Scientists have explained that the amount of sweet water stored beneath the surface of the Earth is far greater than the amount of water we see in lakes, rivers and seas. Although this is a relatively recent discovery, it is a fact that had already been acknowledged in the Qur’an: {And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores.} [Al-Hijr, 15:22]. Indeed, it has been proven that winds are one of the factors that ‘provoke’ the existence of clouds, and that rain water, despite the complicated process, manages to be stored in the depths of the Earth!
