Iron is a Divine Gift to Humankind
We have sent our Messengers with clear proofs, and sent down with them the Book and Balance, that mankind may observe justice; And We sent down iron, in which is (material for) mighty power, as well as many benefits for mankind, that Allah may test who it is that will help, unseen, Him and His Messengers, for Allah is full of strength, Exalted in Might. (The Holy Qur'an, 57:25) |

The Holy Qur'an tells us that the iron was sent down to earth. Scientists have, only recently, come to discover the relevant facts about the formation of iron. Geologists believe that the entire energy of our solar system is not sufficient to produce even one atom of iron. Moreover, they state that four times as much energy as that of our solar system would be required to make one atom of iron on the surface of the earth. The geologists thus conclude that iron is an extraterrestrial material that was sent down to earth from some other planet. |

"The new-found abundance of metal has forced archeologists to reevaluate their views of ancient Arctic culture. Most of the reassessment reflects the effort to answer one simple question: How did Arctic people get the metal?
Sources of copper and iron are exceptionally rare in the Arctic. Copper seems to have come from two locations. Most of the iron came from Cape York, Greenland, where a large, almost pure iron meteorite broke into fragments while descending through the atmosphere thousands of years ago. "
