The average lightning bolt is only about 1 inch in diameter but can contain temperatures of up to 30,000 Kelvin, which is hotter than the surface of the sun.
@engineers_feed ⚡️ is completely ludicrous. Such a wild natural phenomenon.
İKİ MÜHİM SUALE KARŞI İKİ MÜHİM CEVAB BİRİNCİSİ: Eğer desen: "Madem Kur'an, beşer için nâzil olmuştur. Neden beşerin nazarında en mühim olan medeniyet hârikalarını tasrih etmiyor? Yalnız gizli bir remz ile, hafî bir îma ile, hafif bir işaretle, zaîf bir ihtar ile iktifa ediyor?" ELCEVAB: Çünki medeniyet-i beşeriye hârikalarının hakları, bahs-i Kur'anîde o kadar olabilir. Zira Kur'anın vazife-i asliyesi: Daire-i rububiyetin kemalât ve şuunatını ve daire-i ubudiyetin vezaif ve ahvalini talim etmektir. Öyle ise şu havârık-ı beşeriyenin o iki dairede hakları; yalnız bir zaîf remz, bir hafif işaret, ancak düşer. Çünki onlar, daire-i rububiyetten haklarını isteseler, o vakit pek az hak alabilirler. Meselâ; tayyare-i beşer {(Haşiye-2): Şu ciddî mes'eleyi yazarken ihtiyarsız olarak, kalemim üslûbunu, şu latîf latîfeye çevirdi. Ben de kalemimi serbest bıraktım. Ümid ederim ki, üslûbun latîfeliği, mes'elenin ciddiyetine halel vermesin.} Kur'ana dese: "Bana bir hakk-ı kelâm ver, âyâtında bir mevki ver." Elbette o daire-i rububiyetin tayyareleri olan Seyyarat, Arz, Kamer; Kur'an namına diyecekler: "Burada cirmin kadar bir mevki alabilirsin." Eğer beşerin tahte'l-bahrleri, âyât-ı Kur'aniyeden mevki isteseler; o dairenin tahte'l-bahrleri (yani, bahr-i muhit-i havaîde ve esîr denizinde yüzen) zemin ve yıldızlar ona diyecekler: "Yanımızda senin yerin, görünmeyecek derecede azdır." Eğer elektriğin parlak, yıldız-misal lâmbaları, hakk-ı kelâm isteyerek, âyetlere girmek isteseler; o dairenin elektrik lâmbaları olan şimşekler, şahablar ve gökyüzünü zînetlendiren yıldızlar ve misbahlar diyecekler: "Işığın nisbetinde bahis ve beyana girebilirsin." Eğer havârık-ı medeniyet, dekaik-ı san'at cihetinde haklarını isterlerse ve âyetlerden makam taleb ederlerse; o vakit, bir tek sinek onlara "Susunuz" diyecek. "Benim bir kanadım kadar hakkınız yoktur. Zira sizlerdeki, beşerin cüz'-i ihtiyarıyla kesbedilen bütün ince san'atlar ve bütün nazik cihazlar toplansa, benim küçücük vücudumdaki ince san'at ve nâzenin cihazlar kadar acib olamaz. اِنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللّٰهِ لَنْ يَخْلُقُوا ذُبَابًا وَلَوِ اجْتَمَعُوا لَهُ ilâ âhir.. âyeti sizi susturur." Eğer o hârikalar, daire-i ubudiyete gidip, o daireden haklarını isterlerse; o zaman o daireden şöyle bir cevab alırlar ki: "Sizin münasebetiniz bizimle pek azdır ve dairemize kolay giremezsiniz. Çünki programımız budur ki: Dünya bir misafirhanedir. İnsan ise onda az duracaktır ve vazifesi çok bir misafirdir ve kısa bir ömürde hayat-ı ebediyeye lâzım olan levazımatı tedarik etmekle mükelleftir. En ehemm ve en elzem işler, takdim edilecektir. Halbuki siz ekseriyet itibariyle şu fâni dünyayı bir makarr-ı ebedî nokta-i nazarında ve gaflet perdesi altında, dünyaperestlik hissiyle işlenmiş bir suret sizde görülüyor. Öyle ise, hakperestlik ve âhireti düşünmeklik esasları üzerine müesses olan ubudiyetten hisseniz pek azdır. Lâkin eğer kıymetdar bir ibadet olan sırf menfaat-i ibadullah için ve menafi'-i umumiye ve istirahat-i âmmeye ve hayat-ı içtimaiyenin kemaline hizmet eden ve elbette ekalliyet teşkil eden muhterem san'atkârlar ve mülhem keşşaflar, arkanızda ve içinizde varsa; o hassas zâtlara şu remz ve işarat-ı Kur'aniye -sa'ye teşvik ve san'atlarını takdir etmek için- elhak kâfi ve vâfidir."

Two Important Answers To Two Important Questions THE FIRST If you ask: "The Qur'an was revealed for human beings, so why does it not describe the wonders of civilization explicitly, for they hold the greatest importance in their eyes? Why does it suffice with secret signs, concealed allusions, slight indications, and slender reminders?" The Answer: Because the rights of the marvels of human civilization can only claim that much in the Qur'an's discussions. For the Qur'an's basic duty is to teach about the perfections and acts of the sphere of dominicality and the duties and circumstances of the sphere of worship. So in those two spheres the rights of human wonders diminish to being only a weak sign and slight indication. For if they were to demand their rights from the sphere of dominicality, they would receive very few. For example, if man's aeroplane {(*): While writing this serious matter, involuntarily my pen adopted this subtle, though witty, style. So I left my pen free. I hope that the somewhat unserious style does not mar the seriousness of the subject.} were to say to the Qur'an: "Give me the right to speak and a place in your verses," the planets, earth, and moon, which are the aircraft of the sphere of dominicality, would reply in the name of the Qur'an: "You take a place relative to your size!" And if man's submarines were to ask for a place from the Qur'an's verses, the submarines of that sphere, that is, the earth and stars which swim in the vast ocean of the atmosphere and the ether would say: "Your place beside us is so small as to be negligible." And if the brilliant, star-like electric lights were to demand the right to speak and ask to be included in its verses, the electric lights of that sphere, the shooting stars, lightning, and stars and lamps which adorn the face of the skies, would say: "You may enter its discussions and explanations in relation to your light." If the wonders of civilization were to demand their rights with a view to fineness of art and seek a place from its verses, then a single fly would bid them to be silent, saying: "Your rights are not equal to even one of my wings! For if all the fine arts and delicate instruments achieved through man's faculty of will were to be gathered together, they could never be as wondrous as the fine art of my delicate members and tiny body." The verse, Those on whom you call besides God cannot create [even] a fly, if they all met together for the purpose. (22:73) bids you to fall silent!" If the marvels of civilization were to go to the sphere of worship and demand their rights, they would receive a reply like this: "Your relations with us are very few and you may not easily enter our sphere. For our programme is this: the world is a guesthouse, and as for human beings, they remain there only a short time. They are guests with many duties and in a brief lifetime are charged with preparing all the necessities for eternal life. The most important and essential matters will be offered to you. But most of you see this fleeting world through a veil of heedlessness, as an eternal abode, coloured and shaped by worldly feelings. So your share of worship, the basis of which is love of the truth and thinking of the hereafter, is very small. However, if there are among you respected craftsmen and artists and inspired inventors, who, purely for the benefit of God's servants, serve the general interest and public well-being and betterment of social life, which is all valuable worship, these signs and indications of the Qur'an are surely sufficient for those discerning people, who of course form a minority, in order to encourage their efforts and appreciate their art."

@engineers_feed Never realized lightning was that hot! Is anything else on earth so hot?
@engineers_feed Lightning's intensity is truly remarkable. A reminder of the awe-inspiring forces at work in our world.
@engineers_feed That is a tremendous temperature count.⚡⚡⚡
@engineers_feed One struck 15 feet from pops and I watching tv inside. It split a tree & the ground. He didn't budge in his seat. It was so loud it took the breath from me. I asked Woody "was He aiming for me or you pops" and he replied, "must have been you". He kept watching tv w/out concern.
