Abstract

While the Qur’ānic verses address the people who are the respondents, it also brings up other areas of existence that are related to human beings. At this point, the nature and universe that surrounded the human being comes out. The verses that relate to the universe present certain features of the universe from the moment of the creation accompanied by important messages. These messages to the human being, which is an element of the world and constitute the subject of this study. The balanced operation in universe is so principled and systematic that cannot be explained by saying that it has an ordinary system without purpose. To be free from all kinds contradiction and conflicts the universe with its fullness of wise and balanced structure put forward as an evidence of the creation, unity and supreme power of Allāh in the verses of the Qur’ān. On the other hand, the fact that man is personally responsible for the disturbance in the dynamics of balanced and systematic operation reminds us of the responsible and active role of man in the universe. This multi-dimensional equilibrium element requires the human being to adapt to this balanced structure. Therefore, for the balanced structure of the universe to be continuity become possible with the achievement of human being a balanced form. This balance will present the key of the ‘middle way’, which is expressed in the Qur’ān in different contexts.
