--------------------
The creation of Allah Taãla is very vast and beyond our comprehension. In
every time and era scientists have made strange discoveries of the creation
of Allah and they will continue to do so. However, the research of the
scientists will be exhausted yet they will never be able to conquer the
reality of the creations of Allah, nor will they be able to discover even a
fraction of the entire creation.

However, the creation of Allah is a manifestation of the Power of Allah.
Allah invites us to ponder upon His creation and understand His Power. With
regard to aliens and flying objects and dinasours, since the reality of
these creations are not known, it is not possible to comment upon them. For
our belief, if there is reality in these creations, it should be seen as
another manifestation of Allah's Power.

And Allah Taãla Knows Best.

Matters of belief are established through two ways:

(1) That which is rationally necessary in of itself (such as the existence, absoluteness, and transcendence of God--the Creator).

(2) That which is in itself possible, but is established by the transmitted texts of the Qur'an and Sunna (such as the sending of Prophets, and matters of the Next Life).

Whether dinosaurs existed or not is not a matter of belief, as it is neither in itself rationally necessary nor in itself established by the primary texts. Rather, it is a matter of rational possibility which we turn to science to consider whether established or not.

And Allah alone gives success.
