1) The document discusses scientific miracles found in the Quran related to astronomy, including references to the Big Bang theory, formation of stars from nebulae, orbits of heavenly bodies, roundness of Earth, layers of Earth and atmosphere, origin of iron in space, roles of the sun and moon, and potential end of the universe in a "Big Crunch". 2) It provides verses from the Quran and explanations of how they correspond to modern scientific discoveries, such as describing the heavens and Earth as initially "sewn together" then "unstitched", and heavens having "cyclical systems". 3) The document aims to show how 14th century scientific knowledge in the Quran supports its divine

2. QUR’AN
"A book which we have revealed to you
(Muhammad) so that you may lead the people from
out of the darknesses into the light by their Lord's
leave to the path of the All-Mighty, the
Praiseworthy."
(Qur'an, 14:1)

4. Astronomy in Century 6
In some part of the World
Only observations
Earth is sphere and Center of universe
In Arabia
Earth is flat
Mountains support the sky above
[1]

5. Creation of Universe (SCIENCE)
Big Bang theory states universe
has a beginning
came to existence from
either nothingness (Open Universe)
or some point with zero volume and
infinite mass (Closed Universe)
is expanding
[2]

6. Creation of Universe (QUR’AN)
“He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth.”
(Qur'an, 6:101)
“Do those who disbelieve not see that the heavens and
the earth were sewn together and then We unstitched
them and that…..”
(Qur'an, 21:30)
“And it is We Who have constructed the heaven with
might, and verily, It is We Who are steadily expanding
it.”
(Qur'an, 51:47)

7. Creation of Heavenly Bodies
(SCIENCE)
 stars form from clouds
of gas and dust
(nebula)
 gravity causes the
cloud to collapse and
spin
 central disk becomes
the star
 other lumps on the disk
becomes the planets
[3]

8. Creation of Heavenly Bodies
(QUR’AN)
“He placed firmly embedded mountains on it, towering
over it, and blessed it and measured out its
nourishment in it, laid out for those who seek it-all in
four days. Then He turned to heaven when it was
smoke and said to it and to the earth, "Come willingly
or unwillingly." They both said, "We come willingly.” ”
(Qur'an, 41:10-11)
 “dukhanun” (smoke): a warm body of gas containing mobile particles
connected to solid substances

9. Orbits and Rotating Universe
(SCIENCE)
 Orbit: The cyclic path
traversed by
heavenly bodies
 Everything moves
along an orbit
 Planets
 Comets
 Stars
 Galaxies

10. Orbits and Rotating Universe
(QUR’AN)
“[I swear] by Heaven
with its cyclical systems”
(Qur'an, 86:11)
“By the Heaven with its
oscillating orbits ”
(Qur'an, 51:7)
 “hubuk”: spin

11. Round Earth
“He has created the
Heavens and the Earth
for Truth. He wraps the
night up in the day, and
wraps the day up in the
night.”
(Qur'an, 39:5)
 Takwir: to make one thing
lap over another

12. Earth with Layers
“It is Allah Who created the
seven heavens and of the
earth the same number, the
Command descending down
through all of them, so that
you might know that Allah
has power over all things and
that Allah encompasses all
things in His knowledge.”
(Qur'an, 65:12)

13. Atmosphere
“We made the sky a preserved and protected roof yet still they
turn away from Our Signs.”
(Qur'an, 21:32)
 Atmosphere protects from
 intense ultraviolet rays
 freezing cold of the space
 meteors
 Magnetic field protects
from radiation

14. Mystery of Iron
“And We also sent down iron in which there lies great
force and which has many uses for mankind… “
(Qur'an, 57:25)
 The atom iron comes from outer space
 Iron in the center of Earth
 Without iron
 no atmosphere or ozone or hydrosphere
 no protective magnetic field
 no oxidative metabolism

15. The Sun, the Moon and the Star
“Do you not see how He created seven heavens in
layers, and placed the moon as a light in them and
made the sun a blazing lamp?”
(Qur'an, 71:15-16)
 “nooran”(light): light-reflecting, bright
 “sirajan”(lamp): a constant source of heat and light
“It is the star that pierces through darkness! “
(Qur'an, 86:3)
 "thaqib“: shines and pierces the darkness with light: self-consuming
and burning

16. The End : Big Crunch (SCIENCE)
 Theory for Closed Universe
 The expansion will stop
 The universe will collapse on itself
[4]

17. The End (QUR’AN)
“That Day We will fold up heaven like folding up the
pages of a book. As We originated the first creation so
We will regenerate it. It is a promise binding on Us.
That is what We will do.”
(Qur'an, 21:104)
