“Soon shall We show them Our signs in the universe and in their own selves, until it becomes clear to them that this Qur'an is indeed the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is a witness over everything?” (Qur’an;41:53); “We did not create heaven and earth and everything between them to no purpose. That is the opinion of those who disbelieve..” (Qur’an; 38: 27),
“Verily in the heavens and the earth are Signs for those who believe. (Qur’an; 45:3). “To God belongs the Mystery of the heavens and the earth. And the Decision of the Hour (of Judgment) is as the twinkling of an eye, or even quicker: for God hath power over all things.” (Qur’an; 16:77). “Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects evil and believes in God hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And God hears and knows all things.” (Qur’an; 2:255).
Introduction:
A central, common core of Islam, Judaism & Christianity
is the affirmation of the reality of One, and Only One, God. Adherents of
Abrahamic faiths believe that there is a God who created the universe out of
nothing and who has absolute sovereignty over all his creation; this includes,
of course, human beings, who are not only utterly dependent on this creative
power but also sinful and who, or so the faithful must believe, can only make
adequate sense of their lives by accepting, without question, God's ordinances
for them. The varieties of atheism are numerous, but all atheists reject such a
set of beliefs. In philosophy there are three major, purely rational, arguments
for the existence of God that have had a significant influence on the history
of philosophy of religion. A wide variety of arguments exist which can be
categorized as metaphysical, logical, empirical, or subjective. The existence
of God is subject to lively debate both in philosophy, the philosophy of
religion being almost entirely devoted to the question—and in popular culture. Certain
theists acknowledge that belief in the existence of God may not be amenable to
demonstration or refutation, but rests on faith alone. The atheistic conclusion
is that the arguments and evidence both indicate there is insufficient reason
to believe in the existence of God, and that personal subjective religious
experiences are indistinguishable from misapprehension.
Philosophers and theists have come out with many popular arguments
to support the existence of God: The cosmological argument argues that there
was a "first cause", or "prime mover" who is identified as
God. The teleological argument argues that the universe's order and complexity
are best explained by reference to a creator God. It starts with a rather more
complicated claim about the world, i.e. that it exhibits order and design. The
hypothesis of Intelligent design proposes that certain features of the universe
and of living things are the product of an intelligent cause. The ontological
argument is based on arguments about a "being greater than which cannot be
conceived". The anthropic argument suggests that basic facts, such as
humanity's existence, are best explained by the existence of God. Some
philosophers see the existence of Qualia (or the hard problem of consciousness)
as strong arguments against materialism and therefore for the existence of
material and immaterial entities. The transcendental argument suggests that
logic, science, ethics, and other serious matters do not make sense in the
absence of God, and that atheistic arguments must ultimately refute themselves
if pressed with rigorous consistency. The atheists believe that existence of
God cannot be proved through science. However the Muslims scholars like Harun
Yahya, Dr.Zakir Naik and many others have done a lot of research work to prove it
scientifically, which forms basis for this paper. Let’s start with the biggest
thing, The Universe.
The Universe: Sign of Creator:
The
universe is commonly defined as the totality of everything that exists,
including all matter and energy, the planets, stars, galaxies, and the contents
of intergalactic space. Definitions and usage vary and similar terms include
the cosmos, the world and nature. Scientific observation of earlier stages in
the development of the universe, which can be seen at great distances, suggests
that the universe has been governed by the same physical laws and constants
throughout most of its extent and history. There are various multiverse
theories, in which physicists have suggested that our universe might be one
among many universes that likewise exist.
The
universe is immensely large and possibly infinite in volume. The region visible
from Earth (the observable universe) is a sphere with a radius of about 46
billion light years, based on where the expansion of space has taken the most
distant objects observed. For comparison, the diameter of a typical galaxy is
only 30,000 light-years, and the typical distance between two neighbouring
galaxies is only 3 million light-years. As an example, our Milky Way Galaxy is
roughly 100,000 light years in diameter, and our nearest sister galaxy, the
Andromeda Galaxy, is located roughly 2.5 million light years away. There are
probably more than 100 billion galaxies [1011] in the observable
universe. Typical galaxies range from dwarfs with as few as ten million [107]
stars up to giants with one trillion [1012] stars, all orbiting the galaxy's center of
mass. A 2010 study by astronomers estimated that the observable universe
contains 300 sextillion 3×1013
stars.
The
part where the Universe isn't just bigger than you can possibly comprehend, but
according to recent evidence, billions of times larger than that. What It Says:
That the universe is big, so big, that just that fact, just its mere bigness,
is enough to blow your tiny ant mind. And it just keeps getting bigger. Let’s
examine the famous Hubble Ultra Deep Field image, the most massive photo ever
taken. It shows that there are approximately 10,000 galaxies. Each of those
galaxies contains anywhere from ten million to one trillion stars. The average
star is roughly a million times the size of Earth. And yet, with all that junk,
the Universe is more than 90 percent empty space. All of that, in this tiny
photo. A photo that took 400 orbits and 800 exposures to take. And the kicker?
The photo covers one thirteen-millionth of the entire night sky.
If
you are like us, it leaves you alternately awash with spiritual wonder and
horrified feelings of utter insignificance. Actually imagining just how
infinitesimal you are in the scope of the universe is like autoerotic
asphyxiation: it’s not as pleasant as you would think, and if you do it wrong
you can end up a vegetable. You possibly imagine that much space and that many
planets and stars and atoms smashing together without intelligent life forming?
Now its just a matter of getting around that pesky general relativity and well
be chilling with aliens in no time. Or, like, a million years.
So
all that just said about how big the universe is (at least 90 billion light
years)? That is small beans. The Cosmological Horizon is here to make your day
a whole lot more complicated. Since we can only observe stellar bodies that
have had some effects on us (usually bombarding us with light), there is an
outer limit to what we can see of the universe. Hence, the observable universe.
What about the rest? The parts of the universe beyond our Starcraft-style fog
of war? Well, according to some math we have no interest in going into, the
size of the actual universe is so large that if the universe we just described
(the impossibly, mind-bogglingly large one) were the size of a quarter, the
actual universe would be the size of the Earth.
Level Of Mind Blowingness: The sound of one hand clapping for a tree
falling in the woods while no ones around except a guy whose skull is wired
with C4 explosive. Hence the mere vastness of universe indicates the greatness
of its Great Creator.
The
Eternal Universe:
Towards the end of the 19th century, atheists formulated a
world view that they thought explained everything; they denied that the
universe was created saying that it had no beginning but had existed forever.
They claimed that the universe had no purpose but that its order and balance
were the result of chance; they believed that the question of how human beings
and other living things came into being was answered by Darwinism. They
believed that Marx or Durkheim had explained history and sociology, and that
Freud had explained psychology on the basis of atheist assumptions.
However, these views were later invalidated in the 20th
century by scientific, political and social developments. Many and various
discoveries in the fields of astronomy, biology, psychology and social sciences
have nullified the bases of all atheist suppositions. In his book, God: The
Evidence, The Reconciliation of Faith and Reason in a Postsecular World, the
American scholar Patrick Glynn from the George Washington University writes:
The past two decades of research have overturned nearly all
the important assumptions and predictions of an earlier generation of modern
secular and atheist thinkers relating to the issue of God. Modern thinkers
assumed that science would reveal the universe to be ever more random and
mechanical; instead it has discovered unexpected new layers of intricate order
that bespeak an almost unimaginably vast master design. Modern psychologists
predicted that religion would be exposed as a neurosis and outgrown; instead,
religious commitment has been shown empirically to be a vital component of
basic mental health…
Few people seem to realize this, but by now it should be
clear: Over the course of a century in the great debate between science and
faith, the tables have completely turned. In the wake of Darwin
Assuming the validity of the old model of an ‘Eternal
Universe’, Hugh David Politzer, an American theoretical physicist who shared
the 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics, opposed the idea of a creation: The universe
was not a created object, if it were, then it would have to be created
instantaneously by God and brought into existence from nothing. To admit
creation, one has to admit, in the first place, the existence of a moment when
the universe did not exist, and that something came out of nothingness. This is
something to which science can not accede. By supporting the idea of an eternal
universe against that of creation, Politzer thought that science was on his
side. However, very soon, the fact that Politzer alluded to by his words, “if
it is so, we must accept the existence of a creator”, that is, that the
universe had a beginning, was proven.
The Big
Bang:
This proof came as a result of the “Big Bang” theory,
perhaps the most important concept of 20th century astronomy. The Big Bang
theory was formulated after a series of discoveries. In 1929, the American
astronomer, Edwin Hubble, noticed that the galaxies of the universe were
continually moving away from one another and that the universe was expanding.
If the flow of time in an expanding universe were reversed, then it emerged
that the whole universe must have come from a single point. Astronomers
assessing the validity of Hubble’s discovery were faced with the fact that this
single point was a “metaphysical” state of reality in which there was an
infinite gravitational attraction with no mass. Matter and time came into being
by the explosion of this mass-less point. In other words, the universe was
created from nothing. In the face of proven scientific facts, atheists have
been squeezed into a corner. Anthony Flew, an atheist professor of philosophy
at the University
of Reading
Notoriously,
confession is good for the soul. I will therefore begin by confessing that the
Stratonician atheist has to be embarrassed by the contemporary cosmological consensus.
For it seems that the cosmologists are providing a scientific proof of what St. Thomas
Some materialists have a relatively logical view of this
matter. For example, the English materialist physicist, H.P. Lipson,
unwillingly accepts the scientific fact of creation. He writes: I think …that
we must…admit that the only acceptable explanation is creation. I know that
this is anathema to physicists, as indeed it is to me, but we must not reject
that we do not like if the experimental evidence supports it.
Thus, the fact arrived at finally by modern astronomy is
this: time and matter were brought into being by an eternally powerful Creator
independent of both of them. The eternal power that created the universe in
which we live is God who is the possessor of infinite might, knowledge and
wisdom.
Creation Models: Criticism
& Analysis:
It is patently obvious that the Big Bang means the
creation of the universe out of nothing and this is surely evidence of willful
creation. Regarding this fact, some materialist astronomers and physicists have
tried to advance alternative explanations to oppose this reality. Mention has
already been made of the steady state theory and it was pointed out it was
clung to, by those who were uncomfortable with the notion of "creation
from nothingness", despite all the evidence to the contrary in an attempt
to shore up their philosophy. There are also a number of models that have been
advanced by materialists who accept the Big Bang theory but try to exorcise it
of the notion of creation. One of these is the "oscillating" universe
model; another is the "quantum model of universe". Let us examine
these theories and see why they are invalid.
Oscillating
Universe Model:
The oscillating universe model was advanced by the
astronomers who disliked the idea the Big Bang was the beginning of the
universe. In this model, it is claimed that the present expansion of the
universe will eventually be reversed at some point and begin to contract. This
contraction will cause everything to collapse into a single point that will
then explode again, initiating a new round of expansion. This process, they
say, is repeated infinitely in time. This model also holds that the universe
has experienced this transformation an infinite number of times already and
that it will continue to do so forever. In other words, the universe exists for
eternity but it expands and collapses at different intervals with a huge
explosion punctuating each cycle. The universe we live in is just one of those
infinite universes going through the same cycle.
This is nothing but a feeble attempt to accommodate the
fact of the Big Bang to notions about an infinite universe. The proposed
scenario is unsupported by the results of scientific research over the last
15-20 years, which show that it is impossible for such an
"oscillating" universe idea to come into being. Furthermore the laws
of physics offer no reason why a contracting universe should explode again
after collapsing into a single point: it ought to stay just as it is. Nor do
they offer a reason why an expanding universe should ever begin to contract in
the first place.
Even if we allow that there is some mechanism by which
this cycle of contraction-explosion-expansion does take place, the crucial
point is that this cycle cannot go on for ever, as is claimed. Calculations for
this model show that each universe will transfer an amount of entropy to its
successor. In other words, the amount of useful energy available becomes less
each time and every "opening" universe will open more slowly and have
a larger diameter. This will cause a much smaller universe to form the next
time around and so on, eventually petering out into nothing. Even if "open
and close" universes can exist, they cannot endure for eternity. At some
point it becomes necessary for "something" to be created from
"nothing". Put briefly, the "oscillating" universe model is
a hopeless fantasy whose physical reality is impossible.
Quantum Model of
Universe:
The "quantum model of universe" is another
attempt to purge the Big Bang of its creationist implications. Supporters of
this model base it on the observations of quantum (subatomic) physics. In
quantum physics, it is to be observed that subatomic particles appear and
disappear spontaneously in a vacuum. Interpreting this observation as
"matter can originate at quantum level, this is a property pertaining to
matter", some physicists try to explain the origination of matter from
non-existence during the creation of the universe as a "property pertaining
to matter" and present it as a part of laws of nature. In this model, our
universe is interpreted as a subatomic particle in a bigger one.
However this syllogism is definitely out of question and
in any case cannot explain how the universe came into being. William Lane
Craig, the author of The Big Bang: Theism and Atheism explains why:
A quantum
mechanical vacuum spawning material particles is far from the ordinary idea of
a "vacuum" (meaning nothing). Rather, a quantum vacuum is a sea of
continually forming and dissolving particles, which borrow energy from the
vacuum for their brief existence. This is not "nothing," and hence,
material particles do not come into being out of nothing.
So in quantum physics, matter "does not exist when
it was not before". What happens is that ambient energy suddenly becomes
matter and just as suddenly disappears becoming energy again. In short, there
is no condition of "existence from nothingness" as is claimed. In
physics, no less than in other branches of the sciences, there are atheist
scientists who do not hesitate to disguise the truth by overlooking critical
points and details in their attempt to support the materialist view and achieve
their ends. For them, it is much more important to defend materialism and
atheism than to reveal scientific facts and realities. In the face of the
reality mentioned above, most scientists dismiss the quantum universe model. C.
J. Isham explains that "this model is not accepted widely because of the
inherent difficulties that it poses." Even some of the originators of this
idea, such as Brout and Spindel, have abandoned it.
A recent and much-publicized version of the quantum
universe model was advanced by the physicist Stephen Hawking. In his book A
Brief History of Time, Hawking states that the Big Bang doesn't necessarily
mean existence from nothingness. Instead of "no time" before the Big
Bang, Hawking proposed the concept of "imaginary time". According to
Hawking, there was only a 10-43 second "imaginary" time interval
before the Big Bang took place and
"real" time was formed after that. Hawking's hope was just to ignore
the reality of "timelessness" before the Big Bang by means of this
"imaginary" time. Stephen
Hawking also tries to advance different explanations for the Big Bang other
than Creation just as other Materialist scientists do by relying upon
contradictions and false concepts. As a concept, "imaginary time" is
tantamount to zero or non-existence–like the imaginary number of people in a
room or the imaginary number of cars on a road. Stephen Hawking also tries to
advance different explanations for the Big Bang other than Creation just as
other Materialist scientists do by relying upon contradictions and false
concepts. Here Hawking is just playing with words. He claims that equations are
right when they are related to an imaginary time but in fact this has no
meaning. The mathematician Sir Herbert Dingle refers to the possibility of
faking imaginary things as real in math as:
In the language of
mathematics we can tell lies as well as truths, and within the scope of
mathematics itself there is no possible way of telling one from the other. We
can distinguish them only by experience or by reasoning outside the
mathematics, applied to the possible relation between the mathematical solution
and its physical correlate.
To put it briefly, a mathematically imaginary or
theoretical solution need not have a true or a real consequence. Using a
property exclusive to mathematics, Hawking produces hypotheses that are
unrelated to reality. But what reason could he have for doing this? It's easy
to find the answer to that question in his own words. Hawking admits that he
prefers alternative universe models to the Big Bang because the latter
"hints at divine creation", which such models are designed to oppose.
What all this shows is that alternative models to the
Big Bang such as ‘Steady-State’, the ‘Open and Close Universe Model’, and ‘Quantum
Universe Models’ in fact spring from the philosophical prejudices of
materialists. Scientific discoveries have demonstrated the reality of the Big
Bang and can even explain "existence from nothingness". And this is
very strong evidence that the universe is created by Allah, a point that
materialists utterly reject.
An example of this opposition to the Big Bang is to be
found in an essay by John Maddox, the editor of Nature (a materialist
magazine), that appeared in 1989. In "Down with the Big Bang", Maddox
declares the Big Bang to be philosophically unacceptable because it helps
theologists by providing them with strong support for their ideas. The author
also predicted that the Big Bang would be disproved and that support for it
would disappear within a decade. Maddox can only have been even more
discomforted by the subsequent discoveries during the next ten years that have
provided further evidence of the existence of the Big Bang. Some materialists
do act with more common sense on this subject. The British Materialist H. P.
Lipson accepts the truth of creation, albeit "unpleasantly", when he
says:
If living matter
is not, then caused by the interplay of atoms, natural forces, and radiation,
how has it come into being?…I think, however, that we must…admit that the only
acceptable explanation is creation. I know that this is anathema to physicists,
as indeed it is to me, but we must not reject that we do not like if the
experimental evidence supports it.
In conclusion,
the truth disclosed by science is this: Matter and time have been brought into
being by an independent possessor of immense power, by a Creator. Allah, the
Possessor of almighty power, knowledge and intelligence, has created the
universe we live in.
Allah says: “And it is We Who have constructed the
heaven with might, and verily, it is We Who are steadily expanding it”.
(Qur'an, 51:47) “Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were
joined together (as one unit of Creation) before We clove them asunder? (Big
Bang) We made from water every living thing. Will they not then
believe?”(Qur’an;21:30), “Moreover He Comprehended in His design the sky and it
had been (as) smoke: He said to it and to the earth: "Come ye together
willingly or unwillingly. "They said: "We do come (together) in
willing obedience."(Qur’an;41:11);“Who hath created and further given
order and proportion” (Qur’an;87:2).
Random
Universe:
A second atheist dogma rendered invalid in the 20th
century by discoveries in astronomy is the idea of a ‘Random Universe’. The
view that the matter in the universe, the heavenly bodies and the laws that
determine the relationships among them has no purpose but is the result of
chance, has been dramatically discounted. For the first time since the 1970’s,
scientists have begun to recognize the fact that the whole physical balance of
the universe is adjusted delicately in favor of human life. With the advance of
research, it has been discovered that the physical, chemical and biological
laws of the universe, basic forces such as gravity and electro-magnetism, the
structure of atoms and elements are all ordered exactly as they have to be for
human life. Western scientists have called this extraordinary design the
“Anthropic Principle”. That is, every aspect of the universe is designed with a
view that makes the existence of intelligent
life inevitable.
Anthropic
Principle:
The basics of the “Anthropic Principle” may be summarized
the as follows:
·
The speed of the first expansion of the universe (the force
of the Big Bang explosion) was exactly the velocity that it had to be.
According to scientists’ calculations, if the expansion rate had differed from
its actual value by more than one part in a billion billion, then the universe
would either have recollapsed before it ever reached its present size or else
have splattered in every direction in a way never to unite again. To put it
another way, even at the first moment of the universe’s existence there was a
fine calculation of the accuracy of a billion billionth. If the rate of
expansion of universe would have been less or more than the size of a sand
particle the universe would have not existed as is now.
·
The four physical forces in the universe (gravitational
force, weak nuclear force, strong nuclear force, and electromagnetic force) are
all at the necessary levels for an ordered universe to emerge and for life to
exist. Even the tiniest variations in these forces (for example, one in 1039,
or one in 1028; that is—crudely calculated—one in a billion billion
billion billion), the universe would either be composed only of radiation or of
no other element besides hydrogen.
·
There are many other delicate adjustments that make the
earth ideal for human life: the size of the sun, its distance from the earth,
the unique physical and chemical properties of water, the wavelength of the
sun’s rays, the way that the earth’s atmosphere contains the gases necessary to
allow respiration, or the Earth’s magnetic field being ideally suited to human
life.
This delicate balance is one of the most striking
discoveries of modern astrophysics. The well known astronomer, Paul Davies,
writes in the last paragraph of his book The Cosmic Blueprint, “The impression
of Design is overwhelming”. In an article in the journal Nature, the
astrophysicist W. Press writes, “There is a grand design in the Universe that
favors the development of intelligent life.” The interesting thing about this
is that the majority of the scientists that have made these discoveries were of
the materialist point of view and came to this conclusion unwillingly. They did
not undertake their scientific investigations hoping to find a proof for God’s
existence. But most of them, if not all of them, despite their unwillingness,
arrived at this conclusion as the only explanation for the extraordinary design
of the universe.
In his book, The Symbiotic Universe the American
astronomer, George Greenstein, acknowledges this fact: How could this possibly
have come to pass [that the laws of physics conform themselves to life]? …As we
survey all the evidence, the thought insistently arises that some supernatural
agency—or, rather Agency—must be involved. Is it possible that suddenly,
without intending to, we have stumbled upon scientific proof of the existence
of a Supreme Being? Was it God who stepped in and so providentially crafted the
cosmos for our benefit?
By beginning his question with “Is it possible”,
Greenstein, an atheist, tries to ignore that plain fact that has confronted
him. But many scientists who have approached the question without prejudice
acknowledge that the universe has been created especially for human life.
Materialism is now being viewed as an erroneous belief outside the realm of
science. The American geneticist, Robert Griffiths, acknowledges this fact when
he says, “If we need an atheist for a debate, I go to the philosophy
department. The physics department isn’t much use.”
In his book Nature’s Destiny: How the Laws of Biology
Reveal Purpose in the Universe, which examines how physical, chemical and
biological laws are amazingly calculated in an “ideal” way with a view to the
requirements of human life, the well-known molecular biologist, Michael Denton
writes: The new picture that has emerged in twentieth-century astronomy
presents a dramatic challenge to the presumption which has been prevalent
within scientific circles during most of the past four centuries: that life is
a peripheral and purely contingent phenomenon in the cosmic scheme.
In short, the idea of a ‘Random Universe’, perhaps
atheism’s most basic pillar, has been proved invalid. Scientists now openly
speak of the collapse of materialism. The supposition whose falsity God reveals
in the Qur’an: “We did not create heaven and earth and everything between them
to no purpose. That is the opinion of those who disbelieve…” (Qur’an; 38: 27)
was shown to be invalid by science in the 1970’s.
Mysteries
of Quantum Physics lead to God:
“To God belongs the Mystery of the heavens
and the earth. And the Decision of the Hour (of Judgment) is as the twinkling
of an eye, or even quicker: for God hath power over all things.” (Qur’an;
16:77).
If
two electrons are created together, they are forever entangled, regardless of
the distance between the two electrons; a change in quantum spin in one
electron will immediately cause the other electron to change spin as well.
The
part where you jiggle an electron on one side of the universe and an invisible
force traverses millions of light years and smacks another electron into
wiggling instantaneously, which is about a million years faster than is
technically possible without time travel. In theory, you could separate two
electrons by as much space as you wanted (say, the breadth of the universe),
and they are still linked in such a way that actions taken on one would affect
the other instantaneously. Meaning information is being transmitted at speeds
faster than light. Meaning, if you want to really go nuts, time travel. And
though the party pooping scientists have been busy coming up with limitations
on the kind of information that could be transmitted, no one has yet been able
to disprove the theory that there is an invisible force in the universe capable
of affecting matter millions of light-years away instantly. So at Big Bang
there was a point in the past in which every atom in the universe was condensed
into a singularity. Which means everything is quantumly entangled. Some
scientists have even gone so far as to claim that quantum entanglement shows
that there is no such thing as space, and that everything in the universe is
still touching.
Here is an other explanation: When a photon (photon is
a force carrier particle, usually polarized laser light) passes through
matter, it will be absorbed by an electron. Eventually, and spontaneously, the
electron will return to its ground state by emitting the photon. Certain
crystal structures increase the likelihood that the photon will split into two
photons, both of them with longer wavelengths than the original. Keep in mind
that a longer wavelength means a lower frequency, and thus less energy. The
total energy of the two photons must equal the energy of the photon originally
fired from the laser (conservation of energy). When the original photon splits into two photons, the resulting photon
pair is considered entangled.
The process of using certain crystals
to split incoming photons into pairs of photons is called parametric down-conversion. Normally the photons exit the crystal such
that one is aligned in a horizontally polarized light cone, the other aligned
vertically. By adjusting the experiment, the horizontal and vertical light
cones can be made to overlap. Even though the polarization of the individual photons
is unknown, the nature of quantum mechanics predicts they differ. To illustrate, if an entangled photon meets a
vertical polarizing filter, the photon may or may not pass through. If it does,
then its entangled partner will not because the instant that the first photon's
polarization is known, the second photon's polarization will be the exact
opposite. It is this instant communication between the entangled photons to
indicate each other's polarization that lies at the heart of quantum
entanglement. This is the "spooky action at a distance" that Einstein
believed was theoretically implausible.
Quantum Entanglement, the God Effect!
Quantum events obey the laws of quantum theory, which governs the behaviour
of minute objects like atoms and subatomic particles, including photons of
light. By contrast with the laws of ''classical'' physics (which apply to the
relatively large objects of the everyday world), quantum physics often exhibits
behaviour that seems impossible. The connections that persist between distant
but entangled particles are ''one of the deep mysteries of quantum mechanics.
'These connections are a fact of nature proven by experiments, but to try to
explain them philosophically is very difficult. Albert Einstein sneered at the
very possibility of such a thing, calling it ''spooky action at a distance.''
Scientists still (somewhat shamefacedly) speak of the ''magic'' of ''quantum
weirdness.'' And yet all experiments in recent years have shown that Einstein
was wrong and that action at a distance is real.
In
the early 1930s, Einstein had problems with the whole of quantum physics, which
is ironic given that it was partially based on his Nobel Prize winning paper on
the photoelectric effect. What he didn’t like was the way quantum particles
don’t have fixed values for their properties until they are observed. Why?
Einstein couldn’t relate to a universe where probability ruled! That’s why he
famously said that "Der Herrgott würfelt nicht!" or "The Lord
doesn’t play dice!" Einstein believed that underneath these mathematical
probabilities were fixed hidden realities that we just couldn’t see. That was
why he, Podolsky and Rosen dreamed up the idea of what we now call
"Quantum Entanglement" in 1935. It was to show that either quantum
theory was incomplete, because it said there was no hidden information, or it
was possible to instantly influence something at a distance. As that seemed
incredible, he thought it showed that quantum theory was incorrect the way it
had been presented with probabilistic mathematics. Quantum entanglement is at
the heart of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) Paradox developed in 1935.
It
did take a long time to prove that Quantum Entanglement truly existed. It
wasn’t until the 1980s that it was clearly demonstrated. But it has been shown
without doubt that this is the case. In
1982, at the university
of Paris
In
1935 a famous paper by Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen
challenged the quantum theory prediction that entangled particles could remain
instantly in touch with each other. One of their objections was based on the
speed limit imposed by Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity: nothing can
travel faster than the speed of light. Einstein and his colleagues preferred a
more intuitive explanation of the simultaneous correlation between entangled
particles, based on the idea that the match between them is ordained by their
identical antecedents. The behaviour of each particle, they argued, is the
product of hidden ''local'' factors, not by spooky long-distance effects. But
again and again in recent years, increasingly sensitive experiments have
decisively proved that Einstein's explanation was wrong and quantum theory is
correct.
Since
the 1970's, physicists have been testing a prediction of quantum theory that
''entangled'' particles continue to communicate with each other instantaneously
even when very far apart. Entangled
particles are identical entities that share common origins and properties, and
remain in instantaneous touch with each other, no matter how wide the gap
between them. Past experiments on entangled particles were carried out over
distances of 100 yards or less. By showing that the link between two entangled
particles survives even when they are seven miles apart, Dr. Gisin set a
dramatic distance record.

In
essence, Dr. Gisin sent pairs of photons in opposite directions to villages
north and south of Geneva
The Measurement or Observation, Effects
on Behaviour of Entangled Particles:
One
of the weird aspects of quantum mechanics is that something can simultaneously
exist and not exist; if a particle is capable of moving along several different
paths, or existing in several different states, the ‘Uncertainty Principle of
Quantum Mechanics’ allows it to travel along all paths and exist in all
possible states simultaneously. However, if the particle happens to be measured
by some means, [observation or instrumental measurement] its path or state is
no longer uncertain. The simple act of measurement instantly forces it into
just one path or state. Physicists
call this a ''collapse of the wave function.''
The amazing thing is that if just one particle in an
entangled pair is measured, the wave function of both particles collapses into
a definite state that is the same for both partners, even separated by great
distances. The ‘double slit’ and ‘single slit’ experiments of electrons
behaving as wave and particle respectively but once electron is observed it
knows being observed and behaves as single shot electron not as wave. This is
strange phenomena. The particle knows when it is being watched and when it was
not. This shows the simple means of intelligence by reacting to visual stimuli.
In the STI [Self thinking Interface] Device created by Physicst Roger
R.Vogelsan in the early 70’ proved that there is ultimate knowledge in the
FORCE which connects to all freed electrons. This FORCE knows everything its
Omniscient.
Among
several proposed explanations of all this is the ''many worlds'' hypothesis:
the notion that for every possible pathway or state open to a particle, there
is a separate universe. For each of 10 possible pathways a quantum particle
might follow, for example, there would exist a separate universe.
Since
the 1970's, Dr. John F. Clauser of the University
of California at Berkeley, Dr. Alain
Aspect at the Institute des Optics in Orsay ,
France
In
Dr. Gisin's experiment, as in earlier ones, no signal of any kind was
transmitted between the photons, but despite this, one of the photons ''knew''
what happened to its distant twin, and mimicked the twin's response. This
response took less than one ten-thousandth of the time a light beam would have
needed to carry the news from one photon to the other at a speed of 186,282
miles per second. (In fact, the correlation between the two particles was
presumably instantaneous. The Swiss experiment merely set an upper limit on the
time required for the response as about three ten-billionths of a second.). Dr. Gisin's experiment made use of a system
of paired interferometers developed by Dr. James D. Franson of Johns Hopkins
University
''You
start with an ultraviolet photon and split it into two photons. One goes one
way and the other goes another way, both to identical interferometers. Entering
its own interferometer, each photon must make a random decision as to whether
it will travel a long pathway through the device or a short one. Then you look
for a correlation between the pathways taken by the photons in their respective
interferometers.'' If the timing between the photons is exactly adjusted, each
twin seems to know what the other is doing and matches its choice of pathway to
coincide with that of its distant partner. Dr. Franson said of the correlation
demonstrated over a seven-mile course by the Swiss experiment, ''It's pretty
amazing.''
Faster than Speed of Light:
It
is assumed that the numerical correlation between two particles different from
information. Quantum theory is confirmed by experiments, and so is relativity
theory, which prevents us from sending messages faster than light. It is
unknown that there's any intuitive explanation of what that means.
Tunnelling:
Another
deep quantum mystery for which physicists have no answer has to do with ''tunnelling''
-- the bizarre ability of particles to sometimes penetrate impenetrable
barriers. This effect is not only well demonstrated; it is the basis of tunnel
diodes and similar devices vital to modern electronic systems. Tunnelling is
based on the fact that quantum theory is statistical in nature and deals with
probabilities rather than specific predictions; there is no way to know in
advance when a single radioactive atom will decay, for example. The
probabilistic nature of quantum events means that if a stream of particles
encounters an obstacle, most of the particles will be stopped in their tracks
but a few, conveyed by probability alone, will magically appear on the other
side of the barrier. The process is called ''tunnelling,'' although the word in
itself explains nothing. Dr. Chiao's group at Berkeley, Dr. Aephraim M.
Steinberg at the University of Toronto and others are investigating the strange
properties of tunnelling, which was one of the subjects explored by scientists
attending the Nobel Symposium on quantum physics in Sweden
The
Cosmic Code:
The late Rockefeller
University
''I
often dream about falling. Such dreams are commonplace to the ambitious or
those who climb mountains. Lately I dreamed I was clutching at the face of a
rock, but it would not hold. Gravel gave way. I grasped for a shrub, but it
pulled loose, and in cold terror I fell into the abyss. Suddenly I realized
that my fall was relative; there was no bottom and no end. A feeling of
pleasure overcame me. I realized that what I embody, the principle of life,
cannot be destroyed. It is written into the cosmic code, the order of the
universe. As I continued to fall in the dark void, embraced by the vault of the
heavens, I sang to the beauty of the stars and made my peace with the
darkness.'' Dr. Pagels was killed in a climbing accident in 1988.
Quantum Entanglement or the God Effect!
One
of the main scientific goals of the world's largest atom smasher, costing some
9 billion dollars, is to prove the existence of the Higgs boson or God
particle, which makes the universe possible by giving mass to everything
including all of us and the objects we can touch! Quantum Entanglement (QE) or
the God Effect is the working mechanism of the Higgs boson or the God particle,
because it’s so fundamental. Quantum
Entanglement is at the heart of understanding how significant events across the
universe operate at the macro- and micro- level in split-second synchronicity
despite considerable distance between them. Quantum Entanglement suggests that
information is exchanged faster between Quantum Entangled particles than the
speed of light, which was deemed impossible per Einstein's special theory of
relativity proposed in 1905.
Holographic Universe Theory:
Since
travelling faster than the speed of light is tantamount to breaking the time
barrier, this daunting prospect has caused some physicists to try to come up
with elaborate ways to explain away Alain Aspect’s findings. It has also inspired others to offer even
more radical explanations including that of the holographic universe! The implications of a holographic universe
are truly mind boggling… Aspect’s findings imply that objective reality does
not exist, that despite its apparent solidity the universe is at heart a
phantasm, a gigantic and splendidly detailed hologram. To understand why a
number of physicists including David Bohm made this startling assertion, one
must first understand a little about holograms.
Hologram: A hologram is a three-dimensional photograph made with
the aid of a laser. To make a hologram,
the object to be photographed is first bathed in the light of a laser beam.
Then a second laser beam is bounced off the reflected light of the first and
the resulting interference pattern -- the area where the two laser beams
superimpose -- is captured on film. When the film is developed, it looks like a
meaningless swirl of light and dark lines. But as soon as the developed film is
illuminated by another laser beam, a three-dimensional image of the original
object appears! The three-dimensionality of such images is not the only
remarkable characteristic of holograms. If a hologram of a rose is cut in half
and then illuminated by a laser, each half is still found to contain the entire
image of the rose. Indeed, even if the halves are divided again, each snippet
of film is always found to contain a smaller but intact version of the original
image. Unlike normal photographs, every part of a hologram contains all the
information possessed by the whole! The "whole in every part" nature
of a hologram provides us with an entirely new way of understanding
organization and order. For most of its history, Western science has laboured
under the bias that the best way to understand a physical phenomenon, whether a
frog or an atom, is to dissect it and study its respective parts. A hologram
teaches us that some things in the universe may not lend themselves to this
approach. If we try to take apart some thing constructed holographically, we
will not get the pieces of which it is made, we will only get smaller wholes.
Extensions
of the Same Source: This insight suggested to some scientists including David
Bohm another way of understanding Aspect’s discovery. Bohm believed the reason
subatomic particles are able to remain in contact with one another regardless
of the distance separating them is not because they are sending some sort of
mysterious signal back and forth, but because their separateness is an
illusion. Bohm suggested that at some
deeper level of reality such particles are not individual entities, but are
actually extensions of the same fundamental something!
Beyond Cause and Effect: Quantum Entanglement seems to throw out the
whole notion of cause and effect, as we know it! It is possible for a particle
to interact with another particle in such a way that the quantum states of the
two particles form a single entangled state. The definition of an entangled
state is that it is not entirely independent of the other's state. Its state is
dependent on another's state in some way. Given this dependency, it is a
mistake to consider either state in isolation from the other. Rather we should
combine the states and treat the result as a single, entangled state.
Space and Time: When pairs of particles are generated by
the decay of other particles, naturally or through induced collision such as at
CERN or Fermi Labs, these pairs may be termed "entangled", in that
such pairs often necessarily have linked and opposite qualities, ie of spin or
charge. The assumption that measurement in effect "creates" the state
of the measured quality goes back to the arguments of, among others:
Schrödinger and Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen concerning Heisenberg's
uncertainty principle and its relation to observation. Quantum Entanglement
does underline the fact that quantum particles really do only have a range of
probabilities on the values of their properties rather than fixed values. And
while it seems to contradict Einstein’s theory of special relativity, which
says nothing can travel faster than light, it’s increasingly likely that
entanglement challenges our ideas of what space and time really mean!
Quantum Entanglement: A 'Type' of "The
God Connection"!
When
God created the universe and the laws of physics, did He leave a 'connection'
with all particles and forces within it?
It seems there are themes and 'designs' in science that seem to repeat
and recur in nature. Scientists and theologians have long wondered about the
'dualism' in particles and forces in the universe, nature, and morality. For
example, matter and antimatter, positive and negative charges, male, female,
good and evil, etc. When atomic theory became the dominate theory of matter
around the turn of the last century, the model of Neils Bohr, of hard round
particles orbiting the atomic nucleus, was compared to the planetary system of
our sun. The same theme is recurrent in galactic structure and the orbits of stars,
star clusters, and gasses. It seemed that a basic structure was promulgated
from the very smallest objects to the very largest.
We
have since seen that the atom is much more complicated and that the objects
orbiting the nucleus are not 'hard' and definite, but are both particle and
wave in their structure. The nucleus itself is very complex and the once hard
objects that we call neutrons, and protons are actually made up of 'quarks' and
other nebulous subatomic particles.
In religion we have a belief that in order to
communicate with God, a person enters into a state of consciousness that we
call prayer. Through prayer, a spiritual connection is made to God and He hears
our thoughts and we receive assurance that He acknowledges our wishes. Is there
a similar "type" in the physical world for that connection? “It was We who created
man and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer
to him than (his) jugular vein.”(Qur’an;50:16)
The idea in quantum entanglement is that every
particle in a particle-antiparticle pair is in instant communication with the
other particle, regardless of how far apart they are. It is a phenomenon that
was experimentally proven, just recently, by scientists in Geneva
Switzerland
The
size of the particles of this discussion are at the subatomic level, far below
'microscope' level. Some scientists think that at this level, there is a
universal 'connection' that transcends space/time and allows all particles to be 'in contact' with every
other particle in the universe in a way that we have yet to understand. Below
the 'quantum' or Planck level, the definitions of space and time become obscure
and tend to blur. If all particles are
somehow connected below the Planck level, it would seem to say that we all have
a universal connection to each other and perhaps that is the medium through
which prayer is channelled? That much is pure speculation, but if God created
all the physical laws and the universe in such a way that He is never out of
touch both spiritually and physically,
and is omnipresent everywhere at once, it confirms what Christians, Jews &
Muslims have always said about His presence and the ease with which we are in
touch with Him. It means that He knows every thought, every event, and
everything that happens in the universe. It also says that no matter how far
you travel, or how much you transgress His will, He is always near.
Application in Highly Secure Communications:
There
are some real and amazing applications of Quantum Entanglement in our world. It
can be used to produce unbreakable encryption. If we send each half of a set of
entangled pairs to either end of a communications link, then the randomly generated
but linked properties can be used as a key to encrypt information. If anyone
intercepts the information it will break the entanglement, and the
communication can be stopped before the eavesdropper picks up any data. Teleportation, Star Trek style is an other
aspect being explored.
Quantum Pseudo-Telepathy: Telepathy is the transmission of
information from one person to another without using any of our known sensory
channels or physical interaction, it is experienced between individuals, love
one’s at far off distances. The phenomenon of quantum pseudo-telepathy is
mostly used as a powerful and explicit thought experiment of the non-local
characteristics of quantum mechanics. Yet, the effect is real and subject to
experimental verification, as demonstrated by the experimental confirmation of
the violation of the Bell
Attributes of God and Science:
The Attributes, Words and Signs and
Mercies of Allah are manifest in His Creations, and can never be fully set out
in human language, however extended human means may imagined to be. However all
that is mentioned about Allah's attributes, whether briefly or in detail and
affirmatively or negatively, based on Qur'an, and the traditions of Prophet
Muhammad (peace be upon him) are final some are also mentioned in Bible. Allah
has most perfect attributes; Allah can
be called by any name, signifying the attributes of perfection, suitable to
Him. Traditionally in Islamic traditions 99 Names are attributed to Allah, some
are also mentioned in Bible. Some Islamic attributes of God are: The Creator (Al-Khaliq), The Master, The Lord of
Universe (Rab-ul-Ala’min),),
The Owner of All Sovereignty (Malik-al-Mulk),
The Timeless (As-Sabur), The
One, The Unique, Manifestation of Unity (Al-Wahid),
The All Knowing, The Omniscient (Al-`Alim),
The All Seeing (Al-Basir), The
All Aware (Al-Khabir), The
King, The Sovereign (Al-Malik),
The Almighty, The Self Sufficient (Al-Aziz),
The Powerful, The Rightful (Al-Bari'),
The Fashioner of Forms (Al-Musawwir),
The Majestic (Al-Jalil), The
Answerer (Al-Mujib), The Strong
(Al-Qawaie), The Producer,
Originator, and Initiator of All (Al-Mubdi,
Al Badi'), The Magnificent (Al-Majid),
The One, the All Inclusive, The Indivisible (Al-Ahad), The Self Sufficient, The Everlasting (As-Samad), The All Beneficent (Ar-Rahman), The Most Merciful (Ar-Rahim), The Lord of Majesty and
Generosity (Dhu-al-Jalali wa-al-Ikram),
The Incomparable, The Originator (Al-Badi).
Some of His attributes are explained briefly:-
The Creator: He is the Supreme Creator:" He is the Originator of
the heavens and the earth. (Qur’an;6:101). Allah
has no equal because His Attributes are perfect: "There is nothing
whatsoever like unto Him. He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing"
(Qur’an;42:11); "no slumber or sleep seizes Him" (Qur’an;2:255),
because His life is perfect and eternal. Bible also mentions: “Have you not
known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the
ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary, his understanding is
Unsearchable.”(Isaiah;40:28).
Uncreated:
Allah knows, but not as human knows; He has power, but not as human have power.
He is a thing, but unlike other things; by saying "thing," it is
intended merely to affirm His reality. He has neither body nor substance,
neither accidental property nor limit, neither opposite nor like nor similitude.
A human being require some material to make some thing i.e. a carpenter
requires wood, nails tools and other material to make a table. God Most High creates things out of nothing
and He has knowledge of them in pre-eternity, before their creation.
The Cherisher &
Sustainer (Lord) of All the Worlds:
Allah is The Sustainer’ (Rabb) of all the worlds. “Praise be to Allah
the Cherisher and Sustainer (Rabb al- a’lamen) of the
Worlds”(Qur’an;1:2); “Then praise be to Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lords of
the earth, the Lord of the Worlds.”(Qur’an;45:36); “Cast thy burden upon the
LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be
moved.”(Psalms;55:22).
Omnipotent, the Wise: He is Omnipotent: “He is the Supreme Authority over His
servants; and He is the Wise, the Aware.”(Qur’an;6:18 ). Allah is not living
with His creatures on earth, but He is closer to human than their jugular vein: “It was We who created man and
We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him
than (his) jugular vein.”(Qur’an;50:16). It implies that Allah knows more truly
the innermost state of human feeling and consciousness than does their own
self; “Hast thou not seen that Allah knows all that is in the heavens and all
that is in the earth? There is no secret conference of three but He is their
fourth, nor of five but He is their sixth, nor of less than that or more but He
is with them Wheresoever they may be;...”(Qur’an;58:7); “Whither shall I go
from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?”(Psalms;139:7).
Omniscient: Allah possess
absolute & infinite knowledge: “He Alone has the keys of the unseen
treasures, of which no one knows except Him. He knows whatever is in the land
and in the sea; there is not a single leaf that falls without His knowledge,
there is neither a grain in the darkness of the earth nor anything fresh or dry
which has not been recorded in a Clear Book.”(Qur’an;6:59); "Allah alone
has the knowledge of the Hour, sends down rain, and knows what is in the wombs
(a blessing or a curse). No soul knows what it shall earn tomorrow, and no soul
knows in what land it shall die. Surely, Allah is All-knowing, All-aware"
(Qur’an;31:34). The Qur'an points to the rich sources of knowledge in the whole
universe. “..The knowledge thereof is with my Lord in a Record. My Lord never
errs nor forgets”(Qur’an;20:52); “ For a man's ways are before the eyes of the
LORD, and he watches all his paths.”(Proverbs;5:21).
The First and the Last, The Evident and The
Immanent: According to Qur’an: "He is the First
and the Last the Evident and the Immanent: and He has full knowledge of all
things. "(Qur’an;57:3); “They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea,
all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them,
and they shall be changed: But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no
end.”(Psalms;102:26-27). God is Evident in so far as there is ample evidence of
His existence and providence all around the universe. On the other hand, God is
Hidden in so far as human intellect cannot grasp His essence nor can He be seen
in the present world. “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is
and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”(RSV;Revelation;1:8). The Bible
also mentions, God as Invisible (Job;23:8-9) and Un-searchable (Job;11:7; 37:23;Psalms; 145:3; Isaiah;
40:28).
God is Not Similar to His
Creatures: “..there is none like unto
Him”(Qur’an;112:4); “..there is none like me in all the earth.”(Exodus;9:14).
The Merciful: The Mercy of Allah is the one of the grandest themes of the Qur’an. To
contemplate these boundless gifts of God. “When those who believe in Our
revelations come to you, say: "Peace be upon you. Your Lord has decreed
mercy upon Himself. If anyone among you commits evil because of ignorance and
thereafter repents and mends his ways; you will find Allah Forgiving,
Merciful.”(Qur’an;6:54 & 85:14). God’s attribute of Mercy is also
highlighted in Bible at Exodus;34:6-7 and many other places: “The earth, O
LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.”(Psalms;119:64); “Therefore
turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and wait on thy God
continually.”(Hosea;12:6); “For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with
great mercies will I gather thee.”(Isaiah;54:7); “But God, who is rich in
mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,”(Ephesians;2:4).
Justice: He helps all with
justices and fairness: “The fact is that Allah is your Protector and He is the
best of all helpers.”(Qur’an;3:150); “Rest assured that Allah does not wrong
anyone even by an atom's weight. If someone does a good deed He increases it
many fold and also gives an extra great reward on His own.”(Qur’an;4:40). He is
Sustainer of humanity whether believers or non believers and all other
creatures: “We bestowed on all - these
as well those - out of the bounties of your Lord; the bounties of your
Sustainer are not confined.”(Qur’an;17:20). He answers the prayers: "Call
on Me; I will answer your (Prayer)...!"(Qur’an;40.60). It is mentioned in
Bible: “Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in
power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not
afflict.”(Job;37:23). On the Day of Judgment He will judge among His people. He
is the Doer of what He wills. True knowledge based on clear proof and
indisputable evidence acquired by experience or experiment or by both.
He Does What He Wills: To Him belongs the
Kingdom of the Heavens and the Earth, He does what ever He Wills:“ Whenever He
intends a thing, He needs only to say: "Be," and it
is.”(Qur’an;36:82); "There is nothing whatever like unto Him, He is the
All-hearing, the All-seeing. To Him belongs the keys of the Heavens and the
Earth. He enlarges and restricts provisions to whom He wills. Surely He has
knowledge of everything" (Qur’an;42:11-12); "He creates what He
pleases. He gives, to whom He wills, females, and He gives, to whom He wills,
males, or He couples them, males and females; and He makes whom He wills
barren. Surely, He is the Knowing, the Powerful"(Qur’an;42:49-50). Despite
being All Powerful, God does not wrong the mankind: “Lo! Allah wrongs not
mankind in aught; but mankind wrong themselves.”(Qur’an;10:44).
Subtle, Unfathomable, The
All Aware: Allah is Latif, fine, subtle, so fine and subtle as to be
invisible to the physical eye; so fine as to be imperceptible to the senses;
figuratively, so pure as to be above the mental or spiritual vision of ordinary
men but at the same time He is aware of all things. It is beyond the capability of human eye to see God In this world, Allah
says: “Vision cannot perceive Him, but He perceives all vision. He is
the Subtle, (Latif, Incomprehensible), the All-aware"
(Qur’an;6:103). Bible also confirms that God can not bee seen (John;1:18,
1Timothy;6:16, Exodus;33:20). God Most High will be seen in the Hereafter,
visible to the believers in Paradise with
their corporeal vision as mentioned in Qur’an: "Upon that day (Day of
Judgment) some faces shall be radiant, gazing upon their
Lord"(Qur’an;75:22-23). “Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and
backward, but I cannot perceive him; on the left hand I seek him, but I cannot
behold him; I turn to the right hand, but I cannot see him.”(Job;23:8-9).
Belief
in God, His names, and His attributes instils in the individual the love and
glorification of God that result in obeying God’s instructions and avoiding His
prohibitions. These are the means of achieving ultimate happiness in this life
and the hereafter for both the individual and the society: "Whoever, male
or female, does righteous deed, while believing, We shall
assuredly grant him a goodly life, and We shall reward them according to
the best of their deeds" (Qur’an;16:97).
Scientific proofs of God through Four
Common Attributes:
While
keeping metaphysics and spirituality aside, the four primary physical attributes
are being considered here that may help to describe God to any believer or
disbeliever in scientific terms: 1)Eternal, independent of time, 2)Omnipresent,
found everywhere, 3)Omnipotent, all powerful and 4)Omniscient, all knowing. If
these primary attributes are found in one Power and are proved scientifically
then that power is God.
- Eternal: Heisenberg came to the conclusion that
quantum events cannot be predicted. All freed electrons behave as if they
are being influenced by an outside variable or force, Uncertainty
Principle. In Signal Travels Farther & Faster than light by Malcolm
W.Browne, a force was found connecting two freed electrons and proved to
be Eternal, was present within our time yet was not involved with the flow
of our time. This Eternal force connects to all freed electrons. Every
particle that releases energy connects to this Eternal force.
- Omnipresent:
Everything beyond our solar system that is visible is made of stars, which
all release freed electrons, light, radiation etc. This shows that this
force to also be Omnipresent everywhere in the universe.
- Omnipotent:
In experiments by Russian scientists they found at that laser photons knew
when a DNA molecule was added in to the vacuum. [http://quantumbalancing.com/news/russian_dna.htm] The photons/electrons collected
around the DNA stand and began to change the order of the DNA, changing it
to what is desired. After the DNA was removed and the laser turned off the
excess photons remained in the position resembling the DNA for over 22
minutes. This simply proves that this force to be Omnipotent, all
powerful. It is common observation that we see everything to be so
complex, complex environments, complex galaxies and the complexity of
nature and life itself. If this force created everything from nothing, we
know that energy cannot be created, shows this force to be Omnipotent.
Visual evidence is seen in the distance of stars and galaxies across the
universe.
According
to the first law of thermodynamics energy cannot be created or destroyed. Then
where did all the energy in this universe come from? Does it have something to
do with this same force being timeless? The force was able to use freed
electrons to manipulate DNA, showing what this force can do on a tiny scale.
What can this force do to freed electrons on a large scale? Is the universe
expanding form dark matter or this Eternal Force?
Since
the universe is full of freed electrons, one can only imagine what this force
could do if it used to work as one single entity. Possibly how the whole
universe was created in six eons.
This
data implies that all freed electrons in combination or as a collective to be:
Omnipotent, all powerful. This is self evident from the size and distance of
galaxies that can be seen across this universe.
- Omniscient: In the Double Slit experiment
mentioned earlier, light a freed electron showed that it was observant of
its surroundings. It knew when it was being watched and knew when it was
not. It showed simple means of intelligence by reacting to visual stimuli.
The first bit of evidence that showed this force to be, Omniscient. In the
STI [Self thinking Interface] Device created by Physicst Roger R.Vogelsan
in the early 70’ proved that there is ultimate knowledge in the FORCE which
connects to all freed electrons. This FORCE knows everything its
Omniscient.
Hence
science proves that God is real and His existence is scientifically proved,
let’s look at the summary:
1)
God is
Eternal: The twin-photon experiment by Dr.Nicholas Gisin verified by later
experiments found photons, freed electrons to be connected to this Force.
Nothing can go faster that light except this one Force.
2)
God is
Omnipresent: This force connects to all freed electrons in our universe. Freed
electrons are created when matter is converted in to energy. This force is
everywhere even beyond our universe. This force is found to be everywhere in
our universe’s past, present & future which we call time as time does not
exist to this force.
3)
God is
Omnipotent: All powerful. We observe galaxies at the furthest reaches of the
universe. Not hot gas which first theorised but old galaxies. How can the light
now be reaching us and show old galaxies at the furthest extents of the
universe? If light has a speed limit, then how did distant galaxies form long
before the universe was said to have begun? This force again shows that it is
Omnipotent and Timeless.
4)
God is
Omniscient: All knowing. Physicst Roger R.Vogelsang found with his STI Device
that not only could this force read thoughts and knew all things in the past
and future but have knowledge of every thing past, present and future.
God
is Eternal, Omnipresent, Omnipotent and Omniscient, science proves it!
Proof of Existence of God
through More Scientific Facts in Qur’an:
History
records many miracles performed through Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
but Allah in His Divine wisdom provided Qur’an, the ever living sign (miracle)
through Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), which any one can read by
himself, to discover that Qur’an is the true word of Allah, the last book of
guidance, light and wisdom for the humanity till eternity. Islam encourages
reasoning, discussions and dialogue. The Qur’an provides reason and rationale
for the purpose, creation and existence of universe. It is the living sign of
God and truthfulness of His last messenger, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon
him). Allah says: “O mankind! Verily there hath come to you a convincing proof
(Qur’an) from your Lord: for We have sent unto you a light (that is) manifest.
Then those who believe in Allah and hold fast to Him soon will He admit them to
Mercy and Grace from Him and guide them to Himself by a straight
Way.”(Qur’an;4:174-175). The Qur’an contains more than six thousand ayaats (‘Signs’), each verse (ayah), of
Qur’an is a sign from the Lord, which speaks of the greatness of its
originator. It is a historical fact that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
was ‘Ummi’ i.e. unlettered (illiterate) (Qur’an;7:157). Revelation of Qur’an in
Arabic, unmatched in its eloquence and beauty, through the mouth of un-learned
(Isaiah;29:12) prophet is miraculous. The prophesy of Prophet Muhammad (peace
be upon him) and Qur’an (word of God, i.e. ‘words in his mouth’) is mentioned
in Bible at Deuteronomy;
18:18,19. The universal challenge of Qur’an to produce even one
ayah (verse) like Qur’an (Qur’an;2:23) is yet to be answered. This is the only
scripture in the world which is available to the humanity in its original
revealed form and will continue to be as such because Allah has taken
responsibility to guard it (Qur’an;15:9) . It is the only scripture which is
memorized by thousands of Muslims of all ages, nationalities, categories and
professions (doctors, engineers, scientists, clerics and common people) the
world over from last fourteen centuries, hence is transferred from generation
to generation accurately. It is the most recited book in the world.
Qur’an
is not a book of ‘science’, but a
book of ‘signs’ (ayaats), there are more than thousand verses
of Qur’an referring to various subjects of science, such as astronomy, physics,
geography, geology, oceanology, biology, botany, zoology, medicine, physiology,
embryology as well as general science, mostly un known to humanity at the time
of its revelation, fourteen centuries ago. Some verses related with universe
are mentioned here:
“Soon
shall We show them Our signs in
the universe and in their own selves, until it becomes clear to
them that this Qur'an is indeed the truth.
Is it not enough that your Lord is a witness over everything?”(Qur’an;41:53)
“Do
not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as
one unit of Creation) before We clove them asunder? (Big Bang) We made from
water every living thing. Will they not then believe?”(Qur’an;21:30)
“Moreover
He Comprehended in His design the sky and it had been (as) smoke: He said to it
and to the earth: "Come ye together willingly or unwillingly. "They
said: "We do come (together) in willing obedience."(Qur’an;41:11)
“Who
hath created and further given order and proportion” (Qur’an;87:2).
“And
it is We Who have constructed the heaven with might, and verily, it is We Who
are steadily expanding it”. (Qur'an, 51:47)
“That
Day We will fold up heaven like folding up the pages of a book. As We
originated the first creation so We will regenerate it. It is a promise binding
on Us. That is what We will do.” (Qur'an, 21:104)
“They
do not measure Allah with His true measure. The whole earth will be a mere
handful for Him on the Day of Rising the heavens folded up in His right hand.
Glory be to Him! He is exalted above the partners they ascribe!” (Qur'an,
39:67)
“He
Who created the seven heavens in layers. You will not find any discrepancy in
the creation of the All-Merciful. Look again-do you see any gaps? Then look again
and again. Your sight will return to you dazzled and exhausted!” (Qur'an,
67:3-4)
“Do
you not see how He created seven heavens in layers, and placed the moon as a
light in them and made the sun a blazing lamp?” (Qur'an, 71:15-16)
“No!
I swear by the planets-that recede, that ride their course [and] hide
themselves.” (Qur'an, 81: 15-16)
“Your
Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six eons and then
settled Himself firmly on the Throne...” (Qur'an, 7:54). When a six-eons period
of time is calculated according to the relativity of time, it equates to six
trillion days. That is because universal time flows a million million times
faster than time on Earth. Calculated in terms of years, 6 trillion days
equates to approximately 16.427 billion years. This is within the estimated
range for the age of the universe.
Black
Holes: “And I swear by the stars' positions-and that is a mighty oath if you
only knew”. (Qur'an, 56:75-76), “When the stars are extinguished”, (Qur'an,
77:8), “[I swear] by Heaven and the Tariq! And what will convey to you what the
Tariq is? The Star Piercing [the darkness]!” (Qur'an, 86:1-3)
The
Skies with 'Woven' Orbits: "By heaven furnished with paths;" (Quran;
51:7)
“Allah
is He Who raised up the heavens without any support – you can see that – and
then established Himself firmly on the Throne. He made the Sun and Moon
subservient, each running for a specified term. He directs the whole affair. He
makes the Signs clear so that hopefully you will be certain about the meeting
with your Lord”. (Quran; 13:2)
A
Red Rose in The Sky: The Rosette Nebula: When the Heaven shall be cleft
asunder, and become rose red, like stained leather. (Quran; 55:37)
The
Sun Will Expire after Some Time: And the sun runs to a fixed resting place.
That is the decree of the Almighty, the All-Knowing. (Quran; 36:38)
“It
is We Who have created you. Why, then, do you not accept the truth? Have you
ever considered that [seed] which you emit? Is it you who create it? Or are We
the Creator?” (Qur'an, 56:57-59)
The
complex process of pregnancy from conception till child birth, discovered
recently is accurately narrated in Qur’an;23:13-14.
It
is found that the Qur’anic information on science does not conflict with the
established scientific facts. It may go against certain scientific hypothesis
or theories, which are not based on facts as many a times, the science retracts
its position.
The
scientific facts mentioned in Qur’an have been discovered during last few
centuries. But science has not advanced to a level where it can confirm every
statement of the Qur’an referring to scientific information. According to
Dr.Zakir Naik; suppose 80% of all that is mentioned in the Qur’an has been
proved 100% correct, while for the remaining 20%, science makes no categorical statement,
since it has not advanced to a level, where it can either prove or disprove
these statements. With the limited knowledge through science available today,
one cannot say for sure whether even a single percentage or a single verse of
the Qur’an from this 20% portion is wrong. Thus when 80% of the Qur’an is 100%
correct and the remaining 20% is not disproved, logic says that even the 20%
portion is correct. [The details of scientific facts mentioned in Qur’an have
been deliberated upon in the book ‘Qur’an and Science’ by Dr.Zakir Naik &
"The Bible, The Qur'an and Science" by Dr. Maurice Bucaille, a French
doctor]. How an unlettered person brought up among the most backward desert
Arabs, away from the centres of civilization and knowledge, could accurately
provide the scientific information mostly discovered recently? It is God, the
Creator alone Who could provide so accurate scientific information.
Consequently as the scientific information mentioned in Qur’an is true then, by
inference the other metaphysical information mentioned in Qur’an
(correspondingly also in Bible) like; existence of God, angles, eschatology
(death, judgement, heaven, hell, and the final destiny of the soul and of
humankind) must also be true. Humanity has much more to learn from Qur’an if
they ponder over it (Qur’an;38:29).
Allah says: “This Book (Al-Qur'an) which We have sent down to you
(O Muhammad) is highly blessed, so that they may ponder upon its verses and the
men of understanding may learn a lesson from it.”(Qur’an;4:82).
It’s
amazing; there is no doubt that Qur'an is a living miracle manifesting
existence of The One Creator-Allah.
Conclusion:
Science
is beginning to see the entire universe as a holographically interlinked
network of energy and information.
"Science
is not the enemy of humanity but one of the deepest expressions of the human
desire to realize that vision of infinite knowledge," "Our capacity
for fulfilment can come only through faith and feelings. But our capacity for
survival must come from reason and knowledge." Science, he warned, is not
"as resilient as commerce, religion, or politics. It needs careful
nurturing." If humankind ultimately abandons science, it would be "an
error that might cost us our existence." [Pagels]
As
Einstein said, "Raffiniert ist der
Herrgott, aber boshaft ist er nicht!" or "The Lord is subtle, but
he is not malicious!" And as the
mystic Maulana Rumi wrote around 800 years ago, "If you could get rid of
yourself just once, the secret of secrets would open to you. The face of the
unknown, hidden beyond the universe would appear on the mirror of your
perception!"
Allah
says in Quran: “Soon shall We show them Our signs in the universe and in their own
selves, until it becomes clear to them that this Qur'an is indeed the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord
is a witness over everything?”(Qur’an;41:53); “We did not create heaven and
earth and everything between them to no purpose. That is the opinion of those
who disbelieve…” (Qur’an; 38: 27), “Verily in the heavens and the earth are
Signs for those who believe. (Qur’an; 45:3). “Let there be no compulsion in
religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects evil and believes
in God hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And God
hears and knows all things.” (Qur’an; 2:255).

See the Unified
Field theory and Universal Consciousness. The discovery of the 5th Generation
computer by Vogelsang in 1982 was evidence to this single intelligent all
knowing consciousness. The universe is alive, self aware. All things are a
portion of this consciousness which gives life to the universe. The Great
Omniscient Designer(GOD). Designer because this consciousness is self aware.
