00:00Now, in fact, Stephen Hawking, an English, he was a scientist and astronomer, and he's
00:11well-renowned and respected among all the scientists. He actually stated that the expansion
00:19of the universe is the most important discovery of the 20th century. And Stephen Hawking,
00:28he was actually born in Oxford and died in Cambridge in 2018. In fact, what an intellectual.
00:38Can you imagine if you were born in Oxford and died in Cambridge? You could probably have
00:43discussed something or other. Now, so that's that's what Stephen Hawking stated. Now, in
00:54the Quran, over 1400 years ago, it's probably 1400, 20, 30, 40 years ago. In the Quran, Allah
01:08Azza wa Jal, in Surat al-Dariyat, which is Surat al-Dariyat 51, 47, which is the 51st verse,
01:22the 51st Surah number 51, the 51st Surah, and the verse is 47. And in Surat al-Dariyat, Allah
01:30Azza wa Jal, Jalla Fi Ula states,
01:35and the sky, and the firmament, and the heaven, and the universe, we built, banayna ha, we built,
01:55we constructed, bi-aidin, with hands. Wa inna lamusi'un. And we are expanding, expanding it, expanding the universe.
02:08Wa al-sama'a banayna ha, bi-aidin, wa inna lamusi'un. So the expansion of the universe is indeed
02:20mentioned in the Quran, over 1400 years ago. Many attribute the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad,
02:30Salla al-Azizu al-Hakimu alayhi wasallama. But our Prophet was illiterate his entire life,
02:38he never learnt to read and write. Some people attribute that up to today, believe,
02:46believe it or not, today there are people who claim that the Prophet Muhammad wrote the Quran.
02:51So it would suffice for them to read the Quran themselves, to understand that this is the
02:58word of God and could not come from a human being. Others actually state that the Prophet
03:05copied from the Bible, or from the Torah, from some other books, they said he copied it from
03:10from the Bible or other books, but this information is nowhere to be found in any other scripture
03:15before the Quran, only in the Quran, and 99% of the scientific miracles in the Quran are nowhere
03:22to be found, except in the Quran, no other book. The Quran is the only book which is
03:27the word of God from cover to cover, so to speak, the entire. So it's not. So this is down to you,
03:37to think, ponder, reflect on the verses we share with you, to read the Quran. But ponder and think.
03:48The Quran always ask us to think, to ponder, to question, not to accept. Always ask for proof,
03:54always provide proof. If you don't have a proof from the Quran or for the scripture or hadith saying
03:59which, you know, from which hadith exactly, who said it, from whom, chain of narration,
04:05if you have no proof, it's a religion which relies on facts and evidence and ask you to question things
04:13things and ask you to ponder and reflect on things. So now it is clear, it is down to, it's up to
04:23every person to believe what they wish to believe. But when you have hard facts in front of you,
04:28we invite people to think about them, to ponder, to reflect, read and do their research.
04:36And then for those who do not believe in God, maybe it will give them guidance.
04:44So we shall rehearse our, in a nutshell, verse, a new one, which is Luqman 3125.
04:58Luqman is the thirty-first surah in the Quran and the verse we'll rehearse is twenty-five.
05:03In fact, Luqman was a wise man. He was a wise and pious man.
05:10And in this verse, it states,
05:14وَلَا إِنْ سَأَلْتَهُمْ مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ اللَّهِ
05:25وَلَا إِنْ سَأَلْتَهُمْ مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ اللَّهِ
05:28So if you were to ask them, if you were to ask them, who created the skies and the earth, they would say Allah, they would say God.
05:40Who else could have, could have built them, could have created this world.
05:47So, but it is very important to tell, one widow has this, if you were to ask them, when you say them, you would think automatically that people who believe in Allah, who believe in God, know.
06:00If you read two verses or three verses before, it clearly states the disbelievers, the non-believers.
06:06So those who do not believe in God, the atheist, if you ask them, who built the sky, who built all the skies, who built all the universe, they would reply to you, it's God, because there's no other explanation.
06:19In fact, we'll speak about the Big Bang some other time, because there is another person, other topic.
06:26But the Big Bang was an explosion.
06:29And from this explosion, there are two trillion galaxies, according to the scientists.
06:34And these two trillion galaxies, they're all functioning perfectly well.
06:40They're functioning perfectly well.
06:42So from an explosion, you cannot get, normally you get chaos, you do not get two trillion galaxies functioning perfectly well.
06:51So this is the reason why Allah stated, and if you were to ask them who created the sky, the skies or the galaxies, the universe and the earth, they would say Allah, there's no, there's no other plausible or possible reply.
07:06So, we have concluded this topic.
