    This document discusses Ayat 99 from Sura Al-An'aam of the Quran. [1] It notes that the Ayat refers to green "factories" or chloroplasts in plants that produce grains, known as chloroplasts to botanists. [2] Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which absorbs light for photosynthesis. [3] The Quran's mention of this was remarkable as chloroplasts were not discovered until many centuries later.

    Sura: Al-An’aam
    Ayat 99

    And He it is Who sends down water from the cloud, then We bring forth with it buds of all (plants),
    then We bring forth from it green (foliage) from which We produce grain piled up (in the ear); and of
    the palm-tree, of the sheaths of it, come forth clusters (of dates) within reach, and gardens of grapes
    and olives and pomegranates, alike and unlike; behold the fruit of it when it yields the fruit and the
    ripening of it; most surely there are signs in this for a people who believe.

    The green factory in plants


    This Ayat of Quran tells us that there is a ‘green’ factory in the plants which produces grains. Green factories are
    built up by the plant at the beginning of its growth and are called by botanists “Chloroplasts” which contain the
    chlorophyll. Quran uses the term ‫ خضرا‬for these green factories. Chlorophyll absorbs the light necessary for
    photosynthesis.

    Chloroplasts
    An examination of leaves, stems, and other types of plant tissue reveals the presence of tiny green, spherical structures called
    chloroplasts, visible here in the cells of an onion root. Chloroplasts are essential to the process of photosynthesis, in which
    captured sunlight is combined with water and carbon dioxide in the presence of the chlorophyll molecule to produce oxygen and
    sugars that can be used by animals. Without the process of photosynthesis, the atmosphere would not contain enough oxygen to
    support animal life.

    It is amazing that Quran mentions the chloroplasts and chlorophylls which were discovered many centuries after the
    revelation of Quran.

    This document is based on my under process book. I plan to collect all the Ayaats of the Holy Quran with deal with
    scientific, historical and archaeological subjects. I am trying to provide explanation to those Ayaats in light of
    Previous commentaries (Tafaseer), established science, archaeological discoveries and Arabic lexicons. Send in
    your comments, queries and suggestion at [email protected]

    Please do not copy paste without permission, until my book is published, Insha’Allah.
