As I showed in the many definitions, if something gets SUTIH, it means it got pressed. A man who is MASTOOH is someone who is very bloated after eating too much food that he feels he's about to blow up. A nose that is MASTOOH, is a nose that is pressed in. An earth that is MASTOOHA or has been SUTIHAT, means that it's been pressed.
Also, scientists today have confirmed that the earth has gone through
"The Big Splat", where a planet size body of mostly-iron had slammed into earth and formed its iron core. So the earth was SUTIHAT there by having that whole body of planet slamming itself right through it. And did not Allah Almighty Himself Say that He sent down iron:
"We sent aforetime Our messengers with clear signs and sent down them the Book and the Balance (of right and wrong), that men may stand forth in justice; and We sent down iron, in which is (material for) Mighty war, as well as many benefits for mankind, that Allah may test who it is that will help, unseen, Him and His messengers: For Allah is Full of strength, exalted in Might (And able to enforce His Will). (The Noble Quran, 57:25)"Why Iron??Out of all of the metals that Allah Almighty created and were known to man 1400 years ago, Allah Almighty chose to speak about IRON BEING SENT DOWN FROM SPACE TO EARTH, which had been scientifically confirmed.

Sutihat is referring to a colossal event!Another point worth mentioning is that when we look at the context of the Noble Verses, we see Allah Almighty bringing our attentions to investigate and research certain main things. Let's look at the Noble Verses:

[088:017] Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?-
[088:018] And at the Sky, how it is raised high?-
[088:019] And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?-
[088:020] And at the Earth, how it is spread out SUTIHAT (?, formed after a splat, is pressed and expanded)?Notice how Allah Almighty is Commanding us to look into:
1- The complex creation of the camel (the ship of the desert).
2- The Heavens above us.
3- The mountains on earth and how they were formed.
4- The earth and how it was SUTIHAT.
The context clearly suggests looking at events such as the
"The Big Splat", and the bulging of the earth at the equator events. Again, visit:
