Why will God create you and hide himself from you, then burn you if you refuse to believe any religion because there are so many and You even have not seen Allah or Onyankopon or God or Rah for yourself?!

No He does not burn you. It was a perfect relationship between the first man ADAM. The Bible says God came to Adam everyday,spoke with him and so on and so forth. But that perfect relationship stopped when Adam disobeyed God and ate from the fruit of life and death. Adam was warned of the consequences of eating from that fruit. God has tried several times to restore that relationship back to what it was through His prophets and messengers and Mohammed is not one of them. If you read from Genesis,The Bible says in the beginning God created Heaven and Earth and all that is in it by His word. God said let there be light and there was light. God created everything by speaking. In John the Bible says John1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
John1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
John1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
John1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.John1:6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
John1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
John1:8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
John1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
John1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
John1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
John1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
John1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. If you look at the last word the Bible says the word became flesh and dwell amongst us but we could not comprehend it not. The Bible says whosoever shall be lieve HIM JESUS SHALL BE SAVED and the earlier relationship that God had with mankind shall be restored. In revelation the talks about established of the new relationship.Rev21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
Rev21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Amen. Care for the truth because it shall set you free. Payola just try to revisit this books i have quoted from the Bible and you will get more understanding . God Bless

Point 2
If you want to quote the Quran then Quote the full verse, this is how you religious bigots manipulate the naiive masses. By quoting half verses and interpreting them to suite your interest at each point in time. That verse in the surah of iron states:
''We have already sent Our messengers with clear evidences and sent down with them the Scripture and the balance that the people may maintain [their affairs] in justice. And We sent down iron, wherein is great military might and benefits for the people, and so that Allah may make evident those who support Him and His messengers unseen. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might.''
Reading carefully it indicates that Iron has millitary might and Allah has sent it to you moslems as a means of enforce.
...take Note... "so that Allah may make evident those who support Him'' ...
But looking at the current situation that exist, America, Isreal and the West is more powerful in millitary might which your quaran describes is inherent in iron. In short the Quran was written with a millitaristic agenda infused with religion for the purposes of the time. true or false?

payola are you not able to read and understand ? the verse Allah says And We sent down iron, wherein is great military might and benefits for the people. so he did not do it for muslims alone and it doesn't matter who uses it most, whether America or Israel they are all people of the world. as for "and so that Allah may make evident those who support Him and His messengers unseen. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might.'' Allah has done all these to know those who will ponder on his creations and believe in him and his prophets even though they never saw Him.
"Verily! in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding. Those who remember Allah (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): 'Our Rubb! You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners)". (3:190,191)
Allah created iron for the benefit of the people not Muslims.

Allah does not exist, get over it. There are no Gods anywhere. iron is created by natural process. Read about supernova and you will understand how elements are created in stars. No gods necessary. It is a purely natural process. after the supernova explosion the remnants are dispersed into space and recycled to form new objects. Astronomers and cosmologists observe this everyday. You only need a god when you are ignorant and have no explanation for something that baffles your mind. I am baffled by spacecraft so I guess NASA is a god. Right?

Please next time quote the so called scientific verses in full so that we can figure out the context and judge for ourselves.
At the end of the day if it is proven that the quran is indeed scientific, the questions that remain are;
1.Does its scientific accuracies mean the quran is divinely inspired?
2.Do we have any proof that nothing about the genesis of the universe and its science were revealed to the angels and satan and his demons(before their separation from God's kingdom)for which reason satan could not have been the source of the quran?
3.How do we explain away the scientific inaccuracies in the quran? eg. the sun setting in a muddy pool and the sun prostrating before Allah to seek permission before starting another journey the following day.
4. How do we explain away the historical fallacies in the quran eg. Allah's claim that Alexanda the great was a prophet, Jews worshiping the prophet Ekra as their God, the claim that Christians say Mary is God and the claim that Christians say Allah is one of a third, etc.
5. And finally, Mohammed never trusted the angel that gave him the revelations. He suspected he was dealing with a demon disguising as the angel Gabriel. There is no single witness to his revelations and the issue of Mohammed's suspicion of the angel was never settled even to date. Are we therefore to reject Jesus whose revelations had witnesses and who knew what he was about for Mohammed who said he was not sure of his fate regarding his salvation on the judgement day?

Because their cosmogony hasn't evolved beyond that of primitive man, and they are therefore unable to perceive the cosmos in a Rational and Objective form and shape doesn't make them right in their beliefs.
All these are just mere circular rantings, similar to arguing that unicorns and fire spitting dragons exist cos humans have imagined them to exist!
I have read one work in which claims of the Qur'an conforming to science were made. I wasn't the least convinced by Maurice Bucaille's rationalisations. In any case, claims which conform to scientific studies were simply built on the knowledge of Egyptians and others which the Graeco-Roman writers had preserved, which knowledge continued to flourish in the part of their world which did not fall to the Barbarians, Visigoths, Vandals, etc.

NO. the Quran should be specific, pointed and accurate. For example. The sun is a star burning hydrogen gas to produce heat and light. This is specific, accurate and straight to the point. It is not now subject to various interpretations from different preachers. A gas is a gas, hydrogen is hydrogen, period. Now show me such examples in the Quran or any religious book for that matter. There are none. Poetic language and descriptions are vague and can be explained anyhow. That is why it is easy to conclude that religion is man made, based on the state of knowledge at the time those scriptures were written. if the Quran or Bible were written today they would mention computers, TV, car, fridge, telephone and so on. They would also say things like DNA was created on the fifth day, and on the last day god rested so he could play video games with his wife and then go to the mall to purchase fried rice and so on.

ATOM AND SUBATOMIC PARTICLES
ASTRONOMY TAGGED: ATOM, CREATION OF ATOM, ELECTRON, NEUTRON, PROTON, QUARK, SUBATOMIC PARTICLES
atom
This post is also available in: German, Albanian, Arabic, Bosnian, Turkish
The atom is the smallest particle of matter. God drew attention to the existence of the atom, laying emphasis on the importance of its knowledge. A naked eye looking at a table, a carpet, a wall or a stone cannot fully grasp the importance of the atom and the knowledge it contains. While the Quran stresses the importance of the atom, it emphasizes also the subatomic particles, “Or something smaller or greater than.”
Not even an atom’s weight in the heavens and the earth, or something smaller or greater than it is hidden from Him, but all are in a clear record. (34:3)
In the expression “greater than” is comprised the knowledge of the greater compositions like molecules, the entirety of which is within God’s ken.
Men contemporary with the Prophet could not possibly have known that in the atom and subatomic particles and their compounds different types of knowledge were comprised. The Quran asserts the omniscience of God. Drawing attention to the existence of the atom and the subatomic particles is relevant to the present day information that physics has discovered.
The knowledge obtained today by means of cosmological physics studying the science of the origin and structure of the universe are interrelated with the data of atomic physics. Another miraculous sign of the Quran is its referring to the weight (miskale in Arabic) of the atom wherever the word “zerre” (atom) is mentioned.
FROM VAST TO SMALLEST MAGNITUDES
Imagine you are eating a pizza with great relish. What are its ingredients? Sausage, cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes and flour. What are the constituents of these sausages, cheeses, mushrooms and tomatoes and what are the constituents of the constituents? This series of questions leads us to molecules. The molecules themselves are made up of atoms such as oxygen, hydrogen and carbon. Then come protons and electrons, together forming eventually the nucleus of the atom…
The entire universe is made of matter or energy. From the trunk of a tree to its leaves, from the hands of a human being to his eyes, from golden ornaments to cotton dresses, everything is matter. The atom is the individual structure that constitutes the basic unit of any chemical element.
The proton is an elementary particle that is the positively charged constituent of ordinary matter, and, like the neutron, is the building stone of atomic nuclei. The electron is an elementary particle that is the negatively charged constituent of ordinary matter. These are the recent discoveries of science that led us to the discovery of the television, computer, Internet, etc. Take, for instance, a grain of sand in the palm, which is assumed to be the simplest matter, and think of the quadrillion of atoms it contains; quadrillions of atoms you could not finish counting throughout the span of your lifetime. Imagine that each of these atoms has its electrons moving around the nuclei, like the planets making their rounds around the sun. A quadrillion solar systems contained within a grain of sand or piece of rock in your palm. An intelligent mind will readily conceive that there is nothing simple in the universe. Be it a pizza or a rock, suppose that you fancy recomposing them. To embark on such a huge project, you must go back to the very beginning, to the primeval explosion, and repeat the process. In this odyssey, you will run into atoms, cornerstones of the universe, entailing the existence of protons, electrons and neutrons; then you will be faced by the gaseous substance made of hydrogen and helium; these will be followed by stars and atoms produced in these stars which will one day be transformed into the mushrooms, cheese and tomatoes of our pizza. In order to really make a pizza, we need to create the entire universe with all the stages it had.
The more you delve into the study of the atom the greater becomes your wonder. Suppose a penny on the table is the nucleus of an atom. The orbit that the electron would trace around it would be at a distance of 2-3 km. What is in between? The distance between the two, i.e., the nucleus and the electrons, is a vacuum. In other words, a piece of rock held in our hand contains in it quadrillions of solar systems, but 99.99% of it is a vacuum. Interesting, isn’t it?
While we observed the fact that the universe was replete with orbits as described in the verse (51-The Dispersing, 7), we witnessed the infinitude of God’s power and magnitude. This divine power is demonstrated through more than one hundred million galaxies, more than a hundred million stars contained in each, countless planets and satellites and their quadrillions of devised orbits. A grain of sand, then, contains quadrillions of miniature replicas of the solar system where electrons dance around the nuclei of quadrillions of atoms. What should one deduce from this? To begin with, the incommensurable magnitude of our Creator’s power is also observed in the depth of matter. Endless vastness has been created from these particles. The motion of the atom is the same movement around the center of limitless magnitudes. The system in any given galaxy and the one forming a particle of dust is the same system. The Author of that speck of dust is also the Author of the universe. All these phenomena point to the immensity of His power and to the order reigning in the universe, as well as to the fact that nothing is casual in His creation. The creation of the smallest and of the biggest is equal for Him. The creation of a point containing trillions of atoms and of immense space is equal for Him and difficulty is a notion not applicable for Him. There is no limit to His wisdom and power.
And if all the trees on earth were made into pens, and the ocean supplied the ink, augmented by seven more oceans, the words of God would not run out. God is indeed Almighty and Wise. (31: 27)
INFINITESIMAL CONTENTS OF ATOMS
The nucleus of the atom contains protons charged with positive electricity. These positive charges repel each other. The miracle of creation occurs when protons adhere to each other forming a single point. The power that confines the protons repelling each other and the neutrons within a single point is immense; it is called strong nuclear force. The elementary particles containing this force are referred to with the French epithet “gluons” meaning “sticky” (The immense destructive energy of the atomic bomb was obtained by the use of this force). God, who devised everything in the universe with mathematical precision, has also conceived this immense force with mathematical exactitude. This force adheres the mutually repelling protons to each other; had the power been weaker or stronger, the protons could disintegrate or it could cause the intrusion of protons and neutrons into each other.
The atomic bomb demonstrated tragically the immense power of the atom. It also showed that one of the factors that contributed to our worldly existence is its intrinsic balance. Thanks to the welladjusted order reigning in this field, matter does not disintegrate all of a sudden, giving rise to noxious effects of radiation. Another important factor that contributes to the stability of the atom is the weak force inherent in it. This force is particularly important in establishing the balance of the nuclei that comprise an excessive number of neutrons and protons.
Electromagnetic force is another factor contributing to the existence of atom. It is this force that brings about the attraction of oppositely charged particles and the repulsion of particles having like electric charges. This has made possible the coming together of the protons and electrons. However, this coming together has its limits. Electrons do not stick to the protons while they move at a breathtaking speed around the nucleus in their orbits. The repulsion of negatively charged electrons turning in succession, and the attraction of the electrons by the protons changes nothing. In this way, the electron does not stick to the proton that attracts it, nor is it moved away. The Creator of this system, of these electrons, deprived of consciousness, is undoubtedly the Creator of matter, atoms, electrons, etc. Let us make an experiment as conscious human beings. Imagine tying a rope around the waists of three or four people while others stand in the middle of the circle. Let those in the middle try to pull the tied people towards themselves while the outside people are circumnavigating the center, and let the people making the circle push each other and those in the center as well, resembling the movement within the nucleus of an atom. We certainly do not expect them to make thousands of rotations per second like an electron. Can reasonable human beings continue to imitate the motion of an atom for the length of one minute? And imagine for an instant that we venture to imitate the model of an atom with 3 or 4 orbits and that there are three or four rotations around the symbolic nucleus. In addition to this, suppose that sumo wrestlers representing the gluons with adhesive properties within the nucleus try to keep those pulling the rope while pushing each other at their places. What an awkward experience this would be! How have the protons and electrons been performing this feast over and over again endlessly for eons and eons with the quadrillions of atoms contained in a small rock?
These atoms existing in the universe and in our bodies were produced long ago in supernovas. The calcium in our teeth, the carbon that our pizza contains, and the iron atoms in our body are products of stars of high temperatures. These raw materials of the universe are prepared in the laboratory of these stars before being transformed into pizzas, water, blood, flesh, teeth and eyes.
This is not a story of an adventure taking place far away from us. Our hands, hair, eyes, our very food and the chair we sit on, everything is performing this process indiscriminately. Our Creator is perpetuating this process incessantly with His omnipotence and omniscience. All these movements of the atom and the energy inherent in it are what perpetuate our existence.
To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. No son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His dominion. It is He who created all things, and ordered them in exact measure. (25:2)
WHAT ELSE?
It is estimated that there are some 1080 particles in the universe. Add 80 zeros after 1 to have an idea of this magnitude. These particles function thanks to complex, ingeniously devised and balanced forces. So do the comets, supernovas and planets, a consequence of the harmonious interaction of these particles. What else must one bring forth to give an idea of the power and design lying behind all these? In this chapter, I tried to outline the structure of an atom and emphasize that it was extremely complex, perfect and ingeniously devised. Were we to push our exploration further, our wonder would be much greater. The emergence of elementary particles in the wake of the Big Bang is the result of an intelligent design. The heat at every instant during the explosion, the number of atomic particles, the forces involved in every stage and their intensities have been carefully planned. Any change in these values would be the end of existence, of galaxies and atoms, and would end up in chaos. The consequence of this primeval explosion was not chaos as might be expected, but a perfect harmony, the work of the Creator, governed by physical laws, a perfect order reigning among galaxies and atoms.
Tiny units of split seconds had their function to perform in the creation of the universe. Had the particles and anti-particles been created in equal number, all of them would be destroyed when the temperature fell below one billion degrees, leaving behind nothing but
radiation. The very fact of our existence is evidence to the contrary. The number of electrons had to be somewhat more than the number of positrons and the number of protons should exceed the number of anti-protons and the figure representing the neutrons should be superior to the number of anti-neutrons.
Every particle had to come into being at a predetermined velocity, temperature and time sequence. The primeval explosion was designed in such a way that it was followed by an evolution that reflected the Creator’s ingenious artistry. We have touched on the structure of the atom and the formation of atomic particles after the primeval explosion. The more one delves into the mystery of creation the more one’s wonder and amazement increase. The actual magnificence of the atom, the creation of particles of the atom by an intelligent design and the transformation of the particles into atoms are beyond the grasp of the intellect. If 1080 particles, with mutually attracting and repulsing electricity charges, had not been transformed into atoms in a finely balanced manner, neither the human ego, nor the book we read, nor the earth we inhabit would exist.
Whether we ascend to the heavens or descend to the microscopic depths, we encounter the same perfection and immensity of God’s work and design.
To God do belong the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that there is therein, and it is He who has power over all things.(5:120)

"It is Allah Who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven). His Command descends between them (heavens and earth), that you may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah surrounds (comprehends) all things in (His) Knowledge."
(Surat At-Talaq (The Divorce):12);
"Who has created the seven heavens one above another; you can see no fault in the creation of the Most Gracious. Then look again: "Can you see any rifts?"
(Surat Al-Mulk (Dominion):3);
"So I swear by the Lord of all the (three hundred and sixty (360)) points of sunrise and sunset in the east and the west that surely We are Able, To replace them by (others) better than them; and We are not to be outrun."
(Surat Al-Ma'arij (The Ways of Ascent):40-41);
Its motions "And He it is Who has created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in an orbit floating."
(Surat Al-Anbiya' (The Prophets):33);
"It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day. They all float, each in an orbit."
(Surat Ya-Sin: 40);
"And you will see the mountains and think them solid, but they shall pass away as the passing away of the clouds. The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily! He is Well-Acquainted with what you do."
(Surat An-Naml (The Ants): 88);
"And it is He Who spread out the earth, and placed therein firm mountains and rivers and of every kind of fruits He made Zawjain Ithnain (two in pairs-may mean two kinds or it may mean: of two varieties, e.g. black and white, sweet and sour, small and big).He brings the night as a cover over the day. Verily, in these things, there are Ayat (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, etc.) for people who reflect."
(Surat Ar-Ra'd (The Thunder): 3);
"And by the sun and its brightness; By the moon as it follows it (the sun); By the day as it shows up (the sun's) brightness; By the night as it conceals it (the sun);"
(Surat Ash-Shams (The Sun):1-4);
"By the night as it envelops. By the day as it appears in brightness;" (Surat Al-Lail (The Night): 1-2);
"He it is Who has appointed for you the night that you may rest therein, and the day to make things visible (to you). Verily, in this are Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) for a people who listen (i.e. those who think deeply)."
(Surat Yunus (Jonah):67);
"And have made the night as a covering (through its darkness), And have made the day for livelihood."
(Surat An-Naba' (The Great News): 10-11);
"If you were to ask them: "Who has created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon?" They will surely reply: "Allah." How then are they deviating (as polytheists and disbelievers)?"
(Surat Al-Ankabut (The Spider):61);
"See you not (O Muhammad (pbuh)) that Allah merges the night into the day (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the night are added in the hours of the day), and merges the day into the night (i.e. the decrease in the hours of day are added in the hours of night), and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is All-Aware of what you do."
(Surat Luqman: 29);
"He merges the night into the day (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the night is added to the hours of the day), and He merges the day into the night (i.e. the decrease in the hours of day is added to the hours of night). And He has subjected the sun and the moon: each runs its course for a term appointed. Such is Allah, your Lord; His is the kingdom. And those, whom you invoke or call upon instead of Him, own not even a Qitmir (the thin membrane over the date-stone)."
(Surat Fatir (The Originator of Creation, or The Angels):13);
"He merges night into day (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the night is added into the hours of the day), and merges day into night (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the day is added into the hours of the night), and He has full knowledge of whatsoever is in the breasts."
(Surat Al-Hadid (Iron): 6);
"And a sign for them is the night. We withdraw therefrom the day, and behold, they are in darkness."
(Surat Ya-Sin: 37);
"Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, and the ships which sail through the sea with that which is of use to mankind, and the water (rain) which Allah sends down from the sky and makes the earth alive therewith after its death, and the moving (living) creatures of all kinds that He has scattered therein, and in the veering of winds and clouds which are held between the sky and the earth, are indeed Ayat (proofs, evidences, signs, etc.) for people of understanding."
(Surat Al-Baqarah (The Cow):164);
"Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding."
(Surat Al-'Imran (The Family of Imran):190);
"Verily, in the alternation of the night and the day and in all that Allah has created in the heavens and the earth are Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) for those people who keep their duty to Allah, and fear Him much."
(Surat Yunus (Jonah): 6);
"And it is He Who gives life and causes death, and His is the alternation of night and day. Will you not then understand?"
(Surat Al-Mu'minun (The Believers):80);
"And in the alternation of night and day, and the provision (rain) that Allah sends down from the sky, and revives therewith the earth after its death, and in the turning about of the winds (i.e. sometimes towards the east or north, and sometimes towards the south or west sometimes bringing glad tidings of rain etc., and sometimes bringing the torment), are signs for a people who understand."
(Surat Al-Jathiyah (The Kneeling):5);
And its origin "Have not those who disbelieve known that the heavens and the earth were joined together as one united piece, then We parted them? And We have made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?"
(Surat Al-Anbiya' (The Prophets):30);
Where both the earth and the heavens are clearly described to have constituted (in their distant past) a single entity (the initial singularity~ primordial body) before they split apart (or the so-called Big Bang). Such group also includes verses that emphasize the vastly distant positions of stars
"So I swear by the setting of the stars. And verily that is indeed a great oath, if you but know. "
(Surat Al-Waqi'ah (The Event):75-76);
The expanding nature of the universe
"With power did We construct the heaven. Verily, We are Able to extend the vastness of space thereof." (Surat Adh-Dhariyat (The Winds that Scatter):47) ~ The smoky nature of the early sky (universe)"Then He rose over (Istawa) towards the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth: "Come both of you willingly or unwillingly." They both said: "We come willingly. Then He completed and finished from their creation (as) seven heavens in two Days and He made in each heaven its affair. And We adorned the nearest (lowest) heaven with lamps (stars) to be an adornment as well as to guard (from the devils by using them as missiles against the devils). Such is the Decree of Him the All-Mighty, the All-Knower."
(Surat Fussilat (They are explained in detail):11-12),
The existence of the interstellar matter
"Surely, in disbelief are they who say that Allah is the Messiah, son of Maryam (Mary). Say (O Muhammad (pbuh)): "Who then has the least power against Allah, if He were to destroy the Messiah, son of Maryam (Mary), his mother, and all those who are on the earth together?" And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them. He creates what He wills. And Allah is Able to do all things. And (both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are the children of Allah and His loved ones." Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins?" Nay, you are but human beings of those He has created, He forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them; and to Him is the return (of all)."
(Surat Al-Maidah (The Table spread with Food): 17-18);
"If you ask them (about this), they declare: "We were only talking idly and joking." Say: "Was it at Allah (ÚÒ æ Ìá), and His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His Messenger (pbuh) that you were mocking?"
(Surat At-Taubah (The Repentance): 65);
"And let not their speech grieve you (O Muhammad (pbuh)), for all power and honour belong to Allah. He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower."
(Surat Yunus (Jonah):65);
"Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six Days. Then He Istawa (rose over) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). The Most Beneficent (Allah)! Ask Him (O Prophet Muhammad SAW), (concerning His Qualities, His rising over His Throne, His creations, etc.), as He is Al-Khabeer (The All-Knower of everything i.e. Allah)."
(Surat Al-Furqan (The Criterion):59);
"{Musa (Moses)} said: "The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, if you seek to be convinced with certainty." (Surat Ash-Su'ara (The Poets):24);
"Do they not think deeply (in their ownselves) about themselves (how Allah created them from nothing, and similarly He will resurrect them)? Allah has created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, except with truth and for an appointed term. And indeed many of mankind deny the Meeting with their Lord."
(Surat Ar-Rum (The Romans) ;
"Allah it is He Who has created the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them in six Days. Then He rose over (Istawa) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). You (mankind) have none, besides Him, as a Wali (protector or helper) or an intercessor. Will you not then remember (or receive admonition)?"
(Surat As-Sajdah (The Prostration):4);
"So he looked down and saw him in the midst of the Fire."
(Surat As-Saffat (Those Ranged in Ranks): 55);
"Or is it that the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them is theirs? If so, let them ascend up with means (to the heavens)!"
(Surat Sad: 10);
"The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving."
(Surat Sad: 66);
"And Blessed is He to Whom belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, and with Whom is the knowledge of the Hour, and to Whom you (all) will be returned."
(Surat Az-Zukhrf (The Gold Adornments):85);
"We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except with truth, and for an appointed term. But those who disbelieve turn away from that whereof they are warned."
(Surat Al-Ahqaf (The Curved Sand-hills):3);
"And indeed We created the heavens and the earth and all between them in six Days and nothing of fatigue touched Us."
(Surat Qaf
And the concentric nature of both heavens and the earth (the universe) {"See you not how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another,"
(Surat Nuh (Noah):15);
"It is Allah Who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven). His Command descends between them (heavens and earth), that you may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah surrounds (comprehends) all things in (His) Knowledge."
(Surat At-Talaq (The Divorce): 12) ;}.

CHRISTIANS SAY EXACTLY WHAT YOU JUST SAID. THAT JESUS WOULD OPEN PEOPLES EYES.
HINDUS SAY THE SAME THINGS.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH RELIGION, IT IS THE DOGMATIC AND BULL-HEADED BELIEF THAT YOUR GOD IS THE ONLY GOD.
THIS HAS LED TO WARS AND MASS KILLINGS.
I THINK IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND STUPID.
WHY ARE THERE MILLIONS OF HINDUS AND BUDDHISTS IN THE WORLD.
WHY CANT ALLAH APPEAR DIRECTLY TO THEM AND TELL THEM ABOUT HIM?
MU SHOCK IS THAT YOU GUYS JUST DONT GET HOW CLOSE-MINDED AND DOGMATIC YOU ARE.
