The Quran is amazing!

I am sure we all know that the pattern lines at the tip of our fingers are unique to everyone of us. Every pattern line is different, even for identical twins. That's why our thumbprint has been used as an identification tool, very effectively. This unique feature was discovered in 1856 by an Englishman, Genn Ginsen. That makes it 152 yrs ago.
But do you know that the Quran has mentioned this more than 1400 years ago? This is what it says:

3. Does the human being think that We cannot assemble his bones?
4. Surely, We are able to reconstruct even his fingertips
Al Qiayamah (75)

Off course, 1400 years ago or until 152 years ago, no one understood the significant of this sentence or why fingertips were even mentioned! Until the discovery!

Amazing! Isn't it?
