Expansion of the Universe in Quran!!

[faraz123]

@yastunt ... The Bible uses Elohim as well. That's why saying Allah and Yahweh are different is wrong.. Obviously Yahweh and Elohim are used interchangeably in the Bible so they are the same "figure".. Elohim like I said before is a linguistic cognate of Allah.

[faraz123]

@StopSpamming1 muwaseeoon.. is a plural noun..

[faraz123]

@gsangha2007 Where does the Quran say they are five planets. You are inventing lies about the Quran!! You have a complex it seems!

[MrBillyBobJoeBiIl]

how does the verse explains the big bang theory?

And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: How excellently We do spread out! [Quran-51:48]

With the power and skill did we construct the Firmament; for it is We Who create the vastness of space. [Quran-51:47]

Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse, And the mountains as pegs (anchor)? [Quran-78: 6-7]

And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon Mountains firm and immovable; [Quran-15:19]

[faraz123]

That verse talks about the expansion of the universe. The big bang is mentioned in this verse: 21:30 Do the Unbelievers not see that the heavens and the earth were joined together, before We clove them asunder? We made every living thing from water. Will they not then believe?

[mafiamob2005]

Allahuakbar!!!! indeed people are ignorant to your might and signs, guide us all.

[chof0319]

STRETCHED OUT THE HEAVENS, what does that mean? Stretch doesn't mean seperation. Quran described as parted, splitted, seperated, etc.

[8arsh]

I speak Arabic and Iam well adept in translating, the Arabic word used in surah dharriyat51:47 is Musi'uuna of which comes from the root word A'saw'a; to expand, to enumerate. and (musi'uuna)is a veriation of hence: "wasi'a kursi samawati wal ard"; His seat of power extends over the heavens and earth.

[legendinho123]

stop fooling your selfs and bow to god all mighty, this more proove to the haters that the qoran is direct word from god all mighty

[yastunt]

dont be fooled by this video.A full 1300years before Mohammed, the prophet Isaiah declared:"thus says Yahweh:I STRETCHED OUT THE HEAVENS".This is why Jesus warned about "False prophets deceiving MANY"

[tarikur]

What you mean don't be fool? You don't be fool by the truth. YOu just people want to live in Lies. Look at the other miracle "word repetition" in Quran, How do explain that?

You an idiot, you actually believe Jesus' "false phophets" talk about Prophet Mohammed. There were so many claimed prophets at that time and all times. Every religion says there will be false prophets, so when someone claim to be prophet, everybody would automatically say he is false.

[yastunt]

hi tarikur - remember FOCUS ON THE ISSUE - the bible mentions space being stretched 1300 years before Mohammed - THATS THE ISSUE.

[tmad57]

Prophet Isaiah (as) was a muslim.

[yastunt]

hi tmad57,simply ASSUMING Isaiah was a muslim doesnt make it so - no archaeological discoveries have EVER been found to show Israel called God "allah" - the name used was "Yahweh" - dont try and save islam by such desperate assumptions.

[brandelaine5]

@yastunt

"Allah" and "Yahweh" and "Jehova" are simply different pronunciations of the same word.

Different cultures drop or add vowels and consonants or have a different stress on cetain syllables.

[faraz123]

@yastunt ... Yahweh was not the only word for God among the Jews just like Allah is not the only word for God among the Muslims. Elohim is also used throughout the Bible (look up Elohist and Jahwehist sources of hte Bible). Jesus who spoke Aramaic used the word Elohim... which derives from "Elah" which means God. That's a linguistic cognate to God in Arabic.

[Rzaa]

"I STRETCHED OUT THE HEAVENS" whats that got to do with continuas expansion of the universe?

[steeka68]

I am STRETCHING the universe is simply the right translation

[LoverofSolomon]

What verse? I want to find it.

[faraz123]

@LoverofSolomon 51:47

[tarikur]

Muslims brothers and sisters, please show this video and other Quranic sciece video especially "word repetitions" miracle to all the people you know including Muslims and non-Muslims, to your family, to your friends.

[AliG08]

u guys get too personal...freesppech and msp....just wach the movie and say if u likes it or not and then STFU

[FreeSpeechIsDead]

Why don't muslims read you ask? Hey, that's an easy one...

[msp1972]

I saw mohammeds silhouette on a piece of toast when It popped out of the toaster. It was a miricle!

[xkillah]

EID MUBARAK BROTHA's and SISTA's

[bloodspila2]

these people are just jealous cuz theyre not muslims. the truth is infront of them and they still wont belive, there are 100's of miricles in the quran.

[savemypeople]

allahu akbar

[jabberwolf]

Judging religion is one thing. Judging a religion that consistently lies is another. Again the argument that MUSI'UUNA means steadily expanding is a flat lie. All YUSUFALI, PICKTHAL, and SHAKIR all translate: "expanse " or "space". Its only tragically desperate people that try to stretch its meaning to "GROWING" or "steadily growing" expanse. Those that pretend to know Arabic, it's ok to laugh at yourselves and this video in silence. I know this is very embarassing for you.

[freakinlyurs]

Allah is the creator of the universe.He nv seizes to give love and life to us.Read the Quran.Understand it.Islam dun practise terrorism.Islam is a beautiful religion.We Muslims dun judge other religion.Ppl like you create racist remarks wic turns into smth bad,that Islam is being looked down upon.Allah is Great.You want miracles?Whenever disaster strikes,Mosques werent destroyed.They are God's home.A home for us Muslims to seek protection.You wan to prove that its a coincident?Go ahead.

[aformermarine]

" god is the creator and ruler of the entire universe" huh? lmfao Riiiiiiiiiiiight!!! Like anyone knows that. Science and religion don't mix, AT ALL, so don't try to. You have to interpret that "verse" metaphorically from the time in which it was written and put it in proper context. Religious numbnuts desperately try to relate bible verses and stories with current science to keep their business of selling false hope and deception alive. The extremely sad thing is most people actually buy it.

[prober0101]

MUSI'UUNA comes from the root AWSA'A (different form of WASI'A), which means to enlarge, widen, to cause expansion. MUSI'UUNA is the person who is doing the act AWSA'A. In an Arabic dictionary, MUSI'UUNA is translated to the maker of the vast extent or who causes the vast extent. It is not to be confused with Arabic MUSI'UN which means a wealthy or rich person, as in 2:236, although one can see the connotation of a rich person to "his ability to extend his wealth to others". Wallahu'alam.

[jabberwolf]

Come from the Verb evsea? Really because there is no root corralation between those 2 words in that sentence. And again the it is 51:48 that has the word expanding.. and if READ (which im sure you don't ever do) it talks about expanding Islam in the EARTH not UNIVERSE. Again why don't you muslims READ?!? EVER?!!

[jabberwolf]

FARAZ in ARABIC in 51:47 it does not say EXPANDING !!

In almost all translatoins it talks about a Vast universe or expanse( I can only assume you say Expanse in ENGLISH and went apeshitt and thought it meant expaning. The following 51:48 talks about is spreading (expanding) but about islam on EARTH, not the Universe.

Why is it most Muslims never bother to read?

[Rzaa]

The Arabic word "moosiaaoona" in the term "inna lamoosiaaoona," translated into English as "it is We Who are steadily expanding it", comes from the verb "evsea," meaning "to expand."

[errunus]

I guess the scientific predictions in the qur'an are the reason for the islamic world's vast technological superiority over the West...hehe.

[mikejamie]

this is arabic. take some classes on arabic and look back at what you're saying. you're gonna laugh at yourself.

[BloodySerpent]

Terroists destroy the world....while the rest of Islam remains quiet? Do you have ANY IDEA how much REAL Islamists, you know, the ones who actually follow it (not the terrorists) are trying to stop this! The only problem is that the American news does not show this because American news is racist, just like you. God, I guess racism will never stop, because of fucking retards such as this guy.

[dudefromlondon]

I hope you don't mean those who coopirate with americans!

But if islam takes over the United States whos going to build the mustangs and corvettes?

[errunus]

plus muslims will take away our bikini models and alcohol. I'm in college right now; let no muslim threaten my booze supply. :P

[tarikur]

Is the lie that Islamophobic racist and Islam-haters wants you commoners to believe. They want to create fear, by creating fear, they create hate. The reality, Muslims care more about like every other group of people like Westerns preserving and defending their way of life, so it can passed down to next generation. Muslims say Muslims are growing and want spead to America is because they want encouraging news like Bush always says we winning the war on terror.

[errunus]

If you want to talk about making Islam look sick and horrible, how about the fatwa on salman rushie in which no prominent muslim stood up an said this was insane, or public beheadings. There is lots of criticism to go around, but having the islamic world infuriated with riots by a dutch cartoon, from a westerner's eyes, you're going to appear delusional, bigoted, and dangerous. This is comming from a secularist who sticks up (in the U.S.) for the muslim world most of the time.

[errunus]

i apologize for this offending you, but i try to say what i think.

[tarikur]

Most Muslim leaders and Imams condem beheading, terrorist acts and fatwa against Salman Rusdie. You caught in anti-Islamic propagana. Since YouTube allow URLS, type this exact phase in google to see article

'US Muslim groups condemn beheading' from Deseret News (Salt Lake City)"

The Danish riots happened because it confirmed that West actually waging against Islam and also Mulims love the prophet.

[errunus]

I'll check it out.

[errunus]

It is true that in the arabic world, alcohol and free expression of sexuality are strongly chastised. Just to let you know, I don't support America's unfair propping-up of the Israeli state. i'm not ignorant of the fact that Israel, the U.S.A. and the U.K. are the biggest terrorist states in the world. I don't consider myself a commoner, and I don't beleive the bullshit from my current president.

[tarikur]

Thank you understanding. Thank you for not getting caught in propaganda like many commoners.

[andayamartin]

Duuhhhh! I think before you start analyzing just one verse its important to look at the preceding and succeeding verses before putting all sorts of wierd meanings to some verse without putting things in context if u want to know wat islam is about then just look at the people who follow it like hamas, al queda, abu sayyaf, and all those radical fanatics who destroy d peace and shatter d lives of the innocent, while d rest of d islamic world sit back n remain quiet.

[faraz123]

The word "heaven," as stated in the verse above, is used in various places in the Qur'an, referring to space and the wider universe. Here again, the word is used with this meaning, stating that the universe "expands." The Arabic word "moosiaaoona" in the term "inna lamoosiaaoona," translated into English as "it is We Who are steadily expanding it", comes from the verb "evsea," meaning "to expand." The prefix "la" emphasises the following name or title and adds a sense of "to a great extent."

[faraz123]

it's very hard to put Arabic meaning into English words.. it was the Muhammad Asad translation.

51:47 AND IT IS We who have built the universe [30] with [Our creative] power; and, verily, it is We who are steadily expanding it.

Waalssamaa banaynaha biaydin wainna lamoosiAAoona

[BenStevenson2]

According to SearchTruth.com - Pickthal's translation of 51:47 is:

"We have built the heaven with might, and We it is Who make the vast extent (thereof)."

This does not seem to mention current expansion of the universe.

this site contains some striking similarity of Holy Quran's verse with the modern inventions of Science. Very informative site:

[havetopraiseyou]

The term used in arabic is muwasioon which means 'we are expanding it' litterally.

[1sakemartini]

I don't know Arabic. But I can't find that specific Sura nor word being translated or interpreted as 'exanding' until after Hubble's discovery. I would have to say that is a new, intentional, interpretation.

....and that is deceiving.

[faraz123]

@1sakemartini This is the Arabic language. muwase'e literally means the "expander"... Muwaseeon the one used in the verse... means "we the expanders"... can't change the Arabic language.

[dlinkdj]

yup i just read the arabic word in the Holy Quran, Muwasi3oon which literally means We expand

[faraz123]

i believe it is pickthal

[BenStevenson2]

Which English translation of the Qur'an is the quote from?

[latinamuslim]

another miracle of the Quran and another reason why Islam intimidates the west.
