Allah has made this world for all living beings who are each sent for specific reasons. Nothing is useless in this world. Everyone is well aware of the fact that the world in which we are living is mortal. All the things are mortal in this world. Nothing will be left in the world whether small or big, all things will be finished when Allah has decided. All the Muslims are accountable because of their deeds on a specific day which is known as the day of resurrection. This is when every Muslim, animals and other things will be rewarded according to their deeds by Allah and Allah will decide how many Muslims will go to heaven and hell. This day will come very soon and will be a very dangerous day for every Muslims, because Allah has guided every Muslim how to live their life, and what to do in their life. This life is given to us by Allah, and he will take us back whenever he wants. We, the Muslims, should prepare ourselves for the results and should fear from the day of resurrection. This will be very painful day for every Muslim.

Allah has decided different phases through which every Muslim has to pass through after death. Allah has made different steps by which every Muslim needs to pass i.e. separation of soul from the body, life in grave and the most important event that will happen on the day of resurrection when Allah will be asking every Muslims the questions about their deeds which they did in their life. This step will decide whether he/she will go to heaven or hell.

On the day of resurrection every Muslim has to give answers to five major questions which is decided by Allah for every Muslim ummah and no one can bypass this prosecution. The questions which are asked to Muslims are:

1. How did he his life?

2. How did he utilize his youth?

3. What means did he use to earn his wealth?

4. How did he spend his wealth?

5. What did he do with his knowledge?

There are lots of different questions that will be asked to every Muslim on the day of resurrection but these five major questions will decide whether they will go to hell or heaven. The day of resurrection is for every Muslim and non-Muslim. Everything in this universe will be accountable on the day of resurrection. Everything will come to an end on this day and no one will be given mercy or given a soft hand. Everyone will be treated equally and on the basis of one’s own deeds, he or she will be accountable on the day of resurrection.

As Allah says in Quran:

“And thou shaft see the angels circling around the ‘Arsh’ (The throne of absolute authority), celebrating the praise of their Lord, and it shall be judged between them with justice, and it shall be said: ‘All praise is of Allah, the Lord of the universe” (Qur’an, 39:67-75)

From ages, astronomers argued about the existence of the universe without any change. But in 1912, American astronomer Vesto Slipher changed this concept by stating galaxies as moving away from earth. This was something new and surprised many people. This laid down the foundations for expanding universe theory.

In1916, Einstein presented Relativity Theory to explain earth’s expansion or contraction and in 1929 American astronomer Hubble confirmed it as getting expanded.

Hubble’s law mentioned galaxies as moving bodies going away from earth with a speed proportional to earth’s distance. This velocity-time relation approach laid the basis for modern cosmology.

However, hundreds of years ago, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) told about earth’s expansion by reciting this Quranic verse:

“And the heaven We created with might, and indeed We are (its) expander.” (Quran 51:47)

During that time heaven was reckoned to what actually is above us and this what the scientist discovered.

Holy Quran mentioned this fact when telescope was not even invented.   Holy Prophet (PBUH) recited what was only known to Allah before.

The Big Bang Theory

Hubble also discovered that galaxies are not only moving away from earth but from one another as well, explaining the expansion of whole universe like a balloon. This discovery was regarded as Big Bang Theory.

According to this theory, universe came into being 12-15 billion years ago from the explosion of an extremely hot point and is continuously expanding.

In 1965, radio astronomers Penzias and Wilson confirmed the Big Bang Theory by discovering the heat traces of that hot point which created the universe. They discovered a 2. 725 degree Kelvin Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation around the universe.  This theory is accepted by astronomers and scientists. In the Holy Quran it is stated:

“He (God) is the Originator of the heavens and the earth…” (Quran 6:101)

“Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them?  Yes; and He is the Knowing Creator. His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is.” (Quran 36:81-82)

Honestly speaking these verses actually laid the foundation of the beginning of the universe. Allah only said Be and everything came into existence.. Can this be an explanation of what led the explosion to begin universe this?

Holy Quran says:

“Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, then We separated them, and made from water every living thing?  Then will they not believe?” (Quran 21:30)

According to the Muslim scholars heaven and earth were under the command of Allah and he split them to create 7 other heavens.

In the above verse, Arabic words “ratq” refers to entity or joined together and “fataq” means We separated, explaining the creation of universe through a split.

The Big Bang Theory confirms the creation of universe exactly as mentioned in the Holy Quran. This is a clear proof that the Holy Quran revealed on Holy Prophet (PBUH), is the Book of God, The Creator of the Universe.
