Explosion of the oldest star in the universe



Recently, scientists monitored one of the stars, which is located on the edge of the visible universe …

Recently, scientists monitored one of the stars, which is located on the edge of the visible universe, and because of the explosion of the star it became possible to see the radiation emitted from it, but does the Quran talk about it? Consider the following..

Scientists monitor the oldest star can be seen so far

In a precedent, which is unprecedented, enabling scientists of space at Harvard University, Edo Berger, from monitoring the explosions of gamma rays released by a giant star older than 13 billion years, making it the oldest thing scientists can see in the history of the universe.

Berger has indicated that the explosion took 10 seconds only, so as to enable scientists to monitor the light output for the explosion, which occurred 13 billion years ago, after the passage of 600 million a year on the origins of the universe.




This star exploded before the passage of 95 per cent of the current age of the universe, and is therefore able to offer something astronomers detects it until today. The star is named GRB 090423, larger than our sun about 30 to 100 times, and when his demise was launched it released a power a million times more than the power of our sun.

This was confirmed by the researcher that scientists long thought that after the universe was born six hundred million years, there was a giant star, but "we needed a proof", which is available now after the detection of that blast, which occurred before long.

Berger emphasized that in the next few years scientists can determine the age of galaxies at any stage in the life of the universe was formed, and so accurate, thus ending all differences and differing theories on this matter

The blast, which took 13-billion years to reach its rays to the earth, had been monitored by the moon, "Swift" satellite of the Department of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), in the observatory "Gemini" Hawaii.




Exploding stars is one of the most certain facts in the universe, and Qur’an tells us about the end of the stars in several verses, in a time when people look at the universe that it is eternal and cannot be eliminated!

Comment on this scientific discovery

we always say that the Koran does not contradict the certainty of science, and everything reveals that scientists should find a Quranic miracles attested to this Qur'an, and was preceded in all scientific areas, which is what we are trying to prove by the scientific substantiation. Therefore, we sum up what can be seen at specific points as follows:

1-The fact that the explosion and the end of the stars tolled by the Quran at the time no one knows anything about this topic, but it was thought that the universe is found, and will remain so-star and its planets and the sun and moon. But corrected in the Quran says: (and the star when it goes astray what your companion and debauch) [Star: 1-2]. And says: (everything will perish except his face to judge, and to Him you shall return) [Stories: 88].

He also says: (If the stars were blurred) [Mursalat 8:]. In another verse Almighty says: (if the sun * If the stars fall) [altakwer: 1-2].

2- Scientists say that the star exploded 13 billion years ago (Of course, these accounts are calculated by human and the real number is known only by Allah), so the scientists cannot know the ******** of the star and where its fate, so Allah the Almighty swear by the stars site as a great oath, he said: (I swear by the ********s of stars * It is a great oath, if you know * that the Holy Quran)[Alwaqiaa- 75-77].

3- Scientists say that these stars were a way in the past for the guiding people to go at night in the darkness of the desert or the sea, but today, using these stars for guidance to the fact of the universe and its history and its development and it is here where new meaning to the verse: (And the stars they are guided)[ alnahel : 16].

4 - Scientists confirm that, but for these stars was not possible to know the truth and the beginning of the emergence of the universe, and therefore these stars subservient to study, research and discovery, and the Almighty said: (and the stars subservient by His command, His is the creation and commandment Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Worlds) [Alaraaf: 54]. The stars geared to guide people in the night, and geared to them to learn the secrets of the Universe.

5- In space flight and in particular away from the planet fail all the means in orientation, and can go only depending on the stars and their ********s, so keep these stars and the way to go in outer space, no matter how developed by the media, and here we find new meaning to the verse: (which is what you make all find the stars in the darkness of the land and sea have detailed Our revelations for people who know) [alanam: 97].

The last prayer is praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds

Joseph brothers and the number of planets





Is there a scientific miracle in the story of our master Joseph, peace be upon him, concerning the number of planets in the solar system? And is it true that there are only eleven planets?…
An alleged miracle had spread lately about the number of the planets in the solar system and that the Quran had pointed out to it in His, the Almighty, speech on the tongue of our master Joseph, peace be upon him: "O my father! Verily, I saw (in a dream) eleven stars and the sun and the moon - I saw them prostrating themselves to me." (Yusuf: 4). so what is the fact behind this matter?
I say my brothers and sisters that some people rush in giving the word "miracle" on any phenomenon that he sees or believes, and the believer is wise and clever and he has to make sure of the truth of the information before spreading or believing it. The noble verse is not necessarily pointing the number of planets in the solar system as our master Joseph saw eleven planets and Allah, the Almighty, had not informed us that there are no planets except eleven in our solar system; rather, these planets are symbols for the brothers of our master Joseph, peace be upon him.
One of the western scientists who deeply studied the Universe and Galaxies, and after doing statistical study for the number of galaxies and stars in the Universe and with the probability of the presence of other planets outside the solar system: the number of planets in the Universe that are similar to our planet is more than the number of stars in our galaxy, even there are thousands of billions or may be more!!
Therefore, we can not limit the number of planets to eleven only, as the number of planets rotating around the sun is ten including the earth, and if we exclude the earth we find it nine, and may be the scientists will discover other planets in the solar system because we are unable yet to move out of the borders of the solar system.

This is the solar system that Allah had estimated for us, and it is composed of the sun and ten major planets in addition to number of moons rotating around them, thousands of asteroids, millions of stones that navigate around the sun in a controlled system, where there is no collisions, disorder or troubles, but rather an estimated system that shows the ability of the Creator, all praises to Him.
And therefore, our information remains little, even if the scientists discovered that the number of the planets in the solar system is eleven, this does not invite us to say that the Quran specified this number before 14 centuries as the scientists may discover more planets, and we can give the following advices:
1. The noble verse " I saw (in a dream) eleven stars" does not talk about the number of the planets but it talk about the number of Joseph brothers, and the planet is a symbol for the brother in the dream, while the number 11 symbolizes the number of Joseph brothers. And dreams come symbolized or coded as we know.
2. The number of planets rotating around the sun is unknown, we have known 10 of it and the scientists are still discovering more. And there are billions of planets spread in the universe and the number is not limited to eleven.
3. Any information should be clarified before spreading it through the internet as a response to His speech, all praises to Him: “So ask the people of the Reminder if you do not know.” (7: Al Anbiya'a). Because we do not want the scientific miracles in the Quran to be an entrance for the suspicious and disbelievers to criticize this great religion.

Does the Dark Matter really exist?





Scientists are competing to discover the Dark Matter and they assure the existence of this matter surrounding the universe …
Scientists are competing to discover the Dark Matter and they assure the existence of this matter surrounding the universe. Can this Dark matter be considered as the "Heaven" which was stated in the Quran? And is this consideration allowed in terms of Islamic legislation?
This question was asked to me by one of the honored brothers and I'd like through it to clarify the reality of the Dark Matter which is one of the discoveries of the twenty one century.
The scientists have studied the Universe with its stars, dusts, galaxies and smoke, but they have found out that the motion of these galaxies does not commensurate with its mass and attractiveness. Therefore, they have assumed the existence of a dark or obscure material that is referred to as the Dark Matter. Researches concerning that Dark Matter had started since quarter a century and it still going on.
Scientists discover everyday new facts about the Dark Matter and its nature. The most important among these discoveries is that it is distributed in the universe by more than 96%, which is very high percentage.
This leads us to understand that what we do not realize by sight is much more than what we realize by sight, this was stated in the Holy Quran as a divine sword: "But nay! I swear by all that ye see* And all that ye see not * That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger". (38-40 Al Haaqqa).
This verse of the Quran is a hidden signal for the presence of matters which we can not realize by sight and the discovery of the Dark Matter is an evidence for the honesty of the Divine swears.

Taken photo by the Hubble Space Telescope for a giant ring of the dark matter, it is 5 billions years far from us and its diameter is 2,6 million light year.
But what we are focusing on here is our suggestion in previous article that this Dark Matter can be considered as the "Heaven" stated in the Holy Quran. This consideration had confused some of our readers as how can this Heaven be invisible while Allah the Almighty is saying in the Holy Quran: "Have they not then observed the sky above them, how We have constructed it and beautified it, and how there are no rifts therein?" (6 Qaf).
This is an obvious divine order to look into the sky, but how we could look into something invisible?
In reply to this, I can say that if we scrutinize the verses that talks about Heaven, we will find out that they are either talking about structure as " how We have constructed it" or what do these Heavens have in it as: "Say: Behold what is in the heavens and the earth! But revelations and warnings avail not folk who will not believe." (101 Yunus). So, this is invitation to watch the Heaven which includes stars, planets, etc.
If we looked into the sky or Heaven at night, we will see the stars and will not see the matter of Heaven, and if we looked into it during the day we will see the reflected rays by the atmosphere. Therefore, we do not see the real matter of Heaven but we do see the contents of the Heaven.
Accordingly, the idea of assuming the Heaven as the Dark Matter is a logical idea and is not prohibited in terms of Islamic legislation because diligence is imposed upon Muslim, if his diligence was correct he will be twice rewarded and if his diligence was wrong, he will have one reward.
Moreover, we can not close the door of diligence for understanding the Quran verses in order not to fall into error because the miracles of the Quran have no end and the Muslim is ordered to continue searching, speculating and contemplating the Quran verses.
Regarding the Dark Matter, if the science proved a fact that counteracts the Dark matter, it will not be a trouble because we make diligence and speculation of the Quran verses in terms of the scientific facts and any error will be referred to our limited abilities whereas the Holy Quran is superior above all kinds of errors or imperfections.

Explosion of a star at the edge of the universe




Every second, there is an explosion of a star somewhere across the universe; the scientists …
Every second, there is an explosion of a star somewhere across the universe; the scientists realize such explosions long time after its occurrence. Let us read this scientific release and comment on it:
In a new scientific release (according to CNN) a huge stellar explosion took place halfway across its path in the universe had shattered the record for the most distant star that can be seen by the naked eye.
This massive star, which belongs to unknown galaxy, exploded and released Gamma Rays; the explosion light took 7.5 billion years to reach the earth, and its afterglow reached its peak brightness this Wednesday morning.
One of the satellites of NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), called "Swift" detected Gamma rays released from the burst, while one of the managers in NASA, Neil Gehrels, informed that there has been no burst with such afterglow brightness and form such deeply far distance. He added that seeing the afterglow by naked eye was clear enough and that NASA did not receive any reports about possibility of seeing the burst which longed for less than an hour by astronomy amateurs.

The Astronomer at Pennsylvania State University, David Borouz, said that the astonishing about this event is not the size of the burst but the immense distance of the star, he added that the star was in the halfway across the visible universe.
Gehrels explained that the star before explosion was 40 times larger than the Sun and that the severity of the explosion resulted in vaporization of all nearby planets.
It is remarkable to say that the distance 7.5 billion Light Year is thousands of times greater than the distance of the farthest ****** you can see by the naked eye which is 2.5 million Light Year, noting that the Light Year is approximately 10 million million Kilometers.
From this release we can set the following conclusions:
1. The universe is much more larger than what we can expect, when the scientists think that they have reached the visible universe, they find out new stars that make them believe that the universe is no longer visible and is much more larger than their predictions, in this regard Allah be He exalted says: "Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of mankind; but most of mankind know not" (57: Ghafir).
2. Scientists said that this explosion took place billions of years ago, whereas the burst light had reached the earthy recently. Moreover, the scientists could not determine the ******** of the star for the time being which confirmed that the real ******** of the stars is not known to anyone except Allah Almighty. Thus, Allah swears by the places of the stars that the Quran is sincere: "Nay, I swear by the places of the stars * and lo! That verily is a tremendous oath, if ye but knew * that (this) is indeed a noble Qur'an "(75-77 Al Waqia).
3. Allah had stated in the Quran the fact of stars collapse and he swears by it that the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is on the right path at the time when nobody knew about this fact: "By the Star when it setteth*Your comrade erreth not, nor is deceived; * Nor doth he speak of (his own) desire. * It is naught save an inspiration that is inspired*" (1-4 An-Najm).
Therefore, my beloved brothers, as Muslims we have to read any scientific fact or release faithfully and make use of such releases to develop and enlarge our perception of the universe, not only to gain knowledge but also to be more faithful and certain by deeply diving into the secrets of the universe, heaven and earth unlike the western civilization which made no use of these facts and this civilization which will avail them nothing in the day of judgment as their knowledge and science is based on unbelief. This is what Allah had stated in the Quran: "Say: Behold what is in the heavens and the earth! But revelations and warnings avail not folk who will not believe" (101:Yunus)
We, hereby, ask Allah be He exalted to make us among Men of Understanding whom He had mentioned in the Holy Quran: "Lo! In the creation of the heavens and the earth and (in) the difference of night and day are tokens (of His Sovereignty) for men of understanding, * Such as remember Allah, standing, sitting, and reclining, and consider the creation of the heavens and the earth, (and say): Our Lord! Thou createdst not this in vain. Glory be to Thee! Preserve us from the doom of Fire. (190-191 Al Imran).

A collapsing star at the Galactic Center




The Scientists observed a Stellar Collapse at the Galactic Center, we might find marvelous Quran signals in the verse " By the Star when it goes down…

Scientists of Astronomy and galaxies started examining new information coming from the center of the galaxy which contains our planet, these information are primary data which can further enlighten the core of this massive galaxy. Scientists also start analyzing these interesting data which was obtained form continues and studied observation by one of the largest telescope on earth, Gemini North at Gemini Observatory in Hawaii on the Pacific ocean.
These interesting pictures show a stellar collapse with very huge cosmic cloud at the core of the Milky Way galaxy. The scientists believe that these pictures will bring about new discoveries that will change the current understanding of the galactic center.
This weird star, which has the taxonomic name ARS 8, according to the scientists, was a mass of aggregated gases until North Gemini approached it. The optical techniques used in it showed that this picture is for stellar collapse in cosmic gas and dust cloud near to the galactic center.
The revelation about this star is considered a victory in the efforts of understanding the nature of the galactic core through the scientists knowledge for how the stars and the cosmic gases are moving relatively, also the intensive study of the component of gas clouds, the circumstances and the climatic conditions surrounding the star means that new scientific method in searching for the details of milky way center will be developed later.
The galactic center, according to the scientists, is an interesting and weird place, as it is possible to observe self rotating rings of cosmic gases and stars that are rapidly rotating around black hole enormously massive by cosmic measurements.

A picture of highly brilliant star moving in the vast universe, scientists said that all stars moving rapidly and that there is no quiet star as was thought in the past. Allah be He Exalted stated that in the Holy Quran: "They float each in an orbit." (40 Ya Seen). All Praises to Allah. Source of picture is NASA.

A Picture of the brilliant galaxy M101, scientists said that Universe has billions of galaxies which in turn have billions of stars, all these stars rotate and move, some of them collapse into the galactic center, some hit other stars and there is more things which nobody knows except Allah, the Exalted.
The Surprising about this revelation is that the Holy Quran had pointed out the fact of Stellar Collapse and star rapid rotation, Allah. Almighty say: " By the Star when it goes down * Your Companion is neither astray nor being misled.* Nor does he say (aught) of (his own) Desire.* It is no less than inspiration sent down to him* He was taught by one Mighty in Power," (An-Najm – 1-5)
These verses mentioned many features that all the stars do have such as: stellar collapse, rapid rotation, all stars run out of fuel then collapse and implode. Therefore, the word "goes down" in the first verse can exactly express these phenomena.
Accordingly, Allah Almighty, had sworn by this phenomenon which we realized recently that his Apostle, Muhammad peace be upon him, does not speak of his own desire and that every word he said was inspiration from Allah, as if Allah, the Exalted wants to say to every suspicious with the honesty of Muhammad's message that the time when you discover these phenomena will come and your observatory will detect pictures which you will never doubt for stellar collapse.
As long as you never doubt these amazing phenomena which you discovered nowadays and was not known at the time of Quran revelation, you ought to realize that the teller of the Holy Quran is Allah, the Exalted.
Finally, we can say that such researches and studies can serve as tangible evidence on the honesty of the Holy Quran and the message of Islam.

Traveling to the Past Between Science and Quran




In this article, we’ll learn about an important fact in the Qur'an, that is, every one of us will see his actions, present in front of him ….
In this article, we’ll learn about an important fact in the Qur'an, that is, every one of us will see his actions, present in front of him, at the Day of Resurrection, and this truth has been denied by atheists, and we will see how modern science confirms the possibility of seeing the past, but it cannot be changed...
What a lot of objections made by polytheists through which they deny the Day of Resurrection! They didn’t imagine how Allah will resurrect them after they become dust, did not imagine how Allah will hold them accountable for their actions, what is more, how they will see their job!
The Qur'an is a book of the facts, every verse of its verses includes a scientific fact that must be discovered, as long as we meditate and contemplate and think over them. And in one of these verses Allah says: (And the Book was placed; and thou see the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded) therein; they will say, "Ah! Woe to us! What a Book is this! It leaves out nothing small or great, but takes account thereof!" And they found all that they did, present in front of them: And not one will thy Lord treat with injustice.) (Sûrat Al-Kahf verse 49).
What drew my attention is that the verse speaks about the Day of Resurrection, which is an event will occur in the future, however, we find that the verbs came in past tense!!! (And the book was placed), (And they found all that they did, present in front of them), these acts done in the past even though the speech is about the Day of Resurrection, so what is the secret?
After thinking long, I found that the Qur'an is the Book of absolute truths, and therefore Qur'an is talking about absolute things. Time, for us we humans, is divided into past and future, but for Allah Almighty, the Creator of time, there is no past or future. And Allah sees the past and future. Why not, and he is the creator of them?
Therefore, when the Qur'an says (And the book was placed), it means that this has occurred but we did not live these moments yet, and when the Qur'an says (And they found all that they did, present in front of them), it means that the atheist will live these moments; furthermore, he HAD lived them, but does not know that!
And the question is: Is there any scientific proof of the sincerity of this speech?
Today, Scientists are talking about the possibility of traveling to the past! Relativity theory developed by Einstein in the early twentieth century confirms that the time does not pass in blink of an eye, but it is moving quickly at a cosmic speed (i.e. the speed of light) which is 300 thousand kilometers per second, and it is the maximum speed that can be reached in this real world.
When the speed of any ****** reaches this cosmic speed, the time will stop at this speed. That is, we live the present moment only, and we don’t see the past or the future. But when we move faster than the speed of light we can see the past, and that’s what is confirmed by scientists, today.
Therefore, one could see his past but cannot change it! The praise to Allah! the Quran speaks this fact accurately and says: (And they found all that they did, present in front of them) means that every person will see his work as if it occurs at the moment, but he cannot changed it, and this is what scientists say today when they talk about travel to the past, that man can see the past but cannot change it!
What is the theory of relativity?
Most of us hear about the theory of relativity, but we may find a large number of people do not know what is this theory? Very briefly, everything in this universe is relative; for example, we live in a land we see fixed, but in fact it rotates very rapidly on its axis, and spins faster around the sun. And it's washed rapidly along with the solar system. And the solar system, including land and us, are moving at high speed with the galaxy in a specific direction that Allah has ordained. And the galaxy is also moving with a group of galaxies around very quickly…. And also, a number of movements that we do not realize or watch, but science has exposed it to us.
There is no ****** that we can compare the speed with. Everything is moving and walking in a specific and calculated path and this is what we find a reference to, in Qur’an when it says: (and all swim along, each in its rounded course) (Sûrat Al-Anbiya' verse 33).

The laws governing the movement of things will change when its speed approaches the speed of light, and therefore laws are relative, and depend on the speed of the moving ******. If we assume that a spacecraft was able to travel at speeds close to the speed of light, all the laws that we know will change, and time will slow down so that a person living in this spacecraft will live long for thousands of years (this is science fiction of course).
There is an important thing in the theory of relativity, which is, we cannot see any incident occurring now at the same moment, but it takes time related to how far the incident is to us. If a star exploded away from the Earth thousand light years away, if exploded now, we will not see this explosion before a thousand years and that is the time required for the light to travel from the star to the Earth.
Types of time
Accordingly, all what we see is in the past, so we do not see the present moment as long as there is a time separating us from it, even if small, so on the Day of Resurrection this law will disappear and we’ll see things around, as it is happening now: (And they found all that they did, present in front of them).
In order to see the present moment we must be moving at light speed, but if we want to reflect the direction of time we'll just have to be faster than the speed of light to see the past!
And we can draw the following scheme:
Greater than the speed of light

Equals to light speed

Less than light speed

Speed

Re-vision of the past

The present

The past

Time


Allah sees these three times at the same moment, so we find the Qur'an often speaks about the future in the past tense! For example, Allah Almighty says: (To the righteous, the Garden was brought near * and to those straying in Evil, the Fire was placed in full view * and it was said to them: “Where are what ye worshipped”) (Sûrat Ash-Shu'ara' verses 90-92). Although the verses are talking about the Day of Resurrection, that is, the future time, it came on the past tense: (was brought near, was placed in full view, was said). We, humans, wait until these things occur, but Allah does not wait, but sees everything has happened really, so Allah Almighty says: (Say: None in the heavens or on earth, except Allah, knows what is hidden: nor can they perceive when they shall be raised up (for Judgment) * Still less can their knowledge comprehend the Hereafter: Nay, they are in doubt and uncertainty there-anent; nay, they are blind thereunto!) (Sûrat An-Naml verses 65-66).

A galaxy away from us millions of light years, we see in this picture, the shape of the galaxy before millions of years, and no one knows its current form but Allah, and the galaxy might exploded and died millions of years ago, but we do not see this, because the ray of light that comes to us from this Galaxy cut billions of kilometers until it reached the earth. Scientists, therefore, stresses that if we walk faster than the speed of light, we will catch this ray of light and outrun it and see the past!
The reference ESO
Laws will change on the Day of Resurrection

This talk does not mean that people would move faster than the speed of light on the Day of Resurrection to see their past, but the Day of Resurrection will have its own laws that we do not realize, but we emphasize that this is scientifically possible.
The proof that the Day of Resurrection has its own laws that differ from the world's laws is the saying of Allah Almighty: (One day the earth will be changed to a different earth, and so will be the heavens, and they will be marshaled forth, before Allah, the One, the Irresistible ;) (Sûrat Ibrahim verse 48). And He says: (Thou wast heedless of this; now have we removed thy veil, and sharp is thy sight this Day!) (Sûrat Qaf verse 22).
Since the way of vision is sight and light rays, the vision of an event takes time, as we said, this is in the world, and on the Day of Resurrection It's totally different because the laws will change and alter, and then a person can see things that cannot be seen in this world, and that is the meaning of the verse (and sharp is thy sight this Day).
The miracle of Mi’raj (the tortuous rising)
Here, too, we remember the incident of Mi'raj, when the Holy Prophet, peace be upon him, ascended the sky and saw the fire torturing its companions, he saw them in reality, but unbelievers denied this idea, because their limited minds didn't imagine it.
Therefore, Allah Almighty said about this miracle: ((His) sight never swerved, nor did it go wrong! * For truly did he see, of the Signs of his Lord, the Greatest!) (Sûrat An-Najm verses 17-18). And this indicates that the Holy Prophet had seen ,really seen, the miracles in the sky at the night of Mi'raj, in contrary to what some claim that he has seen it in a dream!
It is strange that there is a scientific miracle in the word (Mi'raj), it was unnamed "ascend" or flight "or otherwise, but the Holy Prophet called this miracle Mi'raj (i.e. the tortuous rising), because the movement of objects in space can never be straight, but they have to be tortuous, because of the dense gravitational fields around galaxies and its groupings.
I have in mind in this attempt by some skeptics of the Book of Allah, in this attempt they wanted to write a book like the Qur'an, but the errors appeared directly even in the title of this book! Because they called it: "The True Criterion", according to ******** dictionaries, the word (Criterion) means "that which distinguishes between right and wrong, and therefore we may not say: “True Criterion” or “False Criterion” because the word “Criterion” by itself is to distinguish between true and false!
Look, dear reader, how these people made a mistake in the title of the book, and they have the techniques of the twenty first century, scientists, money and digital computers. And the question is: How could an illiterate man in the seventh century compose a big book (as claimed by atheists) like the Qur'an without committing any scientific or linguistic error, if he wasn't the Messenger of Allah?
Clarification
the information contained in this article absolutely doesn’t mean that scientists will be able to see the future. No one knows the unseen except Allah who says: (With Him are the keys of the unseen, the treasures that no one knows but Him. He knows whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth, nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered), but is (inscribed) in a record clear (to those who can read)) (Sûrat Al-An'am verse 59)
But scientists can imagine that the knowledge of the unseen is possible, but reaching this knowledge is not necessary, just as they can imagine that the vision of the past is scientifically possible, they don't have to see it, therefore this research is an evidence that the Qur'an does not talk about things that are not logical , but the Qur'an's speech is within scientific logic, and this is an evidence of the sincerity of Allah's saying about his book: (Had it been from other Than Allah, they would surely have found therein Much discrepancy) (Sûrat An-Nisa' verse 82).
Here we have to pause
If the Holy Prophet had brought things from himself, then he could have made mistakes in naming the Mi'raj miracle, why did he call it "Mi'raj" (i.e. the tortuous rising) in line with the universal truth, that is, the tortuous movement of the objects in space?
If the Prophet wanted to invent falsehood against Allah as some skeptics claim, why does he attribute everything in this Qur'an to Allah? Why is he talking about the future in the past tense? And how did he make sure that people will accept from him this new uncommon style?
If Muhammad, peace be upon him, wanted to lie to people, how would he be aware of that he will be last of the prophets? How did he assure that no prophet will come after him, if he wasn't truly the prophet of Allah? And how did he assure that Islam will spread to all parts of the world: (It is He Who has sent His Messenger with Guidance and the Religion of Truth, that He may proclaim it over all religion, even though the Pagans may detest (it)) (Sûrat As-Saff verse 9).
Finally
We ask Allah to give the best reward to all who contribute in providing a new idea through which we can provide useful and helpful article, and one of those people, dear brother "Mohammed Lujain zein" which drew our attention to this idea, and we would like to ask all readers to contemplate the Qur'an thoroughly and try to write articles about the wonders of the Quran, or at least provide useful ideas, in order to receive reward from Allah. Because it’s him who said: (And whatever good ye send forth for your souls before you, ye shall find it with Allah) (Sûrat Al-Baqara verse 110).

The polar star is the compass of the sky





The blessings around us are so many but we don't realize it nor we thank God for it, one of these blessings is the polar star. It's marvelous…
One of His mercies is that God bestowed everything for us... He bestowed the rivers, seas, the plants, the animals and He even bestowed the stars as a mean to know the directions. One of these stars is the polar star.

This is a photo of the polar star by which many people were guided in the darkness of the seas and lands. Scientists say that the polar star is huge and it spreads light which’s stronger two thousand times than the sun light, but this polar is not lonely because God created a pygmy star (Ab) that is close to polar star to console its loneliness, God also created another star far from it (B) thus the polar star forms trio system which cycles and flows in a magnificent system.
This polar star is far about 430 light- years, i.e. the emitted light of this star takes 430 years to reach the earth, if we suppose that this star is going to explode today then the earth inhabitants are going to see this event after 430 years!

This photo reveals the polar star close to a meteor, we always see this star in the north, and God bestowed it for human as a compass to help them in their journeys at night whether in the deserts or seas.
God bestowed for this polar star a specific track that accords with the cycling movement of the earth , i.e. the star is on the same verge as earth ,so we don't see it cycling around the earth like other stars but we see it stable ( even though it moves like the other stars ), God chose the right distance for the polar star from the earth to be seen clearly at night, and chose its suitable size and lighting , without it human wouldn't be able to see it nor be guided by it for thousands of years!!
All these features have made this polar the compass of the sky by which human are guided and they know the directions during traveling in seas, our astronomers till now use this polar to situate the position of the other stars , the pilots and astronauts use it too.
This grace is mentioned in the Quran: God says (And marks and sign-posts; and by the stars (Men) guide themselves.)(Al Nahl 16). So can you appreciate this great grace? Glory to my God! Despite these verses are clear, we still see those who deny God's blessings and refuse the presence of the mighty creator, for those God says: (Is then He who creates like one that creates not? Will ye not receive admonition?*If ye would count up the favors of Allah, never would ye be able to number them; for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.)(Al Nahl 17-18).

Cosmic rivers





It is a new scientific discovery in which the westerners use the exact Koranic term. Let us read about these rivers of stars that flow in our galaxy and recognize the greatness of this religion…

American scientists recently discovered a long river of elegant stars streaming in a thrilling and striking way. This river is 76000 light years distance from us. This river includes around 50000 stars! The scientists assure the multiplicity of such rivers which spread in the universe containing stars flowing and running in a way similar to the movement of the water of rivers on the earth.
If we visualize their discoveries, we notice that they use the word “stream” which means “run” which is a word the Quran uses to express the movement of the sun. And as we know, the sun is a star, and there are more than a hundred thousand million suns flowing in our galaxy all in a precise system. Allah (SWT) describes the movement of the sun saying “And the sun runs on its fixed course for a term (appointed). That is the decree of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing” [ya-sin: 38].
In a study that was published in the “Astrophysical Journal Letters” magazine of March-2006, the owner of the discovery Carl Grillmair, an American researcher working for the California Institute of Technology’s Spitzer Science Center, caught my attention for his attempt to find a connection between the rivers in the sky and the rivers in the earth.

An image from NASA assures the existence of numerous rivers of stars in our galaxy. Glory to Allah!
In his research, Carl Grillmair says that studying the stars’ rivers is very necessary to know the way the galaxies were shaped, exactly like studying the earth and the mountains to recognize how rivers were formed. What is amazing is that when Allah (SWT) spoke regarding the sun, the following verse was talking about the earth’s rivers and mountains! He Almighty says: “He has subjected the sun and the moon each running (its course) for a term appointed) [Ar-Rad: 2], He then said in the following verse: (And it is He who spread out the earth, and placed therein firm mountains and rivers” [Ar-Rad: 3].
From here we recognize that speaking of the flowing of the sun, the moon, and the rivers are among the Quranic signs which proves that this book can’t be a human made; it is Allah’s (SWT) words, the lord of humankind. Scientists say that no one could see or predict these cosmic rivers before 2006 and that the scientists used a new technology referred to as “matched filtering”. The discoveries are still in the preliminary steps, and no one could have predicted stars running in the sky before the twenty first century.
This proves that the Quran preceded the scientists in using the description “running” regarding the sun. That’s because the description is precise, matches the reality, and is scientifically acknowledged. Let’s look at this amazing Quranic description with reference to the running sun and the running ships in the seas: He almighty says: “See you not (O Muhammad) that Allah merges the night into the day, and merges the day into the night, 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* That is because Allah, He is the Truth, and that which they invoke besides Him is falsehood; and that Allah, He is the Most High, the Most Great* see you not that the ships run through the sea by Allah’s Grace that He may show you of His signs? Verily, in this are signs for every patient, grateful (person)” [Luqman: 29-31].
Scientists say that the movement of the stars in the galaxy including the sun is to some extent similar to the movement of a ship in the sea. They each run and swim in currents similar to waves, and that the movement is ascending and descending. Allah (SWT) 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” [Ya-Sin: 40]. The word “float” is scientifically very accurate.
Since that the scientists are studying the rivers of the skies; if the scientists found these terms inaccurate, they wouldn’t use them. This provides evidence for the exact match between the Quran and science. Allah (SWT) says: “Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely, have found therein many a contradiction” [An-Nisa: 82].

New Vision of Time





We introduce our fellow readers a new vision of time, universe and physical laws that Allah has placed to maintain the universe and to keep it steady.


Firstly, I would like to tell you that this theory is totally inspired from Quran, most of which criticizes the nowadays prevailing ideas, which are considered by scientists, global constants.

After a long scrutiny and reading in the Book of Allah, it shows that there is no constant in the universe; this is where the idea came in. Time changes and continuously evolves so as laws of physics and materials. We find this consistent with what the Almighty says:

"Have they not pondered upon themselves? Allah created not the heavens and the earth, and that which is between them, save with truth and for a destined end. But truly many of mankind are disbelievers in the meeting with their Lord." [AR-RغM: 8]. And He says in [verse 11] of the same Surah: "Allah produceth creation, He reproduceth it, then unto Him ye will be returned."

Based on this verse, the creation starts from a scratch and evolves, then will return as it was, i.e., there is a "life circulation" of every creature in the universe. It is reality that time is considered a creature, so is the laws that govern the materials as well as the materials, all of which has started from a scratch and will return to zero point after all. It is only Allah who remains!

The research's idea came in 19 years ago. In 1990, I was following up new scientific discoveries in physics at the same time of memorizing Quran. I stopped eagerly at a great Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, wherein he confirmed that the distance separating us from the first heaven is 500 years, and the skies is 500 years away from each other.

But the numbers that I used to read about the distance that separates us from galaxies were much larger.Nowadays, scientists believe that lights of the galaxies take more than 20000000000 (twenty thousand million) years to reach us! From here the idea aroused into my mind: the speed of light is inconstant unlike what the scientists believe, and this is based on Relativity Theory, and then the idea developed in my mind, and found that the physical laws governing the universe (such as the law ofgravitation and other laws) are also inconstant.

Then, the origin idea developed to a theory which summed up that large cosmic distances are not like small ones, i.e., there is a change in place or space. In other words, we cannot continue measuring the distance endlessly, but there is a specific distance where the universe terminated at. Also, there is a specific time that cannot be bypassed, and there is a specific speed in the universe that cannot be surmounted.

The new theory derived from Quran and Sunnah (Prophet Muhammad's sayings)

Of course beloved ones, we have a lot of creative ideas, so as many young Muslims do, but because of our "scientific backwardness". We do no have the means to present these ideas but through Western scientific journals which are basically written from an atheist point of view. This is logically impossible; [as Westerns separates between religion and science]. Personally, I refuse to write any scientific research if not linked with religion and that Quran is the origin source. Moreover, we cannot separate between science and religion at all. Furthermore, we do not find those who can adopt such theories derived from Quran and Sunnah!!
Therefore, post this theory to assure the people who criticize scientific miracles mentioned in Quran, that we are not just sitting and waiting for the west to reveal the truth. Truth is, we seek, strive and try to discover these facts according to our abilities, and our reference is unaltered Quranic verses, which is contrary to the Western scholars who have nothing but what they see and touch.

Time Evolution

Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him said: "The division of time has turned to its original form which was current when Allah created the Heavens and the Earths. The year is of twelve months, out of which four months are sacred: Three are in succession Dhul-Qa' da, Dhul-Hijja and Muharram, and (the fourth is) Rajab of (the tribe of) Mudar which comes between Jumadi-ath-Thaniyah and Sha ban." In this Hadith, there is a straight and strong indication that time is changing, not constant. What does that mean? It means that the "time circulation" is changing quickly and continuously varies through the passage of years. Also, we can apply this Hadith according to the theory of "time circulation" which means that time has the same mechanism of water circulation called the (hydrological cycle).
However, the hydrological cyclehappens every year, but the "time circulation" happens over billions of years. Consequently, this signifies that the speed of light is not constant as believed which equals (300 thousand kilometers per second), but it is constantly changing with the passage of time. For example, we can not suddenly reach hundred kilometers from zero; in other words, you have to start from a scratch, speed up, slow down and stop! So as the light; when Allah created it; it began at the speed of zero and then evolved until it reached its speed now, then it shall slow down to zero.

In order to understand this theory, we should look to the time as a "living being" that has a beginning and an end!! This is referred to in holly Quran in a great verse: "He is Who hath created you from clay, and hath decreed a term for you. A term is fixed with Him. Yet still ye doubt!" [AL-An'آM: 2]. It is meant here that the term is the time, which means that Allah created the term to ******* creatures. He also applied that upon time. This will mark the Day of Resurrection, where either be immortal in Hell or Heaven.

Henceforth, we can say that time started at zero at the beginning of universe, then it accelerated until it reached the maximum speed. It will begin to slow down until it reaches zero again. This marks the new idea which I wish to raise through this research. Thus, the speed of light at the beginning of the universe was at zero point, then accelerated to its critical limits, going towards slowing down until it stops and fades like the rest of the creatures, and this is what we find in the verse: "Everything will perish save His countenance. His is the command, unto Him ye will be brought back." [AL-Qasas: 88].

Laws Evolution

The physical laws governing the universe, such as the law of Universal gravitation is not constant. At the beginning of creation of the universe, there weren't any laws. They were created at the same time the raw material created, by which the Universe was created; (you could say ****phorically at same time of the big bang, and I like to call it the global Big Crunch). Then these laws developed but are constantly changing.

We have to look to physical laws as a "living being" that is developing and has a circulation as well as the time. For example, the gravity law which requires any two objects arise between them in gravitational force inversely proportionalwithdistance square between them.This law is not fixed, and at the beginning of the universe, it was not existed at all. Allah created it with material and time, and will expire when it's time. "On the day when the earth will be changed to other than the earth, the heavens (also will be changed) and they will come forth unto Allah, the One, the Almighty." [IBRAHخM: 48].In this verse, we find a reference to the changing nature of materials, where there is a changing nature of the laws that govern this illustration.

Space Evolution

To complete this theory, we must apply it on place! Or what scientists call "space".Originally, the place existed not at the beginning of creation, therefore it originated from a very small point and began to grow and evolve and still expanding. This is stated in [AZ-ZآRIYآT: 47] "We have built the heaven with might, and We it is who make the vast extent (thereof)."

The place has a specialcirculation that I can call it,"place circulation", i.e., that the place started from a scratch and will return to, according toan accurate universal circulation that proves the greatness of the Almighty Allah. "The Day when We shall roll up the heavens and a recorder rolleth up a written scroll. As We began the first creation, we shall repeat it. (It is) a promise (binding) upon us. Lo! We are to perform it." [AL-ANBIYآ: 104].




The new idea to beprovedin this research is that everything in this universe is variable, and that Allah's words are not changeable. We can represent the visible universe by three axes: the first represents the place, the second represents the physical laws governing the universe, and the third represents the time. There are equations governing the change of place, time and laws. Law I: change of law/change of time (T /L), and the second law is: change of place / change of time (P/ T). Everything in this universe is the same; Man grows up, changes, and then dies. This applies to time, mathematical laws and the place as well.

Mathematical equations required to be proved

We have to look for the rate of change in, "time flow" over billions of years. We can put the following simple equations:

Law I: rate of change of physical laws to change of time.

Act I: rate of place change to rate of time change.

If we have the ability to learn about these laws, then it would be easy for us to re-calculate the age of the universe, life on Earth and the life of man on Earth,and other figures which have been measured on the basis that laws are constant, not changeable.




This figure represents the change rate of light speed with the passage of time; where it started from a scratch, evolved and accelerated until it reaches the maximum and will then slow down until it stops.We may now stop in the middle of the road after the maximum speed during phase of time, slowing until the terminal which is the Day of Resurrection. This change to the speed of light and other laws will lead to a re-correction of all known physical laws.

Conclusion

If this research becomes true, what will that mean? It will mean a lot, and will enumerate in the following points:

1 - If the speed of light is not constant, then it means that all measurements of cosmic universe such as the size of universe and ******** and speed of galaxies and how far they are located from us... All these numbers will change and new figures will show up; more accurate than the numbers we have today. In other words, the age of the universe won't be 13 billion years, as estimated by scientists today, but will be less than that.

2 - All the numbers that determine the age of Earth, the age of monuments, the age of rocks, history of Man and the existence of living things... All these numbers will be changed and new numbers will come up and will be less than the current figures. In other words, scientists will have to get into their accounts the changes in laws of physics, place and time.

Finally, the reader might wonder: Can physicists agree with this theory? or there will be critic. I say: "based on this current knowledge, we can not criticize to prove this theory, as it remains under tests and study until we have mathematical evidence. But I for one, and as Moslem I see that it goes with what is mentioned in the Holy Quran and Sunnah. Oh Allah, I seek refuge in You from the knowledge of no benefit.

Multiplicity of suns and moons in the universe





The Quran spoke regarding the sun and the moon, however, scientists proved that the universe contains billions of suns and moons, is there a koranic sign concerning this occurrence?….
Some of the readers ask regarding the meaning of Allah’s almighty saying: “And from among His signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Prostrate yourselves not to the sun and the moon. But prostrate yourselves to Allah who created them, if you (really) worship Him” [Fussilat: 37].
Allah almighty tells us that every thing prostrates to him. The Imam Al-Tabari says in explaining this verse: And among Allah’s proofs for his creations and signs for his uniqueness are the differences in night and day and how each of them follows the other, and the sun and the moon…etc. We notice from this verse that Allah almighty said: “created them” in plural format, which indicates the multiplicity of suns.
This verse speaks regarding the sun and the moon. Who ever reads this verse, he would think that the word must be in plural format of two things; however the word as mentioned in the Quran came in a plural format of a group of more than two; why is that?
The Quran, my dears, contains hidden signs that don’t appear immediately but must wait until the developing science to discover scientific and universal facts which will enable us to understand the verse correctly. Allah almighty tells in this verse regarding the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. These are some of Allah’s creations He commanded us to think about. However, Allah (SWT) commanded us to prostrate to him and not to prostrate to the sun or the moon. In the verse, “Prostrate yourselves not to the sun and the moon. But prostrate yourselves to Allah who created them (plural format of more than two), if you (really) worship Him”, the word created them wasn’t in plural format of two which proves that there is more than one sun and more than one moon!
During the revelation of the Quran, 1400 years ago, no one knew about the existence of moons and suns rather than our moon and our sun. However, the new discoveries in astronomic science proves the existence of at least hundred thousand million sun like our sun and these are the ones exist only in our galaxy, what if we counted up all the suns in the universe?! Of course, each star we see in the sky is a sun!
Scientists also proved the existence of planets other than the earth. There are planets that are similar to earth and some of them have moons revolving around them exactly like the moon revolves around the earth. The scientists assure that the universe contain more than billions of moons!

This virtual image is for our galaxy “The Milky Way”. It is a galaxy that contains more than hundred thousands of stars, and each star resembles the sun in its job. Scientists say that this galaxy also contains billions of planets and billions of moons. All that in one galaxy, so what if we counted up the number of suns and moons in the universe which consists of more than hundred thousands millions galaxy!
The miracle sign
If we visualize the noble verse, we notice that it marks the existence of numerous suns. Allah (SWT) says: “prostrate yourselves to Allah who created them (plural format of more than two).” Scientists also say that there are numerous of moons that revolve around billions of planets in far away galaxies. This indicates that the Quran gave hidden signs regarding the large quantity of suns and moons fourteen years ago before the scientific discovery.
From here we realize the amazing koranic sign concerning the multiplicity of suns and moons in Allah’s (SWY) saying: “prostrate yourselves to Allah who created them (plural format of more than two)”.
Glory to Allah who created everything, in one word, there is a miracle for who understand and comprehend its meaning. Allah almighty said: “Nay, but they, the clear Ayat (signs) are preserved in the breasts of those who have been given knowledge (among the people of the scriptures). And none but the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers) deny Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc))” [Al-Ankabut: 49].
