Some of the miracles of the Quran - What you must know

The Big Bang

“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?” Quran 21:30

This verse is describing the big bang. Science tells us that in the beginning there was a primordial dust cloud that drew together, compacted together as one unit and exploded outwards. ³⁵⁵ ³⁵⁶
Science also tells us every living thing is made from water and contains water.

The Heavens and Earth

Then He lifted Himself to heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth, "Come willingly, or unwillingly!" They said, "We come willingly." Quran 41:11

Scientist previously thought the universe was created from gases.
Today scientists tell us that smoke is a more closer and scientific description than originally what scientists thought was gas. ³⁵⁷

The Expanding Universe

In 1925 American astronomer Edwin Hubble proved that the Universe is expanding. ³⁵⁸ 1400 years ago this verse was revealed to a desert man.
“And it is We Who have built the Universe, and behold, We are steadily expanding it.” Quran 51:47

The Shape of the Earth

“And more, He has extended the earth (far and wide also in the shape of an egg)” Quran 79:30
The Arabic word for egg used here is “dahaha”, which derives from the root word “duhya” which specifically means ostrich egg.
The earth as we know is not perfectly round but is like an Oblate Spheriod, flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator. A similar shape to the ostrich egg. Sir Francis Drake only discovered the earth was spherical in 1577. ³⁵⁷

Iron

“And We sent down iron, wherein is great might, and many uses for men, and so that God might know who helps Him, and His Messengers, in the Unseen. Surely God is All-strong, All-mighty.” Quran 57:25
Note “We sent down iron”, meaning it was not part of this earth and God sent it down. It is a fact that iron is not of this earth and is alien to our planet. ³⁵⁹ ³⁶⁰

This above verse is from the 57^th chapter of the Quran called “Al-Hadid” meaning “The Iron”. Interestingly enough the numeric value of the words “Al-Hadid” is 57 which is the same as the number of the chapter.
If you take the word “Hadid” alone which literally means Iron, the numerical value of this word is 26. In the periodic table Iron’s periodic atom number is 26. The atomic number is worked out by the number of protons in an atom of an element. ³⁶⁰
This book was revealed 1400 years ago.

Mountains

“Did We not make the earth a resting place?”
“And the mountains as pegs (stabilisers)?” Quran 78:6-7

“And he pitched mountains on the earth, lest it move away with you; and rivers, and roads, so that you may be guided.” Quran 16:15

The Quran has many verses which talk about the role of mountains. From the Quran we know that mountains are described as pegs or stakes on the earth that hold the continents in place.

In 1865 Sir George Airy introduced the theory of mountains having deep roots. ³⁶¹ From time to time earth plates shifted around and carried the continents with them. As the plates collide oceanic and continental mountains are formed. The mountains are formed from below sea level and the visible mountain mass is the deficiency of the mountain mass below sea level.
If the mountains were not formed the collisions would have been faster and more drastic. Once the mountains are formed the mountains hold the land in place and does act as a stabiliser preventing the land from moving away. ³⁶² Imagine this being written about 1400 years ago.

The Deep seas and Internal waves.

“Or (the unbelievers’ state) is like the darkness in a deep sea. It is covered by waves, above which are waves, above which are clouds. Darknesses, one above another. If a man stretches out his hand, he cannot see it…” Quran 24:40

The astonishing thing about the above verse is it is mentioning that there is no light at the bottom of the sea and there are internal waves.
It is impossible for any human beings to venture deeper than 200 meters without submarines or special equipment. ³⁶¹ 1800 meters or more no light penetrates this area. ³⁶³ So the Quran is accurate about no light being there. The second waves we can see with the human eye but the first waves mentioned can only been seen by studying temperature or salinity changes at a given location. ³⁶¹ How did a man from the desert know this 1400 years ago?

Embryology

There are many verses (too many to list) that describe how a baby is formed in the mother’s womb. They had no microscopes 1400 years ago. The earliest microscope was built in the 16^th Century. ³⁶⁴

“As far as it is know from the history of Embryology little was known about the staging and classification of human embryos until the 20th Century.
For this reason, the descriptions of the human embryo in the Quran cannot be based on scientific knowledge in the 7th century. The only reasonable conclusion is that these descriptions were revealed to Mohammed from God.” ³⁶¹

Dr Keith L Moore, a world renounced scientist in the fields of clinical anatomy, embryology etc.

The Frontal Lobe

“Nay! If he (Abu Jahl) ceases not, We will catch him by the forelock,”
“A lying, sinful forelock!” Quran 96:15-16

This verse was sent down regarding Abu Jahl, who was a polytheist tyrant and was one of the greatest persecutors of Muslims at that time. He also used to take any opportunity to rebuke and humiliate the prophet in public.
It is amazing how the Quran pinpointed exactly which part of brain is used when a person lies.

The human brain is divided into four major sections called lobes: The frontal lobe (highlighted in blue), occipital lobe (highlighted in red), parietal lobe (highlighted in green), and temporal lobe (highlighted in orange). ³⁶⁵

The occipital lobe processes visual information (i.e. colours, shapes, distance)
The temporal lobe is responsible for memory and new learning, and everything to do with hearing.

The parietal lobe has all to do with touch perception, audio and visual recognition, body movements or moving objects. ³⁶⁶

The frontal lobe is responsible for conscious thought, concentration, judgment, problem solving, forward and critical thinking, decision making (choice between good and bad actions, future consequences).
Brain cells in the prefrontal cortex (where the frontal lobe is ³⁶⁵) work harder when someone is lying compared to telling the truth. It is a scientific fact that pathological liars have been shown to have more white matter than grey matter in the prefrontal cortex of their brain compared to other people.

The forelocks sits exactly on top of prefrontal cortex. The part of the brain which is used the most when a person lies. ³⁶⁶

Word repitition in the Quran

1400 years ago there were no computers to input the Quran and count the following words. Examine how words and their opposite or equivalent counterparts are repeated the same number of times throughout the book, It is impossible that man could have created such a book with such precision and order. Please note these counts have been done with the Quran in the original source Arabic language (not with any translations).

“Or do they say: ‘He (Muhammad) has forged it?’ Say: ‘Bring then a Surah (chapter) like unto it, and call upon whomsoever you can, besides God, if you are truthful!’” Quran 10:38

The Fly

“Oh Mankind! Here is an example for you to listen and listen carefully! Those you worship other than God can never create as much as a fly, even if they get together to do so; If the fly was to snatch something (food) from them they would not be able to recover it from the fly. How feeble are such worshippers and that which they worship.” Quran 22:73

Flies do not have teeth, they cannot chew solid food. They only feed on liquids. They have a long tube that sticks down from their head called the proboscis. All foods are absorbed via the proboscis, though the foods have to be liquid.
As soon as the fly grabs/snatches solid food it vomits their stomach contents onto it (digestive enzymes) which instantly break down the food. The food is liquidised as is absorbed by the proboscis. ³⁷¹

So once the food is snatched by the fly, you will never be able to recover it.

The Finger print

“Does man think that We cannot [resurrect him and] bring his bones together again?”
“Yes indeed, Yes, We have the Power to restore even his finger tips with finger prints perfectly!”
Quran 75:3-4
Finger printing identification has been used since the 19^th century. No two fingerprints are ever alike, they are unique. ³⁷²
1400 years ago there was no computerisation, filing systems, or classification systems to learn the uniqueness of the fingerprint but its uniqueness was recorded in the Quran as mentioned in the above verse. ³⁶⁹

The Bee

“And your Lord revealed to the (female word for) bee: "Take for yourself dwelling-place in the mountains, and in the trees, and in what they (human beings) may build and weave.”
“Then (female word for) eat thou of all the fruits and (female word for) follow the ways of thy Lord made easy. There springeth forth from (female word for) their bellies a drink varied in colours; therein is healing for mankind; verily therein is a sign for a people who reflect.” Quran 16:69

For centuries man had no idea which sex of the bee goes out to gather food. Most would presume it was the male bee. Modern science discovered that the male bee never leaves his home to gather food. But it is the female honey bees that gathers the food and they report to the Queen bee.
1400 years ago a book tells you accurately the sex of the bee that gathers food. ³⁶⁹

The quote above was taken from Chapter 16 of the Quran called “The Bee”. Interesting enough the male bee has 16 chromosomes and the female be literally has a pair of 32 chromosome (16 from queens eggs and 16 from drones sperm). ³⁷³ ³⁷⁰
