Cosmologists say that people previously believed that the universe was small and limited. It has been found recently, however, that the universe is much more enormous than we believe. Whenever researchers think that they have reached the edge of the universe, they discover new stars that make them believe that the universe is more and more enormous in such an infinite manner; All glory to Allah, the holy Qur'an reveals such a cosmic fact; Allah says:

“Assuredly the creation

Of the heavens

And the earth

Is a greater (matter)

Than the creation of men:

Yet most men understand not.” Ghafer: 57

http://www.kaheel7.com/eng/images/st...10%2812%29.jpg


Cosmologists believe that the universe is expanding dramatically and it would continue expanding thus creating too huge gaps and spaces. Such gaps and spaces result in cosmic imbalances and eventually lead to cosmic collapse. This fact has been revealed by the holy Qur’an for it has pointed out that the sky would be cleft asunder i.e. crack, and would have spaces and gaps; Allah, the Exalted says:

"When the Sky

Is cleft asunder;” Infitar or The Cleaving Asunder: 1


The holy Qur’an affirms that this universe wouldn’t last forever, it would rather crack and collapse. Cosmologists also confirm such a cosmic fact, but the question that needs be answered is who might have informed Prophet Mohammad, PBUH, of it???

Within the coming few years, it will be possible to construct space 'hotels" and anyone would be able to spend, for instance, a week or more in the space. Just years ago, such residence was no more than a fantasy. Today, it has become a fact; man has managed to fly in spacecrafts and head for the sky. It’s amazing; however, that the Holy Qur’an points out that people would travel using such spacecrafts and other means of transportation. Allah, the Exalted says:

“So I do call

To witness the ruddy glow

Of Sunset;

The Night and its Homing;

And the Moon

In her Fulness:

Ye shall surely travel

From stage to stage” Inshiqaq or the Rending Asunder: 19 (ibid)

Isn't this a miracle that acknowledges the truthfulness of the Holy Qur'an?

We can see in this picture which is released by U.S. space agency NASA a number of bright stars. These stars illuminate the surrounding cosmic smoke. Scientists say these stars work as "spotlights" or Flashlights that reveal the path for us and make us see dense clouds of smoke in the cosmos. If it was not for these spotlights, we would not be able to know a lot about the secrets of the universe. Allah, the Almighty, ahead of all Western scholars and scientists alluded to these spotlights with the name (lamps). Allah stated in Glorious Quran FUSSILAT (EXPLAINED IN DETAIL) 41:12, ‘And We adorned the lower heaven with lights, and (provided it) with guard. Such is the Decree of (Him) the Exalted in Might, Full of Knowledge.’ Scientists confirm that the best name for such distant stars is Flashlights (i.e, lamps) and this name was used in the Qur'an fourteen centuries ago, a testimony to the miracle of this great book!

Tests that were performed on meteorites that had fell on earth proved by scientists that these meteorites were loaded with organic materials that are the basis of life. Three hundreds kilograms of these substances fall on earth daily. Therefore, scientists assert that life is scattered in every part of the universe. The Glorious Quran referred to this fact 14 centuries ago. Allah stated in the Glorious Quran Al-Shura [Consultation] 42:29, ‘And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the living creatures that He has scattered through them: and He has power to gather them together when He wills.’ This verse is one of the signs of scientific miracles, of the Glorious Quran where we see a clear reference to the existence of life that Allah, the Almighty scattered in heavens and earth. Scientists in the twenty first century have found strong proofs on the possible existence of primitive life evenly distributed in this vast universe. This is what had been referred to in the previous verse fourteen centuries ago. Glory be to Allah!

In a scientific research for the U.S. space agency NASA scientists confirmed that the universe will contract and return to its original shape; one-mass. It is so amazing that Allah pointed to this issue in Glorious Quran. Allah stated in Glorious Quran AlAnbiya [The Prophets] 21:104, ‘The Day that We roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books (completed),- even as We produced the first creation, so shall We produce a new one: a promise We have undertaken: truly shall We fulfill it.’ We pose a question here to everyone who doubts the Glorious Quran and where did Mohammad SAAW brought such accurate information that fully agrees with modern science? This, for sure, indicates that the Glorious Quran are the words of Allah, the Almighty.

http://www.kaheel7.com/eng/images/stories/8%283%29.jpg


When scientists found that the sun moves at very high speeds, they also found that these movements will not continue on forever, but rather that the sun is moving towards a specific point near the constellation Hercules called the Solar Apex, which is also known as the Apex of the Sun’s Way. The speed of our sun’s movement towards this Solar Apex is approximately 20 kilometres per second, or 12 miles per second! Magnificently, the Holy Qur’an portrays this amazing fact about the sun, in a verse which emphasises both the sun’s speed and the fact that it is heading towards a definite point: {And the sun runneth on unto a resting place for him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.} [Yaasin, 36:38]. Such an immaculate account of our closest star only begs the question: Who, other than God Almighty, could have manufactured such a perfect statement of truth 14 centuries ago?

Scientists have discovered that the celestial bodies in this universe all move within an intended path or orbit. That is, the sun rotates along its own orbit, and so do the Earth, moon, stars and planets: all travel along a carefully calculated and precise orbit. Even if we take this observation down to atomic level, we find that electrons travel in a defined orbit around the atom’s nucleus, in a manner which resembles the orbital movements found in the solar system! Interestingly, the Qur’an eloquently describes this perfect universal harmony: {Each swims along in (its own) orbit (according to Law).} [Yaasin, 36:40].

http://www.kaheel7.com/eng/images/stories/6%286%29.jpg


Scientists have identified that the sun has reached roughly half of its life (about 4.6 billion years), that it is currently experiencing a significant level of glow (despite the fact that it is the dimmest it has been for about 100 years ), and that it will in fact completely dim and ‘die’ after about 5 billion years. The Qur’an has in fact hinted to this: {And placed (therein) a dazzling lamp (i.e. the sun)?} [Al-Naba’, 78:13]. The Arabic word used in this verse for ‘dazzling’ or ‘shining’ suggests that the sun is in a current state of glow. In other words, there are indeed dimmed or ‘dead’ stars, but the sun is not one of these stars, and this is a miraculous sign in that no human knew of any such attributes to the sun during the time the Holy Qur’an was revealed!

When a star expands until it explodes, it eventually grows smaller in size and dies out into what is known in astronomy as a “white dwarf”, and the temperature of this explosion exceeds 400,000°C. Similarly, scientists have confirmed that our sun will one day meet a similar fate. This explosion of the sun will cause it to gradually shrink in size, until it turns into a small, completely dimmed sun. Amazingly, the end of our sun has been referred to in the Holy Qur’an, when God says: {When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up;} [Al-Takwir, 81:1]. This fact of astronomy was completely unheard of during the time the Qur’an was revealed, when people in fact believed that the universe would continue in existence forever. If anything, this is but one of the countless miraculous signs of the Holy Qur’an with which science completely concurs!

This photo of a floating galaxy in the universe, every point in the photo represents a star and all of these stars are moving around the center of the galaxy in a wonderful system. This galaxy and millions of galaxies are moving around a center and the real number of these galaxies is unknown. Scientists in all fields of science say that Everything in this universe is moving at the same direction from left to right (Anti clock wise) such as electrons around nucleus, planets around sun, stars around galaxy.


Allah Almighty says about that ( It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day. They all float, each in an orbit.) (Sûrat Yâ-Sîn- verse 40(.

Recent scientists are asking about the future of our universe, is there an end or it is endless? They use their machines and technology but they got no answer for their question. But Allah Almighty told and taught us that He is the creator of everything so that He started the creation and He Almighty alone will end that creation. He Almighty says: (And (remember) the Day when We shall roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books, as We began the first creation, We shall repeat it, (it is) a promise binding upon Us. Truly, we shall do it.){Sûrat Al-Anbiyâ- The Prophets-verse 104}

http://kaheel7.com/ar/images/stories/123412334124.jpg


Astronomers say that universe is not in a spherical shape but it looks as a flat disc therefore there are different zones in our universe and the diameter of each zone differs from zone to zone. Also scientists say that our galaxy has different zones as it looks like a giant disc, its greatest diameter is about one hundred thousand light years and its smallest diameter is about thirty thousand light years.


The question is, can human penetrate zones of universe by recent technology? If human decided to do that we need to fly in light speed then it needs ten thousand million years to reach the far galaxies, here Allah Almighty says about that: (O assembly of jinns and men! If you have power to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass (them)! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority (from Allah)){ Sûrat Ar-Rahmân - The Most Gracious -verse33}.

Also, they say that emitted waves by the Piercing star can penetrate anything, even our bodies as these waves penetrate us every moment but we don't feel.


Allah Almighty says about these stars: (By the heaven, and At-Târiq . And what will make you to know what At-Târiq is? (It is) the star of piercing brightness;)[At-Târiq verse 1-3].


The Arabic meaning of the word” At-Târiq” is the knocker, so that when scientists hear the emitted sound they realized that it is like a hammer.

Allah Almighty says about that smoke (Then He (Allah Almighty) Istawa (rose over) towards the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth: "Come both of you willingly or unwillingly." They both said: "We come, willingly."){Sûrat Fussilat - They are Explained in detail -verse11} and in another verse He Almighty says: (Then wait you for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke){ Sûrat Ad-Dukhân –the Smoke -verse10}

Scientists say that the diameter of the ring around the explosion is 20000 light years. The one light year is about 9.5 million million kilometers. Astronomers say that the real position of the star is unknown and needs very complicated calculations. Allah Almighty swears by the position of these stars by saying: (So I swear by Mawaqi (setting or the mansions) of the stars * and verily, that is indeed a great oath, if you but know.){Sûrat Al-Wâqi‘ah- The Event-verse 75-76}.

He withholds the heaven from falling on the earth except by His Leave. Verily, Allah is, for mankind, full of Kindness, Most Merciful.){Sûrat Al-Hajj- The Pilgrimage-verse65}


Muslim scholars explain that heaven is anything above us so that atmosphere is included in the heaven and is subjected by all rules that ******* the heaven.


Hence Allah Almighty preserved earth not to be destroyed if atmosphere is collapsed on it. Do we thank Allah for that great grace?

The appointed Term of the Sun


http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/solar_apex1.JPG Allah Almighty told us in His Holy Qur'an fourteen centuries ago about some scientific facts, but the scientists just discovered these facts in the twenty one century …




Figures about the sun

The Sun is the most prominent feature in our solar system. It is the largest ****** and contains approximately 98% of the total solar system mass. One hundred and nine Earths would be required to fit across the Sun's disk, and its interior could hold over 1.3 million Earths. The Sun's outer visible layer is called the photosphere and has a temperature of 6,000°C (11,000°F).

Recent scientists confirm that solar energy is created deep within the core of the Sun. It is here that the temperature (15,000,000° C; 27,000,000° F) and pressure (340 billion times Earth's air pressure at sea level) is so intense that nuclear reactions take place. They assure thatenergy generated in the Sun's core takes a million years to reach its surface. Every second 700 million tons of hydrogen are converted into helium ashes. In the process 5 million tons of pure energy is released; therefore, as time goes on the Sun is becoming lighter.

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/sun_1.JPG


The Sun appears to have been active for 4.6 billion years and has enough fuel to go on for another five billion years or so. Scientists are expecting after a billion years as a red giant, it will suddenly collapse into a white dwarf.

The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is approximately 149.6 million kilometers. At this average distance, light travels from the Sun to Earth in about 8 minutes and 19 seconds. The energy ofthis sunlight supports almost all life on Earth by photosynthesis, and drives Earth's climate and weather. The enormous effect of the Sun on the Earth has been recognized since prehistoric times.

http://kaheel7.com/eng/images/stories/324523.gif


Some main statistics about the sun


What is the appointed Term of the Sun?

The astronomers started to study the movement of the sun and they discovered that the sun moves in a very complicated route and that route is not easy as thought.The scientists discovered that the sun moves toward an appointed term in spite of its complicated move and when it reaches its destination, it repeats again the movement. Those scientists say the following sentence about the appointed term of the sun:The solar apex is the direction toward which the Sun and the solar system are moving.

The Qur'an and the sun

Allah Almighty told us about this scientific fact fourteen centuries ago as He says:"And the sun runs on its fixed course for a term (appointed). That is the Decree of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing."(Sûrat Yâ-Sîn-verse38)

The scientists call it the solar apex and Allah Almighty says(the appointed term)

also, there is another miracle as He Almighty says "the sun runs" not moves or walks which is a clear sign that the sun moves in high speed. Today, our scientists say that the Sun moves at an estimated speed of about 225 km per second (140 miles per second) in a nearly circular orbit.

Glory to Allah Almighty…………

Here we have to mention that recent scientists say that movement of the sun will not last forever but there are many evidences that the sun has a limited life, the amazing things is that Allah Almighty told us about thisscientific realityas He says:" and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is All-Aware of what you do."(Sûrat Luqmân-verse29). The question is, how told our illiterate prophet Mohamed peace be upon him about this scientific fact at a time when people used to travel between cities in weeks and months?

Glory to Allah Almighty who says about that:"And say [(O Muhammad ) to these polytheists and pagans etc.]: "All the praises and thanks be to Allah. He will show you His Ayat (signs, in yourselves, and in the universeor punishments, etc.), and you shall recognize them. And your Lord is not unaware of what you do." (Sûrat An-Naml-verse 93)

Floating in the space


http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/swimming-0.jpg Let us read this article to discover that all meanings of Quran are accurate and also to glorify Allah Almighty the creator of everything …




At the beginning of the twenty century, the scientists claimed that words of Qur'an are not accurate from the scientific point of view because Allah Almighty described all things in the space that they are floating; also those scientists claimed that the word floating is not accurate because all planets and galaxies are rotating not floating.

But after many years of researches, the astronomers discovered what is called the cosmic building which concludes that the entire universe is like a perfect building.

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/swimming-1.JPG


The scientists discovered that universe is full of material and empty space is not existed, so all planets are floating in universe but in low density, in fact this reality is discovered few years ago.

Recent scientists confirm that empty space is not existed but every part of universe is full of material and substance, so all planets and galaxies are floating in material.

Here we have to read what astronomers in NASA say about that: In space, astronauts do not walk on the floor like people on Earth do. They float around inside their spacecraft. That is because of microgravity. Microgravity is when things seem to be weightless. "Micro-" means "very small." Microgravity is when the pull of gravity is not very strong. In microgravity, it is easy to move heavy objects. Astronauts can even move things that weigh hundreds of pounds with just the tips of their fingers.

Astronauts are floating through the space station

Therefore, NASA used to send their Astronauts for training three weeks of swimming under water as a preparation fortheir space trip.

Conclusion

Muslims holly book of Quran used a scientific word more than 1400 years ago when Allah Almighty described the movement of all planets, galaxies and every moving ****** in the space as they are "floating".

Here we have to read and contemplate in the holy verse as Allah Almighty says:

"And He it is who has created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in an orbit floating." (Sûrat Al-Anbiyâ’-verse33).

Cosmic Parting: New facts

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/cosmic_rip_00.jpg
Is the Big Bang Theory correct? And could it be interpreted by the Quran verse of join and parting of heavens and earth? And what are the new facts that prove the universe was similar to an interwoven fabric that loosened its threads and split? …
A brother (May God reward him for the good, and everyone participating with useful information) has sent me a new research published on the Science News website, entitled (From Dark Matter to Light) that was mainly published on the Astrophysical Journal magazine. What caught my attention is that researchers nowadays are convinced that there are cosmic filaments that hold galaxies, and these filaments part like fabric threads split!
Let’s stop for a moment and think of this verse: (Have not those who disbelieve known that the heavens and the earth were joined together as one united piece, and thenWe parted them? And We have made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?) [Suraat Al-Anbiya/21:30]. The Arabic word (ritqan رَتْقًا) which means darn, sew, stitch is the opposite of (fitq فتق) which means split, breaks, and unstitches. Both words are used to describe fabric or textile.
In Ibn kathir’s translation he explained “Do they not see that the heavens and the earth were joined together, i.e. in the beginning they were all one piece, attached to one another and piled up on top of one another”
So Ibn kathir understood from the previous verse that,at the beginning of creation, the universe (the heavens and the earth) was a closely attached matter stacked on top of one another. Then Allah (swt) split and separated them apart.
Reading the previous research, we find researchers describeprecisely what Ibn Kathir said! They say that, at the beginning of creation, the universe was a woven-like material accumulated on top of each another and through billions of years its filaments diverged.
Surprisingly, they captured this process using a supercomputer, and almost certainly discovered that cosmic filamentsconstantly part much the same as threads split after ripping the fabric.
http://kaheel7.com/eng/images/stories/23423223.jpg

Computer picture showingthe universe at the beginning of its creation (after 450 million years of creation) like a filament-like material tightly woven like fabric (right), then filaments started separating like ripping the fabric apart. The picture on the left displays the universe after 6000 million years of creation. Closely look at the black spaces increasing over time and how the filaments are moving apart. These filaments are the galaxies and Allah knows best. Source:http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20080322/bob10.asp
http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/cosmic_rip_02.JPG
Take a look at the right picture which resembles cosmic filaments, and the left photo that resembles these filaments after a period of time. It is noticed that these filaments separate like a ripped fabric piece. Scientists note that galaxies flow along these filaments into the nodes direction. Each luminous point in this picture is a group of galaxies. Take a moment to consider this amazing cosmic joint!

Modern interpretation of the verse:
Qur’an was revealed 1400 years ago. Still, up to this day, Muslims try to understand and discover its miracles. Qur’an is full of verses regarding Cosmology (the science of the universe). We, as Muslims, should not neglect these verses based on excuses such as it is not permitted to interpret verses according to scientific theories, because we- as believers- are ordered to meditate through the Qur’anas well as the verses describing the universe because it is part of the Qur’an.
Some scientists related the previous verse to the Big Bang Theory, although not proven yet but it is the best theory so far explaining the formation of the universe. It states that the universe was a small mass which exploded apart and by time formed what nowadays are the stars, galaxies, sun, moon and earth.
http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/cosmic_rip_03.JPG
The Big Bang Theory is partially correct, the principle of the universe being one mass that its particle parted forming galaxies, stars and planets. The error in this theory is that explosion creates chaos and destruction rather than the perfect system we observe nowadays.
The issue with this theory is that it never explains where the initial mass came from, what caused the explosion or how a random explosion could create an accurately organized universe? That’s why some scientists accepted this theory, despite its flaws, it is the only good explanation they had.
But after more discoveries, scientists started speaking of great filaments which were joined together then parted in a precise system that is considered one of the greatest cosmic phenomena. This new theory, which is closer to the truth, could be observed. Galaxies were detected throughout the universe, then the information was entered into a three dimensional network using a supercomputer to place each galaxy in its correct place. To their surprise, scientists saw strands of galaxies intertwining and parting throughout billions of years.
We can conclude that the tight filaments in the beginning of cosmic creation is the joint (ritq) that is specified by the verse, and the accurate parting of these strands is the (fitq) thus this theory explains the previous verse accurately.
How Ibn Abbas understood the previous verse.
There is a wonderful interpretation of the verse by Ibn Abbas which he explains: the sky (heavens) was sewn and does not rain, and the Earth was sewn and does not germinate, then Allah parted the heavens with rain and Earth with plants. Indeed, it has been scientifically proven that earth, at the beginning of creation, was inflamed and does not germinate. Earth’s atmosphere was not formed yet, therefore there was no rain. Then, when the atmosphere has formed, clouds started composing and it began to rain so plants grew after Earth cooled down and mountain, rivers and seas were formed.
This clearly shows the greatness of the Qur’an, that it can be understood according to the current culture. We do not find any contradiction in the understanding of Allah Almighty’s book, and that is mentioned in the Qur’an which we were ordered to meditate upon the perfection of it. Allah Almighty says: (Do they not then consider the Qur’an carefully? Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein many contradictions.) [Suraat An-Nisa/4:82]
Is there a contradiction in the Qur’an?
Let me pause for a moment and say that it is not a problem if an interpreter was mistaken while explaining a verse, because the Qur’an is the absolute truth that does not change, while interpretation is only the human understanding of a verse.As people differ in their knowledge level and as science develops, there must be some improvement in interpreting the Qur'an. This does not offend the Qur’an, rather it emphasizes that theQur’an suits all ages as there is no other book that could be explained logically according to science, no matter how much science develops, like the Holy Qur’an.
With that said, this is a reply to people who deny the scientific miracles with the excuse of protecting the Qur’an. Mistakes made by humans are still done by them and the Qur’an is still impeccable. If the believer tries and mistakes he is rewarded by Allah once (if he has sincere intentions) and if he is correct he is rewarded twice. This proves there are no contradictions in the Qur’an, but there are different interpretations and understandings of the Qur’anic texts because the Qur’an was revealed to all human beings.
As a researcher in this field, I say that whoever explains scientific miracles does not insure that the scientific interpretation of the verse is the absolute truth. So do I believe that most writers and authors in this field know that, and they believe their researches are only their effortsrather than a Qur’an! The Qur’an is absolute and fixed, and changes in interpretations differ as sciences develop. This never offends the Qur’an, except those with bad intentions who look for researches’ mistakes to question Allah’s (swt) Book. The Qur’an mentioned this type of people 14 centuries ago in this great verse: (It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad SAW) the Book (this Qur’an). In it are Verses that are entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkâm (commandments), Al-Farâ'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of thieves, adulterers)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah (polytheism and trials), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden meanings exceptAllah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord." And none receive admonition except men of understanding) [Suraat Al-E-Imran/3:7]
Someone may say: why did Allah (swt) reveal similar or unclear verses? Does He want us astray from the truth? Is not this unfair to people? So why does He punish them? I would answer themwith a question: Do you know the latest method of exams in American universities? The multiple choice method! Where each question has several misleading choices and one true choice the student must answer. This distinguishes the hard-working student from the lazy one. I do not expect anyone saying teachers are deceiving their students, although they try their best to mislead them with many deceiving answers.
However, Allah (swt) has established a very clear way for us and saved us the effort by revealing the Qur’an ordering us to follow what is within. So is this guidance or misguidance? Deceiving means such as evil, Satan and desires are a must, so Allah would test our faith and obedience to Him.
What atheists and disbelievers do is: (they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah (polytheism and trials), and seeking for its hidden meanings,). While believers say: (We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord.") That is why the following verse includes an amazing dua’a (prayer) we should continuously say, and Allah gives the right answer of what we should do and say. Allah (swt) says: ("Our Lord!" (They say), "let not our hearts deviate now after Thou hast guided us, but grant us mercy from Thee: for Thou art the Grantor of bounties without measure. (8)"Our Lord! Thou art He that will gather mankind together against a day about which there is no doubt: for Allah never fails in His promise.”) [Suraat Al-E-Imran/3:8-9]
And now, after Allah has guided us to the right path, taught us everything we need through the Holy Qur’an and the Prophet’s Sunnah, forbade us from immoralities and misguidance, warned us against Satan and his methods and wanted us to be good, do we consider this guidance or misguidance? If a student in the exam hall received the correct answer from his teacher but insists on keeping the wrong answer, what would we consider this? Who is being unfair? And would we say the teacher is unjust toward the student or the student is unjust toward himself?
That is Allah Almighty! He wants happiness and wellness for us both in this world and the Hereafter! O Our Lord! Condemn us not because of those who are injustice toward themselves, and let us be amongstYour obedient servants and the winners in this world and the Hereafter: ("Our Lord! We believe in what thou hast revealed, and we follow the Messenger; then write us down among those who bear witness.”)[Suraat Al-E-Imran/ 3:53].

Did man land on the moon?


http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_00.jpg
We want to discuss some of the rumors that have spread recently about the fact of man landing on the moon and if the first astronaut converted to Islam because he heard the (Adhan) the Muslim call for prayers when he was on the moon?…

A dear brother asked a question about the landing of the first man on the moon, and how some scientists denied that claim. They said that the photos which were taken on the moon were fabricated and were really taken on earth. The question here: Is this claim true?

Dear beloved ones, I say that the believer is smart and wise, and it is not easy to convince him by false things. In our journey with scientific miracles, we always make sure of any scientific fact for hundreds of times and from different scientific sources to make our words correct, documented, consolidated and close to the mind and the heart. This is our approach in researches and I wish all brothers and sisters follow the same approach.

Landing of the first man on the moon was a very unique historical event. It raised a big noise in 1969 when NASA launched Apollo flight. There were different reactions and rumors were made about this event. The most surprising rumor was that astronaut Neil Armstrong has announced his conversion to Islam because he heard the (Adhan) the call for prayers on the surface of moon! But the one who made this rumor forgot that the moon does not have an atmosphere and sound doesn`t spread in space!

Some western scientists have questioned the landing of the man on the moon (their aim was to be famous! as stated by one of the amateur astronomers in an article on the BBC web site. He said that there are mistakes in the published photos by NASA which assure that they were fabricated. To avoid prolonging we will present only one example. He displayed an image of the American flag flapping on the surface of the moon. He said that the moon doesn’t have an atmosphere or any wind on its surface so where did the winds come from?

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_01.JPG


The photo shows one of the astronauts on the moon beside the flapping American flag. Where did the air which was moving the flag come from?. Also, shadow of the astronaut doesn`t match the shadow of the spaceship. They also say that the astronaut`s suite is not sufficient enough to block the strong radiation on the surface of the moon and the image does not show the stars in the sky of the moon which should appear…….etc. You can look at some sites which believe that landing on the moon is a lie, For example see reference (1)


Actually, astronauts had arranged for this historical picture and studied it well before, therefore they placed ****l wires inside the flag to appear as if it is flapping. The light on the surface of the moon is different from Earth (as we know) the moon has no atmosphere as Earth, so it does not show the stars clearly. Moreover, shadow of things on the surface of the moon is different from the surface of earth because the surface of the moon does not have day such as on the Earth .If you look at the sky you will see it black.

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_02.JPG


The photo shows astronaut Armstrong and his colleague fixing the position of the flag to appear as if it is flapping in the photo. For more information, visit NASA site. Don`t forget that the space ship is equipped with advanced technologies too. It cost billions of dollars; therefore the success of the film is very necessary. They wanted this film to record the event historically; therefore they arranged it very well. The astronauts` suites were also studied carefully to bare the radiation; as well the timing of the trip was studied well in order to land on the safe part of the moon (reference 2).


If we suppose that NASA scientists wanted to lie (as some people say), this lie should involve thousands of people at least: the spaceship crew, the engineers who are the supervisors of the design, the launching and ******* of the spaceship as well as the participants team of scientists and researchers and all NASA scientists. The media must participate too in this lie because as we know a scientist can`t deceive his colleague easily.

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_03.jpg


Do you expect that thousands of scientists at NASA and space agencies in the world are conspiring, and for what? Politicians and ordinary employees who work on operating the spaceship on the moon and the equipment on Earth should also participate in this lie too. Most important is how they guaranteed that all people kept their deceiving for 38 years! Even if we believe that NASA agency deceives people it means that we must doubt all astronomy science and facts today, and this is impossible.


Our question is: Why didn`t Russian scientists who were in a race and war case with America ****** to the fact of the landing on the moon? Why didn`t Chinese, Japanese scientists and European Space Agency and other Space Agencies in the world made an objection? Notice that there is no space agency in the world objects to the landing of man on the moon, those who ****** to this event are only few scientists and amateurs. Why haven`t we see any of the scientists ****** to the flights carried out by NASA to Mars which is more far away from the moon hundred times at least?

We also say: If any space agency can promote such a lie (as this), we would have seen many claims every day. It is easy for someone to claim that he could go outside the galaxy or to travel in a speed faster than the speed of light and other things which are impossible in science. NASA agency posted an article to replay on these claims. You can look at reference (3) at the end of research.

Fox T.V displayed a documentary program about the landing of man on the moon as a lie and conveyed a lot of fabricated ideas which a lot of scientists and concerned people replied to this claim. This site is a neutral one, which views the program and the scientific replies to the claim, reference (4).

Dr. McKay Head of scientists at NASA agency, says: Fabricating one rock and making it appear like the rocks on the moon is much harder than landing on the moon! The samples which astronauts brought back were examined by thousands of laboratories in many countries of the world and no scientists claimed that these samples are not taken from the moon. In addition, there is a lab at NASA with a store that contains many samples of moon rocks and dust (hundreds of kilograms). These samples were seen by thousands of scientists from many countries of the world. Where did these moon rocks and dust come from? You go to reference (5).This is also another neutral site which presents details of the claim and drives logical scientific proofs, reference (6).

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_04.JPG


The moon`s surface is always exposed to meteorites which hits the moon`s rocks at a speed of 80,000 kilometers per hour so it makes a big hole in the rocks. These meteorites do not penetrate Earth`s rocks, but they scattered in the atmosphere which Allah Almighty made it a safe ceiling for us! Moreover, the moon`s rocks contain a lot of radioactive isotopes that emerged as a result of accumulated emitting by cosmic ray. This ray diminishes within the magnetosphere of the earth; that’s why earth`s rocks are very different from moon`s rocks. Here we remember the grace of Allah Almighty in his verse: (And We have made the heaven a roof, safe and well guarded. Yet they turn away from its signs (i.e. sun, moon, winds, clouds, etc.)).


] Al Anbia: 32[


Did the scientists find a glowing material in the moon?

Long ago, scientists began talking about an illumination on the surface of the moon discovered that the moon`s surface has a radioactivity which is different from the Earth. That is because Earth is surrounded by a strong magnetic field that saves the Earth from any cosmic radiation. However the moon does not have any atmosphere, therefore, it receives a large amount of electrified solar wind and cosmic radiation. This radiation interact with the moon’s dust and makes it reflect the sun rays more than the rest of other planets, so it seems not only illuminating, but very illuminating!!

Dr. Mark Norman from the University of Tasmania says: We have examined the samples from the moon and find them different from the Earth`s rocks and the most thing that distinguish them is the proportion of glass in the dust of the moon! This glass is 3 billion years and there are no proportion of glass in the rocks on Earth which have the same age .This glass is the reason why the moon seems more illuminating than other planets.Before I continue my discussion with you brothers and sisters, I remember a great Quran verse in which Allah Almighty describes the moon as an illumining ******: (Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light)]Al Furqan:61[. It is curious to find some scientists reveal glowing spots on the surface of the moon as it was stated by the BBC News website in an article titled “lights glow on the moon”. Scientists said that the moon is not a dead ****** as it was believed before; there are radiation activities on the surface. To know more information about this scientific discovery go to BBC News website.

In a new research on NASA site, scientists found that the moon receives a lot of cosmic particles coming from the sun and they are electrically charged. Consequently, the surface of the moon becomes electrically charged at specific times which forms storms of moon`s dust. When sun light (photons of light) fall, it reacts with moon`s dust and glow strongly like an electric lamp receiving amount of electricity! See reference (8).

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_05.jpg


Recently, scientists found that the moon`s dust is very dangerous because it is electrified; the design of the moon helps to make it an ****** which is strongly influenced by the sun and seems illuminating. The absence of a magnetic field around the moon and the nature of moon`s soil resulting from the defamation of millions of meteorites, and the distance of the moon from the earth and the sun, in addition to the distinguished composition of the moon`s soil which contains a large proportion of glass! All these factors help the moon to spread large amounts of light, to appear glowing to us. Unlike the Earth which, if we viewed it from the moon side, we will not see it illuminating .This illumination gives the moon a distinctive feature. Scientists have noticed the presence of glowing spots caused by radioactivity on the surface of the moon, thus, this scientific discovery has been stated by the Quran fourteen centuries as Allah Almighty describes it as a glowing body, the Almighty says: (and a moon giving light) reference(9)


Did Armstrong hear the Adhan (call for prayers) on the moon?

There is a strong rumor says that Armstrong heard the Adhan on the moon, so did the first astronaut to land on the moon became a Muslim?In fact, such rumors spread strongly among people; unfortunately, we find senior Muslim scholars believe that without checking the source of information.

The rumor saysthatthe first astronaut to land on the moon in 1969 heard the Adhan on the moon, and then when he was on a trip to an Arab country he heard the Adhan and asked what it is. He was told that it is the Muslim call for prayers. He said I`ve heard the same voice on the moon, and then he converted to Islam. In order to make the lie more elaborate, they said that NASA fired him from his job as a result of his conversion to Islam, he said: “I lost my job, but found Allah!”

After searching, it became clear that the astronaut was not fired from his job, and found that he repeatedly said that he respected Islam but he is still on his religion. Anyone who analyzes this rumor sees it contradicts itself. How can an astronaut, also an engineer who studied the laws of spreading of sound can hear this sound and keep silent. He did not record the sound or tell anyone about it or register the patent of a new discovery. Then he waits for years to hear it again in an Arab country and asks what's that sound, as if, he, the one who landed on the moon is an ordinary person and not a researcher and a scientist!

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_06.JPG


Today, you can make sure from any information in the internet. NASA Agency put an up to date biography of astronaut Armstrong (March 2008) and did not mention his conversion to Islam or firing him from his job or anything else. You can go to NASA site to be sure of this information. (Ref. No. 10).


Of course, any rumor carries the prints of its owner who started the rumor. This person forgot that sound does not spread in space, and that the surface of the moon does not contain air, so where did the sound come from? What about the rest of the team who was with him. Why this rumor chose this man (Armstrong)? Of course because he is the most famous among them!

http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/moon_man_07.jpg


During his visit to Malaysia, Armstrong was asked about the news of his conversion to Islam which he denied. He also denied hearing the voice of prayer on the moon. Though, he stressed his respect to Islam. Such statements were posted on hundreds of sites, for example, the reference number (11).



Did the moon split?

One brother called me long ago and asked me about the fact of the split of the moon. I told him that Allah has told us about the split of the moon and we believe everything stated in the Quran, but he heard repeatedly that NASA scientists discovered, during their journey to the moon, that the moon has split in half and then cohered back again!!! But after a long discussion with some atheist scientists it became clear that NASA scientists did not say that. They completely deny any such thing, though they admit that the surface of the moon contains long cracks, they did not discover the cause of the cracks until now! For more information on this topic, you can find an article entitled: “did NASA scientists discover that the moon has split? Reference (12)

Conclusion

1– Man’s landing on the moon is an inescapable fact, and is in accordance with the holy verse:

(O assembly of jinn and men! If you have power to pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, then pass beyond (them)! But you will never be able to pass them, except with authority (from Allâh) ]AL Rahman:33[. Man could not go outside the diameters of heaven, but he is still within the limits of his solar system, and all he did was travelling in space for very short distance! Of course nobody denied this fact, only few researchers who are not scientifically recognized, there is no international agency that has denied such fact, it’s only a matter of propaganda.

2 - The astronaut Armstrong did not convert to Islam, even if we wished him to do that, but Allah guides whom He wills. If he converted to Islam he will not benefit anyone but himself, and the religion of Islam is a strong religion in itself and does not need for anyone, but people are in need of Islam.

3 -The miracle of split of the moon is a definite fact to us as muslins .Though NASA scientists did not say that, I think that days will reveal new facts to prove the truth of this miracle to those atheists who deny any miracle. We should not say that NASA scientists stated that the moon split in half, only by significant scientific evidence.

4- When Allah Almighty described that the moon is glowing and said (and a moon giving light) it means that the moon is distinguished from other planets with glowing feature, and that was proved by scientists through their analysis of moon rocks and soil. Scientists found that these rocks contain a high proportion of glass. They also discovered active radiation on the surface of the moon which enables the moon to reflect the sun’s rays strongly to make it seem illuminative indeed, as described by Allah, and this proves that the Qur'an is accurate in its expression.

I advise each brother and sister to follow this advice:

I found a lot of sites which deny such news and mock of Muslims who believe anything!! Therefore, I advise my brothers and sisters: Do not give a chance for atheists to play with your minds, and don’t participate in advertising for such rumors that do not serve Islam. You must make sure of source of information prior to publication, how much I wish from brothers and sisters who believe such rumors to contact NASA agency in order to make sure of the news because NASA is the most professional source about this and knows better than us. I also wish they write to the astronaut Armstrong himself to make sure of his conversion to Islam, rather than working hard in spreading this false report! I cannot find a solution for this phenomenon: the phenomenon of fabricating articles which are attributed to the scientific miracles, but to increase our greatest prayers on our great Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him).

Secrets of the sun and lunar eclipses


http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/eclipse_000.JPG
The miracles of the prophet Mohamed's' sayings are not less significant as the Quran; the illiterate prophets' sayings are revealed from Allah almighty …

Allah almighty says: " By the star when it goes down * Your companion (Mohamed(peace be upon him)) has neither gone astray nor has erred* Nor does he speak of his own desire* it is only a Revelation revealed* He has been taught (this Quran) by one mighty in power ( Gabriel) " [An-Najm: 1-5] .

During the prophet's time, the phenomenon of the sun eclipsed had occurred. People, then, were saying that the sun eclipsed for the death of Ibrahim, the prophets' son peace be upon him who died in the same day of the phenomena.

It was usual for the ancients to attribute any phenomena to myths and legends, such as attributing the sun eclipse to the death of an important king, or that it is a sign for losing a battle or for removing the king's property.

Among the funny things that ancient people used to believe is that the sun eclipsed due to a dragon that swallowed it. So they used to beat on the drums and threw arrows toward the sky to scare away that dragon, then they said that the dragon was frightened so he threw the sun back and run away! Other people believed that when the sun eclipsed, then an important event is about to happen due to attributing the sun with gods. While we judge these thoughts as mere myth, people during that time thought they were strong facts.


When people came to the prophet Mohamed "peace be upon him" and said that the sun had eclipsed for the death of Ibrahim, what did he tell them? Did he agree with them or did he correct their beliefs? He "peace be upon him" said: "The sun and the moon are among Allah's (SWT) signs that don't eclipse for the death or the life of someone" Correct Hadith narrated by Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim may Allah (SWT) have mercy on them.

We can from this Hadith conclude several unique miracles for the prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him" and will discover that he is the first human (of course inspired by Allah (SWT)) to lay the foundation of studying astronomy.

Perhaps among the important effects of the solar eclipse is the confusion that appears on some animals and birds. Birds stop singing,some animals think that the night descended, so they snooze in their nests,and roses that open during the day and close during the night will close during the sun eclipse. There are also important effects on tides and many other results.


How does this phenomenon occur? What are the causes and what are the results?

The earth we live on orbits around the sun once every year. The moon also orbits around the earth once every lunar month. It happens that, in certain times, when the sun is bright and sending its rays, the moon while rotating comes in front of it and covers it totally, so we say that the sun has eclipsed.

The phenomenon of the sun eclipse is very dangerous. That's because the sun is the lamp that transmits lights and dangerous radiations. The most dangerous radiation is infrared which is transmitted via the sun on a permanent basis but does not harm us because we don't look directly to the sun. When the moon comes in front of the sun and covers only part of it, we call this phenomenon a partial eclipse. However, if the moon covers the sun totally, the phenomenon is a total eclipse, where the sun disappears and the world suddenly is dark for a minute or two.


When the moon passes in front of the sun and covers part of its light, we can see the sun, but the infrared radiation is invisible. If we look momentarily at the sun during the eclipse, the retina will get serious injuries and infections. Also, this radiation might cause temporary or permanent blindness. Scientists recommend not looking at the sun during eclipse because it sends large amount of infrared radiation.

The moon doesn't send out any rays; Allah (SWT) precisely describes it saying:" and a moon giving light " [Al-Furqan: 61], without originally producing light or rays. The moon reflects rays, and we receive the safe ones. Allah (SWT) describes it as an ****** that reflects light, while the sun is the light and the illumination source. Based on this fact, watching the moon while in eclipse doesn't cause any harm.


The other phenomenon is the lunar eclipse. The moon reflects the sun's light toward our planet, so we see it illuminating in our sky. Allah (SWT) says: "Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light " [Al-Furqan: 61] .

During lunar phenomenon, the earth locates in the middle of the moon and the sun masking the sun's light, so the moon appears as a dim copper disc.

While sun and lunar eclipse occur on the earth, the eclipse phenomenon occurs for other planets. Most planets in the universe have moons that orbit around them, and sometimes, these moons pass in front of the sun covering the sun's light and leaving the planets dark for a few minutes. Scientist"from NASA" were able to take a photograph for the planet Jupiter during the eclipse as seen on the picture. The black spots represent the planet's moon's shadow during the eclipse


We can conclude from these facts that the sun and the moon revolve in a controlled and accurate system, and the eclipse phenomenon is a natural process that doesn't occur in a result of someone's death or life.

Certainly, Scientists discovered a giant black hole at the center of our galaxy which is 4 million times double the sun, Qur’an had referred to these creatures,…
Black holes are terrifying cosmic phenomenon and scientists are trying to discover its secrets and they found that these holes are in our galaxy and they are heavy four million times than the sun!
A group of germen scientists from Max Planck Society had found strong evidence that these holes are existed in our galaxy (Milky Way) and they accurately measured the space between earth and the center of the galaxy.
Before, it was just a kind of estimation because of the billions of stars but now it is a clear reality with no doubt.
For 16 years those scientists performed many studies on 28 stars around the center of Milky Way and by studying the movement of these starts they said that they became able to determine the characteristics of the substance that these stars are moving around.
Professor Reinhard Gentzl head of the research team said “our study offered a strong evidence on the existence of the giant black holes ”
http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/bl...e_milkyway.JPG
Astronomers accurately measured the space between earth and the center of the galaxy as they found it 27000 light years and they used infrared rays to penetrate the dust clouds
Did Quran pointed to these Black Holes?
Scientists say that these super-massive black holes are dead stars but they are very heavy within very narrow space, they are the cemetery of the stars, swallow, sweep everything coming close to it even light and they are swimming in the space.
As they have very enormous gravity they attract even light and do not reflect it and do not allow any light to leave, so, they are invisible.
Because of the greatness of these creatures, they are one of the very great cosmic phenomena.
Allah, Almighty swears by it (To show how great they are) and by their distinctive characteristics:
(Invisible, swims in the space, sweeps and swallows anything close to it even light).
Quran summed up these attributes in only three words. He almighty says:
“So, verily I swear of that invisibles * that running and sweep” At-Takweer (verses 15,16)
Since Allah, The Almighty swears by these frightful holes, it is a must that these should be discovered by human one day to be evidence of the sincerity of the Quran.
And this discovery must be on the hand of unbelievers to show them a proof for the sincerity of the Quran and to be as an argument on them on the Day of Resurrection.
And of course the appeal is addressed to non-Muslims, because Muslims believe in all that came in the Quran without physical evidence on this.
This means that the Quran text includes three clear miracles:
1. had preceded the Non- Muslims scientists in talking about the black holes phenomenon.
2. Pointed to an implication that these holes exist and will be discovered, as everything that Allah swears by it is necessary to be seen whether by human in this world or in the Hereafter to be a proof on the sincerity of the Quran.
3 - There is an implication that who will discover these holes are non-Muslim, and this is what actually happened, as the Scientists who discovered these holes are non-Muslims, and Allah talked to them as an answer to his swear:
“Verily this is the word of a most honorable Messenger” (At-Takweer-verse19)
Our question for those who denies these miracles: Do black holes have been described with such accuracy, accidentally? Or is there a scientific miracle in the Quran?
