I reflect and explain
             One of the 99 names of Allah is “the Originator” Al Badi’u (عععيدبلععا), 
                                                             Allah says 
                                                   (ضلراررراو تراومسلررا عريدررب ) P37 & P38 
                                                  Badi ‘us-Samawati wal-ardh
                                “The originator of the heavens and the earth….”
             •   Explain the meaning of this name “Al Badi’u”( (عععيدلعبعاusing an e- dictionary.
             Al Badi’u means unmatched in His attributes or actions, God 
             created things starting with no previous examples.
                     I express:
             The way I conceive the innovation.
             To invent a new thing which is unfamiliar in any aspect of life, overcome 
             obstacles and difficulties to achieve progress and prosperity of the highest 
             degree. Like, inventing a medicine for cancer diseases
                           •     The concept of creative thinking 
                           Allah (ىلعاعععععت      ) Says:
                             (34)نويعلا نم  اهيف انرجفو بانعأو ليخن نم تانج اهيف انلعجو
                                    سي ةروس (35)نوركشي لفأ مهيديأ هتلمع امو هرمث نم اولكأيل
                           “And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and 
                           grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some 
                           springs – That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands 
                           have not produced it, so will they not be grateful?”
                           These verses from Quran Kareem denote on the 
                           perfection of our God in His creation.
                           Creative Thinking is a productive process; it is the 
                           kind of thinking which produces the unusual.
             The comparison between the 
             innovation and development (Page 40)
          Innovation     Presenting something which is new and 
                         useful.
          Development Is the transition or changing from one stage to 
                         another.
        Islam urges people to innovate: P40
            We have two stories from the Holy Quran which indicate about 
             the innovation:
              1. The first  story was related to Dhul-Qarnayn (Surat al Al 
                  kahf), when people asked him (Dhul –Qarnayn ) to build a 
                  dam to protect them from bad people of Gog and Magog, 
                  Therefore he built unfamiliar barrier and Allah blocked the 
                  passage of Gog and Magog until a time to Day of Judgement. 
           Normative,              Evidence              Unfamiliar act                 Evidence
            customary                                     (innovation)
                 act
                               They asked              Built the barrier          He demonstrated 
          The barrier          Dhul – Qarnayn  and the material                   the act to them, 
                               to built a dam          used to construct  step by step
                                                       it
             2. The second story 
             When the Prophet  Yousef  discovered  a  creative  solution  to  protect 
             grains  against  corruption  during  storage,  which  saved  Egypt  from 
             starvation. The solution was based on storing the grains without 
             removing them from ears and take only the required amount 
             of ears.
                                                    ً
             {بالبلررا اولورلأ ررإ ركذرري امرو اريثررك اريخير  تروأ دفررف ةمكحلررا تؤررينر  م و ءاشررينر  م ةمكحلررا يرتؤرري   } 
                                              ً
             “He gives wisdom to whom He wills, and whoever has been given wisdom 
             has certainly been given much good. And none will remember except those 
             of understanding.” (Surah al Baqarah 2: 269)
