Ep. 5: The Universe Is Still Expanding | Islam and Evidence
from Multilingual Islam Connect · host Multilingual Islam Connect
Not only did the universe begin — it is still expanding, at an accelerating rate. Confirmed by scientists in the late 20th century using telescopes and red-shift measurements. Yet the Quran, in chapter 51, verse 47, uses the Arabic word Musi'oon — meaning "We are its Expander" — in a form indicating present, ongoing, continuous action. Not past tense. Not future. Now. This episode examines the linguistic precision of a claim made 1,400 years before any instrument could measure cosmic expansion.
