Quran Miracle: Correct Description Of Early Universe

Animation Of Molecular Cloud

Big bang nucleosynthesis tells us that after just one-second old universe was at a temperature of 10 million Kelvin and the whole universe was nothing but a cloud of Smoke and Plasma. Huge gaseous matter or clouds were present before the formation of the galaxies. To describe initial celestial matter, the word smoke is more appropriate than gas. Even now new stars are forming inside dark, cold molecular clouds from Material called Interstellar Medium, which is mostly hydrogen neutral and ionized, helium, dust particles surrounded by frozen water & other stuff like carbon, nitrogen, etc. All that in the heavens all stars and galaxies all have been formed from this same smoke.

Now look that almost 1400 years ago this is what the Quran told us in Surah Fussilat 41:11. The fact that this verse revealed regarding the universe’s initial gaseous state is a miracle.

١١ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَهِيَ دُخَانٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَلِلْأَرْضِ ائْتِيَا طَوْعًا أَوْ كَرْهًا قَالَتَا أَتَيْنَا طَائِعِينَ

Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, “Come [into being], willingly or by compulsion.” They said, “We have come willingly.”  Surah Fussilat 41:11

A Synthesis of Religions: The Case of God

Praise belongs to God, the Lord of all realms, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, the One who shaped the human being from clay and breathed into him of His Spirit; the One who sent Messengers, one after another, bearing truth, guidance, and the balance, so that mankind may stand upon justice and not transgress its bounds.

Here is a discourse meant not to conquer but to illuminate,
 Not to divide but to gather,
 Not to exalt the writer but to exalt the Word of God. So approach with hearts unburdened,
 With intellects awakened,
 With spirits yearning for the Mercy of the All-Merciful. For the earth endures by His command,
 And knowledge is a trust,
 And every soul shall be returned to its Lord.
