Why Does the Earth Hum? by Irum Sarfaraz

‘We will show them our signs in the furthest regions (of the earth) and in their souls, until it becomes clear to them that this is the truth’. [41:53]

I read the story of the earth’s humming (http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/planetearth/space_symphony_000323.html) on Yahoo this morning and could only say ‘Subhan Allah! Look at the signs Allah presents to the non-believer and yet they choose to take the scientific path. What else could this humming be but the sound of the entire Universe engaged in the constant hamd and sana of the Creator?

‘The sun and the moon both follow courses (exactly) computed; and the plants and the trees both (alike) bow in adoration and submission to Allah (their creator)’. [55:5-6]

According to the news the earth gives off a continuous hum of countless notes that are though imperceptible to the human ear but are actually akin to a giant exceptionally quiet symphony. But to the scientists who discovered this, the origin of the sound remains a mystery. And it will continue to be a mystery until their mind is willing to break off its subservience to worldly knowledge and start to recognize the real truth behind the creation of everyone and everything. There is a constant rumble emanated by the earth which is far below the limits of human ear and this was first discovered a decade ago by the use of the seismometers. This sound has been called Earth’s humming. If nothing else, they could not have named it more perfectly. Imagine a room full of people engaged in reciting Quran quietly….the sound is a hum.

There is a purpose behind every single one of Allah’s creation. ‘Not without purpose did We create heaven and earth and all between’. [38:27]

Science is of course leading the research on the topic round and round in the same circle as investigators are suspecting that this hum or murmur is an origination from the churning ocean, or maybe the roiling atmosphere. Don’t you just want to go and knock on the doors of their labs and says, ‘Ahem, excuse me for barging in but the answer has already been provided for this ‘great’ mystery….’

‘The seven heavens and the earth, and all beings therein, proclaim His glory; there is not a thing but celebrates His praises, except that you understand it not’. [17:44]

With technology getting more refined the only thing that has perhaps changed in the entire investigation of the earth’s-hum-mystery is the shape of the humming sound. The oscillations that were initially discovered were ‘spheroidal’ and supposedly involved patches of rock moving up and down. But the new investigation says that these oscillations are shaped roughly like rings. But ‘spheroidal’ or ring shaped they are both equally powerful and not something that the scientific community is willing to disregard as being wholly insignificant. And there is no way that it can be disregarded as insignificant for indeed Allah has said:

‘And to Him belongs all beings in the heavens and the earth and all subservient to His commands’. [30:26]

We’ll wait for them to solve this mystery...
