IS THERE EXTRA TERRESTRIAL LIFE
-
Yes. There is no such thing as the universe in the Quran. It is just the heavens above and the Earth below. D
Of course there is a universe. God created it. I suggest you book a Virgin Airlines flight to the universe to see it for yourself. It's only $ 10,000.

Peace all,
I am a firm believer in extra-terrestrial lifeforms outside of our solar system. If one looks at the almost incomprehensibly immense dimensions of this universe, the countless galaxies with literally billions upon billions of stars like our own (sun), it is almost certain by simple laws of probability that such life forms such as, or similar to our own exist. The problem with detection of such civilizations lies within the unimaginably vast distances between them.
At our present technology level, we cannot even leave our own solar system, let alone galaxy in a lifetime. To contact, or even detect such civilizations would take technology hundreds, if not thousands of years beyond our current level. The problem with this is that on a universal time scale, man-like civilizations are only around for the galactic equivalent of a blink of an eye. That is, any civilization like our own would simply not have enough time to develop such technologies before they cease to exist.
Now, if mankind were a truly benevolent race, we most likely would be around for such developments, however and quite unfortunately, mankind is predisposed to wars and violence i.e. a quasi-benevolent race. The energy and resources we use to develop 'defense' technology, as well as the resources used for excessive self-gain, rather than the greater good, handicap us as a civilization and thus, prevent us from utilizing these resources for furtherment of the human race as a whole.
I sincerely believe that there are other races of human-like beings out there that have managed to grasp this, or perhaps they were simply born a more benevolent race and subsequently, have used the resources for the betterment of all. This would substantially accelerate the pace at which technology is developed, and also provide a means of protection from global extinction (such as a meteor, or other event). I do believe that such races come here to study, or simply just observe us, but are smart enough not to be detected. If you were a truly benevolent race, would you like that warring humans should some in contact with you, or God forbid, acquire some of your technology?
The mere fact that humans, as a whole are predisposed to violence in some form or another would preclude any truly benevolent race from making contact with us.
We still have a long way to go, but God-willing, someday we may get there.

If God is the creator of the universe then I am certain that there is, out of all the billions of billions of stars in the universe it would be arrogant in the extreme to believe that we are the only planet with life. It says clearly in the Bible that God made the universe and all that live in it, why would he only put life here??

In the Bible and the Quran the Earth is in the middle and covered by the Heavens. There is no other earths. D
All we want to prove is that the Earth is not moving in space. After they have rejected ether, because it proves Earth's fixation in space, it is been very difficult to prove this motionless nature of our planet.

Unfortunartely the Earth does move, it orbits the Sun which in turn orbits the galaxy which in turn orbits our local group which in turn ...................

Peace rami, Can you provide some evidence from the quran?

So are you telling me that the Sun orbits the Earth? yeah

I don't think that the quran says that the earth is in the middle like the bible says rami

Peace all,
The Sun and Moon are moving around the Earth...
132 Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that ye can see; is firmly established on the throne (of authority); He has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law)! Each one runs (its course) for a term appointed. He doth regulate all affairs, explaining the signs in detail, that ye may believe with certainty in the meeting with your Lord.
1433 And He hath made subject to you the sun and the moon, both diligently pursuing their courses; and the night and the day hath he (also) made subject to you.
1817 Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave, and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the open space in the midst of the Cave. Such are among the Signs of Allah He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray,- for him wilt thou find no protector to lead him to the Right Way.
3129 Seest thou not that Allah merges Night into Day and he merges Day into Night; that He has subjected the sun, and the moon, each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do?
555 The sun and the moon follow courses computed
2133 It is He Who created the Night and the Day, and the sun and the moon all (the celestial bodies) swim along, each in its rounded course.
3638 And the sun runs his course for a period determined for him that is the decree of (Him), the Exalted in Might, the All-Knowing.
2258 Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Lord, because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said "I give life and death". Said Abraham "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to a people unjust.
Where do you find a verse saying that the Earth is running a course? Do you really think that the Earth is moving twice the speed of a bullet without any ill effect in the atmosphere??
Peace,
Rami

I take it you are not a science major

Everything celestial body runs on a course because of gravity....The earth's gravity is nothing compared to the sun's so it orbits the sun... peace

This is the classical model. But what is gravity? From where does the Earth get all this energy to keep the moon in orbit?
See you take gravity as an abstract force to fill up the equations.

2788 Thou seest the mountains and thinkest them firmly fixed but they shall pass away as the clouds pass away (such is) the artistry of Allah, who disposes of all things in perfect order for he is well acquainted with all that ye do.
I admit that this verse apparently says that the Earth is moving, but note that it is referring to the mountains alone but in reality we think that the whole Earth is fixed not just the mountains. Also note that God is comparing it to the clouds, but where clouds actually disappear, the mountains doesn't as YOU supposedly move with it. So the mountains doesn't get out of your sight. So what is going on here? This verse is actually talking about the Last Day. A scary scene I might add. Look at the mountains, they are rigid right, when God comes with angels you will find that these mountains will disappear like the clouds so the Earth will be levelled. Just read the previous verse
2787 And the Day that the Trumpet will be sounded - then will be smitten with terror those who are in the heavens, and those who are on earth, except such as Allah will please (to exempt) and all shall come to His (Presence) as beings conscious of their lowliness.
Next verse
3640 It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day Each swims along in its own orbit.
Actually this verse proves that the Sun and the Moon are racing each other but they don't overtake. If the sun is moving toward the solar apex yada yada yada, then this overtaking business is meaningless.
Next
395 He created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions) He makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law) Each one follows a course for a time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power - He Who forgives again and again?
Again, the Sun is running a course. It is most probably a north-south spiral that goes to and forth which explains the seasons.
Next verse please
681 Nun. By the Pen and the Record which men write.
OK. Next please.
7930 And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse);
That is irrelevant to the fixity of the Earth but it is a very interesting verse. The Heavens are like a tent that was raised up then the carpet that was placed in the base of the tent is the Earth. One will ask what was in this space before. Water. His throne was on water. Some speculate that these cosmic waters are simply hydrogen and from hydrogen all elements were created.

Could you tell what exactly is gravity? Physicists are trying very hard to rationalize this mystical force.
At the time being, they take it for granted and call it gravity.
