The document summarizes the Quranic references to the earth being like a carpet and responds to the suggestion that this implies the earth is flat. 1) The Quranic verses describing the earth as a carpet spread out are not complete, as later verses say it is spread so that humanity can travel upon it along spacious roads. 2) A carpet can be spread upon a spherical surface, like a globe, so this does not necessitate a flat earth. 3) Other Quranic verses reference the earth being spread out as an expanse, but do not imply flatness. The shape of the earth is actually described as egg-shaped, matching modern science.
