Lights on the way

The sun does not literally set in a muddy spring. The Quran verse you’re referring to says “He found it setting on a hot spring”. Of course, from background knowledge, it’s obvious that the sun doesn’t really set, and God is using figurative language here. Also another meaning for “find” is to perceive something a certain way. So this was simply talking about Zul-Qarnain seeing the sun like it was setting on a spring.

he is saying that he was describing and sun doesnt set and rise These are all perceptions of the people themselves. What does the sun have to do with the story in all this? There is no where in the story where the sun is the focus

When one speaks of the setting and rising of the sun, no one is actually referring to the actual movement of the sun. They are talking about how it appears to move while on Earth. Therefore if you were at the place Zul-Qarnain was, and you looked at the horizon during the sunset at that time and place, and there happened to be a spring at the distance where the sunset was taking place, you would have seen the sun as setting on the spring.

Iron is one of the elements highlighted in the Qur'an. There is even a chapter named "al-Hadid", which means "iron".
The following is stated in verse 25 of the chapter of al-Hadid:


"And We also sent down iron in which there lies great force and which has many uses for mankind." (al-Hadid, 25)

The word "anzalna", used for the formation of iron in the verse means "we sent down". However, what we know is that the iron is dug out from the underground. In our opinion, "we dug out" should have been preferred instead of "we sent down". However, the situation is not as what we think. With the expression "we sent down" in the verse, a very important scientific miracle is pointed out.



It is as follows: For the formation of the mineral of iron, a certain temperature is needed. This necessary temperature exists neither in the earth nor in the sun. The sun has a surface temperature of 6.000 degrees Celsius, and a core temperature of approximately 15 million degrees. However, this temperature is inadequate for the formation of iron. Iron can only be produced in stars much larger than the Sun, where the temperature reaches a few hundred million degrees. When the amount of iron exceeds a certain level in stars called a "nova" or a "supernova", the star can no longer accommodate it, and it eventually explodes. These explosions make it possible for iron to be dispersed into space. All astronomic discoveries have put forth that the mineral of iron comes from huge stars of outer space.




Not only the iron in the earth but also the iron in the solar system is acquired from outer space. For, as we have stated before, the temperature of the sun is not enough for the formation of the iron mineral. What is understood from all above is that the mineral of iron is not formed in the earth but sent down by being carried away from supernovas just as it is stated in the verse.



It is not possible for this knowledge to be known in the age when the Qur'an was revealed, that is, 1400 years ago. Since it is not possible, how can it be explained that this information exists in the Qur'an?
Is there any explanation other than the fact that the Qur'an is the book of Allah?
Besides, it has been mentioned in the verse that the iron has many benefits for humans. However, people used the iron only to make swords at the time when this verse was revealed and did not know other benefits of the iron. Despite this, the Qur'an stated, "it has many benefits for mankind".

Now let us see the latest scientific data on iron:




Without the iron atom, carbon-based life in the cosmos would not be possible.
That is, there would be no supernovae, no heating of the primitive earth, no atmosphere or hydrosphere. There would be no protective magnetic field, no Van Allen radiation belts, no ozone layer, no metal to make hemoglobin in human blood, no metal to tame the reactivity of oxygen, and no oxidative metabolism.
It is very significant and wise that attention is attracted to the iron particularly and that the following is stated about it: "iron in which there lies great force and which has many uses for mankind".





Along with what we have mentioned above, there is one more secret in this verse. It is as follows: The verse that mentions iron is verse 25 of the chapter of al-Hadid. This verse contains two rather interesting mathematical codes



"Al-Hadid" is the 57th chapter in the Qur'an. When the word is uttered with the definite article al (the) as "al-Hadid" in Arabic, the sum of the abjad value (numerological value) of its letters is also 57. The numerological value of the word "hadid" alone (without the definite article) is 26. And 26 is the atomic number of the iron. That is, when we utter it as al-hadid, its numerological value is 57, which is the number of the chapter in the Quran. When we utter it as hadid, its numerological value is 26, which is the atomic number of the iron




Now, let us think justly: Is it possible for a human being who could not read and write and who lived in the desert 1400 years ago, when science and technology did not exist even by name, to know that iron was sent down from the sky and to write it in a book by paying attention to numerological values? Can any sane person accept it? Can a person who accepts it be regarded sane?




In that case, it is nonsense and delusion equal to closing one's eye to the sun, which illuminates the world, to say that the Quran is the word of a human being. A person who closes his eyes is able to turn day into night only for himself. We send endless praise and thanks to our Lord, who does not leave us in darkness and who turns the night into day with the light of the Quran.

Quran is not a book of Science but it is a book of signs and is a book of guidance for mankind. It does contain many scientific facts which were never discovered at the time of prophet and have been discovered very recently. Quran was never revealed to tell about scientific facts, but it was revealed for Human kind to take guidance from it by reading and understanding it and follow and live the life accordingly. However in narration people discovered so many scientific facts which only were revealed very recently. Many of the muslims at the time of the prophet were not even aware of the scientific facts being mentioned in the quran and they were not established facts

and only now we are able to understand and relate to those facts by reading Quran


There are “hundreds” of scientific facts in the Quran but i would like to state only one below


.


Uniqueness of Fingerprint


A man came to the prophet, and ask him O Mohammed do you say that Allah (God) will bring me back to life after i become like this dead Bones. Then Allah (God) reply with this verse in the holy Qur'an:




Allah says in the Holy Quran : “Does man think that WE Cannot assemble his bones? Indeed, WE are able to put Together in perfect order The very tips of his fingers (75: 1-4)






Unbelievers argue regarding resurrection taking place after bones of dead people have disintegrated in the earth and how each individual would be identified on the Day of Judgement. ALMIGHTY ALLAH answers that HE can not only assemble our bones but can also reconstruct perfectly our very fingertips.





Why does the QUR'AN, while speaking about determination of the identity of the individual, speak specifically about fingertips?




In 1880, fingerprinting became the scientific method of identification, after research done by Sir Francis Golt. No two persons in the world can ever have exactly the same fingerprint pattern. That is the reason why police forces worldwide use fingerprints to identify the criminal. 1400 years ago who could have known the uniqueness of each human's fingerprint? Surely it could have been none other than the CREATOR HIMSELF!.










The Qur’aan is not a Book of Science but it is a Book of Signs - Dr Zakir Naik



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cyXjQ6LUjE

Many diverse subjects are mentioned in the Qur'an in the course of inviting people to believe. Sometimes the heavens, sometimes animals, and sometimes plants are shown as evidence to man by God. In many of the verses, people are called upon to turn their attention to their own creation. They are often reminded how man came into the world, which stages he has passed through, and what his essence is:

"It is We Who have created you. Why, then, do you not accept the truth? Have you ever considered that (seed) which you emit? Is it you who create it? Or are We the Creator?"
(The Qur'an, 56:57-59)



The creation of man, and the miraculous aspect of this, is stressed in many other verses. Some items of information within these verses are so detailed that it is impossible for anyone living in the 7th century to have known them. Some of these are as follows:



1. Man is not created from the entire semen, but only a very small portion of it (sperm).
2. It is the male that determines the sex of the baby.
3. The human embryo adheres to the mother's uterus like a leech.
4. The embryo develops in three dark regions in the uterus.



People living when the Qur'an was revealed, to be sure, knew that the basic substance of birth was related to the semen of the male emitted during sexual intercourse. And the fact that the baby was born after a nine-month period was obviously an observable event not calling for any further investigation. However, the items of information just quoted were far above the level of learning of the people living at that time. These were verified by 20th century science.

The Victory of Byzantium





Another astonishing piece of revelation that the Qur'an gives about the future is to be found in the first verses of Sura Rum, which refers to the Byzantine Empire, the eastern part of the later Roman Empire. In these verses, it is stated that the Byzantine Empire had met with a great defeat, but that it would soon gain victory.



"Elif, Lam, Mim. The Romans have been defeated in the lowest land, but after their defeat they will themselves be victorious in a few years' time. The affair is God's from beginning to end."
(The Qur'an, 30:1-4)

The Dead Sea basin where Byzantium was defeated by Persians. Above is a satellite photograph of the region. The Lake of Lut region, which is the lowest region of the world, is 395 meter below the sea level.



These verses were revealed around 620 AD, almost seven years after the severe defeat of Christian Byzantium at the hands of the idolater Persians. Yet it was related in the verses that Byzantium would shortly be victorious. In fact, Byzantium had then suffered such heavy losses that it seemed impossible for it even to survive, let alone be victorious again.


Not only the Persians, but also Avars, Slavs and Lombards posed serious threats to the Byzantine Empire. The Avars had reached as far as the walls of Constantinople. The Byzantine Emperor Heraclius had ordered the gold and silver in churches to be melted and turned into money in order to meet the expenses of the army. When these proved insufficient, even bronze statues were melted down to be turned into money.


Many governors had revolted against Emperor Heraclius, and the empire was on the point of collapse. Mesopotamia, Cilicia, Syria, Palestine, Egypt and Armenia, which had earlier belonged to Byzantium, were invaded by the idolater Persians.(20)


In short, everyone was expecting the Byzantine Empire to be destroyed. But right at that moment, the first verses of Sura Rum were revealed, announcing that Byzantium would triumph in a few years' time. This victory seemed so impossible that Arab polytheists had gone so far as to make fun of these verses. They thought that the victory announced in the Qur'an would never come true.


Around seven years after the revelation of the first verses of Sura Rum, in December 627 AD, a decisive battle between Byzantium and the Persian Empire was fought at Nineveh. And this time the Byzantine army unexpectedly defeated the Persians. A few months later, the Persians had to make an agreement with Byzantium, which obliged them to return the territories they had taken from it.(21)



At the end, "the victory of the Romans," proclaimed by God in the Qur'an, miraculously came true.



بريطانية تريد معانقة شمسي بعد نطق الشهادتين

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAEigVNQkPo

Another miracle revealed in these verses is the announcement of a geographical fact that could not have been known by anyone at that time.




In the third verse of Sura Rum, we are informed that the Romans had been defeated in the lowest region of the Earth. This expression, "Adna al Ard" in Arabic, is interpreted as "a nearby place" in many translations. Yet this is not the literal meaning of the original statement, but rather a figurative interpretation of it. The word "Adna" in Arabic is derived from the word "deni", which means "low" and "ard", which means "world". Therefore the expression "Adna al Ard" means "the lowest place on the Earth".




Most interestingly, the crucial stages of the war fought between the Byzantine Empire and the Persians, when the Byzantines were defeated and lost Jerusalem, had really taken place at the lowest point on earth. This specified region is the Dead Sea basin, which is situated at the intersection point of the lands belonging to Syria, Palestine, and Jordan. The "Dead Sea", lying 395 meters below sea level, really is the lowest region on Earth.





. The altitude of the Dead Sea could only be determined with modern measurement techniques. These measurements led to the discovery that this is the "lowest region on the Earth".




This means that the Byzantines were defeated at the lowest part of the world, just as stated in the verse.




The most interesting point lies in the fact that the altitude of the Dead Sea could only be measured with modern measurement techniques. Before that, it was impossible for anyone to know that it was the lowest region on the surface of the Earth. Yet, this region was stated to be the lowest point on the Earth in the Qur'an. Hence, this provides further evidence that the Qur'an is divine revelation

The modern Medical science discovered that leprosy disease is one of the most dangerous skin diseases which gets transferred by the Leprosy microbe which has been seen and recognized before one hundred years, however, still (modern medical circles could not find an effective cure to this disease or control it.


Doctors do not know until today the path of infection with the leprosy microbe.. The prevailing opinion now is that infection with it occurs by touching the patient’s skin many times and repeatedly for a long time.. Therefore, it appears in contacts For the patient..however, it appears in only 1% of the contacts..which indicates that contact with the patient’s skin does not transmit the infection until after a long time, and the disease microbe is not transmitted through food or drink, because it is a very weak microbe, even if it reaches the stomach To kill immediately in the acidic medium of the stomach..


Leprosy affects the terminals of the nerves such as the limbs. It makes the leprous lose the sense of feeling. Therefore, he does not feel heat or cold. He may not even the piercing of at horn to his skin. The leprous faces atrophy of the muscles of arms and legs. Ulcers spread on his body particularly on hand and legs. Bones erode and the leprous loses his fingers. It may affected the cornea of the eyes & makes him blind, it may also affect his testis & this means that the leprous may loose fertility & becomes sterile.


Leprosy is of two kinds, the knot leprosy. It affects the people with weak immunization system. It appears in the form of different size knots. It spreads all over the body, particularly, the face and gives it a special shape which makes it resemble the face of a lion. It also causes hair drop. It may also affect the mucous membrane & creates bleeding.


The numbed knots Leprosy is the second type of leprosy which appears on the skin in the form of pale knots which have different shapes and sizes. They are characterized by loss of sense, sweating and loss of the skin pigment. This type of leprosy affects people who have good immunization system.


The greatness of the directive of the prophet (PBUH) appears in the fact that he advised people into to gaze at leprous. He said “Don’t gaze at Leprous” [Refer to Irshad Elsari to Sharh of Bukhari].


The modern science proved that when the leprous sees a healthy or normal person, he gazes at him and then suffers from psychological pain. Therefore, the advice of the prophet wanted to respect the feelings of the leprous.


The saying of the prophet (PBUH) which asked people to run away from the leprous as they run away from the lion shows the dangerous nature of this disease which can be transferred easily and its overwhelming nature.


Warning against the leprosy disease, the prophet Mohammed (PBUH) said:
“Escape away from the Leprous the way you escape away from the Lion” [Refer to Bukhari]


In the nineteenth century (1847), the first description of a leprosy patient was written by the two doctors, Daniel and Boyck, who said in describing them in one word: (The face of a leprosy patient resembles the face of a lion), and the face of a leper patient was never described with this description before 1847...except We notice that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, mentioned this scientific description in his saying: “Escape away from the Leprous the way you escape away from the Lion” But he chose the word (the lion). It happened to describe the words of the noble Prophetic hadith that is described in a description that combines meaning and image, , all in one word, , which indicates that it is a revelation from God Almighty to His Messenger.


Modern science also advised people to avoid leprosy people so long as the disease they nurse is active and not neutralized and its activity is not suspended by the use of the available resistant.

FORMATION OF PETROLEUM IN HOLY QURAN

BISMILLAHIR RAHMANINIR RAHEEM (In the Name of Allah Most gracious Most merciful)

How Petroleum/ Gas Formed?

As we all know, the formation of petroleum can be easily explained in three steps.




Step 1 - All of the oil and gas we use today began as microscopic plants and animals living in the ocean millions of years ago. As these microscopic plants and animals lived, they absorbed energy from the sun, which was stored as carbon molecules in their bodies. When they died, they sank to the bottom of the sea. Over millions of years, layer after layer of sediment and other plants and bacteria were formed





Step 2 - As they became buried ever deeper, heat and pressure began to rise. The amount of pressure and the degree of heat, along with the type of biomass, determined if the material became oil or natural gas. More heat produced lighter oil. Even higher heat or biomass made predominantly of plant material produced natural gas.





Step 3 - After oil and natural gas were formed, they tended to migrate through tiny pores in the surrounding rock. Some oil and natural gas migrated all the way to the surface and escaped. Other oil and natural gas deposits migrated until they were caught under impermeable layers of rock or clay where they were trapped. These trapped deposits are where we find oil and natural gas today.




Allah (SWT) says this in his holy Quran as follows,
“Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High: He Who created and molded; He Who determined and guided; He Who brings forth green pasture, then makes it blackened stubble. (Qur'an, 87:1-5)”




The three elements identified in the first four verses of Surat al-A'la parallel the formation of petroleum. It is quite likely that the term "almaraa," meaning pasture or meadow, refers to the organically-based substances in the formation of petroleum. The second word of note in the verse is "ahwa," used to describe blackish-green, greenish-black, dark or sooty colours.


This word can be thought of as describing the waste plant matter accumulated underground gradually turning black, since these words are supported by a third word, "ghuthaan." The word "ghuthaan" translated as stubble, can also mean flood-water plants, plants brought together by waste matter being collected and dispersed around valleys, rubbish, leaves or foam.


In addition to the connotation of "vomiting out" implied in the word, it may also be translated as "to flood forth vomited matter," and describes the way that the earth "vomits" forth petroleum. In fact, in the light of the formation of petroleum, the way it emerges, its foam-like appearance and its colour, one can better see with what wisdom were employed the words in the verses.





As has been discussed, the plant in the verse turning into a dark and viscous liquid bears a strong resemblance to the formation of petroleum. The description of such a formation over many years, at a time when the formation of petroleum was unknown, is without doubt another proof that the Qur'an is the revelation of Allah.




ISLAM AND SCIENCE: FORMATION OF PETROLEUM IN HOLY QURAN

The Relativity of Time




Today, the relativity of time is a proven scientific fact. This was revealed by Einstein's theory of relativity at the early years of the 20th century. Until then, people did not know that time was a relative concept, and that it could change according to the environment. Yet, the great scientist Albert Einstein openly proved this fact with the theory of relativity. He showed that time is dependent on mass and velocity. In the history of humanity, no one had expressed this fact clearly before.




With one exception though; the Qur'an included information about time's being relative! Some verses about the subject read:



"They ask you to hasten the punishment. God will not break His promise. A day with your Lord is equivalent to a thousand years in the way you count."
(The Qur'an, 22:47)
"He directs the whole affair from heaven to earth. Then it will again ascend to Him on a Day whose length is a thousand years by the way you measure."
(The Qur'an, 32:5)



"The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a day whose length is fifty thousand years."
(The Qur'an, 70:4)



In some verses, it is indicated that people perceive time differently and that sometimes people can perceive a very short period of time as a very lengthy one. The following conversation of people held during their judgement in the Hereafter is a good example of this:
"He will say, 'How many years did you tarry on the earth?' They will say, 'We tarried there for a day or part of a day. Ask those able to count!' He will say, 'You only tarried there for a little while if you did but know!"
(The Qur'an, 23:12)



The fact that the relativity of time is so clearly mentioned in the Qur'an, which started to be revealed in 610, is another evidence that it is a holy book.
