Expansion of Universe is mentioned in the Quran?

Question

One of the most subtle discoveries in science concerns the expansion of universe, its tendency constantly to extend its boundaries. This was something completely unknown to the human being until the last century. This mystery is, however, mentioned by the Quran in the following terms, which again bear witness to its remarkable profundity when discussing such matters:


“We created the heavens with Our strength and power, and constantly expand them”. (51:47)

Answer 1

The Koran, no I did not know that thanks.

the one one i mtalking about earth conraction
can you e mail me the arabic text for what you mean

Answer 3

Listen to me very carefully. I believed in scientific proof in the Quran too, some years back. But, it is all in the way you interpret these things. First of all there is still debate over whether the universe is expanding or contracting. Second of all this verse was probably a speculation of the people who wrote it.

Answer 4

Does expand mean make them grow bigger or add to them ...coincidence ..sorry. If they had some equations and Hubble constants, I might pay attention.

Answer 5

"Them" could easily be referring to "strength and power." Regardless, is there is question in here or are you just preaching, because while I respect your beliefs, this really isn't the place for them.

Answer 6

Jazakam Allah Kheiran.

Answer 7
