No equation is available that can provide for a Creator for this universe. This gap is a power place for the hypotheses called Evolution. This would be the first time that this gap is addressed. Al-Fatiha, Chapter 1 in the Quran provides an equation filling this gap once and for all. In its own right, al-Fatiha veils huge programming and symmetry works within. The universe and all its inhabitants living or inert are expressed in symmetric effulgence while they all live and thrive in hidden programming legacy assigned in every unseen fabric of nature. Al-Fatiha is created exactly in the same single line. Chapter 1 in the Quran guides us to see a nexus between the programming and symmetry in the creation and the programming and symmetry in al-Fatiha as a bridge to reach the truth that both have a common source of origin. Al-Fatiha edifies humans to search for a huge Mathematical Creator out there and inhume the fabrications of evolution for good as a universe that is programmed from a-z, in that, the so-called undirected random evolution is a randomly gross notion of random individuals and is unable to compete with the constraints of mathematics and survive as the fittest.
