The miracles of the Qur'an: The returning sky

Q: What does the term 'returning sky' signify in the context of the Qur'an?

It refers to the scientific property of the earth's atmospheric layers to reflect or cycle materials, radiation, and radio waves. This function ensures the continuity of life and enables modern technological communication.

Q: How does the ozone layer demonstrate Allah's artistry in creation?

The ozone layer is specifically designed to reflect harmful ultraviolet radiation from space. By sending these dangerous rays back into space, it protects all living beings on earth from potential harm.

Q: What is the function of the troposphere regarding the water cycle?

The troposphere facilitates the condensation of water vapor rising from the surface. Through this process, it returns water back to the earth as rain, which is essential for sustaining life.

Q: How does the ionosphere facilitate global communication?

The ionosphere acts like a passive communication satellite by reflecting radio waves back toward the earth. This allows radio and television signals to travel over long distances to different parts of the world.

Q: Why is the mention of the sky's properties in the Qur'an considered a miracle?

The complex recycling functions of the atmosphere were only discovered through modern scientific research. The fact that these features were mentioned centuries ago serves as clear evidence that the Qur'an is the word of Allah.

Abstract

This video explores the scientific significance of the 11th verse of Surat At-Tariq, which describes the sky as having a returning function. Through an examination of the earth's atmospheric layers, such as the troposphere, the ozone layer, and the ionosphere, it demonstrates how each layer reflects or returns essential materials and energy. This reveals the flawless artistry in creation, serving as a sign of the Qur'an's divine origin.
