The explosion of Stars (FORMING ROSES), Galaxies and the Universe in the Noble Quran had been confirmed by NASA.

The explosion of Stars (FORMING ROSES), Galaxies and the Universe in the Noble Quran had been confirmed by NASA:

     (a)- Explosions weren't known 1,500 years ago.
     (b)- No "red" was mentioned in the Noble Verse!
     (c)- There are many earths, not just one, in the Glorious Quran.

2- Pictures of more ROSY explosions captured by NASA.
3- A similar Miracle.
4- Conclusion.

The Holy Quran and Islam are filled with scientific statements and notions. These are statements of Allah Almighty describing how He created things on earth and in the Universe. What's most amazing is that all of these scientific statements and notions had been proven to be in perfect agreement with science and our modern-day scientific discoveries. Allah Almighty made the Noble Quran be Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) Everlasting Divine Miracle and proof for Prophethood. The Holy Book certainly stood the test of time 1,500 years ago with Its Claims, Prophecies and Miraculous language eloquence, and it does again and again in our day today with Its overwhelming agreement with science and discoveries that were not known to man 1,500 years ago.

Allah Almighty Said: "We will show them Our signs in the Universe and inside their selves, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran, 41:53)"

With this said, let us what Allah Almighty Said in the Glorious Quran. We read about Solar Systems' Explosions (السماء Al-Samaa' is singular and not plural as in other Noble Verses. It means immediate Heaven or Solar System, or also Earth's Sky):

Now obviously, a natural rose wouldn't form when a "Heaven" or a Solar System or even an entire galaxy and its trillions of solar systems all explode. It is rather the look of it, and this is exactly what NASA confirms:

First of all, it is worth mentioning that dynamites, bombs and explosions, in general, weren't known to man 1,500 years ago, and certainly, explosions of stars and solar systems, and their resemblance to roses weren't also known to man 1,500 years ago, and nor were they even known to us until very recently. Yet, we see a very accurate description by Allah Almighty in the Noble Quran, below, about the galaxies' inner-explosions resembling ROSES, which the ample pictures below clearly prove. This is, again, despite the fact that the Holy Prophet of Islam, Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, never saw any explosion in his entire life, nor were explosions -especially explosions of galaxies' stars and solar systems - even known to man, 1,500 years ago.

The following are pictures of exploded Stars that are similar to our Sun. Notice how their explosion resembles the shape of roses:

The following is a picture of a Sun like our Sun that became a White Dwarf. Notice it's rosy-paint dust that is
still surrounding it, which further confirms the Glorious Quran's two Divine Claims about:

1- The day will come when our sky will look like a "rose colored like-paint" (55:37).

2- The day will come when our Sun will "shrink and become a compressed and "condensed ball" (81:1).

(Click to enlarge)
This is a picture that shows the comparison
between the earth's size and the average white
dwarf star.

Each star supports the atmospheres of its local planets and moons. Let us look at what Allah Almighty Said in the Noble Quran:

"And when the heaven splitteth asunder and becometh ROSY-LIKE PAINT - (The Noble Quran, 55:37)"

Note: The Noble Verse in Arabic says: "Fa-itha inshaqqati alssamao fakanat wardatan kaalddihani" "Wardatan" is derived from the root word "Warda", which literally means "rose" or "flower".

In the Arabic Noble Verse, "wardatan" was translated as "ROSY" above. The root word "WARDA" in Arabic LITERALLY means "ROSE" or "FLOWER". The "tan" at the end of "wardatan" is not part of the word. It is only an Arabic PUNCTUATION that only changes the sound of the word for grammatical rules. It is pronounced as "ten", with the "a" being short. The reason why the above word was not written as "wardaten" is because in many parts of the world, the English word "ten" (number 10) is pronounced as "tin". Only the American-English pronounce the "e" as a short "a". Most of the world uses the British-English system and they pronounce the "e" as "i", and the "o" as it is, such as "stop" pronounced as "stope". The American-English pronounces the "o" as a thick "a". Also, if we were to add two Arabic characters, "alif" and "noon" at the end of "warda", it would change the pronunciation to "taan" (wardataan), and it then becomes two "wardas"; plural.

The following are pictures of exploded Stars that are similar to our Sun. Notice how their explosion resembles the shape of roses:

It is worth mentioning that many English translations of Noble Verse 55:37 falsely added the word "red" in the translation. Allah Almighty never said that the explosions will look LIKE HUMR or AHMAR (red) ROSY PAINT. He just said LIKE ROSY PAINT without any specific color. The following analysis clearly and indisputably prove this:

The highlighted part in Noble Verse 55:37 only says LIKE ROSY PAINT. Notice that no HUMR or AHMAR is mentioned in the transliteration.

‏35:27 الم تر ان الله انزل من السماء ماء فاخرجنا به ثمرات مختلفا الوانها ومن الجبال جدد بيض وحمر مختلف الوانها وغرابيب سود

[035:027] Alam tara anna Allaha anzala mina alssama-i maan faakhrajna bihi thamaratin mukhtalifan alwanuha wamina aljibali judadun beedun wahumrun mukhtalifun alwanuha wagharabeebu soodun

[035:027] Seest thou not that God sends down rain from the sky? With it We then bring out produce of various colours. And in the mountains are tracts white and red, of various shades of colour, and black intense in hue.

Notice how حمر does not exist in the Arabic text of Noble Verse 55:37. "Red" was only added by the English translators. In fact, Rashad Khalifa got the English translation of Noble Verse 55:37 right:

The following information was sent to me by a Muslim sister; may Allah Almighty always be pleased with her:

Ibn Kathir says: "This means that they will melt like sediment and silver melt, when they are heated. And they will have colors, though like they are painted, sometimes red, sometimes yellow, sometimes blue or green. Reflecting the fears of the Day of recorection. Suddi Axle said: "It will have rosy colors, such as dirty oil". Mojahid said: "As the colors of paint." (Tafsir Ibn Kathir 55/37).

Note: Just like we would be able to see our sun's explosion (high luminosity and massive increase in size, and cataclysmic explosion that would rock and destroy our solar system), and just like we would be able to see its colors, the same applies to these stars above. While we do not see them without the aid of telescope, but their explosions are real, and their paint-like-colors are projected out after their explosions.

Some argue that these colors are not the original ones in space, and that they are enhanced. While this might be true for some or many or even all of the pictures, but the fact still remains that the colors and the pictures are closest to reality. See for instance this picture that was captured by NASA's Hubble Telescope:

This is how they captured this image deep in space. It was the telescope that captured it. A lot more real pictures like this are given below. Please also visit:

The explosions are also rose-like in structure. The captured pictures above and below give an almost-accurate presentation of what actually happened. So while the colors may not always be the same, but the originals still remain a perfect confirmation of the Glorious Quran's Miracle and Prophecy.

Also, these colors are determined by our Cosmic and Gamma Ray detectors and other advanced radars and detectors that are specialized for the Universe. And these pictures are captured in real time deep in space. So, these pictures are closest to reality. And since we are today able to see these explosions in the captured pictures that show them to very clearly resemble the shapes of roses, then

And again, the explosions of the solar systems are rosy-looking in structure, and they do give off debris that are like paint.

Question:

The verse in question is: [055:037] When the sky disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint.

This verse was applied to a nebula and how it appears like a rose like paint. The problem is, a nebula is a Star exploding! Not the universe/sky breaking.

Why is this verse attributed to nebula. I can't see the connection.

Answer:
.......

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother Farhan,

Jazaka Allah Khayr for the good explanation, akhi. Your interpretation is certainly possible, and is certainly encompassed in the following broader explanation, which I will update the article tonight, insha'Allah:

1- The Noble Verse that brother Mclinkin94 raised is 55:37.

2- We actually have to look at the full context, which starts at Noble Verse 55:33. Here are Noble Verses 55:33-37:

‏55:33 يامعشر الجن والانس ان استطعتم ان تنفذوا من اقطار السماوات والارض فانفذوا لاتنفذون الا بسلطان
‏55:34 فباي الاء ربكما تكذبان
‏55:35 يرسل عليكما شواظ من نار ونحاس فلا تنتصران
‏55:36 فباي الاء ربكما تكذبان
‏55:37 فاذا انشقت السماء فكانت وردة كالدهان

[055:033] O you jinns and humans, if you can penetrate the outer limits of the heavens and the earth, go ahead and penetrate. You cannot penetrate without ~~authorization~~ mighty authority (سلطان sultan). (See also Sheikh Yusuf Estes' explanation on this Noble Verse).
[055:034] Which of your Lord's marvels can you deny?
[055:035] You get bombarded with projectiles of fire and metal, and you cannot win.
[055:036] Which of your Lord's marvels can you deny?
[055:037] When the sky disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint.

It is clear in the context of these Noble Verses, that:

(a)- Man could ascend up in space, once he has the "mighty authority" (Sultan) with him. This is further proven by the fact that Allah Almighty did speak about lack of Oxygen and Constriction of breathing as man ascends higher and higher into the Heavens: http://www.answering-christianity.com/space_pressure_in_noble_quran.htm.

(b)- If man tries to pass through the Heavens, he will bombarded with space rocks and metals.

(c)- Man could actually see already-disintegrated Heavens that resemble the shapes of roses. And this is true. Our advanced space telescopes have already shown us ample pictures of disintegrated systems that look like roses and are painted like roses: "turns rose colored like paint". Visit: http://www.answering-christianity.com/galaxy_explosion.htm.

(d)- By the way, the penetrating the Heavens may not also necessarily be physical. Allah Almighty could be here also be referring to the Space Telescopes that we have that capture Galaxies that are many many light years away from us. And indeed, when we established this penetration, what did we see?

1- We saw exploded star systems that resembled roses and looked like "rose colored like paint":

Doomed Solar Systems:

All of them look like "rose colored like paint":

2- We also discovered the complex Clusters, Cosmic Webs, Gama Rays Bursts, Dark Matter, Black Holes and so much more that the Universe has out there. Please visit:

3- We saw the trillions of Space Rocks and Metal Asteroids that are near and far away from our solar system. For ample more Noble Verses, please visit: http://www.answering-christianity.com/shooting_stars_miracle.htm.

I hope this helps, insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty is Willing).

From http://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php?topic=2240.msg9836#msg9836:

There are many earths, not just one:

Question:

Contradiction in surah fussilat ?

We've established how thumma can mean moreover (I've checked for proof).

But in Surah Fussilat verses 9-12.

Isn't it implying that when the heavens and earth came together the earth already had mountains in it ?

That the stars came the same time as earth ? Same age ?

And why did it distinguish between seven heavens and samaa al dunya ? Are they supposedly the same ?

Answer:

UPDATE ON September 3, 2016:

Noble Verse 39:67 clearly proves that EARTH in the Quran is both PLURAL and SINGULAR:

www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php/topic,2243.msg9958.html#msg9958

Continuing with my post:

Here is what Allah Almighty Said in Noble Verses 41:9-12:

[041:009] Say: Is it that ye deny Him Who created the earth in two Days? And do ye join equals with Him? He is the Lord of (all) the Worlds.

[041:010] He set on the (earth), mountains standing firm, high above it, and bestowed blessings on the earth, and measure therein all things to give them nourishment in due proportion, in four Days, in accordance with (the needs of) those who seek (Sustenance).

[041:011]  Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke: He said to it and to the earth: "Come ye together, willingly or unwillingly." They said: "We do come (together), in willing obedience."

[041:012]  So He completed them as seven firmaments in two Days, and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command. And We adorned the lower heaven with lights, and (provided it) with guard. Such is the Decree of (Him) the Exalted in Might, Full of Knowledge.

‏41:9 قل ائنكم لتكفرون بالذي خلق الارض في يومين وتجعلون له اندادا ذلك رب العالمين
‏41:10 وجعل فيها رواسي من فوقها وبارك فيها وقدر فيها اقواتها في اربعة ايام سواء للسائلين
‏41:11 ثم استوى الى السماء وهي دخان فقال لها وللارض ائتيا طوعا او كرها قالتا اتينا طائعين
‏41:12 فقضاهن سبع سموات في يومين واوحى في كل سماء امرها وزينا السماء الدنيا بمصابيح وحفظا ذلك تقدير العزيز العليم

The following points will insha'Allah will make everything very clear to you:

1- The Heaven was all smoke. Science has confirmed that the Universe was one big body of smoke. The entire universe originated from smoke:

"smoke" that was the origin of the whole universe. (The Space Atlas, Heather and Henbest, page 50) Please visit:

www.answering-christianity.com/hot_gas.htm

The 6 other Heavens were copies from the original one:

2- Similar to how Allah Almighty CLONED mankind from the back of Adam, peace be upon him, by creating many different people from Adam simultaneously, the Heaven and the Earth were copied into 7 different Heavens. For the human-cloning, please visit:

www.answering-christianity.com/cloning.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php/topic,842.msg2547.html#msg2547

Notice in the Noble Verses above how:

(a). Allah Almighty spoke about creating and fashioning the earth and its complex system to support our complex life.

(b). Allah Almighty spoke about creating the Heaven that the earth is in.

(c). Brought both the Heaven and the Earth together, "willingly or unwillingly", while the Universe was still all smoke.

(d).  THEN HE MULTIPLIED THEM into 7 Heavens:

[041:012]  So He completed them as seven firmaments in two Days, and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command.....



3- So like mankind who were cloned into many types and many nations from the back of Adam, the Heavens and all of their Earths were cloned from the initial Heaven and Earth that Allah Almighty Created and fashioned. This is why you read in another Noble Verse:

"God is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that God has power over all things, and that God comprehends, all things in (His) Knowledge.  (The Noble Quran, 65:12)"

‏65:12 الله الذي خلق سبع سموات ومن الارض مثلهن يتنزل الامر بينهن لتعلموا ان الله على كل شئ قدير وان الله قد احاط بكل شئ علما

Earth is both singular and plural in the Glorious Quran. Each cloned Heaven has its set of EARTHS that contain life (similar or exact as ours) in them. This is why the Angels were very concerned when Allah Almighty wanted to create a vicegerent on earth. They worried that he would shed the blood and do injustice. They obviously had terrible experiences in the past with similar creatures to ours. For ample proofs, please visit:

www.answering-christianity.com/earth.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/adam.htm

The Noble Verse doesn't say 7 earths only. As I explained in my previous post above, THE ONE HEAVEN became 7 Heavens. And so whatever earths it had, the other Heavens had similar earths. To further prove this, consider the following Noble Verse:

"When the sky/heaven (السماء) disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint (وردة كالدهان)." (The Noble Quran, 55:37)

‏55:37 فاذا انشقت السماء فكانت وردة كالدهان

We know exactly that the rose-colored explosions are stars (solar systems) expiring. So each star is its EARTH samaa (Heaven). So when Allah Almighty says "....and of the earth a similar number....", He is talking about the solar systems inside each Heaven that do have life, whether similar or not similar to ours, on them. So Samaa can be limited to our local solar system, and it can mean the Heaven that we're in, and it can also mean the ORIGINAL GRAND HEAVEN that Allah Almighty Created and made a total of 7 Heavens out of it.

I hope this helps, insha'Allah. No errors in the Glorious Quran. The doomed-to-Hell infidels have nothing but noise and lies on the Quran. We have the Divine Truth of Allah Almighty with us.

Question:

I'm so sorry brother Osama the points seem rather confusing and didnt seem to answer my questions?

Answer:

And what is confusing about my answer? Allah Almighty Created the Universe and everything in it, and He, the Almighty:

1- Either duplicated it 6 more times as He duplicated mankind after the creation of Adam and Eve.

--OR--

2- Divided the Universe into 7 similar Heavens.

In either case, what is confusing about it? The Quran is clear about ONE HEAVEN was initially created, and then Allah Almighty out of it made a total of 7 Heavens. You can say it got cloned, or Allah Almighty from that prototype made similar Heavens, or Allah Almighty simply divided the HUGE Heaven into 7 Heavens. Any case is fine with me. And many things in the Universe belong to the unknown. Allah Almighty Said:

[017:085] They will ask thee of the spirit. Say, 'The spirit comes at the bidding of my Lord, and ye are given but a little knowledge thereof.'

Please don't be shy. If you think I am a complete doofus with the points I presented, then speak up. I am always open to correction and criticism.

Take care,
Osama Abdallah

Question:

@Osama i meant in terms of chronological order. Isnt it saying the stars came after or with the earth ?

And that there were mountains already on earth when they came willingly or unwillingly ?

Answer:

Noble Verse 41:10 above uses "AND" (wa و). It is not giving chronological order. It is simply listing the things that were created. Allah Almighty was explaining what He created on earth.

Besides, like our creation inside our mothers' wombs, things do great created or formed in parallel fashion. Multiple things can occur at the same time. So while the EARTHS (plural) in the HEAVEN were getting created and fashioned, other creations such as stars and other solar systems were also being created. In other words, the entire Universe's creation didn't PAUSE while waiting on the earth to finish forming its mountains.

The anti-Islamics are too silly. And if they apply 1% of their BS on their books, then they wouldn't continue to believe in them. Like for example, GOD was afraid from the Iraqis (Babylonians) to create a tower that would reach Him:

www.answering-christianity.com/bible_scientific_absurdities.htm

And remember, there is not just one earth:

"God is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that God has power over all things, and that God comprehends, all things in (His) Knowledge. (The Noble Quran, 65:12)"

‏65:12 الله الذي خلق سبع سموات ومن الارض مثلهن يتنزل الامر بينهن لتعلموا ان الله على كل شئ قدير وان الله قد احاط بكل شئ علما

The Noble Verse doesn't say 7 earths only. As I explained in my previous post above, THE ONE HEAVEN became 7 Heavens. And so whatever earths it had, the other Heavens had similar earths. To further prove this, consider the following Noble Verse:

"When the sky/heaven (السماء) disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint (وردة كالدهان)." (The Noble Quran, 55:37)

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother,

The Glorious Quran is very clear about the earth is:

1- Spherical.
2- Suspended in Space.
3- Rotating around itself. (emphasis on dahaha and its derivatives)
4- Is traveling in Space.

There are many Noble Verses that speak about the earth's shape and motion in space. Please visit:

The possible Green Carpet:

See video on Youtube [2]. The Hadith in question is not in contradiction with Science. The aurora lights from the atmosphere's edge in space do many times look green:

The Aurora Lights from earth also look Green:

The earth is like Carpet:

Also, earth from space does look like a carpet:

Similar Miracle in the Glorious Quran:

1- The explosion of the Universe, Galaxies and Stars bring about Smoke.

"When the sky disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint (وردة كالدهان)." (The Noble Quran, 55:37) [2] [3]

Earth is Spherical and Rotating and Traveling Fast:

And again, remember that the Glorious Quran does state in several Noble Verses 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.

The Earth Spread out Spherically, and its Waters came out from it:

Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 79:30-79:31

Arabic (Read from right to left. Also, all png image files: [1] [2]):

‏79:30 والارض بعد ذلك دحاها

‏79:31 اخرج منها ماءها ومرعاها

Khalifa: (why is he here?)

[079:030] He made the earth egg-shaped.

[079:031] From it, He produced its own water and pasture.

Below in this article, we'll see the ample proofs that the earth was indeed SPREAD OUT SPHERICALLY. And Scientists have proven that water does indeed originate from its planets when they're hot enough and are located in the Goldilocks Zone when orbiting their sun.

As thoroughly detailed in this detailed article, I thoroughly demonstrated using 7 encyclopedic dictionaries that DAHA دحاها means:

1- To push.

2- To throw.

دحا (daha): دفعه و رمى به (dafa'aahu wa ramaa bih) Caused it to move, pushed it, or threw it.

دحا الصبي المِدحاةَ أي دفع الصبي المِدحاةَ Daha the boy the rolling toy, means the boy pushed the rolling toy.

3- To make something roll, as in DAHA the barrel from the top of the hill, which means he rolled it down from the top of the hill. Also, this is where the Arabic word DAHRAJA is derived from, which means to make something roll down.

4- To make something round. I used several examples for ROUND AND BULGED TUMMY, and making round objects. I even used a Hadith from Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, when he said:

In Prophet Muhammad's Hadith: كان لأسامة بطننٌ مُندحٌ اي متسع Osama had a round and big tummy.

Also the dictionary says:
الدحداح هو المستدير الململم The dahdaah is the person who is ROUND and STOCKY.

و بطنٌ مُنداحُ أي خارخٌ مُدوّر His tummy is mun-daahun means it is OUT THERE AND ROUND مُدوّر.

So when Allah Almighty DAHA THE EARTH, it means that Allah Almighty EXPANDED IT SPHERICALLY through rotating around itself and moving in its orbit in space. And this is why Allah Almighty Said after that (after He DAHAHA), He brought forth from it its water and pasture. Science has proven this to be 100% accurate and True:

1- Water was brought forth from the earth - Science confirmed it and the Holy Quran claimed it 1400 years ago:

Note: In Article #3'S video in the article, the collision of the iron-planet made
our earth EGG-SHAPED, according to the Scientists and the video.

2- Our earth expanded and produced its own water:

The sun never ceases nor disappears [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]:

(Play video file: [1] [2])

Prophet Muhammad: The sun is in constant orbit always rising on people while setting on others.

عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم سئل :هذه المغارب اين تغرب ؟ وهذه المطالع اين تطلع ؟ فقال صلى الله عليه وسلم هي على رسلها لا تبرح ولا تزول , تغرب عن قوم وتطلع على قوم ,وتغرب عن قوم وتطلع , فقوم يقولون غربت ,وقوم يقولون طلعت

"Ibn Abbas narrated on Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, that the Prophet was asked: Where does the sun go after all of these sunsets? And where does it come from after all of these sunrises? The Prophet, peace be upon him, replied: It is in constant motion. It doesn't stop nor disappear. It sets on people and rises on others, and it sets on people and rises on others. So people would say it has risen while others say it has set."

       - Is rotating around itself.
       - Is moving in space in curvy orbits [2].
       - Is in constant motion.

In this Hadith, above, he certainly seems to have known this fact very well. And this Hadith is even older than Sahih Bukhari. It is important to know that Imam Bukhari and others have declared that they have discarded thousands of Hadiths:

www.islamic-awareness.org/Hadith/bukhari.html

"The two sahih collections did not gather the totality of the authentic ahadith as proved by al-Bukhari's testimony: "I have not included in my book al-Jami` but what is authentic, and I left out among the authentic for fear of [excessive] length."

"... Bukhari, collected twenty thousand of them, of which he rejected ten thousand, accounting them untrue. Of the remaining ten thousand he accepted only 7,275, declaring the rest to be untrustworthy. Abu Da'ud accepted as authentic only 4,800 rules out 50,000."

This is to keep their volumes as simple and manageable as possible. So it is quite possible that the Prophet spoke about the earth being spherical, and the Glorious Quran certainly did, and people just dismissed them as nonsense. I have covered your question in great details at:

Now, in Noble Verses 79:30-32, Allah Almighty Says:

And the earth after that He has spherically expanded
Brought forth from it its water and pasture
and the MOUNTAINS HE SET FIRMLY.

Indeed, scientists have proven that:

1- The earth has spherically expanded.

2- The earth produced its water and pasture on a large scale as a result. I have posted a Scientific Video from History Channel proving this:

3- The mountains due to this expansion were formed; due to the plate tectonics movements, which caused for land to be pushed on top of each other, which formed mountains and hills. You can learn about this at:

Again, the Holy Quran and Islam are filled with scientific statements and notions. These are statements of Allah Almighty describing how He created things on earth and in the Universe. What's most amazing is that all of these scientific statements and notions had been proven to be in perfect agreement with science and our modern-day scientific discoveries. Allah Almighty made the Noble Quran be Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) Everlasting Divine Miracle and proof for Prophethood. The Holy Book certainly stood the test of time 1,500 years ago with Its Claims, Prophecies and Miraculous language eloquence, and it does again and again in our day today with Its overwhelming agreement with science and discoveries that were not known to man 1,500 years ago.

Allah Almighty's Miraculous Description of the explosion of stars resembling the shapes of roses, and their particles that create new colors in space by altering light, in very brief words in Noble Verse 55:37, indeed testifies to the Divine Truth and Miracle of the Holy Quran, especially when we see countless pictures captured by NASA and other reputable institutions, that are specialized in Space Science, that perfectly agree with the Glorious Quran's Divine Claims.

Indeed, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty Alone for making the Noble Quran and the Divine Inspirations that He Sent to Prophet Muhammad be the Perfect and Everlasting Miracle, for us humans, out of all of His Divine Miracles! And may Allah Almighty send His Peace, Mercy and Blessings upon our Beloved and Blessed Prophet, Teacher and Role Model, Muhammad. Ameen.

Quran's STUNNING Divine Miracles: [1]

Here are some of my favorite Stunning Scientific Miracles in the Glorious Quran from among the tens (10s) that are listed in the main sections, below:

1- Here is one stunning Numerical Miracle, from the 10s below, for you:

The Glorious Quran has 114 Chapters. The sum of those Chapters is 6555 (1+2+...+114 = 6555). There are also 6236 Noble Verses in the Glorious Quran. Now, IF YOU ADD EACH CHAPTER # with the number of its Verses, then you get a list of numbers. So 1 (first Chapter) + 7 (# of its Verses) = 8. Do this for all Chapters.

1- The sum of the odd numbers from the list = 6555.
2- The sum of the even numbers from the list = 6236.

See the XLS file for 100% confirmation.

2- The Great Miracle. Allah Almighty in the Holy Quran called the Number 19 Miracle "One of the Mighty Ones (Miracles)" (74:30-37) [1] [2]. See the 100s of Noble Verses that clearly testify to this Great Miracle. Also, did you know that Allah Almighty Said in Surat Nuh (that's Noble Chapter Nuh (Noah)) that Prophet Noah lived for 950 years among his people.

Yet, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty Alone, the entire Noble Surah is exactly written in 950 Letters [1] [2]! You can thoroughly see this in the scanned images that thoroughly verify every single Noble Letter, in the links. Click on the links to see the many other Numerical Miracles in the Holy Quran. Also, see the Numerical Miracles section along with all of the other great sections. Also, 1,000s of examples in zip & PDF (fonts) files all demonstrated in this article!

3- 19 X 115 = 2185 Number 19 and BASMALA Miracle. The total numerical value of Noble Verses 74:30-37 themselves, which are the heart of the Number 19 Miracle, has a stunning Miracle in it. The value of these Noble Verses matches the multiplication of the BASMALA's number of letters (19 Letters) and their total numerical values (115): 19 X 115 = 2185. The Basmala, which full text in Arabic means "In the Name of Allah The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful" is the Key to the Glorious Quran. It is recited first before reading the Holy Quran, and it is also obligatory upon every Muslim to start with the Basmala before starting any task. Again, 1,000s of examples in zip & PDF (fonts) files all demonstrated in this article!

The Glorious Quran declares that the earth is spherical: [1]


Allah Almighty in the Glorious Quran said that earth is:
       - Spherical: "egg-shaped" [1].
       - Is rotating around itself.
       - Is moving in space in curvy orbits [2].
       - Is in constant motion.
       - Is suspended in space.
       - Is swimming in space.
       - Is traveling through the constantly expanding universe [3].
       - The sunsetless North Pole miracle in the Glorious Quran [4].

At the top of the North Pole, the sun never sets, and I showed the video for that, and also quoted the scientific sources for that. Also in the lands near by, it almost never sets either, and I quoted sources for that as well, and also showed pictures of the "polar night" skies on these lands.

       - The Glorious Quran also speaks about many earths [5] and not just earth.
       - The Glorious Quran predicts 11 planets in our solar system [6].

This is also all demonstrated in good details in the following video file and articles:
