Is bird flight a miracle?

Is bird flight a miracle?

16:79 Do they not see the birds controlled in the midst of the sky? None holds them except Allah. Indeed, in that are Signs for a people who believe.

(According to Verse 16:79, there are Signs in holding birds in the sky. The disbelievers do not see the Sign in it because bird flight is a common event, but bird flight is as surprising as other “miracles” or events that may be uncommon, because the creation itself is a miracle. God created everything while everything was nothing before. So whether the event is common or uncommon, all events are “impossible”, unless God wills / allows it to happen. God sustains/upholds the whole creation, because God is the Sustainer of existence (2:255); and “Allah upholds the heavens and the earth, lest they cease” (35:41))(For example, according to Verse 30:46, God sends the winds; scientists say that the wind is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure; then what causes the pressure differences? According to scientist, the sun heats different parts of the earth differently, causing pressure differences; their conclusion is that the sun is the driving force for “most” winds; but, what causes / created the sun? And so on; finally they won’t be able to answer what created or caused the universe, and the Big Bang; which implies that they cannot answer what moves the winds. Verse 41:37 says “Do not prostrate to the sun and nor to the moon, but prostrate to Allah , Who created them, if it should be Him alone that you worship”; and Verse 6:59 says, “not a leaf falls but He knows it. And there is not a grain in the darkness of the earth and not (anything) moist or dry but is in a Clear Record”)(The disbelievers find that these events happen in a disordered or chaotic manner, while it happens within an order (universe), which is a fact. God created everything, while “time”, “chaos” or “nature” are unable to create)(Allah knows best)

19:9 He said, "Thus, your Lord said, 'It is easy for Me, and certainly I have created you before, while you were nothing.'"

(Birds and planet earth were nothing before. Birds’ physical features to enable them to fly, and natural laws involved, were created/chosen, out of nothing. And they were chosen to be that way. And they are impossible, without a Creator. So, God holds them, lest they could not fly)(Nature and natural laws are not doing it on its own, or they are doing nothing, because the way flying works was invented out of nothing. So, bird flight is a miracle, because it is impossible, unless God makes it happen)(Allah knows best)

35:41 Indeed, Allah upholds the heavens and the earth, lest they cease. And if they should cease, no one can uphold them after Him. Indeed, He is Most Forbearing, Oft-Forgiving.

28:68 And your Lord creates what He wills and chooses. They do not have the choice. Glory be to Allah and High is He above what they associate.

7:58 And the pure land – its vegetation comes forth by the permission of its Lord, but that which is bad - does not come forth except with difficulty. Thus We explain the Signs for a people who are grateful.

30:46 And among His Signs is that He sends the winds as bearers of glad tidings and to let you taste His Mercy, and that the ships may sail at His Command, and that you may seek of His Bounty, and that you may be grateful.

8:17 And you did not kill them, but Allah killed them. And you threw not when you threw, but Allah threw and that He may test the believers with a good trial from Him. Indeed, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

53:43 And that He makes (one) laugh and makes (one) weep.

56:63 And do you see what you sow? 56:64 Is it you who cause it to grow or are We the grower?

52:37 Or are the treasures of your Lord with them, or are they the controllers?

16:11 With it He causes to grow for you the crops, and the olives, and the date-palms, and the grapes and every kind of fruits. Indeed, in that is surely a sign for a people who reflect.

37:96 While Allah created you and that which you do?"

(According to the context (37:95), God created mankind, and that which mankind do is also His creation (e.g. that which you carve), so the Verse does not mean that God made you an idol in the creation, but the point is that people wrongly “took His creation” to carve it (e.g. a stone), but the carved thing is still creation, not a deity)(Allah knows best)

2:255 Allah - there is no God except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and the guarding of both of them does not tire Him. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.

6:59 And with Him are the keys of the unseen, none knows them except Him. And He knows what is on the land and in the sea. And not a leaf falls but He knows it. And there is not a grain in the darkness of the earth and not (anything) moist or dry but is in a Clear Record.

57:22 No disaster strikes on the earth or within yourselves, but is in a Register before We bring it into existence. Indeed, that is easy for Allah. 57:23 So that you may not grieve over what has escaped you, nor exult at what He has given you. And Allah does not love any self-deluded boaster,

45:4 And in your creation and what He disperses of the moving creatures are Signs for a people who are certain.

3:49 And a Messenger to the Children of Israel, "Indeed, I have come to you with a sign from your Lord - that I design for you from clay like the form of the bird, then I breath into it and it becomes a bird by the permission of Allah. And I cure the blind, and the leper, and I give life to the dead by the permission of Allah. And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed, in that is surely a sign for you, if you are believers.

55:33 O assembly of jinn and men, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You cannot pass except by authority.

(Likewise bird flight is by the permission of God)(Allah knows best)

42:32 And among His Signs are ships in the sea, like mountains. 42:33 If He wills, He can cause the wind to become still, then they would remain motionless on its back. Indeed, in that surely are Signs for everyone patient and grateful. 42:34 Or He could destroy them for what they have earned; but He pardons much. 42:35 And those who dispute concerning Our Signs may know that there is no place of refuge for them.

10:65 And let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, all honor to Allah. He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.

67:19 Do they not see [to] the birds above them, spreading (their wings) and folding (them)? Not/(none) holds them (up) except the Most Gracious. Indeed, He (is) All-Seer of everything.
