Is it true that the sun besides revolving it also rotates it is not stationary it rotates about its axis?

Question

Imagine it is already mentioned in Qur'an 1400 years back.

It is mentioned in The Glorious Qur'an in

Surah Ambiya, Ch. No. 21, Verse No. 33 'It is Allah who has created the night and the day, the sun and the moon, each one rotating about its own axis. It revolves and rotates, each one rotating about its own axis. '

You tell me who could have mentioned this scientific fact in the Qur'an 1400 YEARS back which was discovered recently?

Please believe the truth
TRUE WORD OF GOD. THE HOLY BOOK QURAN

Remember
There is no god but Allah, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) is the Messenger of Allah.

note : word Allah is used and preferred in Arabic language instead of word God.

Answer 1

There is no god but Allah, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the last messenger of Allah

That is true.
They wont even believe that 2+2=4, if you will say them they will answer you that it is not 4 it is 5 or 3.

Answer 2

None of the standard translations say this at all, so you're making it up to try to make it seem that the author(s) of the Qur'an knew more than humans could reasonably have known at the time. Take a look at some other standard translations:

021:033 KhanAnd He it is Who has created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in an orbit floating.
021:033 MaulanaAnd He it is Who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon. All float in orbits.
021:033 PickthalAnd He it is Who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. They float, each in an orbit.
021:033 RashadAnd He is the One who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; each floating in its own orbit.
021:033 SarwarIt is God who has created the night, the day, the Sun, and Moon and has made them swim in a certain orbit.
021:033 ShakirAnd He it is Who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all (orbs) travel along swiftly in their celestial spheres.
021:033 SheraliAnd HE it is Who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each gliding along smoothly in its orbit.
021:033 YusufaliIt is He Who created the Night and the Day, and the sun and the moon: all (the celestial bodies) swim along, each in its rounded course.

Where does a single one of those mention the sun or the moon rotating? They do not.

Moreover, the Qur'an says that they moon and sun are both gliding along in a circular orbit. Now, the sun certainly does not orbit the Earth, as we all know, so that is just plain wrong. It doesn't even work if you try to twist it to mean that the Earth is orbiting the sun in a circular orbit, since this is not true either - The orbit is elliptical.

So all in all this is just another tired attempt to validate a holy book by deliberately mistranslating it in the light of what *science* (not religion) has determined to be the truth. It is a standard tactic of attempted deception which is shared by many religions, since they know their doctrines and dogmas are mere mythology and they are desperately seeking to conceal this fact from the rest of the world.

One final thing to mention for the benefit of the skeptic: Always look at the older translations when examining claims to scientific knowledge, since these are less likely to have been deliberately mis-translated in an attempt to make them match modern scientific knowledge.

Answer 3

Abraham taught the Egyptians all they knew about Astronomy. There are many scientific facts that were lost only to be rediscovered in our time. There is evidence that some ancient cultures may even have had the technology to fly.

The Earth rotates on its axis. It revolves around the sun. The sun rotates on its axis the Sun revolves around the center of the galaxy. The galaxy rotates on its axis.

Answer 4

What about the moon? It doesn't rotate around its axis. In your own verses it says it revolves just like the sun.The following is copied directly from your question.

Surah Ambiya, Ch. No. 21, Verse No. 33 'It is Allah who has created the night and the day, the sun and the moon, each one rotating about its own axis. It revolves and rotates, each one rotating about its own axis. '

Answer 5

Yes the sun does rotate. It is quite interesting that the Qur'an mentions this fact. Thank you for that tidbit of info. The bible in the old testament.....uhm one of the later baook, mention the sphere of the earth. Again quite interesting considering we are talking about 2000 years or so BEFORE Columbus's time where a significant fraction of people thought the earth was flat.

Answer 6

Yes it Does.

The Sun rotates around an axis which is roughly perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic; the Sun's rotational axis is tilted by 7.25° from perpendicular to the ecliptic. It rotates in the counterclockwise direction (when viewed from the north), the same direction that the planets rotate (and orbit around the Sun).

The Sun's rotation period varies with latitude on the Sun since it is made of gas. Equatorial regions rotate faster than polar regions. The equatorial regions (latitude = 0 degrees) rotate in about 25.6 days. The regions at 60 degrees latitude rotate in about 30.9 days. Polar regions rotate in about 36 days.

Answer 7

Yes, it is true. It's rather remarkable that the Qur'an was correct in this (which I didn't know), along with its rejection of Ptolemy's model of the universe, 900 years before Copernicus.

Answer 8

I didn't know it was written in the Quran but it wouldn't surprise me. Middle Eastern scholars were far more advanced than elswhere. It was the 'christian ' church that suppressed all of that knowledge and called it heretical. Even Copernicus, who got it about right, was afraid to publish his findings

Answer 9

ah, no...sorry if i disagree with what Allah has written/said but the sun does not...however, since it has a gravitational pull to the nine planets, then these would revolve around the sun...

Answer 10

To my knowledge , i dont think that sun neither rotates nor revolves . I am sure sure that sun does not revolves.
