Allah Gave Me Nose To Smell Allah The Maker
![Jese Leos](https://epilogueepic.com/author/david-mitchell.jpg)
As human beings, we are blessed with several senses that allow us to experience the world around us. One of the most amazing gifts we have is our sense of smell, which enables us to perceive and distinguish different aromas. But have you ever stopped to appreciate the incredible design and purpose behind our ability to smell?
In the Islamic faith, we believe that everything we possess is a gift from Allah (God). Our bodies, including our nose, are a product of divine creation. Our noses serve a vital purpose beyond just enabling us to enjoy pleasant scents – they remind us of Allah's grandeur and greatness.
The Function of Our Sense of Smell
Our sense of smell is truly remarkable and plays a crucial role in our daily lives. It allows us to detect potential dangers in our environment, such as spoiled food or harmful gases. It enhances the flavor of the food we eat and helps us to enjoy the beauty of flowers and nature through their fragrances. Our sense of smell also has a profound impact on our emotions and memories, as certain scents can trigger vivid recollections of past events.

With each breath we take, our noses guide us through the world, helping us make sense of our surroundings and bringing us closer to Allah's creation. It is through our sense of smell that we can appreciate the intricate and harmonious scents crafted by the Creator.
The Purpose Behind Our Sense of Smell
Many verses in the Quran highlight the significance of our senses, including our sense of smell. One verse beautifully explains, "Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding - those who remember Allah standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying), 'Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose. Glory be to You! Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire.'" (Quran 3:190-191)
Through this verse, we are reminded that everything in the universe, including our sense of smell, has a purpose and significance. Our ability to smell the fragrances of the world around us serves as a form of worship and a means to deepen our connection with Allah.
Recognizing the Fragrances of Allah's Creation
When we stop and take a moment to appreciate the scents around us, we can sense the presence of Allah. The fragrance of a blooming flower, the soothing aroma of rain, or the refreshing scent of a morning breeze are all reminders of Allah's majesty and His beautiful creations. They invite us to reflect on the intricate and awe-inspiring balance of nature and make us appreciate the world that Allah has created for us.
In the Quran, Allah says, "And We send the winds fertilizing, then cause water to descend from the sky, and We give it to you to drink. And it is not you who are the owners of its stores." (Quran 15:22)
This verse highlights the interconnectedness of various elements in creation, including the fragrances that touch our senses. The process of pollination and the rain that nurtures plant life are connected to the beautiful aromas that surround us. Our sense of smell allows us to witness and appreciate this harmony.
Using Our Sense of Smell to Connect with Allah
Our ability to smell is a divine gift that should not be taken for granted. It is through our noses that we inhale the scents that remind us of Allah's blessings and His magnificent creation. We should make it a habit to consciously acknowledge and express gratitude for this ability.
By recognizing the role of our sense of smell in our devotion to Allah, we can deepen our spirituality. We can engage in the simple act of smelling fragrant flowers, perfumes, or even freshly baked bread with the intention of connecting with our Creator. This mindfulness can turn an ordinary experience into a moment of profound appreciation and gratitude towards Allah.
The Nose: A Reminder of Allah's Mercy
Allah's love and mercy are apparent in every aspect of creation, including the design and purpose behind our sense of smell. Our noses are a testimony to Allah's generosity and His infinite wisdom. They remind us that Allah, as the ultimate Creator, has equipped us with the ability to appreciate His creation through our senses.
When we think about our noses, let us remember that they are not just ordinary organs, but rather, they are mechanisms carefully designed by Allah. Our sense of smell allows us to experience the beauty and goodness that surrounds us, ultimately leading us to a deeper understanding and connection with Allah, the Maker of all things.

A wonderful account of the sense of smell given to us by the creator, which can be explored endlessly with young children through everyday smells and fragrances, encouraging us to give thanks to God.
