Evolution of the moon

[أسد الإسلام الجزائري]

Miracle of Quran:


We have made the night and the day two wonders. We ERASED THE WONDER OF THE NIGHT, and made the wonder of the day revealing, that you may seek bounty from your Lord, and know the number of years, and the calculation. We have explained all things in detail. (Quran 17:12)


Ibn 'Abbas (The cousin of prophet Muhammad peace be upon him) says: "The moon used to give luminosity just as the sun." as commentary to this verse.


"We ERASED THE WONDER OF THE NIGHT": that is the blackness in the moon !!

Thanks a lot brother Asad, may ALLAH bless you.

The following quotations from the above link are the most important to explain the quranic miracle

Quote

The moon likely started as a giant ball of magma formed from the remains of a collision by a Mars sized object with the Earth about four and a half billion years ago. After the magma cooled, the moon's crust formed.

Quote

The moon continued to be battered by smaller impacts. Some of the best-known impacts from this period include the Tycho, Copernicus, and Aristarchus craters. So, while the moon today may seem to be an unchanging world, its appearance is the result of billions of years of violent activity.
