Have you ever noticed similarities between the movement of stars, specks of dust and flocks of birds? Do you pause to consider how mosaics in mosques are similar to honeycombs built by bees?
If you’re paying close attention, you will notice a pattern that seems to govern natural phenomena and beautiful works of art.
For centuries, ancient thinkers have called it the Golden Ratio or the Divine Proportion.
But why is this irrational sequence of numbers so prevalent in our universe? And can this ‘cosmic constant’ predict our behavior?
In this episode, adapted from the award-winning Arabic series Dahaleez, Egyptian-born actor Amr Waked journeys from the galactic to the atomic to try to answer one of the oldest, and most persistent, philosophical questions.

Eid mubarak all! 🎉
I remember in the last 2 Seasons of The CW’s The 100 The Golden Ratio was referenced a few times through a temperoal anomoly.
That’s a great show for the themes it covers, and how they implement them organically and with purpose, not gratuitously like so many shows today.
Good question. The answer is no.
Would love if decoded would do the archeology on giant skulls found across the globr and not talked more about
Why Files (Chan)…. u welcome 🎉
Don’t appreciate the over production, and voice actor doesn’t need to be so deep and mysterious, it’s a math equation relax.
When the war in Iraq was waging on,it was only Al Jazeera that provided clear unbiased news that even Donald RumField attacked them
Keep on unbiased news Al Jazeera
When you see what the Golden Ratio of our Earth is, then you will realise that there is no coincidence. Our Creator is so great!
There is no god.
@DRKrust492you *wish* there was no Allah/God Almighty!
The golden ratio between Earth’s and Venus’s orbits
Moronic documentary – talks about Golden Ratio. Doesn’t explain it right away. 😂 Idiots!
I stay corrected: It doesn’t explain it at all! 😂 Just another intellectual-wanna-be bullshit!
I like these episodes, very philosophical too
A God who can’t compile a book in serial numbers used a series to make universe.
if you have 1% of intellect left in you then read my comment. Its just above yours. You can cross-check that.
And if its filled with dung then continue with your blue gods
what do you mean; “a book in serial numbers”?
Golden ratio is explicitly pointed out in Quran too .
The Golden Ratio or divine ratio is an infinite, non-repeating decimal that cannot be expressed as a fraction . It is irrational and is equal to about 1.618
Now see what Quran 16:18 says :
“If you tried to count Allah’s blessings, you would never be able to number them. Allah is ever forgiving and most merciful.”
Did you notice something, Golden ratio which is an “infinite” irrational number that is approximately equal to 1.618
And the exact 16 :18 verse of Quran talks about the “infinite” nature of Allah’s blessings.
Is it a coincidence, or some kind of hint that Allah (swt) has given us about golden ratio.
Allah knows best .
well……… i woudltn go that far………………………….
👍🏻👆🤲
@Jarrod Yuki
it obviously isn’t going that far
a layman can understand it
you have to just look for the verse with 1618 and it exactly talks about infinite nature of Allah’s blessings
” that cannot be expressed as a fraction” ?….incorrect
@Steven M dude just go and gain some knowledge about “irrational number”
this kind of presentation makes even the golden ratio very boring, when you want to show something incredible unbelievebal: show how water turns into ice or how a flower greats the sun in the morning (this is a statement of a great person, I just can get his name). Geometry, nature … no need to make it ‘sacred’. Sacred is just suggesting a lot when the it is already so incredible. It is like people talking about ‘natural food’, when you ask them what they mean they will answer it is not chemical…. yep.. they just have no clue about what they are talking about..
Why do we always return to the comfort of mysticism? This piece is a joke. All religions are a lie you tell yourself to push away the vast darkness.
loved this production
The first to define in writing the concept of the golden ratio was the unsurpassed ancient Greek mathematician Euclid (the same one who first arranged Mathematical knowledge in terms of science)!
GREEK mathematics get from the Egyptian ancient black people
Here we go….that didn’t take long🙄 All heil the great black bs! 😝
nature has built it self upon sacred geometry.
this is basic for crystalisation.
i can say the nidus for a structure is actually the shape of the geometrical pattern that it has under gone. most elements and compounds have this specific natural shape no matter where they are found on mars or in earth. ? what is a golden ratio ? is it the ratio for cube, cuboid structures ?
As Allah said in Quran, sooner we show them signs in themselves they will speak up and admit
always quote Allah ﷻ in the Quran accurately and with the reference!
The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it.
Not a single mathematician or physicist was consulted for this video promotion of vague personal beliefs. Mathematics can be used to understand the universe so please consult proper scholars for it, even if those scholars happen to be atheist, which they often will be.
Cosmic Indifference is the only reality, trying to tie human emotions or spirituality to the universe is self delusion 🙄
Excellent video with a very important, timeless, fundamental topic.
Another great documentary! Well done. Love this series.
Lord Jesus Christ is our TRUTH against this satanic world! REPENT, believe in the Gospel, Be Born Again
which gospel?
My people it all comes from black people ancestors Egyptian black originals ❤
Then how come blacks are on the bottom and whites on top…gtfoh with your black supremacist bs🙄
0.618!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1.618………………………………..
(1 + Square root of√5)/2
use the quadtractic forjula.
a=1 b=-1 c=-1 quadratic formula.
Science is just Gods way of telling us why we are here but we destroy so easily

this is really awsm… there is a God. The one and only.

The only true reality is Cosmic Indifference 🙄
If you do what people have always been doing you can’t go wrong
Really? People have been killing each other for thousands of years. The best thing is to just keep doing that?
This ruins Al Jazeera’s reputation. Utter Nonsense.
Love this program 👍
I am planning to have a thesis related to the golden ratio. This adds to my inspiration and motivation to continue doing so.
This video was less about the mathematics of the golden ratio and more an advertisement for the dogmas of religion ….🙄
Mr Amr Waked, I praise you for your wisdom in bringing the essence of wisdom to investigative journalism. This is seldom seen in an era where media now wishes to inundate us with ‘knowledge’ of so much corruption and suffering I can’t even remember it all.
that said, your investigative documentary was very refreshing and inspiring.
I also do research in the areas in which you touched on in this remarkable piece, namely – philosophy, theology and psychology.
who knew you were such a philosopher!
now regarding your attempt to connect the ‘golden ratio’ to ‘human behavior’ you may have to open up the lens in which you are viewing the topic with some more in order to find a more wholesome perspective
point being, your fixation on the golden ratio and human behavior appear too stringent. Rather, if you were to regard ‘human consciousness’ as opposed to just ‘human behavior’ you may arrive at where you initially intended to go since human consciousness constitutes human behavior.
also, human consciousness provides more connect-ability for mathematical relations more so than just ‘human behavior’
most importantly, the golden ratio is only a fraction of the representation of universal law and unity found in the universe.
For more in-depth discovery you should regard mathematics as a whole and how many aspects of not just being human but being itself ( a product of existence itself ) also constitute various ‘mathematical’ relations. this inevitably connects to human consciousness because human consciousness is undeniably a product of existence itself – something we can refer to as the ‘original equation’ – the mathematical laws and principles within existence itself and thus human consciousness/behavior.
Hope to hear Back from you.
Shalom.
Absolutely NO
No it can’t. The Bible explains the universe. The author is God.
the bibles have been corrupted and are full of contradictions about God and everything!
Well said ❤
Islam intellectualism. None of this is any of our business. If it was, the Bible would state it. The Quran is nothing but forbidden knowledge from a false prophet possessed by a devil. Even Muhammad admits this was likely the case until his spirit guide convinced him otherwise. Using science to try to understand or explain God is like using a ruler to count each grain of sand.
the bible is corrupt and full of contradictions, including numerical contradictions and mistakes. whereas the Glorious Quran is the Last and Final preserved Revelation/Testament of Allah/God Almighty!
@Muslim Response There are zero contradictions in the Bible. One Muslim gave me a list of 200 alleged contrdictions all were false and I showed him how. The Quran is a doctrine of devils and no allah is NOT God. allah is either Baal or Satan worship. That book has zero truth in it and is confirmed by one demon possessed prophet. The Bible is confirmed by a multitude of prophets and histroy and the observable world. Also God is not a “WE”.
Plurality when referring to one person is demonic. God is a singular God not a we. The Bible talks about this. Multiple devils are called legion. God is not a legion. I pray you see the truth one day.
Mathematician Zaha Hadid was a pioneer in architectural design. We miss her.
you forget time and space 🙂 you emotional being if you like it or not everything you are is an reaction of something of the past that was already governed. that is your answer sir 😏
The Golden Ratio is pleasing to the eyes of humans. If there are aliens, it might not be to them. Therefore, I doubt it has grand, universe explaining potential.
Welcome back Decoded it its such a great show
Worst vocalisastion and unrelated relationship with Islam? 😂
If you tried to count Allah’s blessings, you would never be able to number them! Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. *(Quran 16.18)*
Awesome mini documentary, love the “Decoded” series, a very well made, presented, edited, written & displayed show on always interesting topics.
Look forward to the next one =)
Mekkah is the golden ratio of the earth. Allahu Akbar!
Thank you so much for this.
Beautifully done .🙏❤️🌏🕊🎶
Exquisite Order.
The golden ratio is related to the pentagram which is the shape that the planet Venus traces in the earth sky due to the Fibonacci ratio of their orbits. That’s why this planet was named after the goddess of beauty.
