THE IDENTITY IN THE FINGERPRINT While it is stated in the Quran that it is easy for God to bring man back to life after death, peoples fingerprints are particularly emphasized: ”Yes, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers.„ (The Quran, 75:3-4) The emphasis on fingerprints has a very special meaning. This is because everyones fingerprint is unique to himself. Every person who is alive or who has ever lived in this world has a set of unique fingerprints. That is why fingerprints are accepted as a very important proof of identity, exclusive to their owner, and are used for this purpose around the world. But what is important is that this feature of fingerprints was only discovered in the late 19th century. Before then, people regarded fingerprints as ordinary curves without any specific importance or meaning. However in the Quran, God points to the fingertips, which did not attract anyones attention at that time, and calls our attention to their importance–an importance that was only finally understood in our day.
