1- The gravity of planet earth in the Noble Quran:
Allah Almighty Said: "We will soon 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 now look at what Allah Almighty Said in the Noble Quran:
| Noble Verse(s) 84:1-84:5 |
|
Arberry: [084:001] When heaven is rent asunder [084:002] and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed;
[084:003]
when earth is stretched out
[084:005] and gives ear to its Lord, and is fitly disposed! Arabic (from right to left): 84:1 اذا السماء انشقت 84:2 واذنت لربها وحقت 84:3 واذا الارض مدت 84:4 والقت مافيها وتخلت 84:5 واذنت لربها وحقت |
Allah Almighty Said that when the Hour comes or is about to come, many things will happen in the Universe, among them is that the earth's gravity will be weakened. The earth will cast forth much of what's in it from mass, and then forsake its power (See the scientific proofs that prove this statement to be true in the sub-section below). This clearly proves that Allah Almighty did recognize or did mention in the Glorious Quran that the earth is currently holding us, or that it is the earth that holds. This is further proven in Noble Verses 34:9 and 52:44, further below.
"The Day that We roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books (completed),- even as We produced the first creation, so shall We produce a new one: a promise We have undertaken: truly shall We fulfil it. (The Noble Quran, 21:104)"
Allah Almighty talked about the Big Bang that originated the Universe, and the current constant expansion of the Universe, and the Ultimate Cosmic Crunch that will end this Universe in the Glorious Quran. All of this had been confirmed to be True by science today. Not only that, but NASA had recently discovered and confirmed that the Universe is also as flat as a "sheet of paper":
|
NASA's discovery only 8
years ago: The following link and quote were sent to me by brother Usman; may Allah Almighty always be pleased with him. "The simplest version of
the
inflationary
theory, an extension of the
Big Bang
theory, predicts that the density of the universe is
very close to the critical density,
and that the geometry of the
universe is flat,
like
a sheet of paper.
That is the
result confirmed by the WMAP science."
(http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/uni_shape.html) ................................... (The rest of this table and also the article can be viewed in the link above) |
This goes in perfect harmony with Noble Verse 21:104 about the Cosmic Crunch rolling up the Universe "like a scroll rolled up for books." Please visit the following links for ample proofs and details:
The origins of the Universe, Big Bang theory, Cosmic Crunch, and the creation of the SECOND EARTH after the second Big Bang in the Noble Quran and Science. Also, Dr. Zaghlool's scientific explanation of the earth and heaven coming to Allah Almighty "willingly or unwillingly" and how each celestial object behaves differently depending on its mass.
Furthermore, تخلت in Arabic, in Noble Verse 84:4 above, literally means:
1- To finally let go due to unwelcomed outside reasons, influences, or bad circumstances.
2- To be forced to stop protecting (Ex: When a mother gazelle, for example, is forced to desert her calf to a predator).
3- To stop holding on to.
4- To disown.
5- تخلت also means to abandon or abandoned (This is also verified at Google's online Arabic-English translation).
6- To desert.
7- To leave or abandon its responsibilities.
8- To forsake.
9- To renounce.
The earth currently holding everything is further mentioned in the Glorious Quran in the following Noble Verses about Allah Almighty preventing the clouds and the celestial bodies in the Heaven, such as the moon, from falling down on earth:
| Noble Verse(s) 34:9 |
|
Yusuf Ali: [034:009] See they not what is before them and behind them, of the sky and the earth? If We wished, We could cause the earth to swallow them up, or cause a piece of the sky to fall upon them. Verily in this is a Sign for every devotee that turns to God (in repentance). Arabic (from right to left): 34:9 افلم يروا الى مابين ايديهم وماخلفهم من السماء والارض ان نشا نخسف بهم الارض او نسقط عليهم كسفا من السماء ان في ذلك لاية لكل عبد منيب |
| Noble Verse(s) 52:44 |
|
Yusuf Ali: [052:044] Were they to see a piece of the sky falling (on them), they would (only) say: "Clouds gathered in heaps!" Arabic (from right to left): 52:44 وان يروا كسفا من السماء ساقطا يقولوا سحاب مركوم |
The following points are important:
1- The key words here are "fall upon (نسقط)" and "falling (ساقطا)". Objects in the Heavens outside our ozone layer don't just fall. They each run in their own specific orbit. In fact, the Universe's paths are called orbits (معارج) in the Glorious Quran. Please visit:
2- Allah Almighty Saying that "fall" and "falling" of celestial bodies from Heaven clearly means, from the Noble Quran Itself, that the celestial body would leave its orbit to collide with earth. Falling usually means descending down wildly and out of control. It is not a controlled descent, and the Noble Verses seem to suggest that earth has the control of the timing and direction of the fall through Allah Almighty's Will. This is further proved in the Noble Quran where Allah Almighty Said that we, humans, will be able to leave planet earth when we have the protection of a Sultan (mighty power and authority):
3- Naturally, we are physically confined to earth. We can't just jump in the air and ascend up in space. We need a Sultan to enable us to do so. Also, Allah Almighty did talk about the low air pressure in space, and the impossibility to breath in it with our natural bodies:
So it is the earth that causes things to fall on it, except for what Allah Almighty Wills not to.
4- As further proven in then next section below, Allah Almighty clearly talked about not only gravities in the Universe, but also the balances that exist between them. Please visit:

STUNNING
Divine Miracles:
[1] Here are some of my favorite Stunning Numerical and Scientific Miracles in the Glorious Quran that are listed in the main sections, below: 1- The root for message and all of its derivatives, such as messenger and others occurs 513 times throughout the Glorious Quran. The Prophets' and Messengers', peace be upon them, actual names (Muhammad, Moses, Noah, Abraham, Lot etc....) were also all combined mentioned 513 times in the Glorious Quran. The detailed breakdown of all of this is thoroughly listed here.

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]!

6- The Glorious Quran's Perfect Preservation despite all of the odds and the many challenges to corrupt It. |
(a)- The earth has to first throw out what's in it before it abandons its hold:
Notice Allah Almighty's Divine Claim when He Said:
84:4 والقت مافيها وتخلت
"and casts forth what is in it, and abandons, (The Noble Quran, 84:4)"
This is Scientifically true, because iron, which is located mostly in the core of the earth, is one of the main reasons why earth has its current heavy mass and gravity. Without it, and without much of the metals inside the earth, earth would lose much of its mass, become light weight, and as a result, loss much or most of its gravity. There are countless planets out there that are 100s of times bigger than earth in size, but are much lighter in weight, mass and gravity than it. So yes, in order for earth to lose its gravity, it would have to first lose the metals and mainly the iron that is in it. Allah Almighty further Said about this:
| Noble Verse(s) 99:1-99:5 |
| Dr.
Munir Munshey (one of
www.answering-christianity.com's authors): [099:001] When the earth is shaken up with a cataclysmic quake! [099:002] And the earth yields and disgorges (all) its burden.[099:003] And man remarks, “What is the matter with it?” [099:004] That day, it will recount all that ever occurred on it![099:005] For, your Lord shall have ordered it (to do so). Arabic (from right to left): 99:1 اذا زلزلت الارض زلزالها 99:2 واخرجت الارض اثقالها 99:3 وقال الانسان مالها 99:4 يومئذ تحدث اخبارها 99:5 بان ربك اوحى لها |
(i)- Iron was sent down from space to earth:

(b)- The Scientific Proofs about earth's gravity and stretching:
The following scientific articles elaborate on earth's gravity:
Article #1:
The stretching of the earth and the eruption of the super volcanoes on a global scale at the End of Times was mentioned in the Glorious Quran 1,500 years ago. Without the stretching of the earth's crust on a large scale, the super volcanoes on a global scale would not be possible. This is because the earth is so pressed and condensed within itself, and because it is rotating around its own axle at a high speed, which is why it is bulged at the equator, in order for super volcanoes on a global scale to erupt, the earth's crust must stretch. And scientists predict that this is exactly what will happen when the earth is about to reach its doom. Scientists today have just recently confirmed this Scientific fact that was not known to man 1,500 years ago. This without a doubt proves that Noble Verses 84:3-4 are indeed Divine Miracles and Prophecies from Allah Almighty in His Divine and True Book, the Glorious Quran.
By the way, Allah Almighty also Said that He pressed and condensed the earth, and that the earth is spherical:
Article #2:
Scientists concur to the future possibility of earth getting stretched by far distant Black Holes:
(Click

Two hypothetical Super Massive Black Holes
that are
100s of Light Years away, or even much closer just
here in our Milky Way Galaxy that contains Billions of
Stars and Black Holes, could stretch earth. Scientists
concur to this future possibility.
Certainly, when the Cosmic Crunch occurs, the Universe starts rolling back like the rolling of a scroll, Celestial Galaxies and Stars will get much closer to each others. This means that:
1- Some black holes might get too dangerously close to earth. A dangerously close Super Massive Black Hole could be 100s of Light years away!
2- Some local Stars in our Milky Way Galaxy could explode and turn into Black Holes.
The possibilities of earth encountering a Black Hole or several Black Holes are endless. This is one big possibility for earth's doom.
So yes, the earth could and will stretch someday, as Allah Almighty Said.
Article #3:
The liquid iron core makes much of the earth's gravity and its magnetic field, which protects the earth from dangerous cosmic radiation, by the History & Discovery Channels:
Article #4:
"Actually, all things with mass make gravity and attract one another. The more mass an object has, the more it attracts other objects toward it. So while the Earth can pull on a child, the child can also pull on the Earth. Because the child is only 40 kg, the child makes almost no gravity, and no person sees the Earth move.
The moon, the other planets, and the sun each have enough mass to make gravity. When you were on Earth, the moon, the other planets, and the sun were too far away, so you landed on Earth again. (Gravity pulls us towards the center of the Earth when we are on Earth. It would pull us towards the center of Venus if we were on Venus.)" (Source)
Article #5:
2- The "invisible" force of gravity in the Noble Quran:
Note: The rest of this article's main points are based on the work of Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar [2]; may Allah Almighty always be pleased with him.
(a)- The balanced universe:
Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran the following scientifically proven facts:
1- The universe "is full of paths and orbits". The universe's orbits' system, the moon's S-shaped orbit around the earth, the sun's and the moon's different paths, and more in the Noble Quran.
| See also: |
2- The universe is kept balanced by a balance that Allah Almighty has put:
| Noble Verse(s) 55:7 |
| Dr. Munir
Munshey (one
of www.answering-christianity.com's authors): [055:007] He raised the sky far above, and set up a (perfect) BALANCE. Arabic (Read from right to left. Also, all png image files: [1] [2]): 55:7 والسماء رفعها ووضع الميزان |
| Noble Verse(s) 35:41 |
| Dr. Munir
Munshey (one
of www.answering-christianity.com's authors): [035:041] Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving! Arabic (Read from right to left. Also, all png image files: [1] [2]): 35:41 ان الله يمسك السماوات والارض ان تزولا ولئن زالتا ان امسكهما من احد من بعده انه كان حليما غفورا |
| Noble Verse(s) 79:27-79:28 |
| Dr. Munir
Munshey (one
of www.answering-christianity.com's authors): [079:027] (Oh mankind)! Are you the harder to create, or is it the heavens which He built? [079:028] He raised its vault high, and gave it balance.Arabic (Read from right to left. Also, all png image files: [1] [2]): 79:27 ءانتم اشد خلقا ام السماء بناها79:28 رفع سمكها فسواها |
The balance of gravity that Allah Almighty has put on earth, and its
relationship with our atmosphere's Ozone layer, and their relationship with the
counter gravities in space, including the moon, is what perfectly keeps our sky
up without either going down or going up, and also is what keeps our Ozone layer
a protective
roof (as Allah Almighty precisely Said about
it). This is the Balance that Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble
Quran. If such Balance between gravities didn't exist, then even our air
and Ozone Layer would've vanished into space and life on earth would've been
impossible, and if there was a prevailing gravity from earth, then our air
pressure would've been unbearable, and everything on earth would've been just too
heavy; not to mention also our moon would've eventually collided with our
planet since it is only approximately 360,000 miles away.
(b)- The invisible pillars:
Noble Verse 13:2,
it says the Heaven was raised WITHOUT PILLARS that we would see:
الله الذي رفع السماوات بغير عمد ترونها
"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by
other than بغير pillars
that you see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each
is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His
signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord! (The
Noble Quran, 13:2)"
بغير in
Arabic means WITHOUT.
بغير عمد
ترونها
LITERALLY word-for-word means: "without
pillars you see".
So what's keeping the Heaven is the Balance of Gravity and counter Gravity that
I showed from the Glorious Quran. And science has confirmed this.
13:2 الله الذي رفع السماوات بغير عمد ترونها ثم استوى على العرش وسخرالشمس والقمر كل يجري لاجل مسمى يدبر الامر يفصل الايات لعلكم بلقاء ربكم توقنون
"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by other than the pillars that you see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord! (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"
-- OR--
"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by (a force) different from the pillars that you (normally) see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord! (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"
-- OR--
"It is Allah - by a force (see sub-section 'ii' below for ample Noble Verses and proofs) - Who raised up the heavens without pillars that you can see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord! (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"
ب = by (referring in this context to an invisible force, which makes it read as "by an invisible force").
غير = different from.
عمد = pillars.
ترون = that you see.
ها = it.
Note: In Arabic, references such as [you, your, yours, he, she, it, they, we, us, his, hers, theirs, they, them, him, her] are all part of the word. They are not separate words as in English. Also, terms such as [that, hence, in, not, is, was, are, by, thus, will, would, shall, should, so, therefore, to, the, so that, through] are also part of the Arabic word and not separate as in English.
(i)- Further analysis on Noble Verse 13:2:
Question:
الله الذي رفع
السماوات "It is Allah Who raised up the
heavens....(13:2)" How is Allah Almighty raising the heavens?
What force is Allah Almighty using to lift the
universe and to keep it in a balance as clearly mentioned in the ample the Noble
Verses above,
35:41, 79:27-28 and 55:7?
Answer:
Again, Noble Verse 13:2,
it says the Heaven was raised WITHOUT PILLARS that we would see:
الله الذي رفع السماوات بغير عمد ترونها
"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by
other than بغير pillars
that you see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each
is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His
signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord! (The
Noble Quran, 13:2)"
بغير in
Arabic means WITHOUT.
بغير عمد
ترونها
LITERALLY word-for-word means: "without
pillars you see".
So what's keeping the Heaven is the Balance of Gravity and counter Gravity that
I showed from the Glorious Quran. And science has confirmed this.
Noble Verse 13:2 means:
بغير عمد ترونها "with a force different from the pillars that you know of....(13:2)", and this force is the force of gravity and the balance between gravities in the universe that keeps the orbits in order by Allah Almighty's Will until their due time. When their time is due, the following will happen to them:
"The Day that We roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books (completed),- even as We produced the first creation, so shall We produce a new one: a promise We have undertaken: truly shall We fulfil it. (The Noble Quran, 21:104)"
This is referring to the 'Cosmic Crunch' that scientists have proven will happen. You see, Allah Almighty mentioned the 'Big Bang' which originated the universe and how the universe today is constantly expanding in size:
"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe? (The Noble Quran, 21:30)"
"And the firmament, We constructed with power and skill and verily We are expanding it. (The Noble Quran, 51:47)"
After all of this constant expansion reaches its maximum, then the Cosmic Crunch will occur and the universe will shrink. And this is when "The Day ye shall see it, every mother giving suck shall forget her suckling-babe, and every pregnant female shall drop her load (unformed): thou shalt see mankind as in a drunken riot, yet not drunk: but dreadful will be the Wrath of God. (The Noble Quran, 22:2)"

Also, Dr. Zaghlool's scientific explanation of the earth and heaven coming to Allah Almighty "willingly or unwillingly" and how each celestial object behaves differently depending on its mass.

Moon
Orbit Miracle: This is the short version of the long article below. Allah Almighty said this about the moon's S-shaped orbit around the earth: 36:39 والقمر قدرناه منازل حتى عاد كالعرجون القديم "And We have decreed set phases for the moon, until it ends up عاد looking like an old date branch كالعرجون القديم. It is not for the sun to overtake the moon nor for the night to outstrip the day; each one is swimming in a sphere. (Qur'an, 36:39-40)"

For ample more proofs, please visit: www.answering-christianity.com/moon_orbit_miracle.htm |
(ii)- How do we know that Allah Almighty meant "force" here?
Aren't you inserting "force" into the text??
Allah Almighty used such expression many times in the Noble Quran. Let us look at the following Noble Verses:
"Indeed, it is Allah Who splits (and initiates the germination of) the seeds of grain as well as the pit-stones of the fruit trees. He causes the living to emerge from the lifeless, and He brings out the lifeless from the living. Such is your Allah! So why are you being diverted away (from the truth)? (The Noble Quran, 6:95)""Oh you who believe! Do not be like the unbelievers. About their brothers who travel in the land or go into battle, they say, “Had they been with us they would not have died. They would not have been killed. “ Allah has let such notions be the source of (sorrow and) a bewailing (mournful) lament in their hearts. It is Allah Who gives life and death! And Allah watches everything you do! (The Noble Quran, 3:156)"
"Allah will definitely grant the exquisite riches to those who emigrate for the sake of Allah, and in doing so are slain or happen to die. Indeed, it is Allah Who is the best of the providers! (The Noble Quran, 22:58)""Because it is Allah Who wraps the night over the day, and rolls up the day over the night. Surely, Allah is All-hearing and All-seeing. (The Noble Quran, 22:61)"
"It is Allah Who sends the winds, which raise the clouds. He then spreads them in the sky, as He wants. He makes (the weather) dark and downcast, and eventually you see the raindrops trickling down from the clouds. He causes rain to pour down upon such of His servants, as He wants. They feel happy! (The Noble Quran, 30:48)""It is Allah Who created you as a frail and feeble form _ (an infant). Then He lets your weakness evolve into strength. After that, He (again) makes your strength dwindle into a state of weakness _ a senile old age! He creates whatever He wants! He is all Knowing, the Omnipotent! (The Noble Quran, 30:54)"
"It is Allah Who sends the winds, then stirs the clouds into action and drives them towards the dead and barren land. Thus, after its death, We bring the land back to life! Your return to life (after your death) shall also happen in the same manner. (The Noble Quran, 35:9)"35:41 ان الله يمسك السماوات والارض ان تزولا ولئن زالتا ان امسكهما من احد من بعده انه كان حليما غفورا
"Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving! (The Noble Quran, 35:41)"
"It is Allah Who has calmed the oceans for you, in order to let the ships sail through them by His command, and so that you may seek His blessings. Perhaps you would express gratitude. (The Noble Quran, 45:12)"
Furthermore, and again, Allah Almighty Said that He Created everything in the Universe and maintains it through due balance:
"Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving! (The Noble Quran, 35:41)"
"(Oh mankind)! Are you the harder to create, or is it the heavens which He built? He raised its vault high, and gave it balance. (The Noble Quran, 79:27-28)"
"He raised the
sky far above, and set up a
(perfect) balance.
(The Noble Quran,
55:7)"
"It is God
Who has sent down the Book in Truth,
and the Balance.
And what will make thee realise that perhaps the Hour is close at hand?
(The Noble Quran, 42:17)"
According to Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar, Allah Almighty in Noble Verse 13:2 talked about an invisible force that is lifting the Heavens. The key word here that we must pay close attention to is غير which literally means "different, " "other than," "not," or "without" in Arabic. See the Noble Verses is sub-section "b" below. Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar also said that there is a Divine reason as to why Allah Almighty explicitly mentioned the force of "pillars" (as pegs and pillars were the only known terms for support back then) that is invisible and didn't just say "It is Allah who raised the heavens without pillars." In other words, Allah Almighty told us that there are invisible reasons that only Him, the Almighty who is in full control of, as to why the heavens are raised and why its celestial bodies wouldn't come down crashing upon us, such as our moon, for instance, coming down crashing on us. This invisible force that is controlled by Allah Almighty is what we call today "gravity".
There is an intentional reason as to why Allah Almighty talked about an invisible support or force that is "holding" the Heavens!
(c)- The Arabic word غير throughout the Noble Quran:
As mentioned, غير literally means"different, " "other than," "not," or "without" in Arabic. There are a total of 150 Noble Verses that use the Arabic word, and every single one of them used it for a condition to negate another. Let us look few examples of how the Noble Word was used throughout the Noble Quran:
1:7 صراط الذين انعمت عليهم غير المغضوب عليهم ولاالضالين
"The path of those upon whom You have bestowed Your
blessings! Not the path of those who earned Your wrath, or erred
and went astray. (The Noble Quran, 1:7)"
2:59 فبدل الذين ظلموا قولا غير الذي قيل لهم فانزلنا على الذين ظلموا رجزا من السماء بما كانوا يفسقون
"But the evildoers changed the word that was prescribed
to them, to one that was quite different. Therefore, from the sky
We sent down a blight upon the evil doers, because they used to disobey
repeatedly. (The Noble Quran, 2:59)"
2:61 واذ قلتم ياموسى لن نصبر على طعام واحد فادع لنا ربك يخرج لنا مما تنبت الارض من بقلها وقثائها وفومها وعدسها وبصلها قال اتستبدلون الذي هو ادنى بالذي هو خير اهبطوا مصرا فان لكم ماسالتم وضربت عليهم الذلة والمسكنة وباؤوا بغضب من الله ذلك بانهم كانوا يكفرون بايات الله ويقتلون النبيين بغير الحق ذلك بما عصوا وكانوا يعتدون
"And (remember) when you said, “Oh Musa! We are weary
of just one kind of food (all the time). So call your Lord for us and ask Him to
provide us with what the earth produces _ the herbs, the cucumbers, the corn,
the garlic and the onions. (Musa) said, “Do you want to substitute the superior
(and the sublime) with that which is petty _ (the mean and the mundane)? Go and
settle in any town, and there you will find all that you ask for.” Disgrace and
wretchedness were decreed for them. They drew the wrath of Allah upon
themselves, because they repeatedly rejected the revelations (and signs) of
Allah, and (because) they killed the prophets without a reason!
Because they disobeyed, and used to stray beyond the bounds!
(The Noble Quran, 2:61)"
2:212 زين للذين كفروا الحياة الدنيا ويسخرون من الذين امنوا والذين اتقوا فوقهم يوم القيامة والله يرزق من يشاء بغير حساب
"The (temporal) life of this world has been made
attractive and adorable for the unbelievers. So they scoff (and poke fun) at
those who believe. On the day of resurrection, far superior to them would be
those who fear (Allah, and are dutiful). Allah gives (the provisions)
without any limit to whom He pleases.
(The Noble Quran, 2:212)"
2:230 فان طلقها فلا تحل له من بعد حتى تنكح زوجا غيره فان طلقها فلا جناح عليهما ان يتراجعا ان ظنا ان يقيما حدود الله وتلك حدود الله يبينها لقوم يعلمون
"If he divorces her (for the third time), then she shall be unlawful for him thereafter, unless she weds another man and he (too) divorces her. (In that case), there is no sin upon the two if they come together (in wedlock), provided they think that they can observe (and stay within) the bounds of Allah. These are the bounds of Allah, and He expounds them for the nation that understands. (The Noble Quran, 2:230)"
3- The different and well-measured gravities that exist in every planet, every star and every galaxy that keep the entire Universe swimming in circular motions, perfectly, without going out of balance:
Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar [2] spoke in great details about this in his Arabic video. Soon, insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty is Willing), I will provide thorough details from renowned Western sources, as I always do, and in English, demonstrating and proving the PERFECT BALANCE that Allah Almighty talked about in the Noble Verses above, which is none other than the balanced gravities of the celestial bodies in the universe and the perfect system that Allah Almighty put which allows for those bodies to swim in circular motions so perfectly without spinning off and getting lost and causing ciaos.
And again, the balance of gravity that Allah Almighty has put on earth, and its relationship with our atmosphere's Ozone layer, and their relationship with the counter gravities in space, including the moon, is what perfectly keeps our sky up without either going down or going up, and also is what keeps our Ozone layer a protective roof (as Allah Almighty precisely Said about it). This is the Balance that Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran. If such Balance between gravities didn't exist, then even our air and Ozone Layer would've vanished into space and life on earth would've been impossible, and if there was a prevailing gravity from earth, then our air pressure would've been unbearable, and everything on earth would've been just too heavy; not to mention also our moon would've eventually collided with our planet since it is only approximately 360,000 miles away.
The following video-files, in English, on my web site, do provide great information and ample different Noble Verses from the Noble Quran on orbits and how they are kept in balance:
The following audio-files, in English, are also relevant:
The origins of the Universe, Big Bang theory, Cosmic Crunch, and the creation of the SECOND EARTH after the second Big Bang in the Noble Quran and Science. Also, Dr. Zaghlool's scientific explanation of the earth and heaven coming to Allah Almighty "willingly or unwillingly" and how each celestial object behaves differently depending on its mass.
The following text-articles, in English, are also relevant:

Moon
Orbit Miracle: This is the short version of the long article below. Allah Almighty said this about the moon's S-shaped orbit around the earth: 36:39 والقمر قدرناه منازل حتى عاد كالعرجون القديم "And We have decreed set phases for the moon, until it ends up عاد looking like an old date branch كالعرجون القديم. It is not for the sun to overtake the moon nor for the night to outstrip the day; each one is swimming in a sphere. (Qur'an, 36:39-40)"

4- Conclusion:
Again, the Noble Quran is 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 soon 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)"
Allah Almighty Said that when the Cosmic Crunch occurs, and the Hour's time has come, or is about to come, the earth will lose or abandon much of its mass and gravity through the excessive stretching of it, and also through the violent volcanoes and earthquakes. This is certainly Scientifically accurate and is quite possible and probable.
Also, in regards to gravity and the balance, Allah Almighty talked about the invisible force and invisible balance of gravities that He uses to hold the universe up and to keep it perfectly balanced. The Universe was not known to man 1,500 years ago, and no one knew about its cyclical systems, orbits, the expanding universe, the big bang and the future cosmic crunch of the universe, the speed of light, the water cycle and the fertilizing winds that without them rain would never be possible, low air pressure and lack of oxygen in space, the egg-shape of the earth, the earth's motion, the Ozone layer and it being our "protected roof", the moon's S-shaped orbit around our planet earth, the breathing cycle on our planet, the mystery of iron, and so much more that our video, audio and text files above thoroughly demonstrate. Yet, the Noble Quran's Divine Claims about all of these and more were all proven to be in perfect agreement with science.
And again, the balance of gravity that Allah Almighty has put on earth, and its relationship with our atmosphere's Ozone layer, and their relationship with the counter gravities in space, including the moon, is what perfectly keeps our sky up without either going down or going up, and also is what keeps our Ozone layer a protective roof (as Allah Almighty precisely Said about it). This is the Balance that Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran. If such Balance between gravities didn't exist, then even our air and Ozone Layer would've vanished into space and life on earth would've been impossible, and if there was a prevailing gravity from earth, then our air pressure would've been unbearable, and everything on earth would've been just too heavy; not to mention also our moon would've eventually collided with our planet since it is only approximately 360,000 miles away.
Indeed, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty alone for making the Noble Quran 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.

Question:
Is the Quran implying the
universe has a roof and that pieces of it
can fall on the earth ?
Answer:
As'salamu Alaikum dear
brother, As'salamu Alaikum dear brothers, Yes akhi Ramihs, the interpretation by Ibn Kathir is wrong about the protective roof being a dome, because people back then had no idea what the Ozon Layer was, and how the Universe operated. As to protective roof being solid, the Glorious Quran doesn't say solid. It says protective. I also showed that the Noble Verse speaks about a singular Heaven, our local sky. And I gave proofs on this above.

| The egg-shaped
earth's orbit!
This is not the only time Allah Almighty used a notion for astronomy. In another Noble Verse, He described the shape of the earth's orbit around the sun as egg-shaped which had also been confirmed by science. Please visit: If the Noble Quran says the earth is "egg-shaped" through a Notion, then why couldn't Prophet Muhammad just say it clear in plain Arabic? with detailed proofs demonstrating the miracle of the Word/Notion "dahaha". |

Quran's
STUNNING
Divine Miracles:
[1] Here are some of my favorite Stunning Numerical and Scientific Miracles in the Glorious Quran that are listed in the main sections, below: 1- The root for message and all of its derivatives, such as messenger and others occurs 513 times throughout the Glorious Quran. The Prophets' and Messengers', peace be upon them, actual names (Muhammad, Moses, Noah, Abraham, Lot etc....) were also all combined mentioned 513 times in the Glorious Quran. The detailed breakdown of all of this is thoroughly listed here.
Coincidence?

1,000s
of examples! [1]
(zip file). 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.
4- 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's number 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. See the XLS file for 100% confirmation. Also, see the ample STUNNING Numerical Miracles in the Glorious Quran, with 1,000s of examples! [1] (zip file).
