Wishing Upon A Shooting Star
They say make a wish when you see a shooting star, and it shall be granted. The truth is, those shooting stars are chunks of larger space rocks that burn up upon entry into the Earth’s atmosphere. Scientifically, they are known as meteors. Their parent

The Industrious Ants
The other day, while kneading dough to make Indian bread, I noticed a black ant that seemed to have detected the spilled honey on the slab of our kitchen. I smiled at the ant and continued my work. By the time I was finished, there was a long trail of ant

وَاِلَى الْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ
The erection of stable mountains on the earth provides the balance of the earth. As a matter of fact, it is stated in various verses that fixed mountains were placed there to protect the balance of the earth (for example, see Nahl 16-15; Lokman 31-10; Nebe' 78-7). In addition, it should be taken into account that mountains create more comfortable protection and sheltering environments for living things on earth, provide water resources and river opportunities, make life easier for people and other living things with other opportunities such as special vegetation and mines, and thus contribute to the balance and continuity of the biological order on earth. It is also possible to understand the related verses in this direction. For such reasons, the creation of mountains is frequently reminded in the Qur'an.

It is unique perspective that the value of the beings is completely changeable how we look at, for me it is more interesting to view from the divine gift aspect, helping me to avoid from familiarity.

Which One is More Valuable: a Banana or a BMW? by Dr.Necati Aydin
ZOLKEFLI MUHAMAD
Astounding. I love the way the writer describes the signs (ayah) of the signifier or the observed (mulk) dimension. The underwater world has always intrigued me and I am sure others too. The multiplicity and the relationships describe the unobserved dimension, how the underwater world objects and beings of God’s creation lives as unified harmonious system. Reminding us behind the colors, movements and dramas there is the Creator responsible for every second of activity (life) therein. The writing methodology and style is an example of excellence and consistency with 5D Thinking approach. Chapeau!

5D Thinking on the Human Tongue
ZOLKEFLI MUHAMAD
A very well written article on a difficult subject matter. I say difficult because moon is so common and ordinary from layman perspective because one sees it every day without thinking much about it. Difficult because satellite is technical and any description of it can be boring if the approach is not right. IMHO, the best quality of the article is the way the 5D Thinking approach was used to overcome the challenges earlier mentioned plus the fact that the writing methodology and the writer’s style uses the Qur’anic attitude. The article connects the physical realm, with the absolute realms of experiential and transcendent or perhaps the other way round which is not really material. The writing style will help readers to think, acquire knowledge and reflect in the way which is consistent to the Qur’anic attitude and revelation. Meaningfull world - masyaAllah. Chapeau!

Salutations to the Moon
ZOLKEFLI MUHAMAD
MasyaAllah, how something you hardly think of and thought as so ordinaire can be one the critical part of human anatomy. Something you unconcsiously habitually touch hundred times a day everyday throughout your lifetime and your vanity thought as just item of beauty. The next time you look at it in the mirror you must reflect it with asma al husna. You will just be amazed that your nose is also Al-Mubdi (The Originator); Al-Muhyi (The Giver of Life); Al-Mumeet (The Inflictor of Death); ... Endless beuties and gifts from God Almighty. And I can help it but analogise it with the life support machine for Covid-19 advance stage patients.

5D thinking is based on belief that ideology-free science and authentic Divine messages do not contradict each other, as they both come from the same source. It assumes that the universe is an elegant book with full of meaning (signs). It considers pure science as a great way to reveal the Divine signs in the book of the universe. The 5D thinking approach aims to help students to derive certain character lessons from scientific knowledge. It is expected to help students to read the universe like an elegant book conveying Divine messages on how to become a better human being through good character.
The 5DT approach is the first of its kind. It does NOT follow an eclectic approach, that simply add religious and ethical messages to scientific knowledge. Rather, it follows an integrative approach to derive meaning and character lessons from the scientific study of the universe. Thus, the 5D Thinking approach provides an enrichment in our scientific understanding of the universe by enabling us to see five dimensions of the experienced reality:
First, the analytical thinking dimension demonstrates how to filter embedded atheistic ideology from pure scientific knowledge. It explores a particular cosmic phenomenon based on scientific understanding without ascribing the ultimate reality to material causes, nature, or chance.
First, it will filter any explicit or implicit message regarding causes, nature, or chances to be the true source of observed phenomena. For instance, if we are going to talk about how a delicious baklawa comes to be, it is wrong to give a recipe with implied message as if that is possible without a chef with conscious, knowledge, will, and power. It does not matter how accurate and helpful the recipe is, such information will be false and misguided. At this dimension, it is also important that we point to observe universal phenomena as being extraordinary and amazing. Indeed, nothing is ordinary if we remove the veil of ignorance. Thus, readers shall be truly amazed with this extraordinary and dynamic creative acts in the universe.
The 5D Thinking approach shall be appealing to people of different faiths, particularly to followers of Abrahamic religions around the world. Generally, anyone who is interested in learning to integrate faith, science, and character education shall benefit from the 5DT approach.
Science teachers might integrate the 5DT materials into their curriculum to help their students to discover additional dimensions of the reality and gain character lessons while learning a particular scientific topic.
