Video 25 - Scientific Miracles of the Quran 2 - Land Loss at the Extremities

The outer layer of the earth's atmosphere consists of a great many gases, particularly oxygen. However, energy explosions on the sun cause some of these gases to disperse into space. Researchers have obtained its first concrete evidence thanks to the NASA spacecraft. It was first observed that the Earth experiences a loss of matter from its outer layers on September 24 and 25th 1998. In other words, this occurred 14 centuries after this information was imparted in the quran.   Don't they see how We come to the land eroding it from its extremities? (Surat al-Anbiya':44) These verses may also be referring to the loss of land on Earth in another regard. At the present time, the polar ice caps are melting and the water level in the oceans is rising. As coastal areas come underwater, the land surface, or total amount of land is decreasing. The expression eroding it from its extremities in the verses may well be pointing to coastal areas being covered by water. God knows best.
