The size of the paradise
-
There is 2 verses in the quran explaining the size of the paradise.
According to the verses and calculations the distance between earth and the 7th layer of heaven (Solar system) should be 4583662361 Km
Does that number make sense as to be the distance from earth to a point in the 7th layer in our solar system.
The given data from the quran
And they demand of thee to hasten the chastisement! God will not fail His promise; and surely a day with thy Lord is as a thousand years of your counting.(2247)
And We have built above you seven firmaments (7812) earth to Pluto
Strive with one another in hastening toward forgiveness from your Lord and toward ;a Garden whereof the width is as the width of the heavens and the earth gotten ready for those who beiieve in Allah and His apostles. This is the grace of Allah; He vouchsafeth It Unto whomsoever He will; and Allah is Owner of mighty grace. (5721)
So from the verses we got the following data
1 day is equal to 1000 years of ours
Our heaven consist of seven layers above us.
The diameter of the paradise is equal to the width of earth plus heaven

size of Paradise
calculations.
24 hrs to complete one cycle (40000 km) for earth
8640000 hours to complete one cycle (Unknown) for ParadiseWe got the circumference of the Paradise to be 14400000000 Km
The diameter of the paradise is 4583662361 Km which explained in other verse to be the distance between earth and the 7th layer of our heaven.

I think The 7 comes from 7 life births, this concept is available in all Indian religious thoughts, where one attains divinity or heaven in 7 life births. Ancient people here believed when leading a life of monk hood or living in austerity, fasting, vegetarian food etc to attain enlightment stage which they call the previous stage before heaven.

interesting!!!
Thank youPS
I think all Bible and Qur'an are allegorical, no need for physical calculations... laugh -
Peace,
I think it is difficult to know how the Paradise will look or its size. All I feel is that it does not need to be particularly big because there will not be many people in it.
Perhaps it is dynamic and adaptable to the need for one particular moment, like a computer program so more space in the virtual world can be added as necessary.
God bless you

There are many fallacious assumption in your thought process above.
It's "God is living in Paradise" thus "God's one count of day = Paradise one count of day".
Which is not true.The saying of "a day with thy Lord is as a thousand years of your counting" is allegorical, it means that His Promise shall come although it might takes a 'long time' to human reckoning. And not as baseline data to count the size of a hypothetical planet called "Paradise".
-
Yes.
We should realize our own assumptions. Paradise, whatever that is, is probably something of a kind that we have no real imagination. So we should be careful ascribing properties of time and 3D-space to it. We project our current world onto it, without justification.

Which is not true.Why it isn't true ? please clarify.
What is your evidence that makes you sure to be untrue ?The saying of "a day with thy Lord is as a thousand years of your counting" is allegorical, it means that His Promise shall come although it might takes a 'long time' to human reckoning. And not as baseline data to count the size of a hypothetical planet called "Paradise".
i don't interpret allegorical verses because it is a misleading and mostly used by the Baha'i followers.
He sent down to you this scripture, containing straightforward verses - which constitute the essence of the scripture - as well as multiple-meaning, or allegorical verses. Those who harbor doubts in their hearts will pursue the multiple-meaning verses to create confusion, and to extricate a certain meaning. None knows the true meaning thereof except God and those well founded in knowledge. They say, "We believe in this - all of it comes from our Lord." Only those who possess intelligence will take heed.
We know from the quran that God was in the paradise talking with Adam,angels and Iblis and we know that our return is to him for the judgement day.
He directs the affair from heaven to earth, then it goes up to Him in one day, whose measure is a thousand years of your counting. (325)
The verse is very clear and that also known in the bible, so it is irrational to distort the verse by making a guess as to be a metaphor while it isn't.
Why it is exactly a thousand year of our counting,why not years,why not thousands,why it is fixed to a thousand of our counting.
Please reply with logic and evidence than just an arbitrary reply.
-
Why it isn't true ? please clarify.
What is your evidence that makes you sure to be untrue ?Because (my perception of my) God is that IT does not have a 'home planet', or reside in a specific place, whatever is the name of that place.
If your God is a being which has a 'home planet' or reside in a specific place, then I am an atheist of your God.i don't interpret allegorical verses because it is a misleading and mostly used by the Baha'i followers.
Who is Baha'i? Anyway it's irrelevant to this discussion..

So in your perception there's a latency of one thousand years earth time for information from planet Earth to reach planet Paradise thus (your) God?
As thus there's another one thousand years earth time latency for (your) God's decree to arrive back to earth.
In total two thousand years of earth time latency (Round-Trip)If that's the case, there's definitely no use of praying, since by the time the prayer arrived at the place of (your) God, the prayee has been long dead.
The above explanation is a logical consequences of your assumption.
As thus we don't have the same perception of "What Is God".While my perception of God, fits perfectly with Jesus perception of "Heavenly Father", Lao Tse perception of Tao, and Hindus perception of Brahman.

If your God is a being which has a 'home planet' or reside in a specific place, then I am an atheist of your God.So you think God is hanging somewhere in the vacuum.
Explain then how God has his own throne
And it is He who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and His Throne was upon the waters -- that He might try you, which one of you is fairer in works. And if thou sayest, you shall surely be raised up after death, the unbelievers will say, This is naught but a manifest sorcery. (117)
Who is Baha'i? Anyway it's irrelevant to this discussion..
Baha'i are followers of Baha'ullah,most of the verses to them is metaphors,exactly similar to your views.
So in your perception there's a latency of one thousand years earth time for information from planet Earth to reach planet Paradise thus (your) God?
As thus there's another one thousand years earth time latency for (your) God's decree to arrive back to earth.
In total two thousand years of earth time latency (Round-Trip)What you are talking about,what round trip ? God rides planes ?
God directs all affairs from his throne in a day which is equivalent to a thousand of our counting.
Lo! your Lord is Allah Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days, then He established Himself upon the Throne, directing all things. There is no intercessor (with Him) save after His permission. That is Allah, your Lord, so worship Him. Oh, will ye not remind? (103)
If that's the case, there's definitely no use of praying, since by the time the prayer arrived at the place of (your) God, the prayee has been long dead.
Prayers don't travel by rockets,i am writing to you by now and it'll reach you in a second even if you are a thousands of miles away of me.
The above explanation is a logical consequences of your assumption.
As thus we don't have the same perception of "What Is God".I showed you the proof from the quran,whereas you are talking only from your own mind
While my perception of God, fits perfectly with Jesus perception of "Heavenly Father", Lao Tse perception of Tao, and Hindus perception of Brahman.

Which perception ? would you please explain what is your perception of God ? i proved to you that you were wrong from the quran.

Like I said, it's either a 'metaphor', thus your perception of it's meaning is incorrect.
Or it's literal,that (your) God does sits on a throne located in the planet called Paradise, have a latency of of "One God's Day which is equal to one thousand earth year" to pass the decision.

Show me just one verse saying God has no home.Try to be consistent on your reasoning, if your God is 1000 years away, and since nothing can travel faster than light.
Then you can also deduct your reasoning to conclude that your God's home and his throne is within 1000 light years radius from earth.
Which means that your God's home is still within our Milky Way Galaxy.Thus I conclude that your God is definitely an Alien being living somewhere in Milky Way Galaxy.

The particles move faster than light does through a particular medium.

There is also the case of a laser accelerating photons through cesium vapor at 310 times the speed of light in a vacuum.
This is only with current science--and ALLAH only need say "be" in any case. What happens when space time is folded? hmm Imagine if a sheet of paper were one light year across, but it was folded so that the ends touch--how long would it take to travel from one end to the next?
I believe that much that we read about Paradise (the example of, remember?) is metaphorical. Beg pardon if the physics is too far off topic.
ALLAH knows best.

I am at a loss as to how anybody could start setting parameters to God and say where he "lives" or from where He does this or that.
?What? Are we going to get a God to the size of our own capability to conceive thiings that exist or do not exist? Where are those places when you die? What do you conceive whrn you die?
Why not discuss elfs' or fairies countries or planets?
On the other hand I have the understanding that seven in Arabic speech is a figure for large numbers, uncountable numbers. So the seven samawat may be a figure whcih means many, uncountable samawat...

Taoism is a philosophy which is man made,i don't know how you could find the truth in following the ideas of men about the unknown supernatural power.
God sent us messengers to show us the correct path and not to make guesses such as the case in Taoism which is in my opinion not that far from Atheism as the universe thought to be created without a need of specific God .
God Guides you to his right path if you deserve his guidance.

There is also the case of a laser accelerating photons through cesium vapor at 310 times the speed of light in a vacuum.
The current hypthesis is Those particles and accelerating photons is not traveling at all times evenly through space.
They jumped between "our space" and "beyond our space". Which also the basic theory for "Warp Drive" , bending space rather than traveling through it.Even now we do understand that every particle is "Blinking".
The findings become the foundation of "String Theory" which opened up the possibility of "Multiple Universe".
http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theoryThus the hypothesis of "God has a home or specific location" is ridiculous with the 'revelation' of "Multiple Universe".
This is only with current science--and ALLAH only need say "be" in any case. What happens when space time is folded? hmm Imagine if a sheet of paper were one light year across, but it was folded so that the ends touch--how long would it take to travel from one end to the next?
That's exactly how "Warp Drive" works.
Even when space and time (as we know it) doesn't exist, Allah/Brahman/Tao/Heavenly Father still exist.
Thus it's kind of 'ridiculous' that Allah/Brahman/Tao/Heavenly Father has a 'location' or 'home'.
There's no need for Allah/Brahman/Tao/Heavenly Father to 'travel' since it's here there everywhere and beyond.And is it not amazing that a chinese who lived 2600 years ago and an Indian who lived 3000 years ago have written about the existence of such 'thing' ?

But God isn't a man and also where did i say that God sit on a chair.
Warp drive is a theoretical method of "BENDING SPACE" and not "TRAVELING THROUGH SPACE".
So you think thats it,the maximum velocity is the light on our universe and no need to think beyond that.
Dr. White told the New York Times that since nature can travel at warp speeds, there is a chance that humans can figure out how to do it too.
So it seems that Doctor Laurence Brown's God is also my God.
So your God answered his prayer,which one Tao or the father in heaven and then not Allah.
Your hypocrisy is obvious.My God know the content of any prayer even before it was being said. (fits well with definition of Heavenly Father as cited by Jesus)
It doesn't take him/it 1000 years to reckon and answer it.
My God doesn't have a home and/or location, since he/it's here there everywhere and beyond. (fits well with definition of Tao and Brahman)
My God is not a human thus it (literally) sits on a throne.Yes your God is homeless and has no specific size,so he is maybe nothingness or his size is the size of the whole universe but still formless.
And doesn't fit your definition of God which is God directs all affairs from his throne in a day which is equivalent to a thousand of our counting.
You are insisting to say that God has no location then you contradict yourself by accepting the concept of the heavenly father so you have located him somewhere in heaven and also accepted him as being a father.
Have you read the book?
Thus you can pass such judgement?

Again the father in heaven seems more logical than the one God that has no son.
Your own God is formless and homeless, my question to you
Does your God see or he is blind.
If he is able to see,how he could see.
Does he see everything all at the same moment.
Is your God spreading himself everywhere and so he settled himself everywhere and not in specific location.
Do you believe on Angels that do serve God and executing his orders or do you think that God does all the work. -
So your God answered his prayer,which one Tao or the father in heaven and then not Allah.
TAO/Father In Heaven/Brahman is just another name of my God.
I exclude Allah from that list, since your perception of Allah is clearly different from my perception of God.Your hypocrisy is obvious.

It's "BENDING SPACE" and not "TRAVELING EVENLY THROUGH SPACE", thus the name "WARP".
Space are bent all over the place.
Even the space all around and near you.

Oh I forgot you said his home is in Planet Paradise.
So where is this Planet Paradise the home of your God?A simple question, which you haven't been able to answer up to this point.
Heavenly Father DOES NOT mean his home is in a location called "Heaven".
I use the hebrew version of "Heavenly Father" then to avoid the confusion, "AVINU SEBASHAMAYIM".
As for "AVINU SEBASHAMAYIM" a.k.a YHVH"Do I not fill heaven and earth? declares YHVH"
Jeremiah 2324"And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together"
Colossians 117Which fits very well with definition of TAO, BRAHMAN and my perception of God.

If he is able to see,how he could see.My God "see" (in metaphorical sense and not in literal sense in the way that human sees through their eyes) everything.
Does he see everything all at the same moment.
He "See" what's happening at the moment at all place.
He "See" what's happening in the future at all place.
He "See" what's happening in the past at all place.That's why I say it's different than human understanding of "Seeing"...
Is your God spreading himself everywhere and so he settled himself everywhere and not in specific location.
NO, The Space and time is spread within my God.
And my God is the one who spread it.
Thus there's no need of "Settling" or "Traveling" because he is not confined within Space and Time.
Space and Time depends on my God and not my God depends on Space and Time.While your God depends on Space, since he has a home in Planet Paradise.

The Tao that is the subject of discussion is not the true Tao.
The quality which can be named is not its true attribute.
That which was before Heaven and Earth is called the Non-Existent.
The Existent is the mother of all things.
Therefore doth the wise man seek after the first mystery of the Non-Existent, while seeing in that which exists the Ultimates thereof.
The Non-Existent and Existent are identical in all but name.
This identity of apparent opposites I call the profound, the great deep, the open door of bewilderment.Translated by Walter Gorn Old (1904)

TAO/Father In Heaven/Brahman is just another name of my God.
I exclude Allah from that list, since your perception of Allah is clearly different from my perception of God.Of course Allah isn't the same as your fictional deities.
One of your deity of Taoism is called The Jade Emperor.A story of the origin of the Jade Emperor is given in a Taoist scriptural text called Collected Scriptures on the Fundamental Deeds of the Lofty Jade Emperor ( Gaoshang Yuhuang Benxing Jijing). He was born of his parents the Supreme Lord of the Great Tao ( Taishang Dadaojun) and the Empress of Precious Moonlight ( Baoyueguang Huanghou). As a young child, his character and conduct was always marked by wisdom, kindness, and compassion. After he grew up, he inherited his father?s throne, but later renounced it to pursue spiritual cultivation. He achieved immortality after many thousands of eons of cultivation, and after another hundred million eons, he attained to the rank of the supreme Jade Emperor.

** WARNING AD HOMINEM DETECTED **
In case you don't know what AD HOMINEM is
http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominemNo it isn't AD Hominem but you was indeed a hypocrite.
I showed you a video for Dr. Lawrence telling his own story which caused him to be guided to Islam and to believe in Allah but your comments that Tao is the one who answered his prayer and then not Allah.Hypocrisy??
You mean the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform. ?
Explain whyYour comments that Tao answered his prayers without having your proof is lying and hence you are a hypocrite.
And I can clearly see that you haven't even read the Tao The Ching book and you blatantly pass judgement about it.
And what is the name for "THOSE WHO PASS JUDGEMENT ABOUT SOMETHING WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE"?I said to you i don't follow man made beliefs,yours is a philosophy combined with religious belief,it is a distortion of religion.
It's "BENDING SPACE" and not "TRAVELING EVENLY THROUGH SPACE", thus the name "WARP".
Space are bent all over the place.
Even the space all around and near you.
You can't see it or detect it but you can see the implication of it.I ain't discussing the mechanism or how it works but the result is achieving a traveling speed which is faster than the light.
Warp drive is a technology allowing faster-than-light travel through space, creating warp fields and forming a subspace bubble surrounding a starship, which, in turn, forms a distortion in space-time and allows the starship's movement to exceed the speed of light. The rates of movement above the speed of light are known as warp factors.

NO, The Space and time is spread within my God.
And my God is the one who spread it.
Thus there's no need of "Settling" or "Traveling" because he is not confined within Space and Time.
Space and Time depends on my God and not my God depends on Space and Time.While your God depends on Space, since he has a home in Planet Paradise.
Salam / Peace
So your God size is infinite.
Please from which source you know that God size is infinite.
What is your logic ?
Is it because the universe is huge then God should be so huge as well ?Should we be as tall as the skyscraper to built one ?
Why the size of the universe should be less than the size of God and to be within God's size ?
Please explain.Peace

Of course Allah isn't the same as your fictional deities.
One of your deity of Taoism is called The Jade Emperor.A story of the origin of the Jade Emperor is given in a Taoist scriptural text called Collected Scriptures on the Fundamental Deeds of the Lofty Jade Emperor ( Gaoshang Yuhuang Benxing Jijing). He was born of his parents the Supreme Lord of the Great Tao ( Taishang Dadaojun) and the Empress of Precious Moonlight ( Baoyueguang Huanghou). As a young child, his character and conduct was always marked by wisdom, kindness, and compassion. After he grew up, he inherited his father?s throne, but later renounced it to pursue spiritual cultivation. He achieved immortality after many thousands of eons of cultivation, and after another hundred million eons, he attained to the rank of the supreme Jade Emperor.

It's the same as this
http//www.crystalinks.com/zeusgoldstatue.jpgAnd that's what happened when one view IT as human...
The picture above is another myth invented by human.
Like I said READ TAO THE CHING DIRECTLY and not the myth..
And apparently you haven't read it.. yet you pass judgement on it.I said to you i don't follow man made beliefs,yours is a philosophy combined with religious belief,it is a distortion of religion.
You follow your own belief, and you're a human.
And you viewed God as if it was a human.I ain't discussing the mechanism or how it works but the result is achieving a traveling speed which is faster than the light.
You need to understand how it works because 'nothing can be faster than light' is tightly coupled with condition of "within this space".
With warping/bending space, the object is not travelling faster than light from his own perspective, but it seems to be from other than him perspective.My thread about the size of paradise and not its location.
So you are supporting your point with verses from the bible whereas you didn't accept the verses from the quran.
FYI,the throne of God was mentioned multiple times in the bible.
Educate yourself (Throne of God) http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throne_of_GodAnd you said that Paradise is the home of your God?
I'll address this again below..What do you mean he can see but not similar to us.How can you create something without looking at it,lets speak logic.
Clearly you viewed your God as a human...
Did God created Adam from distance.
So your God was located near Adam when He created Adam?
How did your God create Adam? Sitting on his throne and create Adam with his hands?
In Paradise which is his home?So your God size is infinite.
What is your logic ? Is it because the universe is huge then God should be so huge as well ?
Should we be as tall as the skyscraper to built one ?
Why the size of the universe should be less than the size of God and to be within God's size ?
This universe cannot contain my God.
And what's the size of your God?But will ELOHYM indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
-- 1 Kings 827But who is able to build him an house, seeing the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain Him?
-- 2 Chronicles 26Your God has a home, where is he? Where is his home?
My God did asked the same rhetorical question once..Thus saith YHVH
The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
-- Isaiah 661"Can a man hide himself in hiding places So I do not see him?" declares YHVH.
"Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?" declares YHVH
-- Jeremiah 2324
