OBJECTION EXPLAINED – Kya Quran ke mutabiq Zameen Flat Hai?
Ek objection yeh uthaya gaya ke Quran me Earth ko flat bataya gaya hai. Objector ne Surah Rahman ki ek ayat ka reference diya jisme “diameter” ka lafz aya, aur usse yeh nateeja nikala ke Quran ke mutabiq zameen gol nahi, balki flat hai. Yeh objection mostly un logon se aata hai jo samajhte hain ke Islam science se contradict karta hai, especially cosmology me.
SHORT ANSWER – Kya Quran Flat Earth ko support karta hai ka short me jawab
Nahi, Quran kahin bhi flat Earth ka aqeeda nahi deta. Mufti Yasir ne Surah Zumar ki ayat 5 ka reference diya jisme “kawwara” ka lafz use hua hai – jo Arabic me turban lapetne ke liye use hota hai. Ye lafz spherical motion ko suggest karta hai, aur clearly indicate karta hai ke Earth gol hai, flat nahi.
DETAILED ANSWER – Quran aur spherical Earth ka logical explanation
Mufti Yasir ne bataya:
- Surah Zumar (39:5) me aya hai ke “Allah ne raat ko din par lapeta aur din ko raat par lapeta.”
Yahaan Arabic lafz “kawwara” use hua hai – jo linguistically turban lapetne ke liye aata hai, jo head ke spherical shape pe hota hai. Iska implication hai ke Earth gol hai, jisme din aur raat gradual rotation se aate hain. - Mufti Yasir ne yeh bhi clarify kiya ke ek ayat jisme “diameter” ka concept aata hai, wo space ke reference me hai – na ke sirf Earth ke. Aur diameter to circle me bhi hota hai, sphere me bhi.
- Quran ka purpose scientific diagram dena nahi hai, lekin jab bhi wo natural world ka zikar karta hai, uski language scientific realities se match karti hai.
OBJECTION FLAWS – Flat Earth wale objection ke logic me kya kya galtiyan hain?
1. Context Mismatch:
Objector ne “diameter” ka lafz Quran me dekha, lekin uska context galat samjha. Wo lafz space aur heavenly bodies ke liye tha, na ke Earth ke shape ke liye.
2. Misunderstanding Arabic Terms:
Lafz “kawwara” ko ignore kiya gaya, jabke yeh Earth ke spherical shape ko describe karta hai – literal flatness ka koi lafz use nahi hua.
3. Selective Quoting:
Objector sirf ek ayat ko uthata hai aur baaki Quranic references ko ignore karta hai jo Earth ke gol hone ki taraf ishara karte hain.
4. Scientific Inconsistency:
Science khud kehti hai ke sab heavenly bodies naturally spherical hoti hain – aur Quran bhi yahi indicate karta hai.
5. No Historical Flat Earth Doctrine in Islam:
Islamic classical scholars (like Al-Biruni) ne bhi Earth ko gol describe kiya hai. Quran kabhi flat Earth ko promote nahi karta.
FINAL THOUGHTS – Islam aur Science ka takraav nahi, tafreeq ka masla hai
Jo log Quran ko flat Earth theory se jodte hain, wo ya to Quran ka matn samajhne me ghalti karte hain ya deliberately misunderstanding create karte hain. Islam koi medieval flat Earth myth promote nahi karta. Quran ka lafzi aur logical structure dono Earth ke gol hone ko confirm karta hai – lekin apni style me, directly nahi, balke imagery aur language ke zariye.
