I couldnt reply to the other thread as it is very old, so had to make a new thread about this, 'cause this needs to be shared.

The fact that facts abt mountains are mentioned in Quran, makes it undoubtable truth. Here, let me give you the link to the book, which completely explains how the quran is 100% correct using references from scientific journals. It is written by Dr. Zaghloul El Naggar.

Quote:

About Zaghloul El Naggar:
Dr. Zahlool Al-Najjar is a great Muslim Geologist and Scientist who wrote many
books, publications (131 publications as shown on his resume in English), and
10s of journals and reports proving many of the Noble Quranic Geological and
Scientific Claims to be accurate through Modern Science and Technologies.

He is well known in the Scientists community of Geology in both the US and
Europe, because much of his work and research, especially during his early
days of scientific research, was done in these countries while he resided and
studied in them.

This is where u can download the book:

If you dont wanna read all that, it is explained in a simplified way in this video:

May Allah Guide the seeker of Truth
Peace

The guy who said the tsunami hit SE Asia "because the lands that were hit had tolerated the immoral behavior of tourists". Great source.

Some quick Google hits reveal just a bit of the nonsense behind this guy's claims:

Or look at Hector's post in this forum thread.

For his sick twisted views on tsunamis' motives and other scientific inaccuracies, a Discover magazine article.

I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. Are you saying that people should accept the Qu'ran as truth because it mentions geographical locations recognized today?

well why not post these facts here instead of linking to some bullshit youtube thing?

Hmmm, and Winnie the Pooh mentions forests and honey. Just bedamned, both exist... thus proving that A. A. Milne was as inspired by god as Muhammad was.

I presume this is about mountains having deep roots.

Have We not made the earth as a bed, and the mountains as pegs? (Quran, 78:6-7)

And He has set firm mountains in the earth so that it would not shake with you...(Quran, 16:15)

The problem is that the mountains roots don't look like pegs (not steep enough) and they don't stop the earth from shaking as earthquakes are most common in mountainous areas.

For a video really worth watching, here is Dr Naik arguing that whilst the mountains don't stop earthquakes, they do stop the earth from moving as we move!?

"It is 'tamide bikum'...'Shake with you', Indicating, if the mountains were not there, if you would have walked, if you would have moved, even the earth would have moved with you - If you would have swayed, even the earth would have swayed with you."

ludicrously vague. about as useful to geologists as fire, earth, air and water are to modern chemists. nice one, quran.

Star Trek TNG makes reference to the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics, which exists.

Therefore, Star Trek TNG is real, and we're all just illusions in the holodeck...or something.
