    Peace FearGod,

    No soul can believe except in accordance with GOD's will. For He places
    a curse upon those who refuse to understand.

    Say, "Look at all the signs in the heavens and the earth." All the proofs
    and all the warnings can never help people who decided to disbelieve.

    and

    I will divert from My revelations those who are arrogant on earth, without
    justification. Consequently, when they see every kind of proof they will not believe.
    And when they see the path of guidance they will not adopt it as their path, but
    when they see the path of straying they will adopt it as their path. This is the
    consequence of their rejecting our proofs, and being totally heedless thereof.

    and

    Even if a Quran caused mountains to move, or the earth to tear asunder,
    or the dead to speak (they will not believe). GOD controls all things. Is it not time
    for the believers to give up and realize that if GOD willed, He could have guided all
    the people? The disbelievers will continue to suffer disasters, as a consequence of
    their own works, or have disasters strike close to them, until GOD's promise is fulfilled.
    GOD will never change the predetermined destiny.

    and finally

    In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

    Say, "O you disbelievers.

    "I do not worship what you worship.

    "Nor do you worship what I worship.

    "Nor will I ever worship what you worship.

    "Nor will you ever worship what I worship.

    "To you is your way, and to me is my way."

    GOD BLESS

    peace

      Peace, FearGod.

      i don't believe that we're in the 21th century and there is still some one ignorants about simple informations in cosmology

      Watch this video it may help you to understand that there is still smoke and there is still new stars born from it.

      It appears that YOU are the ignorant one. Can you not understand that "gas" and "smoke" are two different things?

      The problem is one of 2,either you have a difficulty to understand or you don't want to understand.

      I'm not going to debate the second point anymore with you, because you clearly don't know what you're talking about... Do some research. Until you understand what you're trying to assert, then this is a pointless discussion.

      Peace,

      Ahmad

        Your problem is even more than ignorance.

        We have 3 states, gas,liquid and solid.

        Now you are confused if the smoke is liquid,solid or gas
        Just try to touch the smoke and you can know if it is touchable and feels like liquid,solid or gas.
        You have a big problem,but i'll try to help you a little.

        Try to search for the word "gas" in old scriptures,then if you found one,then you may start to think & understand.

        i was afraid that you don't want to understand but i realize now that you have some difficulties to understand,so yes,debating with you is pointless since even you don't know that gas is a new word in our vocabulary.

          You clearly haven't studied the Quran, because it conflicts with the most basic of scientific ideas concerning cosmology. Let's look at the entire passage, so we can try to authenticate your position.

          Say, "Disbelieve ye verily in Him Who created the earth in two Days, and ascribe ye unto Him rivals? He is the Lord of the Worlds. He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike for (all) who ask." (Q. 419, 10)

          Ok, so this is pretty simple. It's clearly saying that God created the Earth and placed everything upon it during this period. However, the problem comes along in the next passage, which you keep foolishly pointing out

          Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said We come, obedient. (Q. 4111)

          Are you getting this now?

          Smoke is comprised of organic particles and burning material fragments, resulting in the expansive release of heated carbon. If you're proposing that this is the Quran's description of the big bang, then this creates a major problem - THERE ARE NO ORGANIC MATERIALS! So, where did the smoke come from? Again, "smoke" and "gas" are two entirely different things. If God is the Universal creator, and he also authored the Quran, then he should've already known this, and he should've cleared up the differences between the two. Otherwise, you run into clear discrepancies like this one... In addition, if you're asserting that the Quran is talking about the big bang here, then where did the Earth come from? Is the Quran claiming that the Earth was here, along with hills and vegetation ('sustenance&#039, BEFORE the big bang?

          If you read the Quran's 49th chapter (surah), from the 9th to the 11th verse (aya), you'll see that this is exactly what it's saying! And that, sir, is complete nonsense.

          i was afraid that you don't want to understand but i realize now that you have some difficulties to understand,so yes,debating with you is pointless since even you don't know that gas is a new word in our vocabulary.

          Ummm, ok... Anyway, the point is very clear; you're just unwilling to grasp it. Here's it put simply you're reading the passage and making your own interpretation of it, while I'm reading the passage exactly as it's written. Simple enough?

          Peace,

          Ahmad

            Chapter 9 Structure and Formation of Stars

            The space between stars is called interstellar medium. This space or medium is not completely devoid of matter. The space is filled with hydrogen 75% and helium 25%, traces of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, calcium, sodium, molecular hydrogen and silicates. The matter is non-uniformly distributed, presence of hot , low density gas currents circulating in the medium and generating twisted complex tangle of cool, dense clouds like the puff of a cigarette smoke.

              Peace,

              Just a thought, but is smoke not the particles of burnt materials, while gas is a substance matter?

              It is two different things I am afraid. Gas is new because ancient people did not know what gas was in the first place. Gas is one of the forms a substance can take.

              God bless you

                I get this, and this is NOT what we're talking about... Compositional elements are all derived from hydrogen, including helium. You're talking about elemental particles in space TODAY, which didn't contain the same factors prior to the big bang. Again, we're not talking about now; we're talking about billions of years ago, when there were no organic particles and (according to Islamic clerics and the general Muslim populace) no matter, since Allah created everything ex nihilo (out of nothing).

                So, again, DURING THAT TIME, where did the "smoke" come from?

                And, again, if you're proposing that the Universe was created out of smoke (since this is obviously the "gas" that you're trying to infer in your analysis of the big bang, which is completely wrong), how did this happen AFTER the Earth was already present and populated? How was the sky (or 'heavens&#039 still "smoke" while the Earth already had mountains, plants, etc.? How did God separate the Earth from the sky (or 'heavens&#039, if the Earth is still in space? Is the Quran trying to imply that the Earth is somehow separate from the Universe, or was the Earth formerly separate from the Universe when God decided to put the two (separate) objects together?

                Are you grasping this now?

                Weighing the Quran on the basis of philosophy, especially when further defined and characterized by its outstanding literary fixtures, is fine. However, trying to present it as some sort of 'science book' doesn't work, because it clearly doesn't add up. You're trying to force the Quran to agree with modern science, when it clearly doesn't.

                Peace,

                    I haven't been following this thread, and I don't mean to 'interrupt', but it seems to me that FearGod is saying the, inevitably, the Quran is using a metaphor and poetic language. It is not a book of science, seems to be the point but that does not mean it cannot align with certain principles with science. Science as a method can develop and change it doesn't stay static - which means what could sound "scientific" and "learned" to one community might sound different to another. The point with the Quran is, how do you describe natural phenomenon (natural phenomenon themselves being a way to ascertain the existence of God for all men in the case of justice and fairness which, as humans some seem to want to 'command' and 'demand' from God) without using language for the people at the time? Later people should be able to appreciate the general context.

                      Where did i say the big bang?

                      Read the verse carefully.

                      Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said We come, obedient. (4111)

                      So,the earth has been already formed similar to the new born star and at that stage the sky was still smoke.exactly the case when a new star born.

                      The origin of the universe is different than the born of earth and the status of the sky at that moment.

                      Did you understand ?

                        Thats it exactly,its about natural phenomenon and signs described in the langauge of the quran.

                          peace AB, all,

                          I haven't been reading this thread, but I happened to notice your post, see the following

                          Ok, so this is pretty simple. It's clearly saying that God created the Earth and placed everything upon it during this period. However, the problem comes along in the next passage, which you keep foolishly pointing out

                          No, the verse does not say that.

                          I find it interesting you use words such as "pretty simple" and "clearly" yet you make a mistake in what the verse is saying.

                          Please try again.

                          All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                            Peace, supportpeacenotwar.

                            I haven't been following this thread, and I don't mean to 'interrupt', but it seems to me that FearGod is saying the, inevitably, the Quran is using a metaphor and poetic language.

                            Poetic language? The Quran says that the sky (universe/heavens) was "smoke". That's not poetic, it's wrong... FearGod is proposing that the sky was literally smoke, and then, to justify his position, he is attempting to propose that "smoke" and "gas" are the same thing. They're not.

                            It is not a book of science, seems to be the point but that does not mean it cannot align with certain principles with science. Science as a method can develop and change it doesn't stay static - which means what could sound "scientific" and "learned" to one community might sound different to another.

                            Isn't this a good thing? Science doesn't claim to have all the answers. The fact that it's not static shows that scientists are constantly perfecting it; they're constantly testing their theories to make the most valid determination of what's real and what's not... One of my questions from the very beginning was, "If the Quran proposes a scientific assertion within its pages, and modern science proves that assertion to be false, what should we believe - what science says or what the scriptures say?" That's an important question.

                            Science proposes an idea of what it recognizes as "truth". If this 'truth' is proven to be false, then scientists throw away that idea and come up with something more accurate and verifiable. Religion proposes an idea of what it recognizes as truth. However, if this 'truth' is proven to be false, theists dismiss all of the scientific proofs and assert that their ideology is undoubtedly true, regardless of what the evidence says... You don't see anything wrong with this position?

                            The point with the Quran is, how do you describe natural phenomenon (natural phenomenon themselves being a way to ascertain the existence of God for all men in the case of justice and fairness which, as humans some seem to want to 'command' and 'demand' from God) without using language for the people at the time? Later people should be able to appreciate the general context.

                            That makes sense, when viewed from the perspective of primitive superstitious people. However, we are in an age of science and reason now. If the Quran was written for the 7th-century Arabs, then your claim would be valid. Yet, Muslims generally assert that the Quran was written for everyone not merely for ancient cultures, but for future generations as well... If the Quran said that the Universe was "ghaz"/gas, then we wouldn't even be having this debate. The problem is the use of the word "dukhan"/smoke, which is totally incorrect. Indeed, I see the context, and I think it's interesting. However, being interesting doesn't make it correct.

                            Peace,

                            Ahmad

                              Peace, FearGod.

                              Where did i say the big bang?

                              You're back-tracking. Look through the thread, and you'll see exactly where you said that this refers to the "big bang".

                              Read the verse carefully.

                              Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said We come, obedient. (4111)

                              So,the earth has been already formed similar to the new born star and at that stage the sky was still smoke.exactly the case when a new star born.

                              So, when are you proposing that the heaven (universe) was "dukhan"/smoke? Again, the Quran says this

                              Say, "Disbelieve ye verily in Him Who created the earth in two Days, and ascribe ye unto Him rivals? He is the Lord of the Worlds. He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike for (all) who ask." (Q. 419, 10)

                              Afterwards, the Quran says this

                              Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said We come, obedient. (Q. 4111)

                              I'm not sure how you interpret this passage; but it looks to me like the Quran is claiming that the heaven ("samaa"/sky) was smoke ("dukhan&quot AFTER "He (e.g. God) placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance". That's where your explanation completely falls through.

                              The origin of the universe is different than the born of earth and the status of the sky at that moment.

                              If we're not talking about the origin of the Universe, then what "moment" are you referring to? When is the Quran claiming that God told the heaven and the Earth to 'come together willingly or unwillingly'?

                              Peace,

                              Ahmad

                                Peace, Wakas.

                                No, the verse does not say that.

                                I find it interesting you use words such as "pretty simple" and "clearly" yet you make a mistake in what the verse is saying.

                                The passage says this

                                Say "Disbelieve ye verily in Him Who created the earth in two Days, and ascribe ye unto Him rivals? He is the Lord of the Worlds. He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike for (all) who ask. Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said We come, obedient." (Q. 419-11)

                                Please tell us how you interpret this passage. It seems "pretty simple" to me; but I could be 'mistaken', and I'm more than willing to hear your explanation (and interpretation) of this event. Please share it. Thanks.

                                Peace,

                                Ahmad

                                  The verses are very clear that the smoke state was after the formation of earth exactly the state once the star is formed and which is described even among scientists as the cosmic cigar.

                                  Bright newborn stars glisten like dew in the rosy-hued core of M17, also called the Omega nebula. This newly released picture, from the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, is one of the sharpest views of Omega yet taken from the ground.

                                  The nebula's dark dust and glowing gas are the raw materials for star formation, and Omega is one of the most active stellar nurseries for massive stars in the Milky Way.

                                  As seen in this visible-light image, the nebula's hydrogen gas glows red to our eyes because it's being illuminated by intense ultraviolet radiation from the hot, young stars inside. This may be one reason another popular name for M17 is the Lobster nebula.

                                  It is the moment of forming the planet earth,but i'm afraid you are thinking the day at that time was 24 hours,every thing is expected from you.

                                    peace AB,

                                    Ok, so this is pretty simple. It's clearly saying that God created the Earth and placed everything upon it during this period. However, the problem comes along in the next passage, which you keep foolishly pointing out

                                    The verse does not say "placed". Simple.

                                    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                                      Again, this makes absolutely no sense, because the Quran says that the Earth already had hills and sustenance on it!

                                      Here's a basic concept for you to ponder How was there sustenance (e.g. food and drink, vegetation and possibly animals) on the Earth, when the sky was "dukhan"/smoke? If you want to talk about the 'cosmic cigar' (I assume you're talking about cosmic dust particles), then you need to understand some very basic astronomical concepts that refute your point -

                                      1. Cosmic dust is NOT "smoke".
                                      2. Cosmic dust is present all the time; it doesn't merely occur directly after the formation of stars.
                                      3. Vegetation (or sustenance) didn't "appear" on the Earth directly after its formation.

                                      It is the moment of forming the planet earth,but i'm afraid you are thinking the day at that time was 24 hours,every thing is expected from you.

                                      I'm not talking about a literal 'moment', I'm talking about a general time period. The Quran says that during this 'moment' (period), God put the heaven and the Earth, which were apparently two entirely separate entities, together into one mass. Again, when did this happen? Does modern cosmology also agree that the Earth was once 'separate' from the rest of the Universe, and that the Earth somehow merged with the rest of the Universe AFTER it already had hills and vegetation on it?

                                      Peace,

                                      Ahmad

                                          you're trying hard to refute the truth.

                                          This Irregular Galaxy is found in the galaxy Ursa Major, Discovered by Johann Elert Bode on December 31,1774. It is commonly referred to as M82 or Messier 82, as well as the Cigar Galaxy. It can appear to be an irregular galaxy, and could have been a deformed disk galaxy. This is an exciting galaxy that is mostly known for the concentrated, newly forming of stars. An interesting fact about this Cigar Galaxy is that it is the brightest galaxy in the sky under infrared. The galaxy also emitted an explosive gas flow which was a robust origin of radio noise. The gasses are caused by the outflow of the active star formation. As the stars form inside the Cigar Galaxy there are colossal winds formed that exert gas and dust outward.

                                          The Cigar Galaxy used to be similar in size to our own galaxy until the forces from M81, a neighboring galaxy, acted upon it and lost its spiral shape and began forming stars. You can easily see the dust cloud in the image pictured on the outer area of the galaxy. This dust cloud was spread out due to the neighboring galaxies interaction. The dust is what gives it its irregular shape because we are looking at the galaxy from the side view. The bright formations in the center are the newly formed or forming stars. The barrage of new star formation in M82 is 50 times more prevalent than other galaxies.The irregular shape does not fit into any category of galaxies, hence the "irregular" name. This Cigar Galaxy is part of a classification of galaxies that make up less than 20% of all galaxies, being irregular. M82 is approximately 12 million light years away. The linear size of the galaxy is 22,000 light years.

                                          I'm not talking about a literal 'moment', I'm talking about a general time period. The Quran says that during this 'moment' (period), God put the heaven and the Earth, which were apparently two entirely separate entities, together into one mass. Again, when did this happen? Does modern cosmology also agree that the Earth was once 'separate' from the rest of the Universe, and that the Earth somehow merged with the rest of the Universe AFTER it already had hills and vegetation on it?

                                          it seems that you are trolling,and trolling has no end.

                                          Again you are saying there was vegetation at that moment,who said there was vegetation,please which verse says so.
