created everything in the universe. Our Lord already knows everything
we have not discovered so far and He informs us about some of that in
the Qur'an. We can only learn these things when Allah permits us, and
then we realise that they are miracles of Allah.
The Qur'an contains many scientific miracles. Here, we will deal
with only some of the scientific miracles of the Qur'an. (
For further
information, you can refer to the book, Miracles of the Qur'an.

How The Universe Came Into Existence
The origin of the universe is described in the Qur'an in the
following verse and in many others:
He created the heavens and the earth from nothing… (Surat al-
An'am: 101)
In the first section of the book, we described in detail how the
universe came into existence from nothing 15 billion years ago. In other
words, the universe suddenly came into existence from nothing.
Only the science of the twentieth century enabled us to attain
scientific evidence of this great event. Therefore, it was impossible to
know this scientifically 1,400 years ago. But, as is also mentioned in the
previous verse, Allah told us this fact when the Qur'an was first revealed.
This is a miracle of the Qur'an and one of the pieces of evidence that it is
the Speech of Allah.
