8- When the stars are put out.
(77- The Emissaries, 8 )


2- When the planets are scattered.
(82- The Shattering, 2)

While the verses speak of the putting out of stars, the planets, that are not light sources, will scatter. The Arabic word for a star is “najm,” while “kavkab” is a planet. Given the fact that the planets are dependent on a central star, when this star is no more, the planets will necessarily scatter. (There have been translators who translated both words as stars without heeding the difference between them.) But when we look at the usage of these two words in the Quran, we think that such a distinction has to be made. Planets are not light sources, therefore their extinction is out of question. The Quran displays its miraculous attribute in all its statements.


1- When the sun is rolled.
(81- The Rolling, 1)



and that God will resurrect those who are dead.
(22- The Pilgrimage, 7)




4- When the earth will be shaken up.
(56- The Inevitable, 4)


6- When the seas boil.
(81- The Rolling, 6)

When the seas are suffered to burst forth.
(82- The Shattering, 3)


5- When the wild beasts are summoned.
(81- The Rolling, 5)

The Quran draws our attention to the herding together of animals. We know today that animals react to a tremor even before we, as human beings, realize it. This is a domain in which further research studies are being conducted.

3- And when the earth is flattened out.
(84- The Splitting, 3)
(84- The Splitting, 4)




Its signs have already appeared.
How can they benefit then when it has come upon them?
(47- Muhammad, 18)

The end of the universe and of the world is the most serious event next to its formation. Riches, reputations, situations, families, beauty, ugliness, joy, distress will be no more. Superiority will no longer be measured by riches, possessions and high offices. Now, “superiority” will depend on the sort of life man has led. From the scenery of the end of the universe and the world described in the Quran, there are lessons to draw in this life of ours. All these are not for the mere sake of knowing. What is communicated has as its objective to move people and guide them to God. We must bear in mind the third verse of the 56th sura:

3- It will lower some, and raise others.
(56- The Inevitable, 3)
