The Qur'an describes the sky as a dome, and the Earth as a couch for you. The Quran mentions the protective properties of the atmosphere and the special creation of the Earth. https://islamic-audio-book.com/22-the-sky-made-a-dome/

Centuries ago, Allah informed us in the Quran of the world's atmosphere functioning as a protective shield. https://islamic-audio-book.com/21-the-well-guarded-sky/

The Qur'an reveals that the sky comprises seven layers and that the Earth's atmosphere consists of different layers that lie on top of each other.

The seven layers of the atmosphere are as follows: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere. Each layer has a particular function, ranging from forming rain to preventing harmful rays, from reflecting radio waves to averting the harmful effects of meteors.

The Quran uses the plural form of the word "qutr" to refer to the Earth's many diameters, and this is important because it indicates the Earth's geoid shape.

The second noteworthy subject in the verse is that the Earth and the heavens are mentioned separately in reference to diameters. The definition of the "confines of the heavens" in Surat ar-Rahman 33 indicates the spherical structure of space.

Cloud masses are pulled from West to East by the rotation of the Earth. When the Qur'an revealed this scientific fact 1,400 years ago, the Earth was believed to be flat and resting on the back of an elephant.

The Qur'an uses remarkable words to describe the universe, such as "to wrap the night up in the day" and "to wrap the day up in the night".

The Qur'an gives accurate information about the shape of the world, even though the understanding of astronomy of the time perceived the world differently.

The word "khunnas" in Surat at-Takwir 15 refers to shrinking and cowering, retracting and turning back. The word "jawaar" refers to one that moves and flows, and the word "khunnas" refers to the attraction of the planets towards their own centres and the Sun.

The Qur'an indicates that gravity, the force that attracts objects to the centre, already existed in the universe, but that it could only be revealed with mathematical formulae by Sir Isaac Newton.

The Moon is a means of measurement for people to calculate the year. The positions of the Moon as it revolves in its orbit change, making it possible to see the Moon in different forms at different times.

In former times, a month was calculated by the time between two full moons, but in the Gregorian calendar, a year is the time it takes the Earth to orbit the Sun. The Qur'an contains information about this difference in calendars.

The Moon follows a constant pattern resembling the letter "S" in space as it orbits the Earth and moves with the Earth around the Sun. This pattern is described in the Qur'an as resembling an old date branch.

The Sun and Moon follow specific trajectories, which were discovered by means of astronomical advances in our own time. The Sun travels 17.28 million km (10.74 million miles) a day and all the planets and satellites within its gravitational field travel the same distance.
