Ice in CometsThe Quran says that water originally came from the heavens and brought life to a dead Earth:
[Quran 2.164] In the creation of the Heavens and the Earth; In the alternation of the night and the day; In the sailing of the ships through the sees with what benefits mankind; In the water which Allah sent down from the Heavens and brought with it life to Earth after being dead and gave life in it to every kind of land animal; And in directing the winds; And in the clouds that are enslaved between the Heavens and the Earth; [All these] are Signs for a people who comprehend.
Here God is not talking about
rain (matar or wadk in Arabic) instead God is talking about water (ma-e in Arabic). The clouds are enslaved between (bayna in Arabic) the Heavens and the Earth but the water itself originally came from the Heavens (above the clouds).
Science says that water on Earth actually came from outer space, particularly
from ice in comets and meteors. When those comets enter our atmosphere, the heat generated on entry
vaporizes this ice into the atmosphere. Moslems say that this is what Allah
says. God says that there are mountains in heaven that have ice inside them.
Those mountains could fall on Earth making a very bright flash.
[Quran 24.43] Can't you see that Allah makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a pile? Then you see rain come out from within? And He sends down from heaven mountains with ice inside them; that strike whomever He wishes or miss whoever He wishes; Its flash almost blinds you.
An
observer on Earth sees the path of the moon as circular around Earth, right?
But due to the motion of the Earth-moon system around the sun, distant observers would see the path of the moon as a sine wave
around the sun. Do you
remember how fabric is woven? That is if you trace a thread it would make a
sine wave? This is
exactly how distant observers would see the path of moons around planets
around stars and
the path of planets around stars around...
[Quran 51.7] And the heaven that has paths of weaves (Hubuk in Arabic).
Here God swears by the Heaven that has celestial paths that make weaves. (Hubuk is plural of Habka which means a weave).
As the massive celestial bodies move in space, their gravity sucks in the small debris of rocks and gas. Do you know how to sweep the ground? Well this is how planets and stars sweep their paths.
[Quran 81.15-16] So I [Allah] shall swear by the planets that recede, 16 that move, that sweep (Kunnas in Arabic).
"Miknasa" in Arabic means a sweeping brush. "Kannasa" is the past tense of sweep. "Kunnas" means those who sweep. God swears by the planets that move and sweep.
Rotation of Earth Slowing Down
Earth is a sphere. Moslems say that this is what Allah says. The Quran says that
when the night and the day overlap, they make a ball (sphere):
[Quran 39.5] [Allah] Created the heavens and the Earth in truth. He overlaps [Yukawer in Arabic] the night over the day and overlaps [Yukawer] the day over the night, and enslaved the sun and the moon. Everything moves to a prerecorded destiny [on the Preserved Tablet]. Is He not the Exalted, the Forgiver?
The Arabic word "Kura" means ball; its verb "Yukawer" means: to make into a ball. The Quran says that the overlapping of the night and the day makes a ball (sphere).
Science says that the rotation of Earth is slowing down, that is, days are getting longer. Moslems say that this is what Allah says. The Quran says that Allah persistently asks more of the day and more of the night, that is, for the day to get longer:
[Quran 7.54] And your Lord, Allah, who created the Heavens and the Earth in six days and then settled on the Throne (as reference). [Allah] Covers the night with the day, asks for it persistently; and the sun and the moon and the stars enslaved by His orders. Is this not His creation and His command? Blessed be Allah the Lord of all the worlds.
Tectonics
Earth's crust has been slowly moving for billions of
years. Not only mountains are still slowly moving but also whole continents.
Moslems say that this is what Allah says:
[Quran 27.88] You see the mountains and think they are firmly fixed: but they are moving away just like the clouds are moving away: (such is) the artistry of Allah, Who disposes of all things in perfect order: for He knows all what you do.
Atmospheric
Pressure
Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude; The higher the
altitude the more difficult breathing becomes.
Moslems say that this is what Allah says. The Quran says that as we ascend
to the sky it becomes more difficult for us to breath:
[Quran 6.125] Those whom Allah wants to guide, He opens their chests to Islam; And those whom He wants to leave astray, He makes their chests tight and constricted, as if they are ascending to the sky: Such is the penalty of Allah on those who refuse to believe.
Brain
Functions
For centuries it was thought that the frontal part of the human brain
handled vision (simply because it is near the eyes). Today we know that this part handles speech,
not vision. The part that handles vision turned out to be at the rear
of the brain (click

The Quran says
that disbelievers will be dragged from there liar forehead, that is, the speech
part where they utter lies is at the forehead.
[Quran 96.16] A lying sinful forehead.
Signature
The Quran turned out to have a signature:
The count of all chapters in the Quran is a multiple of 19.
The count of all verses in all the Quran is a multiple of 19.
The sum of all digits mentioned in the Quran is a multiple of 19.
The count of the word "Allah" in all the Quran is a multiple of 19.
The sum of all verse numbers (Ayat numbers) in which the word "Allah" appears is a multiple of 19.
Some chapters start with letters that have no meaning at all. When we add the
number of occurrences of those letters in their chapters we always get a multiple of
19... So if anyone changed a single word containing those letters in the Quran the signature would have
been broken.
God says that He assigned 19 angels to guard Hell, and He made their count "19" so that believers will increase their faith:
[Quran 74.30] Over it are Nineteen (angels). 31 And We have set none but angels as guardians to this fire; and We have fixed their number only as a trial for nonbelievers. So that the People of the Book may arrive to certainty. Hence believers may increase their faith and no doubts may be left for the People of the Book and the believers. And so that those of wicked hearts and the nonbelievers may say "What does Allah intend by this?", this is how Allah leads astray whom He pleases and guides whom He pleases. And no one can know the count of soldiers of your Lord, except Him. And this is no other than a warning to mankind.
[Quran 41.53]
We
(Allah) will show them Our signs in the universe, and in their souls, until
it becomes clear to them that It (the Quran) is the truth. Is it not enough
(for nonbelievers) that your Lord witnesses over all things?
