I have been to the links you offer and many others by other authors making essentially the same assertions you are making regarding the supposed scientific or numerological miracles in the Qur'an.
One of the signs is about How God will meet His creations on The Day of Resurrection. Prior to that, we will have end of days.
This is a link of reference about shape of universe from NASA (http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/uni_shape.html).
Almighty God said He is the One that controls the expansive universe. That's why if we search for facts on the final stage of expansion @ End of Days. We can't find any possibilities of it to happen. Thus the argument of Universe expanding-forever remains true for human as human will never know when it will end.
But , Almighty God said,
"And it is We who have constructed the heaven with might, and verily, it is We who are steadily expanding it."
(The Qur'an, 51:47)
"Verily, the Hour is surely coming. But I will to keep it hidden, that every soul may be rewarded for that which it strives (to achieve)." [The Qur'an 20:15]
Almighty God explanation on end of days about what will happen to our flat universe.
The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it. [That is] a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, We will do it. (The Qur'an, 21:104)
Indeed , this is a great verse from the Divine Creator reminding us to always prepare before the coming of Judgement Day.
They are all easily explained as either simple observations well within the capabilities of 7th century men, or a few general inferences lacking anything close to miraculous specificity, or numerological constructions well within the capacity of 7th century men to construct. Do you have any specific citations of the Qur'an that are not of this kind?
Brother Hamza has some things to say. I found this by following your links :)

Peace Bro
As'salamu Alaikum akhi Dawud,
May Allah Almighty bless you. But brother, as I requested before, please do not post the DNA and RNA stuff here, or any related nonsense here. Taking partial letters from random words and say they are D and N and A is nonsense. Same with with RNA and NTRA and all other nonsense that you posted. And I told you also that using this method, we can also extract the F*** word and any word we like!
Please do not spam this board with this nonsense, akhi. And worse, please do not make a mockery out of the Holy Quran's Scientific and Numerical Miracles, akhi. I already made this request before, dear brother, and removed these posts before.
Please present your case here as to why they should be allowed. Let's discuss it here in the open. Show me where I am going wrong, please. Don't just impose them on us like this.
Either way, may Allah Almighty bless you for your efforts and sincerity. Ameen.
Take care,
Osama Abdallah
As'salamu Alaikum akhi Dawud,
I just did brief checks on DNA and you are wrong for the following reasons:
1- Noble Verse 18:65 is talking about a MALE servant, and no name was mentioned. Here is the Arabic text:
?18:65 ????? ???? ?? ?????? ?????? ???? ?? ????? ??????? ?? ???? ????
[018:065] Then found they one of Our slaves, unto whom We had given mercy from Us, and had taught him knowledge from Our presence.
The Arabic word that has DNA letters in Arabic in the Noble Verse is ????. But this Noble Word is also used in the following Noble Verses, and they don't give any hint about the Word's meaning to mean DNA today.
Show me where following Noble Verses are hinting to DNA?
?4:67 ???? ???????? ?? ???? ???? ?????
[004:067] And We should then have given them from our presence a great reward;
?19:13 ?????? ?? ???? ????? ???? ????
[019:013] And piety (for all creatures) as from Us, and purity: He was devout,
?20:99 ???? ??? ???? ?? ????? ???? ??? ??? ?????? ?? ???? ????
[020:099] Thus do We relate to thee some stories of what happened before: for We have sent thee a Message from Our own Presence.
?21:17 ?? ????? ?? ???? ???? ???????? ?? ???? ?? ??? ??????
[021:017] If it had been Our wish to take (just) a pastime, We should surely have taken it from the things nearest to Us, if We would do (such a thing)!
?28:57 ?????? ?? ???? ????? ??? ????? ?? ????? ?? ?? ???? ??? ???? ???? ???? ???? ????? ?? ?? ???? ?? ???? ???? ?????? ????????
[028:057] They say: "If we were to follow the guidance with thee, we should be snatched away from our land." Have We not established for them a secure sanctuary, to which are brought as tribute fruits of all kinds,- a provision from Ourselves? but most of them understand not.
I won't argue long with you on this. Please do not use this approach here. The others where you matched Noble Verses' numerical references with dates are ok.
May Allah Almighty bless you. Please honor my request to you.
Take care,
Osama Abdallah

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother Dawud,
Please write your actual writings in text and not in images. Just like your answers to me in your recent posts. This would:
1- Allow for your writings to be picked up by search engines.
2- Allow for them to be searchable by the users.
3- Allows the user to copy and paste and verify.
Now for actual pictures like the Leech, for example, then yes, please do post them as pictures. But please make your text in actual writings and not images. If I have objections or find errors, then I'll just directly respond to you. This way we can interact and reach to the Truth, insha'Allah.
May Allah Almighty bless you, akhi. Ameen. Feel free to express your thoughts as you wish. I won't interfere. I will interact with replies if needed, insha'Allah.
Take care akhi, and keep up the great work!
Osama Abdallah
Brother Dawud,
No, there is no leech stage to human development.
"what is this then?" you ask.
Answer, a human embryo.
Yes, I realize that at that point in development there is a very crude resemblance between a leech and a human embryo.
This resembles a leech

http://www.jillstanek.com/archives/bethanyd.jpg
It is a simple observational fact that human beings resemble leeches in their early development.
All that is needed to observe this fact is a miscarriage.
Miscarriages were, unfortunately, common.
There is no scientific miracle in describing the products of a miscarriage as a leech, or a clot, or a chewed thing. Those are just crude descriptions of the obvious.

Mr. Habal,
I see clearly that you are prone to make assumptions when you do not have evidence.
Actually, the books of Moses contain even more instructions to wretched actions than the Qur'an. Unfortunately for the indigenous people of what we now call Palestine or Israel those instructions were genocide against them. Fortunately for the rest of the world, the explicit incitement to murder made by Moses was limited to that relatively small geographical area.
Your post is little more than a disjointed rant, filled with anger and accusations based on assumptions for which you have no evidence beyond what you can "smell" through your computer.
The "miracle" I have thoroughly debunked is that life is made from water.
You wish to bring up that the Qur'an also says that man was made from mud. That is also scientifically false. Science tells us that human beings evolved from lower primates, not mud.
You seek to discount the fact and theory of evolution by citing a tiny percentage of individuals in the field who have in fact used fraud to further their own agenda, likely fame and wealth. That is one of the great things about science. It is other scientists who expose false claims through the scientific method.
Indeed, the Qur'an is not a science book and there are no scientific miracles in it. There are a number of very crude and obvious observations in it that are so apparent to any careful observer that they have some alignment with reality if interpreted in the broadest sense, which in no way qualifies such statements as miracles.
Peace Mr. Habal
Science tells us that human beings evolved from lower primates, not mud.
Brother Dawud,you have succeded with first task

1. Intentional human construction
2. Chance
3. Reverse association of numerical relationships by cherry picking

If your child gets a bacterial infection will you really request the physician to use a fly that has that same pathogen on one wing, extract the antidote from the other wing, and give it to your child to swallow?
submit,
Yes, I realize the Hadith does not explicitly call for the extraction of medicine from the wings of flies. I am employing argumentum ad absurdum to demonstrate my position.
Do you really believe in an antidote on the opposite wing?
If so, then it is reasonable to use the information in this Hadith to cure human infections.
1. Capture a fly.
2. Test 1 wing for pathogens.
3. If a pathogen is found dip the other wing in a solvent to capture the antidote in solution.
4. Process the dissolved antidote into a deliverable medicine form.
5. Whenever an individual is identified with an infection of the type of pathogen identified in step 2 administer the antidote medicine obtained in step 4.
Brother Dawud,
I believe I may have applied a different numerological algorithm than the one you specified!
No matter, I solved it with another algorithm, the below entry matches my most recent reading of your algorithm. That is one of the fascinating things about iterative numerical methods. One may curve fit using a wide variety of functions and arrive at a solution to the specified degree of accuracy, in this case 3 decimal places. The solution converges on a different set of coefficients, but is just as valid as any other solution.
Again please note, 1618/1000 = 1.618, an exact representation of the approximation "everybody" uses.

I have conclusively proved that the claim of a miracle made by brother Osama is false and should be removed from his posted claims.
I have no independent means to verify your latest asserted set of relationships even exits, and I have no intention of counting verses in the Qur'an myself.
To work on your latest set of "miraculous" criteria I would need in text form a summary of all the data cited, preferably in .xls or .csv form. If you could clearly and concisely list in text form all the relations of all the components you wish to engineer into your "miracle" I can work on it over time.
My assertion stands, that there are no scientific miracles in the Qur'an, and the asserted numerological associations are within the capability of 7th century man to engineer into the texts.
Oh, but I did another solution! This time I duplicated the exact numbers of the so called golden ratio supposedly created in code by Allah. And I can assure you, I am not Allah, yet I produced these numbers. There are no scientific miracles in the Qur'an

Question to arabic speakers
what does this two words mean
fromverse
76:28
?????? ????????????? ??????????? ?????????? ? ??????? ??????? ?????????? ????????????? ???????????
washadadna asrahum
does it mean
We strengthened their form
some translate it like this
We created them and fixed their bones and joints;
We created them and made their joints strong,
We created them and made their joints firm,
We created them, and We strengthened their joints;
We created them and strengthened their joints;
Why do they translate joints, is asrahum (their joints) or ???
why do i ask this beacuse
from the begining of the Chapter Insan (Human)
to the word (We strengthened their joints / We trengthened their form) there is 206 words
and we know today that humans have 206 bones in their body
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bones_of_the_human_skeleton
The skeleton of an adult human consists of 206 bones. It is composed of 270 bones at birth, which decreases to 206 bones by adulthood after some bones have fused together

Mr. Habbal,
Here is the text
"The Prophet said "If a house fly falls in the drink of anyone of you, he should dip it (in the drink), for one of its wings has a disease and the other has the cure for the disease."
Sahih Bukhari 4:54:537"
There is no evidence that one wing has a disease and the other wing has the cure for that disease.
It might be that we derive certain treatments from insects, such as the fly. There is no evidence that one is well advised to "dip it in the drink" because the fly can carry a wide variety of pathogens, and antidotes to those pathogens have not been found on one wing of the fly or anyplace else on they fly.
You are engaging in fallacious thinking. If you do not understand how your reasoning is fallacious then I invite you to study logical fallacies and how to make an argument that avoids them.
Brother Osama questions the validity of this Hadith here:
The Hadith of the fly is not a Mutawatir one
http://www.answering-christianity.com/hadiths_of_the_fly.htm
The topic of this thread is "There are no scientific miracles in the Qur'an" and that is the topic I intend to address here.
Note, the moon, mercury, venus, sun, mars, jupiter, and saturn were treated the same in terms of motion and were all considered planets of the earth.

A must-watch video: Scientists today believe that our galaxy is currently traveling towards a Black Hole and Star Vega. So the sun, which is the mother of our Solar System, will not just exist forever. There will come a time where it will come to a halt in both motion and light. Also, the Glorious Quran [1] declares that the earth is: 1- Spherical. 2- Suspended in Space. 3- Rotating around itself. (emphasis on dahaha and its derivatives) 4- Is traveling in Space. 5- Also, all celestial bodies are Yaa'rujoon (traveling in orbits) in space.
