If he does not stop, We will grab him by the forelock, a lying, sinful forelock.” (Quran, 96:15-16) The expression the lying, sinful forelock in the above verse is most interesting. Research carried out in recent years has revealed that the prefrontal area, which is responsible for the management of particular functions of the brain, lies in the frontal part of the skull. If we look inside to the brain at the front of the head, we will find the frontal area of the cerebrum. A book entitled Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology, which includes the results of the latest research on the functions of this area, says: The motivation and the foresight to plan and initiate movements occur in the anterior portion of the frontal lobes, the prefrontal area. This is a region of association cortex…[1] The book also says: In relation to its involvement in motivation, the prefrontal area is also thought to be the functional center for aggression…[2] So, this area of the cerebrum is responsible for planning, motivation, and initiating good and sinful behaviour, and is responsible for telling lies and the truth. The Qur’an draws our attention to this wonder of God’s creation. Surely such creation could not have been by chance? [1] Rod R. Seeley, Trent D.
