How can penguins walk for kilometers with their large bodies and small legs in polar conditions?
Penguins walk like a pendulum swinging themselves to the right and left. They take their steps to their sides in order to save energy and enable muscles to get less tired. So they save energy at the end of each step to use in the next one. If they walked in a normal way, they would have to use twice as more energy than an animal of their size due to the fact that their legs are short. However, penguins consume energy only when they begin and stop walking. These characteristics of penguins are one of the biggest evidences of the compassion and mercy of Allah over living beings. To walk in a way that saves energy by making kinetic and potential energy transformation, is not a method that can be adopted by any penguin. Unless Allah inspires so, no penguin can know about this transformation of potential and kinetic energy and form a walking style that can achieve that. The control of Allah over living beings is revealed in one verse of the Qur’an: “… There is no creature He does not hold b
