Mention of Expansion of the universe in the Quran

    In this blog, I have written about the verse of the Quran in which Allah told us about the expansion of the universe.

Translation of Verse 47 of Surah Adh-Dhariyat

"We built the universe with ˹great˺ might, and We are certainly expanding ˹it˺."

Explanation

   In this verse, Allah mentions he created the universe and he is the one who is expanding it. It was In 1929, Hubble proved that the universe is not static but rather expanding, whereas, before this, people used to believe that the universe was static. Allah told about this in the Quran 1400 years ago. This leaves us with no doubt that the Quran is the word of Allah because it mentions these scientific facts in such an accurate manner. No Human at that time could know this fact, but only Allah could know this because he has created this universe, and nothing is hidden from his wisdom.

Time dilation deals with the fact that time is not absolute but relative. In general, time dilation is defined as how fast or how slow time will pass depending on the reference frame (accelerating/moving or non-accelerating/at rest or speeds much slower than...

Mention of the Verse of the Holy Quran which talks about time being relative

   In this article, I wrote about the verse of the Quran, which mentions time being relative. Translation of Verse 47 of Surah Al-Hajj They challenge you, O Prophet, to hasten the torment(Day of Judgment/Doom's Day). And Allah will never fail in His promise. But a day with your Lord is indeed like a thousand years by your counting. Explanation                        At the beginning of this verse of Surah Al-Hajj, Allah says that the infidels challenge the Prophet Muhammad SAW in bringing the Day of Judgment or the Doom's Day before its actual time. They do so to see those punishments quickly, which they are promised by Allah for their misdeeds. It is also clearly mentioned in the second part of this verse that Allah will never fail in his promise which means that those people who have done misdeeds and disobeyed Allah will surely be punished on the day of Judgment. The last part of this verse talks about a concept in...
