It was not until the role of nerve endings in thepeople learned about the existence of certain nerve endings which transmit feelings of pain to the brain. The skin is associated with sensitivity because it contains the majority of nerve .endings fication of the skin’s sensitivity, there are two groups of According to Dr. Head’s classifeelings: 1) Epictritic which senses light things, like a light touch or a slight change in temperature; and 2) Protopathic which feels pain and considerable change in temperature. ategories uses certain nerve cells in addition to other receptors for sensing Each of these cany environmental change. These receptors can be categorized into four kinds: 1) Exteroceptors which are concerned with the faculty of sense and touch and which contain and merkels corpuscles, 2) Krause End Bulbes which are concerned with coldness, meissners3) Ruffini Cylinders which are concerned with heat and 4) Nerve Endings that can transmit h with such any feeling of physical pain. The skin is considered the part of the body that is ric.nerve endings that transmit heat and pain Anatomists have proved that people whose skin has been completely burnt cannot feel pain -because their nerve endings are damaged. This is different from a person who has a secondill experience severe pain as his nerve endings are not damaged, but degree burn, for he w.are rather, uncovered Anatomists have also proved that the small intestines do not have any receptors. However, intestines. This receptors can be found between the peritoneum and the outer layer of the area contains a lot of small bodies known as pacini. The size of the peritoneum is 20,400 cubic centimeters, which makes it equal to the size of the outer layer of the skin. Also, the .skin receptors of the intestines are similar to those in the :Facets of Scientific Inimitability Almighty Allah explains to us in the first verse that the skin is the part of the body that A)will receive the punishment, i.e. there is a connection between the skin and the sensation of

The verse also tells us that when the skin is burnt (i.e. ifeel the pain of the punishment and so his burnt skin is replaced with new fresh skin where the nerve endings are functioning properly and can transmit the feeling of pain. In this way, a nial of Allah’s signs. Modern science has shown us that the disbeliever will suffer due to his demajority of nerve endings are found in the skin. Prior to the invention of microscopes and the progress made in the field of anatomy, no human being could have any knowledge about this Glorious Qur'an fourteen centuries ago. This is a miracle -fact related by the Everscientific .and a great sign of Allah The Qur'an threatens the disbelievers in the second verse that their intestines will be B)ved only recently when scientists severed. The secret behind this threat has been soldiscovered that the intestines are not affected by heat. However, if they are severed, the boiling water will flow out to the place between the peritoneum and the outer layer of the nerve endings that transmit the feeling of pain to the intestines. This place contains a lot of.brain and thus man will experience severe pain Glorious Qur'an which related -These facts show the miraculous scientific nature of the Evers able to give any information these facts to mankind a long time before modern science wa.about them
