The science of modern cosmology clearly shows that, at one point of time, the whole universe was nothing but a cloud of 'smoke’. This is one of the recognized main beliefs of standard modern cosmology. Scientists now observe new stars forming out of the leftovers of that 'smoke'.
: A new star forming out of a cloud of gas and dust.
The illuminating stars you and me both see at night were just as was the whole universe when it first formed. God has said in the Qu’ran:
"Then He turned to the heaven when it was smoke..." 41:111
because the Earth and the heavens have been formed from
This same 'smoke,' we assume that the earth and the heavenly bodies were one connected body. Then out of this homogenous 'smoke,' they formed and separated from each other. God has also said in the Qu’ran:
"Have not those who disbelieved known that the heavens and the earth were one connected entity, and then we separated them..." 21:30
The Qu’ran in this verse has thoroughly explained a mystery that was new to the greatest physicists. This verse shows that at one time the heavens and the Earth were one entity, and then expanded away from each other. Recent studies clearly indicate that the 'Big Bang' theory supports the Qu’ran. The Big Bang theory states that 20,000,000,000 massive years ago the universe began with an explosion that started the spark of life. The greatest gift from Allah. Bu we have to remember this life is only a test, the true life lies ahead, ‘The Day of Judgement.’
The universe started fro, a single point, an area with ‘zero volume’, which translated from boffin terms means from an area of nothingness. So if it was made from nothingness than someone had to have created it. To better explain this concept of expanding, I would give you an example. Imagine a balloon with two marked d points on; than imagine the balloon being blown up, as you would see, the points would move away from each other as the balloon expands in size. We know from this that our present universe was shaped from a single point that now creates our present universe. Many scientists have argued this case, but some have still is disproved of this. Dr. Alfred Kroner, one of the scientists that have accepted the Qu’ran must be true, has said, "Thinking where Muhammad came from... I think it is almost impossible that he could have known about things like the common origin of the universe because scientists have found out within the last few years with very complicated methods and advanced technological methods, that this is the case."
Another scientist has contended: "Somebody who did not know something about nuclear physics fourteen hundred years ago could not, I think, be in a position to find out from his own mind for instance, that the Earth and heavens had the same origin."
So there you go my fellow brothers and sisters, scientists searched for an answer to this mystery but they had no clue that anything like this would be in the Qu’ran. Something, which took centuries to prove, was already proved in the Qu’ran and no one, not even the disbelievers can say that Allah does not exist. I mean how else could someone 14 centuries ago know this when it took our generation advanced and sophisticated equipment to understand.
