The motion of the sun and helical movement of planets explained in the Quran
1.Decoding the verses of the Holy Quran
What does Surah Ya-Sin say about the sun motion?
The Quran says in Surah Ya-Sin, verse 38, that Allah said:
وَٱلشَّمْسُ تَجْرِى لِمُسْتَقَرٍّۢ لَّهَا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْعَلِيمِ
“The sun travels for its fixed term. That is the design of the Almighty, All-Knowing”
The word ‘travel’ is very important here. If you see the helical motion of the planets, you will notice something that is extremely fabulous. See this picture:
You will see that the planets are in spiral motion and the sun is also revolving around something, because if the sun is in motion then there has to be some kind of center. That center can be a black hole because we know that there is a black hole at the center of our milky way galaxy called as Sagittarius A*. Now every star has to die, either by becoming a black hole or by another black hole. So, the sun traveling for its fixed term means that the sun is traveling towards its end, and it will die when the time comes. Everything has a specific life span, and when the life span ends, the thing has to die. When the time period of this sun comes, it will die, and of course it will be our end as well.
Does the Quran have scientific facts?
The Quran is dripping with scientific facts and knowledge. We will try our best to extract most of the knowledge and share it with you. Here are some astronomical examples:
Sun is not static, but moving in our galaxy Surah Ya-Sin, verse 38
Hazrat Sulaiman and Queen of Sheba using teleportation Surah An-Naml, verse 40
The black hole shape, color and place Surah Al-Kahf, verse 86
Wormholes used by prophets to travel in space Surah Al-Kahf, verses 89-90
Golden Spiral and our nature Surah al-Ghashiyah, verses 17-20
The beginning of universe Surah Al-Anbya, verse 30
Shooting Stars Surah Al-Jinn, verse 8
Portals and time travel Surah Kahf, verse 17
Mountains are like nails, and how is the sky standing? Surah Luqman, verse 10
