1- Allah Almighty's Divine claim:
Allah Almighty made the Arabs a "Middle Nation" (Quran 2:143). Noble Chapter 2 is made of 286 Noble Verses. Noble Verse 143 is in the exact Middle of 286 (2 X 143 = 286). The article contains a small clip from an atheist who tried to refute the Glorious Quran. He ended up mathematically proving that the perfect center (golden ratio's latitude and longitude perfect point) of the entire earth is in the center of Arabia (276 kilometers east of Mecca) using Google Earth. The Numerical and Geographic Divine Miracle is clear, especially that we have thousands of them [2] in the Glorious Quran. So this is no mere coincidence.
Let us look at what Allah Almighty
said in the Glorious Quran:
Noble Verse(s) 2:143 |
Arabic (Read from right to left. Also, all png image files: [1]
[2]): 2:143 وكذلك جعلناكم امة وسطا لتكونوا شهداء على الناس ويكون الرسول عليكم شهيدا وماجعلنا القبلة التي كنت عليهاالا لنعلم من يتبع الرسول ممن ينقلب على عقبيه وان كانت لكبيرة الا على الذين هدى الله وماكان الله ليضيع ايمانكم ان الله بالناس لرؤوف رحيم Pickthall: [002:143] Thus We have appointed you a middle nation, that ye may be witnesses against mankind, and that the messenger may be a witness against you. And We appointed the qiblah which ye formerly observed only that We might know him who followeth the messenger, from him who turneth on his heels. In truth it was a hard (test) save for those whom Allah guided. But it was not Allah's purpose that your faith should be in vain, for Allah is Full of Pity, Merciful toward mankind.Sale: [002:143] Thus have we placed you, O Arabians, an intermediate nation, that ye may be witnesses against the rest of mankind, and that the Apostle may be a witness against you. We appointed the Keblah towards which thou didst formerly pray, only that we might know him who followeth the Apostle, from him who turneth back on his heel; though this change seem a great matter, unless unto those whom God hath directed. But God will not render your faith of none effect; for God is gracious and merciful unto man.Palmer: [002:143] Thus have we made you a middle nation, to be witnesses against men, and that the Apostle may be a witness against you. We have not appointed the qiblah on which thou wert agreed, save that we might know who follows the Apostle from him who turns upon his heels although it is a great thing save to those whom God doth guide. But God will not waste your faith, for verily, God with men is kind and merciful.Arberry: [002:143] Thus We appointed you a midmost nation that you might be witnesses to the people, and that the Messenger might be a witness to you; and We did not appoint the direction thou wast facing, except that We might know who followed the Messenger from him who turned on his heels -- though it were a grave thing save for those whom God has guided; but God would never leave your faith to waste - truly, God is All-gentle with the people, All-compassionate.Rodwell: [002:143] Thus have we made you a central people, that ye may be witnesses in regard to mankind, and that the apostle may be a witness in regard to you. We appointed the kebla which thou formerly hadst, only that we might know him who followeth the apostle, from him who turneth on his heels: The change is a difficulty, but not to those whom God hath guided. But God will not let your faith be fruitless; for unto man is God Merciful, Gracious. |

2- Scientific proofs and refutations:
Article #1:
Again, the following video contains a small clip from an atheist who tried to refute the Glorious Quran. Allah Almighty made the Arabs a "Middle Nation" (Quran 2:143). Noble Chapter 2 is made of 286 Noble Verses. Noble Verse 143 is in the exact Middle of 286 (2 X 143 = 286). The clip mathematically proves that the perfect center (golden ratio's latitude and longitude perfect point) of the entire earth is in the center of Arabia (276 kilometers east of Mecca) using Google Earth. The Numerical and Geographic Divine Miracle is clear, especially that we have thousands of them [2] in the Glorious Quran. So this is no mere coincidence:

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? See 1,000s of examples! [1]. (zip file). Quran's Stunning Numerical & Scientific Miracles. Stunning Prophecies [2] [3] 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).. See also the ample Textual Miracles [2] in the Glorious Quran, where Noble Words are spelled in certain ways depending on their certain historical and geographical context and timing in the Noble Verse.

3- Colonizing Mars & praying and fasting time determination:
Colonizing Mars
& Praying and Fasting: [1]
https://www.answering-christianity.com/sci_prophecy.htm Ok, so how will we then
calculate/reckon Fasting and Praying on other planets? It will have
to be done through reasonable calculations based on either the
sunrises and sets of those planets, or by calculating and setting
fixed times. Similarly,
our North and South Poles' Prayer and Fasting time determination are
done based on fixing certain times, usually based on the near by
lands' sunrise and sunset cycles or the city of Mecca's timings, and their vertical time zones.
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, commanded the Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") to make
an estimate about the time of Prayer if they're not sure: When it is not possible to determine time for Prayer and Fasting, Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") must اقْدُرُوا لَهُ قَدْرَهُ (make an estimate of time) instead: "....Thereupon he (the Prophet) said: No, but you must make an estimate of time اقْدُرُوا لَهُ قَدْرَهُ (and then observe prayer)...." (Sahih Muslim Book 41, Number 7015, and Sunan Abu Dawud, Hadith 4321) "...Thereupon he said, "No, but you must make an estimate of time and then offer Salat (Prayer).''..." (Source 1,2)
From the Glorious Quran: Since many Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") and disbelievers think the Quran in itself is lacking (I thoroughly destroyed this via demonstrating 200+ Moral Code Commands from the Quran), then allow me to dismantle this nonsense also here in this example. Prophet Muhammad's Hadith above certainly further proves that the Quran-proofs below are 100% valid. The Prophet's commands CAN NOT contradict the Glorious Quran.
In the following Noble Verse, we
have both a Numerical and Geographical Miracle engineered by Allah
Almighty: Middle Nation Quran-Miracle. Allah Almighty made the Arabs a "Middle Nation" (Quran 2:143). Noble Chapter 2 is made of 286 Noble Verses. Noble Verse 143 is in the exact Middle of 286 (2 X 143 = 286). The article also contains a small clip from an atheist who tried to refute the Glorious Quran. He ended up mathematically proving that the perfect center (golden ratio's latitude and longitude perfect point) of the entire earth is in the center of Arabia (276 kilometers east of Mecca) using Google Earth. The Numerical and Geographic Divine Miracle is clear, especially that we have thousands of them [2] in the Glorious Quran. So this is no mere coincidence: Since Allah Almighty has a Divine Purpose and Design to make Arabia the center of the world, and made this both a Numerical and Geological Miracle, then we can certainly use Arabia's, - preferably city of Mecca's, - determined times, as the point of reference in places where we are unable to visually determine the sunrise and sunset's proper timings, whether here on earth or on Mars. Noble Verse 2:143 above even says this: [002:143] Thus We appointed you a Middle Nation that you might be witnesses to the people,..
Primitive Times vs. Today: So here Arabia can certainly witness the times for praying and fasting for those who are unable to determine them on their own. During primitive times, Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") could just make time estimates and pray and fast using their honest estimations: [073:020] .....But God doth appoint night and day in due measure He knoweth that ye are unable to keep count thereof.... But since today we are technologically advanced, and we have fulfilled the penetrating space Quranic Prophecy, then using technology and matching the time to Mecca is the best:
