar to a trap in that they interlaced each other,so they can protect the camel’s eyes and keep out the sand.

Camel’s Stomach:
The stomach has 4 sides,and the digestive system is strong that a camel can digest anything other than food in dry areas,like rubber for example.A camel doesn’t breathe through mouth,nor pants even in high temperature or thirst.By this feature,it can avoid water evaporation.

Camel’s Milk:
It is one of the miracles Allah specified to camels.Females can be milked 2 times a day for one year in average.The daily average production of milk is about 5-10 kgm.The annual average production is about 230-260 kgm.The components of the milk vary according to the herd a camel belongs to,and vary from a female to another.Although knowing the components of camel’s milk is very important,for the sake of a young camel or a human being who drinks that milk,it,on the other hand,implies and deduces the importance of such milk in the nutrition for a young camel or a human being.Generally,camel’s milk is red-like white,sweet and acrid.However,it can be salty sometimes or can taste like water.The variation of milk tastes is due to sorts of plants,grass and water a camel gets in. PH -sourness measurement- rises in fresh camel milk.If it is left for a while, sourness will rise up quickly.The proportion of water in camel’s milk reaches up to 84%-90% which has a great importance in preserving life of young camels and populations in arid or dry areas.During milking period,milked camel loses water in that milk during dry seasons.This might be a normal adaptation as a camel can supply their babies and people not only with nutrition,but also with liquids necessary to their living and surviving.This reflects the grace and kindness of Allah(swt).As water in milk produced by the thirsty camel increases,fats are minimized from 4.3% to 1.1%.Generally,the average proportion of fats in camel’s milk ranges from 2.6% to 5.5%.Fats are linked to proteins in camel’s milk.Comparing camel’s milk to cow’s,buffalo’s or sheep’s,it was noticed that camel’s milk contains a little amount of short-chain fatty acids.Researchers found that the nutrition in camel’s milk is represented in the high concentration of volatile acids which are considered the most important nutrious factor for a human being,especially for those with heart diseases.An amazing matter is that Lactose in camel’s milk remains as it was since the first month of milking period for both thirsty and non-thirsty camels.This is a grace and mercy from the Most High and All-Powerful to safeguard human beings and animals. Lactose is a necessary type of sugar used as laxatives and diuretic medicines.It is also important sugar composing newborn’s food.Beside the high nutrition of camel’s milk,it has many medical benefits and uses which makes it worth being the unique nutrition that cattlemen in some areas depend on.This is a grace of Allah,the Supreme.

Conserving Temperature in Camel’s Body:
If it was extremely necessary,only a little amount of sweat is dripped.This is referred to the ability of a camel’s body to adapt to living conditions in deserts in which the temperature fluctuates from morning to evening.A camel’s body is covered with thick hair which expels the heat and keeps it out of skin.The system of conserving temperature in a camel can make the temperature fluctuates 7 degrees causing no damages. i.e. from 34oC to 41oC.A camel only sweats when the body temperature is over 41oC.That happens only in certain time during the day.However,at night it releases the heat saved from sun’s rays to the cold air without losing any water drop.This mechanism can conserve 5 litters of water.

Camel’s Neck:
Allah(swt)creates a camel with a long neck,so it can reaches the plants down on floor and leaves high on trees.Besides,the long neck of a camel raises the head high upon filths and enables a camel to stand erect with loads.When a camel sits for resting or stands to be prepared for traveling,its heavy body depends on the callous pads on feet and most weight depends on the thorax;by which it can pulverize an animal or a person in case of lying down on them.

Camel's Pads:
Theses pads are one of the miracles that the Creator granted for this amazing animal.A camel’s structure helps in sitting on the harsh hot sand–which is often the only place for a camel to rest on- so a camel can adapt to it and protect itself against any harm.The young camel is born with those pads.They are permanent and hereditary, not like human beings’ shoes.

In the above verse,The Creator who knows the secrets of his creatures advises people to think and contemplate in creating camels as a creature witnesses Allah’s glory,power and planning......Peace
