What the smartness of tiny invisible Corona Virus reminds poeple?

Coronavirus is a new virus that causes fatal infection in the lungs. It first emerged in Wuhan, China in Dec-2019 and spread so rapidly to other parts of the world that the world health organization declared a Pandemic. It has been officially named as ''SARS-CoV-2'', and the disease has been named as ''COVID-19''. Till now the virus has infected hundreds of thousands of people worldwide and the death toll is rising at an alarming rate that every country in the world is forced to close its borders to other countries and all the social life has come to a standstill.

Like the SARS and MERS viruses of the past, this virus also came from animals. People infected with Corona Virus have shown symptoms those of similar to common cold; cough, sneeze and shortness of breathe, in severe cases, pneumonia, failure of different organs and death. The drug treatment or vaccine against this virus has not yet been developed so people have to take the necessary precautions to protect themselves and others by frequently washing their hands, covering when they cough and sneeze and by keeping themselves at home and at distance.

This is the common information about Coronavirus which you can find anywhere online. But what I want people to be acquainted with here is the extraordinary power possessed by a tiny virus invisible to the naked eye which has shaken the world to its core and baffled, with its unique molecular mechanism, the most advanced science and technology of 21st century. But what is it that has made this tiny creature, other than the will of God, impossible to beat?! The answer lies in the smartness of this creature, the knowledge and technology Allah, the creator, bestowed it with. 

Unlike the human or plant cell, a virus is composed only of genetic material either of RNA/DNA enveloped in a protein coating. It remains inactive and appears non-living, but as soon as it gets close to the cell it becomes highly active, intelligent and cunningly smart being. This mysterious behavior of virus between living and non living is the manifestation of one of the attributes of Allah. 

He brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living... (30:19)

Since virus does not have its own machinery to reproduce, it smartly hijacks the host cell's machinery and uses it to make perfect copies of itself.

When the virus comes close to the host cell, it determines whether it is the right type of cell for it, the virus there meets the security membrane of the cell. The cell membrane only allows to get in known substances that has the match to its receptor protein, the spike protein of the corona virus works like the key to those receptors and thus have the match, and the door to the cell opens for the virus. Once inside, the cell machine unable to recognize the foreign particle as a threat takes the virus to exactly where it wants to go: to the cell's nucleus. The virus then mysteriously makes the cell reads its genetic code, because under normal circumstances the cell doesn't read protein codes except when it needs, but the virus makes it read the code and forces it to make copies of itself, the cell's genome and protein-making factory begins to manufacture copies of the viral genome and protein and packages them into new viruses. 

Unstable to work for its own tasks the damaged cell breaks apart, and many thousands of copies of the virus this way come out to invade neighboring cells.

The way the virus enters the host body, the highly advanced techniques it applies, the understanding of the human cell structure it displays, and then using it for its own benefit is clearly a sign of Allah's marvelous, intelligent and matchless creation that a virus with no eyes no mind act as if it can see, think and make plans. Surely the virus cannot give itself the marvelous genetic information it possesses to enter the cell and hijack its machinery to replicate itself clearly points to the presence of a supreme creator who gave the virus and the host cell all it needs. Just as Allah equipped the virus with a machinery to invade, Allah has also equipped the human body with a powerful defense system which when detects unusual activity sends its army to kill the virus for us to survive. 

But despite this powerful organized immune army, we still fell ill, If Allah willed He could have created us all in a way we would never get ill. But Allah says He has created Human being weak. (Quran, 3:48) and He has deliberately designed viruses to cause diseases.
