Two Rivers

The Two Rivers

Below Shown Photos are of the two rivers flowing in southern part near Cape Town , South Africa.
These rivers flow together and their nature came to be known at the start of the 20th century, where as Allah mentioned the nature of these
two rivers in the Qur'aan around 1400 years ago.
These two rivers flow together and finally settle down in the Ocean, the taste of one river is extremely sweet,where as the taste of the other river is bitter and they never mix.
There is nothing visible to the human eye in between these rivers which stops them from mixing together but its is the will & order of Allah.

He has made the two seas to flow freely (so that) they meet together
Between them is a barrier which they cannot pass.
Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that ye deny?
[Surah Ar-Rahman 19:21]

There is also a colour difference.

The one on the right is more dark and vibrant, whereas the river on the left is muggy and murky.

Wow.

There's also a place in north Egypt called Ra's al-Bahr where the Nile meets the sea - apparently it has a big board near the point where they meet with the ayah from ar-Rahman written. A teacher of mine was saying that whenever she goes there, she just sees people fall into sajdah and cry because it's so overwhelming.
