Human Biological clock works

🤔 How it works ……..

How Human Biological clock works

It is an innate mechanism that controls the physiological activities of an organism which change on a daily, seasonal, yearly, or other regular cycle.

“ Biological clock ” is located in two tiny structures called the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCNs), located in the left and the right hypothalamus and bordering on the third ventricle. The neurons of these two nuclei are among the smallest in the brain.

Sleep-wake and other daily patterns are part of our circadian rhythms, (circum means “around” and dies, “day”) which are governed by the body’s internal or biological clock.
The body’s master clock, or SCN, controls the production of melatonin, a hormone that makes you sleepy.

The pineal gland, conarium, or epiphysis cerebri, is a small endocrine gland in the brain of most vertebrates. The pineal gland produces melatonin. From the optic nerve of the eye, light travels to the SCN, signaling the internal clock that it is time to be awake.

Menopause, or the cessation of menstrual periods, generally occurs in the 40s and 50s and marks the cessation of fertility, although age-related infertility can occur before then. The relationship between age and female fertility is sometimes referred to as a woman’s “biological clock.”

😳Why❓❓❓

Eid al-Adha (Arabic: عيد الأضحى‎, ) also called Eid Qurban (Persian: عيد قربان‎) or Bakra-Eid , is a Islamic festival celebrated worldwide each year.

It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismael as an act of obedience to God’s command.
Abraham was willing to sacrifice what is dear to him, his son Ismael was very dear to him and decided to sacrifice him. Ismael also willing to his father idea. Angel Jibreel (Gabriel) called Abraham “O’ Abraham, you have fulfilled the revelations.” and a lamb from heaven was offered by Angel Gabriel to prophet Abraham to slaughter instead of Ishmael.

But, before Ibrahim could sacrifice his son, God provided a lamb to sacrifice instead. In commemoration of this intervention, an animal, usually a sheep, is sacrificed ritually and divided into three parts. One share is given to the poor and needy, another is kept for home, and the third is given to relatives.

Islam regards Abraham as a link in the chain of prophets that begins with Adam and culminates in Muhammad.
Ibrāhīm is mentioned in 35 chapters of the Quran, more often than any other biblical personage apart from Moses.
He is called both a hanif (monotheist) and muslim (one who submits), and Muslims regard him as a prophet and patriarch, the archetype of the perfect Muslim, and the revered reformer of the Kaaba in Mecca.

Islamic traditions consider Ibrāhīm (Abraham) the first Pioneer of Islam (which is also called millat Ibrahim, the “religion of Abraham”), and that his purpose and mission throughout his life was to proclaim the Oneness of God.

In Islam, Abraham holds an exalted position among the major prophets and he is referred to as “Ibrahim Khalilullah”, meaning “Abraham the Beloved of Allah”.
