Anam 4-6
4- AND WHENEVER AN AYAH OR SIGN OF YOUR LORD COMES TO THEM, THEY TURN AWAY FROM IT.
5- THEY REJECT THE TRUTH WHEN IT CAME TO THEM; THEN THERE WILL COME TO THEM THE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE JESTING ABOUT.
6- DID THEY NOT SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE DID WE DESTROY? WE GAVE THEM MORE POWER ON EARTH MORE THAN WE GAVE YOU, AND WE SENT PLENTY OF RAIN FROM THE HEAVEN UPON THEM, AND WE LET THERE BE RIVERS RUNNING UNDERNEATH THEM, BUT WE DESTROYED THEM BECAUSE OF THEIR SINS, AND WE CREATED OTHER PEOPLE AFTER THEM.
This is about the disbelievers every where and at all the times. Allah the Highest sends them Ayahs of his book and signs of His presence. The Ayahs of the book are to guide them and as signs of Allah’s presence, and other signs in the Heavens and Earth and miracles from Allah the Highest.
The times of the miracles and signs are not over, and never will be, Allah willing. We are discovering something new about our selves, the Earth and the Universe every day, which should be further proof for the Allah, the Creator.
Also we find more signs in the Quran. As we study the Quran, we find Allah the Highest telling us scientific facts which were not known 1400 years, not even 50 years ago. Allah who wrote the Quran obviously knew them, and as it was not known to a human being, then the Quran could not have been written by a human being. It is because Allah the Highest wrote the Quran and put these signs in as evidence of its authenticity hundreds and thousands of years later. I will mention a couple of these signs:
- “THE SKY, WE BUILT WITH OUR HANDS, AND WE ARE EXPANDING IT” (S:51 A:47)
It has been found recently that all the stars, galaxies and planets are moving away from each other, and the universe is expanding. These are facts upon which the theory of “Big Bang” is based. This theory says that the universe started from the explosion of a mass of matter some 15 Billion years ago, and all the stars and galaxies and planets are still moving by the momentum of this explosion.
- “AND THE LAND WHICH HAS CRACK” (S:86 A:12)
We recently knew that the earth consist of a crust which is solid and underneath this crust there is very hot melting core. The solid crust we live on is not one piece, but it is cracked into a number of pieces we call plates. The movement of these plates against each other leads to earth quacks. Towns and cities built on or near these cracks, like Los Anglos experience more earth quacks than most.
These geological facts were certainly not known 1400 years ago, and it’s presence in the Quran is a sign and evidence that the Quran was not written by a human being, but be the Creator of all beings.
There are many such examples in the Quran, but this is not the place to write about them all. I gave two examples just to explain the point.
Allah the Highest is telling the disbelievers that as they rejected the truth which came to them, then they know about it for sure, but at a time when it is too late for them to do themselves any good, that is on the Day of Resurrection. Allah the Highest described the state of the disbelievers on that day saying: “THE DAY WHEN THE UNJUST WILL BITE HIS HAND AND SAY: ‘I WISH I WENT ALONG WITH THE MESSENGER’”. (S:25 A:27)
Then another warning, that is to take head of the past nations who had power. They left behind them great buildings and evidence of their power and ability on Earth, but as they did not believe and continued in doing wrong, they were destroyed and their powers did not help them, to be replaced by others.
This warning is for us, the inhabitants of the planet Earth at present. Many nations enjoy great powers, abilities and technology. This makes some feel that there is no God , or that He has no power over them. It is interesting that there also great interest in history and archeology at present. We learn more about the past than we ever learned in the past. This new knowledge of the past we seem to take as interesting or as a subject to study, but we do not take lessons from, and we do not take heed from what happened to other nations in the past.
History is the best predictor of the future. We know this and apply it to our lives. One buys a particular make of car or television because they have good history of being good and durable, so when we buy one, we expect it to beerer good and last a long time. This means that we learn from the past and expect the same to happen in the future.
Allah the Highest is directing us to look at the past and see what happened to other nations and learn from them and take heed, but do we?
