CREATION OF THE UNIVERSE: ‘THE BIG BANG’
The creation of the universe is explained by astrophysicists in a
widely accepted phenomenon, popularly known as the ‘Big Bang’. It is
supported by observational and experimental data gathered by astronomers
and astrophysicists for decades. According to the ‘Big Bang’, the whole
universe
was
initially one big mass (Primary Nebula). Then there was a ‘Big
Bang’ (Secondary Separation) which resulted in the formation of
Galaxies. These then divided to form stars, planets, the sun, the moon,
etc. The origin of the universe was unique and the probability of it
occurring by ‘chance’ is zero.
The Qur’aan contains the following verse, regarding the origin of the universe:
“Do not the Unbelievers see That the heavens and the earth Were
joined together (as one Unit of Creation), before We clove
them asunder?” [Al-Qur’aan 21:30]
