56 وَتَحْمِلُ أَثْقَالَكُمْ إِلَى بَلَدٍ لَّمْ تَكُونُوا بَلِغِيهِ إِلَّا بِشِقِّ الأَنفُسِ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَرَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ وَالخَيْلَ وَالْبِغَالَ وَالْحَمِيرَ لِتَرْكَبُوهَا وَزِينَةً وَيَخْلُقُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ). And they carry your load to places which you could not reach without great hardship to yourselves. . Surely your Lord is Compassionate, Merciful. . He has created horses, mules and donkeys that you may ride them, and as a source of beauty. And He will create what you do not know yet. (16:8,9). ALLAH CREATED BEES AND BIRDS 44 وَأَوْحَى رَبُّكَ إِلَى النَّحْلِ أَنِ اتَّخِذِي مِنَ الْجَبَالِ بُيُوتًا وَمِنَ الشَّجَرِ وَمِمَّا يَعْرِشُونَ ثُمَّ كُلِي مِن كُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ فَاسْلُكِي سُبُلَ رَبِّكِ ذُلُلا يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بُطُونِهَا شَرَابٌ مُّخْتَلِفُ أَلْوَنُهُ فِيهِ شِفَاءٌ لِلنَّاسِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَةً لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ). S. Your Lord directed the bee; make your hives in the hills and in the trees and in trellises that they put up. . Then eat of every kind of fruit, and follow the ways of your. Lord that have been made easy for you. . There comes forth from their bellies a drink of varying hues. Therein is cure for men. Surely, in that is a sign for a people who reflect. (16:69,70)
