God Spread the Earth Out, Made the Heaven as a Ceiling, and Certainly Created the Heavens and the Earth in Six Days

But When Our Verses are Recited to them, they Say, "This is an Ancient Falsehood," but Indeed, the Promise of God is Truth, so do Not be Deceived by the Worldly Life

30:60, Qur'an
So be patient. Indeed, the promise of God is truth. And do not let those who are not certain [in faith] make light of you -

15:26, Qur'an
[For] We certainly created man out of clay from an altered black mud.

50:38, Qur'an
And We certainly created the heavens and earth and what is between them in six days, and no weariness touched Us.

15:19, Qur'an
And the earth - We have spread it, and cast firmly set [mountains] therein, and caused [something] of every well-balanced thing to grow therein.

21:32, Qur'an
And We made the heaven a protected ceiling, but they are turning away from its signs -

8:31, Qur'an
[For] when Our verses are recited to them, they say, "We have certainly heard. If we willed, we could say [something] like this. This is nothing but legends of the former [peoples]."

45:24, Qur'an
And they say, "There is nothing except our worldly life; we die and live, and nothing destroys us except time." And they have no knowledge of that; they are only assuming -

10:36, Qur'an
[For] most of them do not follow [anything] except assumption. Indeed, assumption does not avail against the truth at all. Indeed, God is Knowing of what they do -

46:11, Qur'an
[For] those who disbelieve say of those who believe, "If it had [truly] been good, they would not have preceded us to it." And when they are not guided by it, they will say, "This is an ancient falsehood."

35:5, Qur'an
[But] indeed, the promise of God is truth, O mankind, so do not let the worldly life delude you and do not be deceived by the Deceiver about God.

For they had denied the truth when it came to them, but the news of what they used to ridicule is going to reach them.


O Jinn and Mankind, If you are Able to Pass Beyond the Regions of the Heavens, then Pass - You will Not Pass

For a Flame will be Sent upon you and you will Not Defend yourselves; and so the Jinn Became Certain that they will Never Escape by Flight, for God Placed Strongholds within the Heaven

55:33, Qur'an
O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass.  You will not pass except by authority [from God] -

38:10 - 11, Qur'an

15:16 - 17, Qur'an
[For] We have placed strongholds within the heaven and have beautified it for the observers.
And We have protected it from every expelled devil -

[So that] they may not listen to the exalted assembly [of angels] and are pelted from every side,
repelled; and there is a constant punishment for them, except one who snatches [some words] by theft, but they are pursued by a burning flame, piercing [in brightness].


Warn of the Day of Judgement, When God will Remove the Mountains, and you will See the Earth a Flat Plain

You will Not See Any Curve Therein, and those who Mocked will be Enveloped by what they used to Ridicule

and the earth and the mountains are lifted and leveled [flat] with one blow - then on that Day, the Event will occur -

It will bring down [some] and raise up [others]. When the earth is shaken with convulsion and the mountains are broken down, crumbling, and become dispersing dust.

And when it is said to them, "What has your Lord sent down?" They say, "Legends of the former [peoples]."

No! When the earth has been leveled [flat] - pounded and crushed -

[For] messengers were already ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.


The Stars will Fall from Heaven to the Earth on the Day of Judgement, When the Heaven will Shake

For We have Adorned the Heaven with Stars and as Protection Against Every Devil, but they Denied and Followed their Inclinations, and so they will be Enveloped by what they used to Ridicule

 And information has already come to them in which there is deterrence - extensive wisdom - but warning does not avail [them] -

[For] indeed, We have adorned the heaven of this world with an adornment of stars
and as protection against every rebellious devil.

37:69 - 72, Qur'an

 So they hastened [to follow] in their footsteps.  And most of the former [peoples] had already strayed before them, and We had already sent warners among them.

[But] when their messengers came to them with clear proofs, they [merely] rejoiced in what they had of knowledge, but they were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.


The Heavens will be Rolled Together as a Scroll on the Day of Resurrection

For We Made the Heaven a Protected Ceiling, but they are Turning Away from its Signs, so the News of what they used to Ridicule is Going to Reach them

Hebrews 1:10 - 12, New Testament
[For] You [alone], Lord, have laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning; and the heavens are the works of Your hands,

[For] We made the heaven a protected ceiling, but they are turning away from its signs -
