Secrets Of Quran Miracles

The earth is speaking


!

Do you believe that earth transmits continuous sound frequencies but we don't hear it? That is the most recent discovery in the earth science. What did the Qur'an say about that? ….
"Earth speaks" I found this title in one of the international websites which is www.discovermagazine.com , in fact that title is an ordinary title in this era because scientists had discovered that every thing in the universe transmit sound frequencies.
But at the time of the descending of the Qur'an that matter wasn't known at all as human at that time didn't imagine that earth is transmitting vibrations, but the Qur'an told us about that issue in many verses which were explained by many explainers that Allah almighty gave earth the ability to speak so it became able to speak. God says Then He rose over (Istawâ) 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- verse 11) also God says about the Pharaoh and his chiefs after He be blessed and exalted drown them And the heavens and the earth wept not for them nor were they given a respite.)(Sûrat Ad-Dukhân- verse 29).
If we read saying of the explainers we can see that they believed in the ability of earth and heaven to speak in a real voice and also in their ability to cry.
One of the most important space websites which is www.space.com had published an article with a title "sky is speaking". Mark Whittle, an astronomer at the University of Virginia found that universe in its early beginning was transmitting sound frequencies which were caused by the sudden expansion of the gases, the Qur'an told us about that in the holy verse: (Then He rose over (Istawâ) 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- verse 11).
The scientists had discovered that these frequencies are in the Inaudible
Range and it has an important mission. As earth transmit frequencies in a range less than 20 hertz (less than 20 vibrations in second) before earthquakes, volcanoes and before the tsunami phenomenon.
In 2004when the tsunami hit beaches of Indonesia which caused hundreds of thousands of casualties, and before it occurs dogs run away and elephants in the zoo started to grumble and shout , scientists explained that as the animals hear these vibrations and felt with fear.
The scientists found that the elephants talk with each other in an inaudible voice also whales speak in these frequencies which spread through the water for thousands of kilometers! By the use of these frequencies, scientists are attempting to make an early detection for earthquakes and natural disasters.

Before the occurrence of volcanoes and earthquakes to be as a warning for animals to run away from the area of disaster, also God supported these animals with systems to hear these frequencies and to analyze it to take the necessary action , but the arrogant human till now didn't invent such system to predict with earthquakes and volcanoes. Glory to Allah!
Look how God be He exalted had exploited every thing for us, He says And has subjected to you all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth; it is all as a favor and kindness from Him. Verily, in it are signs for a people who think deeply.)(Sûrat Al-Jâthiyah-verse13).Many thanks to Allah for all of these graces.

The receding of the Aral Sea: when we change the natural system

When human plays with the nature which was created in a precise system by Allah, as a result, that system will be disturbed in the form of disasters and drought…

God be He exalted and blessed created the earth in a balanced system, and one of the great verses is: (And it is He who has let free the two seas (kinds of water): this is palatable and sweet, and that is salt and bitter; and He has set a barrier and a complete partition between them) (Sûrat Al-Furqân- verse 53).

Somebody may think that this verse is only to remind us with the graces of Allah, or as a scientific fact which was mentioned by the Qur'an before the modern science. But this verse is considered to be a good reminder with the importance of the area of "mouth of the river in the sea".

So, the holy verse refers to God's creation of that system to ensure a happy life for us, and to continue the movement of life and to continue the seas and rivers. But the human broke this rule and converted mouths of rivers from into the seas in order to supply the water to the Farmlands as human believed that that work is right…therefore what happened?.

Seas and rivers started to disappear!!That is what happened with theAral Sea one the world's fourth largest inland body of water. It started to recede and to drought. Look at the following satellite photo.

A satellite photo which was taken (in 2009) by the European space agency shows the boundary of the Aral sea "in green color", and at the top in the square another taken photo (in 2005) as the sea was much larger than today….look at what the human made by the different wrong activities which polluted the environment. The source: ESA

We remember the following holy verse when we see that photo as God says Say (O Muhammad): "Tell me! If (all) your water were to sink away, who then can supply you with flowing (spring) water?")(Sûrat Al-Mulk- verse 30).

Glory to Allah! If the scientists know that holy verse and they were aware about the importance of the area of the mouth where rivers meet with seas …this tragedy wouldn't happen. As we see a whole sea to disappear and to drought. Human prevented to feeding that sea by the two rivers which were used to supply it for thousands of years without any disorder, but now this area is suffering from strong Sand storms and huge environmental pollution!! Some researchers made a suggestion to retransfer the Downstream of the river to the sea with a huge cost that is up to millions of dollars! Glory to Allah what might happen if they left God's system without any intervention?

Also the environmental changes are caused by the wrong behavior of human by throwing dirt and by the excess luxury in everything…which caused rivers to drought. As all small rivers became drought in the last few years, the big rivers will be the same.

We can remember the holy Hadith by prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him) when he told us about a sign for the imminence of the day of resurrection when he told us that one of these signs is the drought of the Euphrates River. Indeed, the amount of water in that river became too little and the river started to recede and the coming years will show us more and more receding for that river because of the drought and the global warming phenomenon.

Here we can ask a Question, who told prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him) that the Euphrates River will recede? Or how could he know that the area of the meeting of rivers and seas is important? Allah almighty told him all of these unseen facts to be a proof that he is sincere.

Emergence of seas

Scientists were asking this question for long time, how the seas were formed? And from where did this amount of water come?

The most accepted theory to explain the emergence of water from the practical and scientifically point of view can be summarized that the earth at the beginning was throwing lava from the inside, these lava were dashing in the atmosphere so that it was releasing millions of tons of the heated water vapor that ascend in the air till it touch the higher layers of the atmosphere to condense to make the heavy rains.

Hence, the water in earth was emerged from the underground of the earth which means that God be He exalted and blessed take out its water from the inside of it, God says And after that He spread the earth *and brought forth there from its water and its pasture*and the mountains He has fixed firmly* (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle.)(Sûrat An-Nazi' at- verse 30-33).

Look at the sequence of the cosmic events, at the beginning the earth was a flammable celestial body which was separated from the sun and then it started to turn around it, the turning of earth , separation from the sun and then the earth was spread till it got its spherical shape are what the Qur'an told us in His saying And after that He spread the earth), in this verse a sign for the sphericity of earth as the word spread came from the roundness of the egg. During the cooling operation the water vapor started to ascend from the lava and that what the Qur'an told us in His saying and brought forth there from its water and its pasture).

So the water got out from the earth to start the formation of life and to bring the different plants. At that time the mountains hadn’t been formed yet as it took thousands of millions of years to form the mountains!

When the earth started to become cold, the earth crust started to be formed and that crust started to move because it stands on the lava (thousands of degree of heat)!as a result of these movement the different parts of the crust started to collision with each others to form the mountains. Mountains have roots which extends to thousand of meters inside earth crust as it work as a balance for the earth to fix it during its turning like the anchor for the boat, so God saysand the mountains He has fixed firmly* (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle.) (Sûrat An-Nazi'at- verse 30-33).

The scientists say that the water was descended from the sky to be lodged inside the earth which formed seas and rivers, therefore God talks about the descending of the water from the sky and also from inside the earth. Scientists say that both facts are right

Now the Question is: what may happen if the salt of the seas is able to evaporate like the water of the seas? God be He exalted put the law of gravity to enable life to continue. As the salt is heavier than the water so it can't ascend in the air ….but the water can, because the density of water vapor is less than the density of the air. Scientists calls it the "Archimedes' principle".

This law which is related to the density of the materials guarantees the evaporation of water and to keeping the salt in the seas to ensure the descending of the pure water from the sky, God says :(Then tell me about the water that you drink * Is it you who cause it from the rain-clouds to come down, or are We the Causer of it to come down?*If We willed, We verily could make it salt (and undrinkable): why then do you not give thanks (to Allah)?)(Sûrat Al-Wâqi‘ah- verse 68-70).

Therefore, the scientific miracle in the Qur'an is not only limited to mentioning the scientific facts but it includes the actual sequence of these facts. There is no contradiction between the modern science and the words of Allah. This is evidence that the creator of the universe is the one who descended the Qur'an.

The Qur'an speaks about the due measure of water

Let us live with some verses about Hydrology, to see that the scientific facts testify on the sincerity of the Qur'an, …

I started to study hydrology during my first years of study in university; I stopped many times to think in the complication of that science. It took long time from the scientists to discover the physics rules concerning that science, but there are some vagueness concerning many questions about that science.

I studied many theories in that field. But I didn't imagine that I may find these scientific facts in a book which was released from hundreds of years! I read researches for scientists who started their studies at the beginning of the twenty century when they got the scientific tools and the Laboratory analysis; they used to stay in their laboratories for many years to get a single scientific fact about water.

Therefore, discovering the rules which ******* movement of fluids is considered to be a huge jump in understanding the water around us, any one who think in these rules must say "Glory to Allah" who says( The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily He is Well-Acquainted with what you do.)(Sûrat An-Naml-verse 88).

God be He blessed and exalted put the physic rules in the water to be evidence that creation of God is precise, and to believe in the grandeur of the God.

According to the modern science for fluids especially the water, the scientists confirm that the water is revolving a precise and accurate circle. And there are physical rules to ******* every drop of water starting from the time of the descending from the sky till it reaches us. All stages are in precision not at random.

If we look attentively, we can see a precise system which testifies that the creator is great, also we see fixed physical rules as an indication for an organizer who knows everything (God be He blessed and exalted). God says ( Everything with Him is in (due) proportion *All-Knower of the Unseen and the seen, the Most Great, the Most High.)(Sûrat Ar-Ra‘d- verse 8-9)

Here we can see the koranic miracle as God says ( And who sends down water (rain) from the sky in due measure) (Sûrat AZ-Zukhruf- verse 11).hence we can see how God be He exalted made a link between sending water from the sky and the word (in due measure) which means a precise and calculated system.

The one drop of water contains five thousand million of molecules!!! God had organized this precise system in a due measure. God says ) And we sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure) (Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn- verse 18) which means in a calculated and precise system. That is the same as what the scientists tell us about the precise and accurate system of hydrology on earth.

God be He exalted had mentioned the water in the Qur'an in many verses such as:

1. The Qur'an told us about these huge water tanks which are under the ground of the earth which are more than the sweet water in the rivers, God says( and it is not you who are the owners of its stores [i.e. to give water to whom you like or to withhold it from whom you like].)(Sûrat A-Hijr- verse 22).this sentence refers to the operation of storing the water, as this information was unknown by anyone at the time of the Qur'an.

2. The Qur'an told us about the long time that the water stay in the ground without spoiling , God says( and We gave it lodging in the earth)( Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn- verse18). In this sentence a sign that the water stays for a long time in the ground(Lodge) despite the existed impurities materials, Microorganisms, fungi, salts and minerals underground but the water stay clean and pure. That is Allah who put the rules to do all of that.

3. The Qur'an told us about the role of the mountains in purifying the water , this information was unknown by anyone at the time of the descending of the Qur'an , as the taller the mountains the purer the water. God says ( And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains, and have given you to drink sweet water?)( Sûrat Al-Mursalât- verse 27).

4. The Qur'an told us about the calculated and precise operations which ******* the descending of water and its cycle, God says: (And who sends down water (rain) from the sky in due measure) (Sûrat AZ-Zukhruf- verse 11).

Finally my dear reader, don't you see that the Qur'an spoke about everything? God says ) And we have sent down to you the Book (the Qur’an) as an exposition of everything, guidance, a mercy, and glad tidings for those who have submitted themselves (to Allah as Muslims).)(Sûrat An-Nahl-verse 89).

Mountains and Rains

The Qur'an linked between mountains and the water we drink; nowadays scientists discovered a link between both of them, let us read ….

Fourteen century ago human was looking for the clouds and rains as a strange phenomena which made by Gods, therefore they used to pray for those Gods asking for rains, in Europe people were looking to the rains as a given livelihood by Gods!

But when the Islam came, it corrected many ideas and showed people the right way and guided them far from the wrong ideas, as the Islam talked about rains as a scientific phenomenon, as God who is the creator of the universe and everything and He is who put the rules of descending the rains. He confirmed in two holy verses on the existence of precise rules which ******* this phenomenon, He says And we sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure, and we gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, we are Able to take it away.)(Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn- verse 18) also God says: (And who sends down water (rain) from the sky in due measure, then we revives a dead land therewith, and even so you will be brought forth (from the graves).)(Sûrat AZ-Zukhruf- verse 11).

It means that the Qur'an is the first book to put a scientific base for the phenomenon of descending the rains, and to keep myths and superstitions away from minds of people. But there is an important thing that scientists had discovered the role of the mountains to forming clouds and rains.

Prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him) wasn't living in such environment, but he lived in a desert environment where no human is able to predict with any kind of relationships between mountains and water of the rain, this is an evidence that the Qur'an is an inspiration from God to His prophet (peace be upon him).

When the wind drives the ascending Molecules of water from the seas, the mountains contribute in the ascending operation to raise it up exactly like the ice skating race as the skater tries to reach the top of the mountain and when he reach it in a high speed he jumps in the air so that his speed increases to reach high distance, without the mountain he wouldn't be able to rise in the air.

There is a relationship between mountains and clouds, so we see the tops of mountains are covered with clouds all the year, because the design of these mountains which works as a bumper for the air to slide on its surface, that design helps in the acceleration of the loaded air by water vapor and helps in cooling it to form the clouds.

Here we can touch a scientific fact that the mountains have a vital role in the formation of clouds. Hence we can find that the sweetest kind of water is in the high mountains.

Therefore the taller the mountain the more amount of clouds are formed to produce rains or ice which dissolve and leak through the mountains to form fresh and sweet springs.

Scientists say that springs are formed in near of the mountains and its water is fresh and palatable, God says: (And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains, and have given you to drink sweet water?) (Sûrat Al-Mursalât – verse 27).

Water of springs which come from the high mountains passed through many filtration operations, so that the high mountain works as a filtration machines.

Without the mountains, even a one drop of water wouldn't be descended! That may seem so strange but this is the reality because of the vital role of the mountains in forming the clouds. Clouds are responsible for the descending of rains and also in forming ice which dissolves to make fresh and sweet water.

Scientists confirm that despite the advanced development in technology, human is unable to imitate such operations, therefore God says: (And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains, and have given you to drink sweet water?) (Sûrat Al-Mursalât – verse 27). In this verse God be He exalted and blessed made a link between the tall of mountains and the sweet water. Here we have to stop and ask a question: who knows at that time that the mountains have a vital role in the descending of rains and filtration of water?

Also, there is another relation between the tall of the mountain and the amount of the descended water ,the taller the mountain the more amount of water is descended and also purer and fresh .Therefore the Qur'an linked between the high mountains as God said(tall mountains) and the sweet and fresh water as God says(sweet water).

As a result we can see that all verses of the Qur'an are compact with no contradiction and are compatible with the new science, isn’t it an evidence that the Qur'an is a book which was descended from God be He exalted and blessed?

(And say: "My Lord! Increase me in knowledge.") (Sûrat Tâ-Hâ- verse 114)

The Qur'an speaks about the distilled water



(And it is He Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings, going before His Mercy (rain); and We send down pure water from the sky ….

The holy Qur'an is the first book to distinguish between types of water and to classify it according to a scientific classification, in this article we will see that the Qur'an told us about the rainwater and called it "the pure water", scientifically it was proved that rainwater is sterilized, disinfected and free of impurities.

God be He exalted says: (And it is He Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings, going before His Mercy (rain); and We send down pure water from the sky)( Sûrat Al-Furqân- verse 48).I looked attentively at this verse and I found that it tells us about the distilled water. Scientists discovered that the water we drink contain a lot of matters. As the cup of water which we think it is pure contain millions of Bacteria and viruses, also it contain some mineral matters such asIron, copper, aluminum, sodium, magnesium ,calcium, and some Organic materials such as carbon and dust.

Also scientists discovered that we can purify that water by heating it in the boiling degree which is 100 degree centigrade, and then we gather the steam,condense it and cool it. Then we can get a cup of distilled water, they say that the best kind of distilled water is the rainwater but that is before it mixes with the impurities in the air.

Pollution is the result of this civilization so that rainwater cleans the air because its ability to absorb the matters such as sulfur,poison lead, etc……….

After the descending of rainwater on the ground it leaks through the soil and between the rocks to mix with the minerals and the found salts in rocks to get the alkaline taste, therefore taste of rainwater is unpalatable but taste of springs water is palatable.

Today, scientists say that the rainwater is the same as the distilled water as it has some characteristics such as its ability to cleaning dirt and to sterilize any thing. God says about that water and we send down pure water from the sky).

Specifications of rainwater

Here we can mention some of the characteristics of the descended water, it is distilled water because it is a result of the vaporization of water from the seas and then it had been condensed in form of clouds then the rains descend. This kind of water can remove dirt form the human skin and also it is a sterilized material which can be used in medicine and it is free of bacteria and viruses. Also it can absorb gases and dust from air so that it cleans the air.

The Qur'an summarized all of these characteristics in only one word which is (and we send down pure water from the sky) as the word" pure" in the Arabic ******** means the ability to remove dirt and impurities as in "AL-Moheet dictionary".

Hence, we find the Qur'an tell us about these characteristics as God says:

((Remember) when He covered you with a slumber as a security from Him, and He caused water (rain) to descend on you from the sky, to clean you thereby and to remove from you the Rijz (whispering, evil-suggestions) of Shaitân (Satan), and to strengthen your hearts, and make your feet firm thereby.) (Sûrat Al-Anfâl- verse 11). This verse tells us about rainwater as God says" (water (rain) to descend on you from the sky,) also He tells us about the purifying characteristic in the water in saying (to clean you), also God tells us about the power of energizing human which is in the water in His saying (and make your feet firm thereby).

The Qur'an is the first book to speak about the purifying characteristic of water as we find that all human books don’t differentiate between the sweet water, pure water and the palatable water.

In front of these realities we can ask the atheists who claim that they can think rationally and that they don't need a God(be He blessed and exalted) in their life, who said the expression of (pure) during talking about the rainwater as this word hadn't been mentioned about water of river or seas?. Who tightened rules of physics to ******* clouds and rains? That is Allah who says: (Say (O Muhammad ("Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth?" Say: "(It is) Allah." Say: "Have you then taken (for worship) Auliyâ’ (protectors) other than Him, such as have no power either for benefit or for harm to themselves?" Say: "Is the blind equal to the one who sees? Or darkness equal to light? Or do they assign to Allah partners who created the like of His creation, so that the creation (which they made and His creation) seemed alike to them?" Say: "Allah is the Creator of all things; and He is the One, the Irresistible.") (Sûrat ArRa‘d-verse 16).

Human is programmed to live on earth



A new study confirmed that human was created to live on earth, and there is an impossibility to live in the space at any other planet, because the immune system is negatively affected by absence of gravity, let us read….

Immortality is the dream of humanity for long time but no one had achieved that dream, as death was the strict law so God says Everyone is going to taste death, and we shall make a trial of you with evil and with good. And to us you will be returned.)(Sûrat Al-Anbiyâ’- verse 35). Also being in the space was another dream by human but that dream was achieved. On the other hand the dream of living outside earth in the space will not be achieved, God be He exalted says Thereof (the earth) we created you, and into it we shall return you, and from it we shall bring you out once again.)(Sûrat Tâ-Hâ- verse55).

A group of Swiss scientists discovered that absence of gravity has a negative effect on some cells of the immune system, as the functions of these cells may stop or the body may lose ******* over it, which may facilitate infections by some diseases.

Space biologists confirm that absence of gravity for long time causes Nausea and face swelling due to the disorder of the blood circle and also causes the retreat of ratio of calcium in bones. On the other hand absence of gravity leads to the difficulty of sleeping which causes unbalance in the brain and to difficulty in urinating.

Prof Oliver Olrich a specialist in the biotechnology of space and the head of the research team in the institute of anatomy in University of Zurich confirmed on the previous results and also he said that they have reached these results through simulation experiments for the absence of gravity in the space. The negative effect is not limited to the immune system but it covers the entire body. The research team concentrated on the cells of the immune system in the brain as it gets affected so much by absence of gravity which hit the brain and facilitates its infection by viruses.

A photo for Prof Oliver Olrich during a Weightlessness experiment, he confirmed that pilots can't stay for long time in mobile space stations between planets for researching purposes, as NASA and the European agency intend to launch a spacecraft that will carry pilots whom will stay for many years in the space. The immune cells of the brain has an advantage which is the early warning which may leads to uncalculated dangerous in case of the exposure to bad effects.

The new challenge for the research team is to find out the reason which causes the damage in the immune system cells, Prof Oliver believe that the secret behind that is the component of the cell itself as somehow it may get affected by the change in gravity.

Scientists realized the importance of gravity for continuation of life on earth, and also that life outside our planet is impossible. Despite the scientific development, there are many secrets of life which are vague in front of the scientists. Prof Olrich confirm that in spite of the advanced development in science but some phenomena stay without explanations especially the related to plants, animals and human.

How can we read this scientific study?

Every progress in science means more approach to the certain facts which must meet with the Qur'an, God be He blessed and exalted says Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein many a contradiction.)(Sûrat An-Nisâ’- verse 82).Here we can see that scientists confirm on the impossibility of living outside the earth. The Qur'an told us about that as God says ( Allah) said: Get down, one of you is an enemy to the other [i.e. Adam, Hawwâ’ (Eve), and Shaitân(Satan)] On earth will be a dwelling-place for you and an enjoyment for a time * He said: Therein you shall live, and therein you shall die, and from it you shall be brought out (i.e. resurrected))(Sûrat Al-A‘râf- verse 24-25).

In another verse, God be He blessed remind us with his graces which He made as earth is suitable for life on it and He designed mankind to live only on it, He says:

(Allah, it is He who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape and made your shapes good (looking) and has provided you with good things. That is Allah, your Lord: so blessed be Allah, the Lord of the ‘آlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists)) (Sûrat Ghâfir- verse 64).

Look at this sentence (the earth as a dwelling place) which is a sign for the role of gravity in the stability of human on earth, and without this gravity life would be disappeared from long time. Thanks God for this grace, God says: (See you not (O men) that Allah has subjected for you whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth, and has completed and perfected His Graces upon you, (both) apparent (i.e. Islamic Monotheism, and the lawful pleasures of this world, including health, good looks, etc.) and hidden [i.e. One’s Faith in Allah (of Islamic Monotheism) knowledge, wisdom, guidance for doing righteous deeds, and also the pleasures and delights of the Hereafter in Paradise]? Yet of mankind is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge or guidance or a Book giving light!)(Sûrat Luqmân- verse 20).

Sources of water

There are many signs around us and in the universe which testify that the Qur'an is sincere, one of these signs is that the scientists discovered sources of water which is compatible with verses of the Qur'an, let us read….
For many decades people were wondering about the source of water, but the answer took long time. Today, we live in an era when all scientists tell us that wars of the future will be for the water.
These wars will occur because of the scarcity of pure water due to the environmental pollution. Therefore scientists are searching for new sources of water. In this article we will see that the Qur'an told us about the source of water in earth, also about the future source of water.
There is a notice that in petrology there are some kinds of rocks which allows water to penetrate through it. One of the strangest things I read is that rocks of Granite despite its strength and cohesion but it allows water to go through it within very small Pores.
This characteristic enables the descended water from the sky to be stored inside the earth after passing through these pores, without this characteristic water wouldn't be able to leaking into a great depths below the surface of the earth.
Can life continue without water?
The Qur'an talked precisely about that matter and also referred to the source of water ( And we sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure, and we gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, we are Able to take it away.) (Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn- verse 18). This verse tells us that the source of the water inside the earth such as the groundwater is the rains, this is scientifically proven!
Also there is another verse as God be He exalted says: ( And We send the winds fertilizing (to fill heavily the clouds with water), then cause the water (rain) to descend from the sky, and We give it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its stores [i.e. to give water to whom you like or to withhold it from whom you like]) (Sûrat A-Hijr -verse22). For many years people believed that water in depths below the surface of the earth had been formed inside earth or it is existed inside earth from the old ages, and no one got the knowledge that this water was stored inside from the water of rain. But the great Qur'an told us about this scientific reality and God confirmed to us that He lodges this water by His ability and is purified by these layers of rocks to be drinkable so that God says(We give it to you to drink) and without the mercy of God and that He exploited the physics laws for us, water wouldn’t be lodged inside earth and life wouldn’t be continue.

Scientists confirm that earth is the source of the water, God says And after that He spread the earth* and brought forth there from its water and its pasture.)(Sûrat An-Nazi' at- verse 30-31). There are many verses in the Qur'an confirming on that and all of these verses are compatible with the new science, this is a proof that the Qur'an is sincere.
The strangest thing is that dust is full of Pores but it doesn’t allow water to pass through it because of a very distinguished characteristic which is the ability of dust to mixing with water to enable plants to grow. God says concerning that:
( And you see the earth barren, but when we send down water (rain) on it, it is stirred (to life), and it swells and puts forth every lovely kind (of growth).) (Sûrat Al-Hajj- verse 5). Glory to Allah who mentioned everything in His book.
Also, the Qur'an told us about the source of springs in the earth, God says: ( See you not that Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, and causes it to penetrate the earth, (and then makes it to spring up) as water-springs)(Sûrat Az-Zumar-verse21). This verse tells us that the source of springs is the water of rain and that is the opposite to the belief of some people who believed that the source of these springs is the sea!!
Nowadays, scientists are looking for a new source of water for the future, and they confirm that the best source is the high mountains as it saves a huge amount of water. Also the Qur'an told us about that as God says ( And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains, and have given you to drink sweet water?)(Sûrat Al-Mursalât- verse 27).
These are compact verses which testify that the Qur'an is sincere and is matching with the scientific facts, and it is not like what skeptics say that this book is just an ordinary book, if they are right we would see many myths and superstitions in it but we only see what agrees with science. This is an indication that the source of that book is the divine inspiration, read with me this divine challenge ( And this Qur'an is not such as could ever be produced by other than Allah (Lord of the heavens and the earth), but it is a confirmation of (the revelation) which was before it [i.e. the Taurât (Torah), and the Injeel (Gospel)], and a full explanation of the Book (i.e. laws, decreed for mankind) - wherein there is no doubt - from the Lord of the ‘آlamîn(mankind, jinn, and all that exists) * Or do they say: "He (Muhammad( has forged it?" Say: "Bring then a Sûrah(chapter) like unto it, and call upon whomsoever you can besides Allah, if you are truthful!"* Nay, they have belied the knowledge whereof they could not comprehend and what has not yet been fulfilled (i.e. their punishment). Thus those before them did belie. Then see what was the end of the Zâlimûn(polytheists and wrong-doers)!* And of them there are some who believe therein; and of them there are some who believe not therein, and your Lord is All-Aware of the Mufsidûn(evil-doers, liars).)(Sûrat Yûnus- verse37-40).

Great Photos: The Qur'an Describes Night and Day

Through a series of taken photos by satellite, specifically the Area where we can see the night overlaps with the day, we have to look attentively at the greatness of this phenomenon and how the Qur'an told us about it. ….
For many centuries, people believed that earth is flat with no idea that earth is spherical. But holly Qur'an told us about this cosmic reality when God described this phenomenon by using the word ( roll).
Because of the continuous move of earth and if the sun is not existed to ensure needed light for the day also without the spherical shape of earth, "night and day rotation phenomenon "Wouldn't happen.
Night swim along in space
Night and day moves with the same speed and they swim around earth due to earth rotation around itself, God says ( It is He who created the Night and the Day, and the sun and the moon: all (the celestial bodies) swim along, each in its rounded course.) (Sûrat Al- Anbiyaa- verse 33), we have to look attentively at (all swim along, each in its rounded course), as sun has its rounded courseand moon has its rounded course , also there is a continuous and organized move for day and night as a proof that earth is spherical .

Moon rotate around earth in specific orbit and earth rotate around sun in specific orbit, also night rotate around earth and overlap with day .therefore movement speed of night and day is the same as rotation speed of earth around its core.
Night merges into day
Night and day overlaps along a circle surrounds earth in an area where sun set happens on one side and sun rise happens on the other side. God says: ( do not you see that Allah merges Night into Day and He merges Day into Night; that He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law), each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do?) (Sûrat Luqman - verse 29).

This image illustrate night and day on earth , we have to notice that the borderline between night and day is a circle surrounds earth , this circle moves as earth move whereas day moves from point to another till it cover all earth during the 24 hour. This happens every day.

Night surrounds day in a circular shape
The overlap area is not straight or tortuous but it is in a shape of a circle that surrounds earth. God says in holy Qur'an: ( He has created the heavens and the earth with truth. He makes the night to roll in the day and makes the day to roll in the night. And He has subjected the sun and the moon. Each runs (on a fixed course) for an appointed term. Verily, He is the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving.)(Sûrat AZ- Zumar- verse 5). The word roll means that night goes into day in a circular shape like a ball. This verse is a sign that earth is spherical.

Night moves toward west and covers the day from all sides, on the other side of earth the day moves toward east trying to reach the night. This process happens continuously.
The separating area between night and day
The area which separates night from day appears as a thin thread that separates darkness from light. God says ( You can eat and drink until the white thread of dawn appears to you distinct from its black thread) (Sûrat AL- Baqarah verse 187) this verse tells us about a separating area and the dawn in the middle between both of them.

We can see a separating line between night and day and between darkness and light. This line surrounds earth and pass through the two poles
Many differences between night and day
Scientists confirm that there are many differences between area of the day and area of the night in: temperature, amount of falling cosmic rays on both of them, moon effect ( tides) and creatures and plants way of living ….. These differences are very important to continuing life on earth. For example, Plants wouldn't be able to grow without alternation of night and day.
Qur'an told us about that differences, God says ( Behold in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of Night and Day, there are indeed Signs for men of understanding.)(Sûrat AL-Imran verse 190) so this difference is one of God's graces to ensure continuity of life.

Without night and day plant wouldn't be able to grow and life might not be exist

The night covers the day
If we look from outside earth, it is clearly seen that night coves day. Also we can see that earth is surrounded by darkness from all sides. God says ( He brings the night as a cover over the day seeking it rapidly)(Sûrat Al-A'râf- verse 54). If we record earth rotation in a movie and we play it in foreword speed , we will see as if night is trying to catch day but it (night)couldn't precede or to be at the head of it(day) .

The first thing to be noticed by any one looks from outside is the dusky dark that covers everything
Day is a very thin layer
The day layer is very thin as human skin. God says ( And a Sign for them is the Night: We withdraw there from the Day, and behold they are plunged in darkness)(Sûrat Yâ-Sîn - verse 37 ). Let us look attentively at the following photo which illustrate the sickness of the day layer, this layer covers the luminous side of earth. The height of this layer is no more than 100 kilometer but diameter of earth is about 12500 kilometer, so day layer is less than 1% of diameter of earth.

Look at this very thin layer, who knew at time of Qur'an that day withdraw from earth because of its rotation?
Night and day offer free services
Scientists tell us about some interests of night and day alternation such as: to keep temperature stable to fit life on earth, plants growth …so night and day offer free services. God says ( and He hath made subject to you the sun and the moon, both diligently pursuing their courses: and the Night and the Day hath He (also) made subject to you.)(Sûrat Ibrâhîm – verse 33) the word subjected means to do a work without pay (free of charge)

If we look attentively at moon, there is no night and day alternation therefore the dark side of moon is very cold and the luminous side is very hot
Earth moves around itself and around sun in a very organized manner with no defect which may cause disturbance in timing or night and day alternation. God says ( 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)
Finally, we can say that all verses which describe night and day are compiled with the modern science with no contradiction between Qur'an and science facts. It is an indication that this book (Qur'an) is sincere and miraculous

And on the Earth are Signs



God put in earth many signs and asked people to discover it also he exploited it for us to increase our Faith and certainty with our great creator and to see his ability.….

God says ( And on the earth are signs for those who have Faith with certainty * and also in your own self Will you not then see? *And in the heaven is your provision, and that which you are promised *Then by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, it is the truth (i.e. what has been promised to you), just as it is the truth that you can speak.) (AZ- Zariat- verse 20 – 23). God tells us in these great verses about his signs in earth and in ourselves, as this earth was made suitable for us to live on it. Earth is 150 million kilometer far from the sun, therefore if the distance between both of them is far than that we may freeze, also the sun would burn all creatures on earth if the distance is less than that.

Therefore God be he blessed and exalted made earth in the correct orbit to be suitable for our life. Scientists say about earth and our life on it:" earth is in the correct orbit which enables living creatures to live on it, and if it is in the wrong orbit life on earth would never happened."

This sign is considered to be a good reply on people who believe that universe made by coincidence; coincidence couldn't put earth in this accurate distance from the sun and to make earth turns in this appropriate movement. If earth is turning in a speed which is more than its current speed, all creatures would be thrown out in space as gravity couldn't be able to keep people inside earth. God says: (Allah, it is He Who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place and the sky as a canopy) (Ghafir- verse 64)

We know that earth turns around itself to generate day and night, therefore if earth speed is slower than its current speed, night may last for months or years, but God made earth to turn in a suitable speed to suit our life so God made the day to be 24 hour to leave about 8 hours for us to sleep. God be he blessed and exalted made time of the day and night is suitable for us. It is really a grace from God who says : ( and if you count the Blessings of Allah, never will you be able to count them. Verily, man is indeed an extreme wrong-doer, a disbeliever) (Ibrahim- verse 34)

One of God's graces is that earth is in spherical shape with a suitable diameter to fit life on earth .so we neither feel with roundness of earth nor with its curvature as we see it flat and paved. God made its circumference up to 40000 kilometer and this is the most suitable figure to see earth flat. God ordered us to look attentively at these figures and numbers, he says ( Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? *And at the heaven, how it is raised? * And at the mountains, how they are rooted (and fixed firm)? *And at the earth, how it is outspread?) (AL- Ghashiyah) (Verse 17-20)

When scientists went to other planets they discovered that earth is the only planet where you don't feel with any kind of curvature if you stand on it. God says ( And we have spread out the earth: how Excellent Spreader (thereof) are we!) (AZ- Zariat – verse 48)

If we look at moon we notice that it is full of craters and holes which caused by earthquakes and meteors that hit its surface for billions of years, we can see that moon surface is unpaved and twisted so that it is not suitable for life, but God be he exalted and blessed made earth suitable for our life and he always remind us with his graces. He says ( Allah, it is He Who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape and made your shapes good (looking) and has provided you with good things. That is Allah, your Lord: so blessed be Allah, the Lord of the ‘آlamîn(mankind, jinn and all that exists).) (Ghafir – verse 64)

God be he blessed and exalted has created and divided this planet to many layers .for many years people believed that earth is flat and surrounded by sea from all sides and they used to call far seas like pacific ocean and Atlantic ocean " seas of darkness ", recently they discovered that earth is divided to many layers , each layer on the other one.

If we start from the outer layer: there is a very thin layer which is earth crust which extend from 70 to 100 kilometer (differ from area to another) this crust is not one block as it is divided to many plates separated by great fracture which is composed of some great cracks extends to thousands of kilometers which divide earth crust to many plates.

Satellite photos confirm that earth is not one block but it is divided to many plates separated by Common fault which divide earth crust to many plates. God says ( By the sky which gives rain, again and again* and the earth with Faults) (At-Târiq- verse 11-12) this information was unknown at that time when Qur'an descended on prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him). In this photo we see the Ethiopian Fault which extend to thousands of kilometers

Man saw and became able to photograph movement of that fault also plate's movement which moves away from each other. In 2005 scientists observed the Fault which separates the Arab plate that contains Arabian Peninsula and red sea from the African plate that contains Africa continent. They found that African plate moves away from the Arab plate and also they found a group of flooding magma during that moving. these magma freezes to form some kind of rockets.

Qur'an swears with that Fault as God says (by the sky (having rain clouds) which gives rain, again and again. *And the earth with Faults *Verily, this (the Qur’ân) is the Word that separates (the truth from falsehood, and commands strict laws for mankind to cut the roots of evil*and it is not a thing for amusement.) (At-Târiq- verse 11-14)

These plates moves continuously, also mountains moves with it , these moves are measured by satellites ,last year Australia continent moved 73 ml meter toward north east . After this information we have to remember the following verse, God says ( And you will see the mountains and think them solid, but they shall pass away as the passing away of the clouds. The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily He is Well-Acquainted with what you do) (An- Naml – verse 88)

A photo for Andreas Fault, which extends for more than 1300 km, a space is clearly seen that divides two faults, this photo was released recently and no one knew about it when Qur'an was descended. So how this fact is mentioned in Qur'an? The only logical explanation is that Qur'an was descend from God be he blessed and exalted.

After earth crust there is another layer which is the mantle: a dense, hot layer of semi-solid rock approximately 2,900 km thick. The mantle, which contains more iron, magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth.

At the center of the Earth lies the core, which is nearly twice as dense as the mantle because its composition is ****llic (iron-nickel alloy) rather than stony. However, the Earth's core is actually made up of two distinct parts: a 2,200 km-thick liquid outer core and a 1,250 km-thick solid inner core. As the Earth rotates, the liquid outer core spins, creating the Earth's magnetic field.

In the past, scientists believed that earth consists of three layers: crust, core and another layer in between, after that they discovered that the core consists of two layers, then they discovered another layer under the crust .after that they discovered the mantle, which consists of two areas (hot and hotter area). the most recent studies using Seismic Wavesconfirm that earth consists of seven layers

What are the seismic waves? Seismic waves are waves of force that travel through the Earth as the result of an earthquake and it hit earth layers ,so each time it reach a layer it makes a reflection the same as mirror when it exposed to light , therefore scientists knew that earth consists of seven layers . This information was released from the American Geological Agency.

After all of that we may wonder if we know that Holy Qur'an told us about these facts fourteen years ago , God says: (It is Allah Who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven).) (At-Talak – verse 12), and the reason of creating these seven layers will be explained in the verses in underline: (It is Allah who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven). His Command descends between them (heavens and earth), that you may know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah surrounds all things in (His) Knowledge.) (At-Talak – verse 12)

You can imagine what would happen if any one decided to penetrate earth layers inside these magma. In fact no one can think about that due to the high pressure and high temperature that reach thousands degrees centigrade. Qur'an told us about that, God says ( 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 Allah)!) (Ar-Rahmân – verse 33)

God told us that no one can pass beyond earth zones (layers). We have to notice that God says zones not zone as each zone (layer) have a sickness which differs from zone (layer) to another.

What is behind these facts?

We have to ask a question, why did God mention this cosmic reality in Qur'an? Is that to get some cosmic information or to increase our knowledge!!! Let us to look attentively at this verse, God says ( It is Allah who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven). His Command descends between them (heavens and earth), that you may know) (At-Talak – verse 12) , what to know???? Let us continue the verse (that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah surrounds all things in (His) Knowledge.) (At Talak – verse 12).

O, atheist, you are such an inattentive from your God be he blessed and exalted who told you about the seven layers in the sky and the seven layers in earth and today you can see by yourself these seven layers .

Therefore as God be he blessed and exalted told you about unseen things which can be measured by machines, also he (God) knows all of your deeds as he surrounds all things in (His) Knowledge. God says ( that you may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah surrounds all things in (His) Knowledge.) (At Talak – verse 12).
