    NASA, advanced laboratories do exist and the science works with GPS, satellites, infrared laser guidance systems, etc. and they also have nukes, drones, and missiles precisely calculated to hit a cell phone from many miles away.

    Eratosthenes (276 - 195 BCE) used geometry and shadows of sticks to estimate the circumference of the earth during the summer solstice June 21 between two locations (Alexandria and Syene, Egypt) hence had an angle and distance all that?s required. Likewise he measured tilt of the earth?s axis (23.5 degrees) which gives the seasons.

    Nice video on the math/logic used?

        Dear pazuzu

        i am really surprised to read what you wrote about flat earth
        I have to review many things in yemen theory now. -\

        it is possible that americans never landed on moon. but flat earth is totally impossible. Totally impossible.
        hope you have only been astrayed in a field that is not your speciality.

        Peace

          The darkest hour before the light

          A hidden tressure plain in sight

          For a moment standing still

          They say we're crazy, they say we're ill

          What they don't understand, they fear inside

          What they don't understand, they try to hide

          You can't hide from us! You can't

          I don't really care if the Earth is flat or not, why is it a big deal? I don't know if that was ever explained clearly.

            Brothers, I am not even sure or absolutely convinced that this whole Universe is Real, when Allah Himself tells me in the Quran on top that it is a mere illusion put together to test me if I believe or not.

            Further I spend a good solid 1/3 or more of my life sleeping, dreaming of stuff that on the whole makes little sense, and sometimes, because I suffer from a mental illness, a chemical imbalance the latest in Medicine say, I can't always realise which is true, what I dreamt or what I lived -)

            So, please...

              Which mental illness have you got and what medicines have you tried for it, and what did they do to you in the way of side effects or main effects, and which ones worked or seem to be working?

              Yeah, I consider it all just information ultimately specific to our own experience, so the Earth or the Universe being this shape or that shape seems kind of the least important thing going on.

                Not only that, but when Allah seems repeating in the Quran that as far as we are concerned, what we should be worried about is the after-life, not the one here,

                though we are meant to survive and deal with the issues of our sustenance in parallel as seeking salvation, not as opposed to it.

                  Peace,

                  In fact the Space hoaxes is in keeping with the pride business Allah warned us about.

                  Yuri Gagarin is reported to be a fake, concocted by the Russians to show how good they are at space exploration.

                  Instead of debunking them, the Americans concocted the Moon Landings.

                  Does this remind you of something?

                  The Hadiths manufacturers in Islam, the first to fabricate Hadiths were the followers of Ali, instead of exposing them, the Sahabists started making up their own to counteract.

                  Same story repeating itself ad nauseum, instead of sticking with the truth, counteracting lies with bigger lies.

                    Peace brother,

                    How could you relate two different things? I am really surprised with the responses I am seeing in here.
                    It reminds me of an instance when I said I don't believe in hadith, people decided from themselves that I don't believe in rasools, nabis, sahabas, tabaeen, tabe-tabaeen, etc. etc. etc. ???

                    You should follow what Allah has guided you to and let him follow what Allah has guided him to. How can you people force someone to change what Allah showed him? 549]

                    it is possible that americans never landed on moon. but flat earth is totally impossible. Totally impossible.
                    hope you have only been astrayed in a field that is not your speciality.

                    Red How you are so confident? hmm

                    I was thinking how powerful the gravity is. If gravity is so powerful that it can hold the ocean's water then why don't so tiny dust particles suddenly stick to the ground? hmm How do they fly so long before landing on the ground? It should land on the ground as a tiny piece of iron sticks to a huge magnet within no time.

                    So, I am interested in knowing how this earth gravity is working? Anyone interested in explaining it please? Thanks.

                    May Allah increase our knowledge and guide us on His path pr

                      If you are so interested in gravity, maybe you should study Physics, as you need to use tools and experiment to prove or disprove a theory, and the tools are knowledge and apparatus of experimentation.

                      Otherwise, rely on the "experts" which guys like pazuzu don't trust anymore...

                      It's like saying you don't trust medicine and doctors, then stop using them, and good luck to you when you need help with your health...

                      There is a huge difference between theology and practical day to day coping strategies, Allah wants us to be clear about whom the real Boss is, everything else practical, we discover and do as long as He allows us to, within the limits He imposed, and gravity is one of them, since we cannot float naturally, if you disbelieve in gravity, they try floating, LOL! ;-)...

                        This is not the answer to my question.

                        Red If I would have believed and relied on "experts", I would ended up a pagan. My Lord is the one who guides not so called "experts".

                          Peace,

                          OK, so when you have to submit to a surgical operation by a Surgeon, or take medicines prescribed to you by a Med, or rely on any piece of technology, you do have to rely on the expertise of those who do these things, no?

                          Otherwise, do you leave it to Allah and not use any?

                          Cause and effect are the means to operate in this world, finding out how they do is our job as humans, Allah ensures it is stable and reliable, and we depend on that, I hope you agree?

                                Yet you rely on technology to post on the Internet? you don't seem to trust Allah enough to convey your messages more directly, like with thoughts?
                                Where do you live? do you use some means of transportation, or is it the good trusted donkey, mule, camel or horse?
                                getting your water from a lake, or is it tap or bottled water?
                                I can carry on...
                                Causes will be discontinued for newer ones on the other side, this side is a world of causes and effects.

                                    It reminds me of an instance when I said I don't believe in hadith, people decided from themselves that I don't believe in rasools, nabis, sahabas, tabaeen, tabe-tabaeen, etc. etc. etc. ???

                                    You should follow what Allah has guided you to and let him follow what Allah has guided him to. How can you people force someone to change what Allah showed him? 549]

                                    Red How you are so confident? hmm

                                    I was thinking how powerful the gravity is. If gravity is so powerful that it can hold the ocean's water then why don't so tiny dust particles suddenly stick to the ground? hmm How do they fly so long before landing on the ground? It should land on the ground as a tiny piece of iron sticks to a huge magnet within no time.

                                    So, I am interested in knowing how this earth gravity is working? Anyone interested in explaining it please? Thanks.

                                    May Allah increase our knowledge and guide us on His path pr

                                    Salam brother mmkhan and all,

                                    I concur with brother mmkhan. Those of you who does not agree to bro Pazuzu, i suggested to have further discussion professionally. Dont because of one thread, which in this case, makes all those who does not agree to have an animosity attitude towards him. THAT IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!

                                    WAKE UP PEOPLE

                                    PEACE

                                      What do you mean by professionally, when someone rules out all Science, Engineering, Physics and says point blank that the Earth is Flat, flashes a few quotes from known dodgy characters, and dodgy poor videos and pictures, not even having the humility to say that they might be wrong.

                                      I see here a kind of hatred towards Science and anything that does not conform with an idea someone has settled for into themselves.

                                      If you want humility, then demonstrate some too, it's not just a one way process, I am right, to hell with you so to speak, this is what I get from Flat or Concave Earthers and other conspiracy nuts, who don't even have the credentials of basic knowledge.

                                      Didn't Allah say that above each one knowledgeable, there is always one with more knowledge.

                                      I appeal to humility, being humble, not arrogant like Satan.

                                      As I said, Science uses models to explain things, they are not perfect, but they work, if you get a better model, then we use it, but usually, older models do not get put in the bin unless it is really necessary.

                                      On global matters, it is speculation, Flat, Round, Concave, I have ultimately no idea, what I know is that within the model Science community has settled with, the Earth is round, there are planets, the universe is expanding, and it is hypothesised it started with a Big Bang, right or wrong, I personally don't care, I am more bothered with not getting barbecued in Hell, and the Quran is enough to try and avoid that.

                                      Now if I had the means, I would verify this for myself in a big way, and if Allah allows me, I would.

                                      End of comms.

                                        You know very well what I mean. Please show me that Pazuzu ruled out Science, Engineering, Physics?

                                        I see here a kind of hatred towards Science and anything that does not conform with an idea someone has settled for into themselves.

                                        I dont see that. What I see is a thread and it is subject to further discussion like all other thread.

                                        If you want humility, then demonstrate some too, it's not just a one way process, I am right, to hell with you so to speak, this is what I get from Flat or Concave Earthers and other conspiracy nuts, who don't even have the credentials of basic knowledge.

                                        What are you talking about?

                                        Didn't Allah say that above each one knowledgeable, there is always one with more knowledge.

                                        This is just a thread where people discuss on certain issue. I dont see anything that is against the ALLAH's law?

                                        I appeal to humility, being humble, not arrogant like Satan.

                                        What has Pazuzu done that makes him arrogant like Satan. You making accusation. Is this not the work of Satan???

                                          Peace,
                                          You know for someone who uses the nick of Hezbollah, did you ask permission from the group, or are you an official member, LOL!

                                          I respected pazuzu with his work on Yemen which I accepted, so it is a deep shock to me to see him taking on the Flat Earthers concept, because it puts all his effort on Yemen in jeopardy.

                                          I feel for this because I have been advertising his essays on twitter on the matter, and arguing for what he wrote.

                                          There is no way I will do such a thing with Flat Earth because I deeply disagree with it.

                                          I do not act as a groupie to someone, I act on what I figured out for myself, Flat Earth is not convincing to me, and it is too much ridiculed to start evangelising for it, whereas there are more important matters to deal with now on Earth, flat, concave or round.

                                          Waste your time away discussing Flat Earth, and encouraging others believing it, I am not one of them.
