Thus the digestive system is not only a chemical factory, but a
power house as well. For through this, energy and nutrition are
derived from the food we partake.
It is also efficient in separating toxins to be discharge by another
system, while it converts and breakdown substances by a
complex chemistry involving acids, enzymes, protein, etc.
Even in the ‘waste discharge system’ it is efficient.

The pancreas also creates and secretes insulin, glucagon and other
hormones.
Insulin and glucagon are especially important for the maintenance of
blood sugar, as insulin lowers the blood sugar and glucagon increases
the blood sugar according to the body's needs.
Injury or disease of the pancreas can result in severe illness and
possibly death.

The kidneys are a pair of vital organs that perform many functions to
keep the blood clean and chemically balanced.
They are bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are
located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on
each side of the spine.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
The kidneys are sophisticated reprocessing machines. Every day, a
person’s kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to sift out about 2
quarts of waste products and extra water.
The wastes and extra water become urine, which flows to the bladder
through tubes called ureters. The bladder stores urine until releasing it
through urination.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
Wastes in the blood come from the normal breakdown of active
tissues, such as muscles, and from food. The body uses food for
energy and self-repairs. After the body has taken what it needs from
food, wastes are sent to the blood.
If the kidneys did not remove them, these wastes would build up in
the blood and damage the body.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
The actual removal of wastes occurs in tiny units inside the kidneys
called nephrons. Each kidney has about a million nephrons.
In the nephron, a glomerulus —which is a tiny blood vessel, or
capillary—intertwines with a tiny urine-collecting tube called a tubule.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
The glomerulus acts as a filtering unit, or sieve, and keeps normal
proteins and cells in the bloodstream, allowing extra fluid and wastes
to pass through.
A complicated chemical exchange takes place, as waste materials and
water leave the blood and enter the urinary system.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
At first, the tubules receive a combination of waste materials and
chemicals the body can still use. The kidneys measure out chemicals
like sodium, phosphorus, and potassium and release them back to the
blood to return to the body.
In this way, the kidneys regulate the body’s level of these substances.
The right balance is necessary for life.
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
In addition to removing wastes, the kidneys release three important
hormones:
- erythropoietin, or EPO, which stimulates the bone marrow to make
red blood cells;
- renin, which regulates blood pressure;
- calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, which helps maintain calcium
for bones and for normal chemical balance in the body.

After observing so many wonderful organs in ourselves, each
organ is prepared with such complexity and amazingly equipped
to function in such a manner to sustain us - and these are
outside our conscious ability to directly manage them, but
somehow are being managed for us - surely, we have to
concede of the power of Allah, the Creator and Sustainer.

Who designed them? and Whose power Sustains and continue to
manifest a Will over them for us?
To deny this is sheer arrogance and surely preposterous to
merely ascribe it to 'nature'.
And what is 'nature'? An unknown entity, devoid of any
attribution of Will nor intelligence. ... Yet they imply that it can
sustain us !??
All Rights Reserved ©Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.2014
How stubbornly foolish! Nay, if we sincerely look within our heart
and mind, especially reinforced and supported by our pure
intuition (fitrah), these evidence prove clearly of the existence of
an absolute Creator and Sustainer.
And there can only be One Who is the Absolute - and to deny this
is to conceal or cover an obvious truth (the attitude termed 'kufr').
