Big Bang Theory in the Quran.Islam is a complete code of life that teaches every human being how to live life in the right and meaningful way. Islam contains all the methods through which a person can lead a successful life. Moreover, the Quran contains knowledge of everything about which modern-day man feels confused and seeks answers.
The Quran is not just a divine book, but it holds immense relevance for every human being of the present age. It contains answers to every question that arises in the minds of today’s people. For example, the Quran discusses what human psychology is, the structure of the human body, how this world came into being, how Allah created man, and above all, Allah has clearly described all the stages of the universe’s formation.
This article will explore those descriptions and examine in detail where and how the Big Bang Theory, which is a modern scientific explanation, is mentioned in the Quran. We will see where references to it are found in the Quran, which were revealed 1400 years ago, and how today’s scientific research aligns with what was revealed in the Quran centuries ago.
Friends, how did our universe come into being? Where did humans come from? What were the elements that played a role in the formation of this universe? These are questions that arise in every human’s mind. People wonder how they came into existence on this earth. Moreover, how was the earth, which we see today, created? Today’s science does provide answers to these questions, but those answers were already given in the Quran 1400 years ago. Let’s take a detailed look at those answers.

What is the Big Bang Theory?
Friends, first let’s talk about what the Big Bang is. The Big Bang is a theory presented by science, which states that the entire universe was initially like a single point, all joined together. Gradually, this point exploded, and the whole universe spread out. This process occurred approximately 13.8 billion years ago, according to science. Since then, the universe has been expanding continuously. Its galaxies are constantly moving apart and getting farther from each other day by day.
And friends, you’ll be surprised to learn that this is mentioned in the Holy Quran.
Allah says in Surah Al-Anbiya, Ayah 30:
“Do not those who disbelieve see that the heavens and the earth were joined together, then We split them apart?”
Allahu Akbar! Friends, this is such a powerful verse that describes the modern-day Big Bang Theory, which science discovered using advanced instruments. But the Quran conveyed this truth to humanity 1400 years ago without any modern technology. This is a great miracle of Allah and proves His claim that the Quran contains knowledge for all worlds—provided one has eyes to see and ears to hear.
🌌 Expansion of the Universe – In Light of the Quran (Surah Adh-Dhariyat – Ayah 47):
Another claim made by science is that the universe has been expanding ever since its creation. Its galaxies are expanding and moving farther apart. You’ll be amazed to know that this too is mentioned in the Quran.
Allah says in Surah Adh-Dhariyat, Ayah 47:
“And the heaven, We constructed it with strength, and indeed, We are [still] expanding it.”
Allahu Akbar! This verse of the Quran clearly states that the universe is continuously expanding, created by Allah, and this perfectly matches modern scientific observation. What science tells us today using advanced instruments, Allah had already informed us of 1400 years ago.

🧠 Scientific Accuracy or Mere Coincidence?
Here, two questions arise: Is all of this merely a coincidence, or was the Quran truly revealed by Allah for the guidance of mankind?
Friends, let us tell you that any knowledgeable person who studies the Quran thoroughly will see that such “coincidences” don’t happen again and again. Every single verse of the Quran is proving to be in line with modern science. What was revealed in the Quran 1400 years ago is being confirmed today through scientific experimentation. There are many things that the Quran informed humanity about centuries ago that are only now being proven—one of which is the Big Bang Theory.
If anyone has doubts, they should read the Quran carefully and look into the verses where science and the Quran align. If the person reads the Quran with the intention of seeking the truth and identifying the verses that were revealed 1400 years ago but are only now being supported by modern science, they will find proper guidance. And if that person is honest, they will proclaim this truth to the whole world.

📚 Opinions of Scholars and Scientists:
Friends, let us now inform you what scholars and scientists say about this—that modern science is discovering today what the Quran had already mentioned 1400 years ago.
You’ll be glad to know that scholars and scientists are on the same page. Among the famous ones:
Dr. Maurice Bucaille (French scientist) said:
“There is not a single scientific fact in the Quran that contradicts modern science.”
This means that every scientific event presented in the Quran aligns with scientific observation. There is not a single example where the Quran’s explanation differs from that of science.
Renowned Muslim scholar Zakir Naik said:
“The Quran is not a book of science, but it does not contradict science either.”
This proves that if anyone has doubts, they should read the Quran. Even if they do not read it for spiritual reward, non-Muslims should read it once for the sake of knowledge. They should compare its verses with the observations of the modern scientific era—and they will realize that both are on the same page.
So, friends, science and the Quran clearly demonstrate that they are aligned. No claim of the Quran contradicts science, and all scientific observations agree with the Quran. This proves that 1400 years ago, verses had already been revealed for human guidance. The only thing that remained was for us to understand them, which we were unable to do before. But now, after 1400 years, through modern scientific tools, we are able to understand their meanings.
