4.6 Descriptions Of Natural Phenomena
Alƙur'ani yana jawo hankalin mai karatu zuwa abubuwan halitta masu yawa waɗanda alamu ne na ikon Allah, hikimarsa, rahamarsa, da sauransu. Yayin da fahimtar ɗan Adam game da yadda abubuwan halitta ke aiki ke ƙaruwa, abin al'ajabi na waɗannan bayanan Alƙur'ani yana ƙara bayyana. Wannan ba wuri ba ne na tattaunawa mai zurfi kan wannan batu, amma an ambaci wasu misalai kaɗan don bayani.
The Qur’aan calls the reader’s attention to numerous natural phenomena that are indicators of Allaah’s power, wisdom, mercy, etc. As humanity’s understanding of the workings of the natural has increased, the miraculous nature of these Qur’aanic descriptions has become manifest. This is not the forum for a detailed discussion of this issue, but a few examples are mentioned by way of illustration.
"Sama na gina ta da ƙarfi, kuma lalle ne, Ni mai faɗaɗa ta ne."58
“The heaven I created by might, and, verily, I am expanding it.58
Kalmar Larabci moos‘ioon ita ce ƙirar aiki mai ci gaba (active participle). Tana nuna aikin da ke faruwa a yanzu kuma zai ci gaba zuwa nan gaba. Sai bayan ƙirƙirar na'urar spectrograph da kuma haɓaka babban na'urar hangen nesa mai faɗin inci 100 (reflecting telescope) ne Edward Hubble ya iya gano wasu galaxies a shekarar 1926, kuma a shekarar 1927 ya rubuta jan canjin layin spectra nasu (red shift) wanda ke nuna cewa suna tafiya nesa da namu. Encyclopaedia Britannica ta ce game da wannan: "Ma'anar wannan gano tana da girma ƙwarai. Sararin samaniya, wanda aka daɗe ana ɗauka a tsaye, yana faɗaɗa."59
The Arabic word moos‘ioon is an active participle. It indicates an ongoing action that is occurring at the present time and will continue into the future. It was not until the invention of the spectrograph and the development of a huge (100 in. diameter) reflecting telescope that Edward Hubble was able to discover other galaxies in 1926 and to document in 1927 the red shift of their spectra that indicates they are moving away from ours. The Encyclopaedia Britannica says about this: “The implications of this discovery were immense. The universe, long considered static, was expanding.”59
Allah ya ce a cikin Suratun An-Nur
Allaah says in Soorah an-Noor
Shin ba ka gani ba cewa Allah yana tafiyar da gizagizai a hankali, sa'an nan Ya haɗa su tare, sa'an nan Ya sanya su tari? Kana ganin ruwan sama yana fita daga tsakiyarsu. Yana saukar da ƙanƙara daga sama daga duwatsun ƙanƙara da ke cikinta, yana sa ta sauka a kan wanda Ya so, yana kuma karkatar da ita daga wanda Ya so. {Shin ba ka gani ba cewa Allah yana tafiyar da gizagizai a hankali, sa'an nan Ya haɗa su tare, sa'an nan Ya sanya su tari? Kana ganin ruwan sama yana fita daga tsakiyarsu. Yana saukar da ƙanƙara daga sama daga duwatsun ƙanƙara da ke cikinta, yana sa ta sauka a kan wanda Ya so, yana kuma karkatar da ita daga wanda Ya so.} Note: The text in braces above is a Qur'an verse, so the translation given there follows the same wording; the Qur'an reference is 24:43, and "60" was the number given in the original.
“Have you not seen how Allaah makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them a heap? And you see raindrops issuing from their midst. He sends down hail from the sky from mountains of hail therein, causing it to fall on whom he wills and averting it from whom he wills.” 60

Gulf News of Friday, May 30th, 1997 carried the following item:
Duniya tana cikin wani "ruwan sama na sararin samaniya" mai ci gaba na abubuwan da ba a gano su ba a baya daga sararin samaniya, waɗanda ke zuba ɗimbin ruwa a cikin yanayi, a cewar sabbin shaidu masu ban mamaki da aka fitar ranar Laraba.
Earth is bathed by a steady “cosmic rain” of previously undetected objects from outer space that pour vast quanti-ties of water into the atmosphere, according to startling new evidence released Wednesday.
Abubuwan, ƙwallan dusar ƙanƙara masu nauyin tan 20 zuwa 40 da girman gida mai ɗakunan kwana biyu, suna shiga sararin samaniya ta dubban kowace rana, suna wargajewa ba tare da cutarwa ba a tsawon kilomita 600 zuwa 15,000 sama da ƙasa, kuma suna barin manyan gizagizai na tururin ruwa wanda daga ƙarshe yakan sauka a saman duniya a matsayin ruwan sama, a cewar Louis A.

The objects, 20- to 40-ton snowballs the size of two-bedroom houses, streak into the atmosphere by the thousands each day, disintegrate harmlessly 600 to 15,000 miles up and deposit large clouds of water vapor that eventually falls on Earth’s surface as rain, according to Louis A. Frank of the University of Iowa. He led the research team that for the first time has captured images of these objects...taken at both ultraviolet and visible wavelengths by Frank’s specially designed instrument aboard NASA’s year old Polar spacecraft.61
Waɗannan misalan ƙanƙanuwar ɓangare ne kawai na abin da ke ƙarƙashin ruwa. Akwai wasu maganganu masu ban mamaki na gaskiya game da ilimin tekuna, ilimin duwatsu da ƙasa, ilimin asalin sararin samaniya, ilimin kimiyyar lissafi, ilimin halittu, ilimin halittar tayi, ilimin asalin kalmomi, ilimin ruwa da sauran fannoni.62
These examples are just the “tip of the iceberg.” There are other remarkably accurate statements about oceanography, geology, cosmogony, physics, biology, embryology, etymology, hydrology and other subjects.62
