| All scientific circles in the world today agree
that the planets were originally composed of a mass of Sodium gas and that first
the heavens and the earth were joined together as a single entity and then they
separated from each other. Centuries ago, the Quran referred to this scientific
theory.
It says when describing the creation of the heavens:

"Then
God turned to the creation of the heavens (the planets), when they were but a
smoky substance." (41:11)

"Do
the unbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were joined together before
we separated them, and that We brought all living things into nexistence from
water? Why do they still not believe in God?"
(21:30)
Thus the Quran unveils one of the
great mysteries of nature: the planets were originally composed of smoky substance
(mass of Sodium gas), and the separation of the planets from a huge object and
then their separation from each other. Since at the time of revelation of the
Quran, the general level of knowledge and science was extremely low, does this
not constitute a proof of the heavenly nature of the Quran? |
