The Fusing and Separating of the Heavens and the Earth

How do modern scientists explain the formation of the universe? Dr. Maurice Bucaille
explains it in his book, The Bible, the Qur▓an and Science, as follows:

⌠The basic process in the formation of the universe . . . lay in the condensing of material in
the primary nebula followed by its division into fragments that originally constituted galactic
masses. The latter in their turn split up into stars that provided the sub-product of the
process, i.e. the planets■ (p.149).

Does the Qur▓an say anything about this condensing and separation of the primary material
to result in the formation of our universe? Let▓s have a look. Our creator, Allah, says in his
final book:

⌠Do not the unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together, then we
clove them asunder . . .■ (Qur▓an 21:30).

This could also be translated as follows:

⌠Do not the unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were fused together, then we
separated them . . .■ (Qur▓an 21:30).

Dr. Bucaille sees this as ⌠the reference to a separation process of a primary single mass
whose elements were initially fused together■ (p.143).

Thus the Qur▓an gives an accurate account of the formation of the universe to call upon
humankind to recognise the power of their creator.

This raises an interesting question: How could a man living in the seventh century invent
these ideas which could not be confirmed until modern times? And how could he in so
doing avoid the mythical and fanciful ideas prevalent in human history?

Dr. Bucaille mentions some of these myths for contrast:

⌠When, as in Japan, the image of the egg plus an expression of chaos is attached to the
above with the idea of a seed inside an egg (as for all eggs), the imaginative addition
makes the concept lose all semblance of seriousness. In other countries, the idea of a plant
is associated with it; the plant grows and in so doing raises up the sky and separates the
heavens from the earth. Here again, the imaginative quality of the added detail lends the
myth its very distinctive character■ (p. 152).

In contrast to those myths, the Qur▓anic statements are ⌠free from any of the whimsical
details accompanying such beliefs; on the contrary, they are distinguished by the sober
quality of the words in which they are made, and their agreement with scientific data■ (p.
152).

It must be that the Qur▓an is not the product of any human or humans, but a revelation
from Allah. The Qur▓an says:

⌠The revelation of the scripture whereof there is no doubt is from the Lord of the Worlds■
(Qur▓an 32:2).
