THE EYES

How many times is the word Ear mentioned In the Quran?
Times Mentioned: 18 IN 9 Different Concepts

PARABLE OF THE HYPOCRITES
Or like a rainstorm in the sky, bringing darkness, thunder, and lightning. They thrust their fingers in their ears to keep out the stunning thunderclap for fear of death. But Allah ever encompasses the disbelievers. (2:19)

EARS OF CATTLE
“Verily, I (Shytan)will mislead them, and surely, I will arouse in them false desires; and certainly, I will order them to slit the ears of cattle, and indeed I will order them to change the nature created by Allah.” (4:119)

DISBELIVER’S EAR
And of them there are some who listen to you; but We have set veils on their hearts, so they understand it not, and deafness (OKRAN) in their ears; if they see every one of the Ayat they will not believe therein;…(6:25)

And We have put Akinnah over their hearts, lest they should understand it, and in their ears deafness (OKRAN). And when you make mention of your Lord Alone in the Qur’an, they turn on their backs, fleeing in extreme dislike. (17:46)

Truly, We have set over their hearts Akinnah, lest they should understand this (the Qur’an), and in their ears, deafness. (18:57)

Have they not traveled through the land, and have they hearts wherewith to understand and ears wherewith to hear! Verily, it is not the eyes that grow blind, but it is the hearts which are in the breasts that grow blind. (22:46)

And they say: “Our hearts are under coverings from that to which you invite us; and in our ears is deafness (OKRAN), and between us and you is a screen (HIZAB), so work you (on your way); verily, we are working (on our way).’‘(41:5)

And as for those who disbelieve, there is heaviness (OKRAN) in their ears, and it is blindness for them. They are called from a place far away .(41:44)

THE GRATNESS OF ALLAH IN A HUMAN EAR
A pin drops. Atmospheric shock waves disturb the ear-drum, ossicles, oval windows and cochlea. Nerve impulses flash to the brain, where they are heard as a sound. The silence is broken.

The human ear consists of a funnel beautifully adapted to pick up sounds and equipped with fleshy folds which enable it to perceive the direction from which the sounds come. Across the inner end of the funnel, there is a tightly stretched membrane, the ear-drum which vibrates like the skin of a tabla (small drum) when sound waves strike it. The vibrations are passed on and amplified by three bones (called the hammer, the stirrup and the anvil) whose relative sizes are precisely adjusted to produce just the needed amplification. Indeed these bones never grow, they are of exactly the same size in the infant and in the adult.

The human ear can hear the rumble of distant thunder or the highpitched squeak of a mouse. The ear can detect sounds over a large range of frequencies and can distinguish between sounds of similar quality.

The two ears working together are also able to tell from which direction a sound is coming. This ability was used before the days of radar to detect the direction of an approaching aircraft. And because the ear can also distinguish between sounds of similar quality, a trained listener can classify an aircraft as friend or enemy by the sound of its engines – even a radar cannot do this! A secondary function of the ear is to aid balancing.

BEHIND THE EAR-DRUM
The actual organ of hearing is located inside the skull. The part generally known as the ear, which projects from the inside of the head, is a flap of cartilage and skin called the pinna. It is probably the least important part in the functioning of the ear as a whole. It is the visible part of a tube, called the external auditory meatus, which funnels sound waves into the part of the ear where they are converted into messages to be sent to the brain. In other words, the ear is a converter for changing sound energy into electrical energy (nerve impulses) in much the same way as the eye converts light energy into electrical energy.

Inside the ear, fine hairs and a sticky wax prevent harmful insects, dust, and other foreign matter from entering. Special glands secrete wax on to which particles of dust stick; this also forms part of the ear’s defence mechanism.
