If these could be added under the rebuttal section, it would be a superb addition !
As'salamu Alaikum dear brother,
Done. I added them to the Rebuttals section of the www.answering-christianity.com/ac20.htm#links, plus multiple times within this section.
I also added them to the following articles:
http://www.answering-christianity.com/hot_gas.htm
http://www.answering-christianity.com/detailed_meanings_of_scientific_words_in_verses.htm
http://www.answering-christianity.com/6_days.htm
http://www.answering-christianity.com/allah_and_science.htm
Also, when you visit: http://www.answering-christianity.com/ac8.htm#links, you'll find in the Rebuttals Section that the first entry is the Rebuttals to the charges against the Scientific Miracles in the Glorious Quran.
I hope this helps, insha'Allah.
Take care akhi,
Osama Abdallah
Walakyumsalam:)
Jazakallah! Thank you for adding the article. (A minor spelling mistake in "Furhtermore" on the article, but otherwise it's informative).
So many of the anti-Islamic websites have been feeding people the idea that the universe is not expanding and it's a false translation and that we only started doing it after 1930. Looking at the Arabic words and the history of tafseer we know that is not the case!
Did you check out the answering Islam website(and some other wiki answer/ refutation website) stating that the Big Bang in the Quran is some pagan myth? That was a total joke of a rebuttal by them!
The pagan myths assume a fully formed "sky" was attached to earth and God separated them - it's a superstitious myth.
In the Quran, the earth and universe as a whole came from DUKHAN. Everything previously was from a singularity, which totally disproves the notion that the earth and 'sky' was fully formed, so all in all, it is clearly referring to the fact that our universe stemmed from a singularity, - no doubts about it.
Some of the refutations posed clearly quote mine the Holy Quran and ignore the context.
By the way Brother, i saw you had something on Isaac Newton. I watched a documentary on TV and they quoted him saying that he believed the bible was corrupted in the 4th century, and that he did not believe in the trinity, and that he believed God was one, and Jesus pbuh was a medium i.e a prophet between us and God. Isaac newton spent MUCH more time on theology than mathematics/physics/alchemy! Mashallah.
Thanks once again!
edit: Also brother, the clay article you had was great.(new scientist article) Do you feel another interpretation could be that we are naturally from organic material that originates from earth/clay in terms of our nutrient composition? So that in addition to water constitutes the elements found in a human being.
