mistakes in Quran (2)?

Question

Creation of the Heaven and Earth
Which one was created first? As you will see in the verses below, Allah at one time says that Earth was created first and another time he says that the Heaven was created first.

Quran 2: 29 It is He who hath created for you all things that are on Earth; THEN He turned to the Heaven and made them into seven firmaments (Skies)….

Quran 79: 27 - 30 Are you the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built? He raised the height thereof and ordered it; and He has made dark the night thereof, and He brought forth the morning thereof. And after that, He spread (flattened) the earth

Now, does it match modern science? Do you believe that, Earth was created first, after that, God created Heaven? Modern science tells us that? Or How come SEVEN firmaments (layers)? Modern science tells us that, actually there is no such thing Sky is no “roof” over us. It is only a space with no known boundary at all. These verses simply reinforce the ancient idea of ROOF over us which is called SKY, is it not so? How funny!

Sun-set and Sun-rise
Koran teaches us that the Sun sets in a muddy spring:

Quran 18: 86 Till, when he (the traveller Zul-qarnain) reached the setting-place of the Sun, he found it going down into a muddy spring…

Quran 18: 90 Till, when he reached the rising-place of the Sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had appointed no shelter from it.

Serious scientific errors here! Firstly, it is scientifically accepted fact that, the Sun never go down in a muddy spring. Secondly, this seems to presuppose a FLAT Earth, otherwise how can there be an extreme point in the West or in the East? A sunrise there would be basically just the same as at any other place on this earth, at land or sea. It would still look as if it is setting “far away”. It does say, that he reached THE PLACE where the Sun sets and in his second Journey the place where it rises.

Answer 1

You are on a roll! Too bad that anyone who actually believes in any of the sad documents (bible, quran for those not paying attention) will have all types of excuses and perform elaborate mental gymnastics to keep their fantasy world safe.

Answer 2

The first one:

There are three widely accepted translations of the Qur'an.

One of them does translate the word "thumma" as "THEN", but the other two have translated it as "and" and "moreover". So it doesn't really conflict with the other one.

As for the sky not being a roof...have any idea what would happed if we had no sky? Meteors would crash on earth without burning. The Van Allen belt blocks out harmful radiation and solar wind from the sun. Without it there would be no life. It is a protective roof, kind of. No clouds, no protection from the sun, no rain. All this does come under "sky".

The second one:

The sun setting in a muddy spring is just a metaphor; place of the setting sun, another metaphor, a place in the west.

How does this mean the earth is flat? Even to this day, people call Asia as the East and Americas as the West. Japan, far east, land of the rising sun...

Answer 3

I don't know the details, just hypothesis, God knows.

He raised the heavens/skies first, then flattered the earth, then He TURNED to heaven then created 7 firmaments.

For scientifics, it is truly clear that Quran is integrated with science. visit http://www.harunyahya.com/, I watched the videos, it explains about the seven layers.

About the roof, if earth do not have any sky, then meteors blast on your home. Haha, HOW FUNNY? Modern Scientist becoming more crazy.

About the second verse comparison we should underline the term: "...HE FOUND IT...".

Answer 4

Dozens!

Answer 5

And what have you accomplished? And also you're failing to see fairly obvious symbology in many of your references. What ever your path there will always be fault, you must either disregard the fault or choose to accept it. You do not need to point that out to every Muslim or anybody of any faith. If it's not your path, let it be.

Answer 6

If you have a false understanding of something, it does not mean that it is wrong. It means that your understanding is wrong. Another probability is that you know the right but you does not like believing in it.

Answer 7

Bravooo.

You've learned to copy and paste.

I don't even need to read all of this because you asked a question like this before and all that you mention is due to lack of knoweldge.

many before you have tried to find mistakes and yet they all failed.

Answer 8

a million. Time of Allah is incomparable to earthly time The Qur’an says in 2 verses, (22:40 seven and 32:5), that the diploma of one day contained in the sight of Allah is comparable to a million,000 years of our reckoning. In yet another verse (70:4) it says that the diploma of one day contained in the sight of Allah is comparable to 50,000 years of our reckoning. those verses often propose that the time of Allah (swt) is incomparable to the earthly time. The examples given are of one thousand years and fifty thousand years of the earthly time. In different words hundreds of years or an extraordinarily, very long term of the earth an afternoon contained in the sight of Allah is comparable to: 2. Yaum additionally potential era The Arabic be conscious utilized in all those 3 verses is yaum, which, to boot meaning an afternoon additionally potential a protracted era, or an epoch. in case you translate the be conscious yaum properly as ‘era’ there will be no confusion. a) The verse from Surah Hajj reads as: "yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! yet Allah won't fail in His promise. Verily an afternoon contained in the sight of thy Lord is almost 1000 years of your reckoning". [Al-Qur’an 22:40 seven] while the unbelievers asked to hasten the punishment the Qur’an says Allah won't fail in His promise. Verily a era contained in the sight of Allah is almost 1000 years of your reckoning. b) The verse from Surah Al-Sajdah says: "He regulations (all) affairs from the heavens to the earth: contained in the top will (all affairs) pass up? To Him, on an afternoon, the gap whereof would be (as) 1000 years of your reckoning". [Al-Qur’an 32:5] This verse shows that a era required for each and all of the affairs to pass as much as Allah (swt), is 1000 years of our reckoning. c) A verse from Surah Al-Maarij says: "The angels and the spirit ascend unto Him in an afternoon the diploma whereof is (as) fifty thousand years". [Al-Qur’an 70:4] This verse potential that the era required for angels and the spirits to ascend unto Allah (swt) is fifty thousand years. d) The era for 2 diverse acts desire no longer be the comparable. case in point the era required for me to shuttle to holiday spot ‘A’ say Vashi is one hour and the era required for me to shuttle to holiday spot ‘B’ i.e. Kashmir is 50 hours. this would not point out that i'm making 2 contradictory statements. subsequently the verses of the Qur’an no longer purely do no longer contradict one yet another, they are additionally in suitable team spirit with conventional cutting-area scientific data. .
