11. Allah's Scientific Miracles In The Quran: Orbits And The Rotating Universe

You can also read and listen to this episode on our blog: https://islamic-audio-book.com/11-orbits-and-the-rotating-universe/ The universe functions within a finely-tuned order, just like the wheels in a factory. Celestial bodies follow specific paths, and the Solar System and even other galaxies exhibit considerable motion around other centres. The earth follows an orbit around the sun that deviates only 2.8 millimetres from a direct course. If the deviation were any larger, the earth would freeze. The Qur'an indicates that heavenly bodies have cyclical systems and that they rotate around their own axes. At the time the Qur'an was revealed, people had no telescopes or advanced observation technology.
