Sphericity of the Earth
Glory to Allah (he who said): (He draweth the night as a veil O'er the
day, each seeking the other in rapid succession) Al-A'raf 54 (the
phrase "seeking the other in rapid succession" was expressed in
Arabic as" Yatlbho Hathithan") which means following it rapidly,
without stopping.
Lets image that.....the day is an organism of light emitted from the
sun filling all the space and the surroundings in all directions and
the night is another organism that is having no light in it except the
glow of the stars following the day rapidly and the day is following
it also . this one runs and the other one seeking it without
stopping.
But to where? And how? Are they running in a straight way its
terminal is the infinity? If it was like this so there will be only
one day pass over the earth followed by only one night and then its
over .
But we see them following each other, as the day comes out every day
from the same direction it came out from the previous day, and it's
sun moves to comes down in the same direction it came down at
yesterday and also the darkness from the east and it depresses in the
west, then this scene is repeated and repeated as much as God wants
so.
Lets image the movement in the words of Allah (seeking the other in
rapid succession) from this reality we find that the way is rounded no
doubt about it. To understand this easily we have to comprehend the
descriptional phraseology in the Holy Quran very well then, it will
appear to us clearly through out the verse a picture of a spherical
way around the earth, running on it the day and the night this draweth
that and that draweth this.erlap was expressed in Arabic as makes it
spherical or round) so by this way the verse would be very clear.
Overlapping the night on the day so it hide it and makes the night as
a sphere, and overlap the day on the night so it hide it and makes the
day as a sphere. And so by making both of them rounded around each
other we can see a spherical body rolling between both of them
gathering them and making them rounded around each other. This body is
the earth.
Lets image that we are in the day reign and after a few hours the
night will cover this reign but it won't cover it in a normal way, no
it will get rounded and rounded which means that it bends in a
spherical way, and logically the reign must be spherical so that words
could be understood. Humanity was ignoramus and knew nothing about
that except for some common superstitions. So how did Mohammed peace
and priers of Alla be upon him know it and assure it?! Praise and
glory to Allah who said: (And it is he who spread out the earth ,and
set thereon mountains standing firm"Ar-Ra'd 3 "And the earth we have
spread out (like a carpet);set thereon mountains firm and immovable)
Al-Hijr19.
How can the earth be spread out? And what does it mean? "This means
that we flattened walking on it so it will be extended in front of us,
you won't end up at a barrier that hide what is behind it, or an
eternal gap that we stand in front of it handicapped, so lets walk in
any direction we want, and let the nights, months, years and all of
the age pass and as we keep walking as it will keep extending, and so
there isn't any geometrical shape fulfill this status except the
spherical shape, so as you keep walking on it, it keeps extending in
front of you, and any other shape can't fulfill the meaning of this
verse".
Many Muslim scholars and explainers pointed to the Sphericity
of the earth from what they had understood from Allah's book (The Holy
Quran) such as: Muslim scholars (Imam) pointed to this reality a long
time ago, as Imam"Ibn Alkim Al Gozia" pointed in his book "Al Tibian
fy aksam alquran" or the clarification of the chapters of the Holy
Quran pointed to the Sphericity of the earth, also Imam "Fakr Al Razi"
pointed to the Sphericity of the earth in his clarifying book "Mafatih
Alkaib" or the keys of the unknown saying: " the spread out of the
earth is extending it to where we can't approach its end, and God made
the earth's mass great so the eyesight can't reach its end, and if the
sphere was very big each part of it is seen as an extended straight
surface".
And to that also pointed Sheik Al-Islam "Ibn Timia" in his book "the
right answer to whom changed the religion of Jesus" he said: "know
that they have agreed on that the earth is spherically shaped and
there is nothing under its surface except its middle and the end of
beneath is the center which is called the area of heaviness".
And the Sphericity of the earth while it is swimming in the
space didn't appear to the people except when the Russians released
the first satellite " Spotenik" to it's orbit around the earth in
October 1957, and so the scientists could have a clear photos of the
planet earth through the photographing tools that were fixed on the
satellite, in 1966 the satellite "Lonic 9"landed on the surface of the
moon accompanied by its advanced instruments, and so it sent back to
the receiving stations on the earth photos of the planet earth, so how
did Mohammed peace and priers of Allah be upon him know that? It is
the inspiration from Allah, which proves that the one who sent down
the Holy Quran is the creator of the universes, and it is He who knows
every thing.
