The Qur’anic Chronology of Creation

Image
Exploring the Qur’anic Chronology of Creation reveals a profound perspective on how our universe transformed from a single point into the complex world we live in today. While modern science focuses on the "how," the Qur’an describes creation in meaningful stages that highlight the purpose behind the heavens and the earth. This layered journey moves from the initial act of creation to the detailed shaping of the stars, planets, and life, finally culminating in the appearance of human beings. In this article, we break down these stages to show how the Qur’an presents a beautifully coherent and purposeful vision of the universe. 1. Chronology of Creation Allah Almighty says in Surah Fussilat: 9.  قُلْ أَئِنَّكُمْ لَتَكْفُرُونَ بِالَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ وَتَجْعَلُونَ لَهُۥ أَندَادًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ 10.  وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا وَبَارَكَ فِيهَا وَقَدَّرَ فِيهَا أَقْوَاتَهَا فِي أَرْبَعَةِ أَيَّامٍ سَوَىٰ لِلسَّائِلِينَ 11.  ثُمَ...

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. WISDOM LIES IN HEARTS Author: Sajid Mahmood Ansari There are a number of Qur’anic narratives that help us to conclude directly without any complexity that wisdom lies in hearts. Though the Greek philosophers and later scientists have been believing, for centuries, that the organ of wisdom is brain. But latest research in neuro-cardiology supports the Qur’anic narratives. Qur’anic Narratives: The most eminent Qur’anic narrative that illustrates this fact rests in Surah Muhammad. The narrative goes: أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ الْقُرْآنَ أَمْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبٍ أَقْفَالُهَا Will they not, then, ponder over this Qur’an? – or are there locks upon their hearts?  [1] Subhan Allah ! What a motivational Ayah is this!   This  Ayah clearly mentions that the organ of thinking and understanding is the heart instead of brain. The same fact has been illustrated in several other  Ayaat . As follows: أَفَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَر...

How music changes our blood chemistry and behaviour?

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. How music changes our blood chemistry and behaviour? Author: Sajid Mahmood Ansari We know that human brain governs all the human actions. Now, it is established that human behavior is controlled by certain neurotransmitters that are called hormones. Certain hormones affect our mood including happiness, aggression and sadness. Our mood depends on the concentrations of these hormones in our blood stream. Dopamine and serotonin  are two important neurotransmitters that act reciprocally, in natural circumstances. The balance of these bio-chemicals in our body plays crucial role in maintaining our health. Inside the brain, dopamine plays important roles in  executive functions ,  motor control ,  motivation ,  arousal ,  reinforcement , and  reward , as well as lower-level functions including  lactation ,  sexual gratification , and  nausea . [1] Once dopamine was considered pleas...
