Quran on the Beginning of the Universe

   In this blog, I have written about the verse of the Quran, which tells us about the beginning of the universe.

Translation of Verse 30 of Surah Al-Anbiya

Do the disbelievers not realize that the heavens and earth were ˹once˺ one mass, then We split them apart? And We created from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?

Explanation 

     In the above-mentioned verse of the Quran. Allah told us that he created the universe from one mass, and then from that, he split the heavens and earth. The Big Bang Theory agrees a lot with this verse of the Holy Quran. The Big Bang theory tells us that in the beginning, the universe was a singularity and at that point, it had infinite density, energy, and temperature. Then it exploded(expanded very rapidly) into existence and, as a result, created matter, which further evolved to form planets, stars galaxies, etc. This process of rapid explosion is referred to as Cosmic inflation. From that point until now, the universe has been expanding. In the above-mentioned verse, one mass points to a point known as singularity a point where space and time were combined together. The second part of the verse tells us that every living thing is made of water. Today, science has told us that water is an essential part of life. It makes up about 90 per cent of the weight of some organisms. In the case of humans, it makes up about 60 per cent of our weight. This verse of the Quran gives proof of the divinity of the Quran. Otherwise, a man in the 7th century could never know these scientific facts with such accuracy and it also inspires us to read the Quran not only for our guidance to the right path but also to know the immense amount of knowledge hidden in between the verses of the Quran.

Moon doesn't have its own Light

 In this blog, I have written about the verse of the Quran in which Allah has told us that the Moon doesn't have its own light but it just reflects the light of the Sun.

Surah Al-Furqan Verse 61

"Blessed is the One Who has placed constellations in the sky, as well as a ˹radiant˺ lamp (Sun) and a luminous moon."

Explanation

                     In this verse of the Quran, Allah has clearly mentioned that it is the Sun which has its own light, whereas the Moon reflects the Light of the Sun or is illuminated by the light of the Sun. We discovered this fact just recently while it was mentioned in the Quran 1400 years ago at a time when science didn't have the expertise to discover these facts, so there is no way that people at that time could ever know this. The only possibility is that the creator of this universe told them in the Quran and that creator is Allah SWT. It also proves the Quran is the word of Allah sent to us for our guidance.
