75. Allah's Scientific Miracles In The Quran: The Existence Of Animal Societies

Many animals and birds live in societies and form a structured social order, with different roles and tasks assigned to each. For example, honey bees build their nests in colonies with a queen, workers and males, and the queen's main responsibility is laying eggs. Ants live in colonies with a communication network, advanced town planning and military strategies. Smaller birds protect themselves from predators by surrounding and producing sounds to draw other birds.

Mammals also protect their young as a group, such as zebras and dolphins. Through long years of research, we can see that these animals' social behaviour is mentioned in the Qur'an, proving it is the word of Allah.
