Message: How many signs in the heavens and earth they pass by, yet they turn (their faces) away from them." (The Quran 12:105)
"By the sky full of path." (The Quran, 51:7)
The language of the Holy Quran is a miracle by
itself. The Holy Quran describes various natural
phenomenon in a language that covers a wide range of
meaning and message. The earlier generations of the
Muslims did not have the level of knowledge to
appreciate these verses. We can now appreciate such
Quran phrases as: the sky full of path, and the signs
in the heavens as the facts of space which mankind
has recently discovered. Furthermore, the Quran
phrases: How many signs in the heaven they pass by
can best be explained in terms of the recent travels
of men into space.
The earlier generations of Muslims took these verses as the mysteries of the Holy Quran. Since they did not possess the level of knowledge needed to decipher these mysteries, they did not try to explain them. However, they did accept them as the words of Allah the Almighty. As the level of human knowledge advanced to new frontiers, later generations of Muslims explained these phenomena, and thus changed these mysteries to the facts of science and history. This is what makes the Holy Quran a living miracle for all generations of mankind. The Holy Quran has always excelled, and shall always excel the level of human knowledge. Every generation of mankind has discovered and shall keep on discovering new miracles in the Holy Quran.

This picture is taken by the NASA Hubble Space Telescope of the "Cat's Eye Nebula." It is an exploding star 3,000 light years away. They should have called it the "Oily Red Rose Nebula." As the Qur'an states in Sura-e-Rehman "When the sky is torn apart, so it was (like) a red rose, like ointment." Qur'an (55:37)
