The Qur’an linked between mountains and the water we drink; nowadays scientists have discovered a link between both of them.
In the Fourteenth century man was looked at the clouds and rains as a strange phenomena which was made by gods, therefore they used to pray to the gods asking for rains, in Europe people were looking to the rains as a given livelihood by gods.
However, the advent of Islam corrected many ideas and showed people the right way and guided them far from the wrong ideas, as Islam talked about rains as a scientific phenomenon, as God who is the creator of the universe and everything and He is who put the rules of descending the rains.
He confirmed in two holy verses on the existence of precise rules that control this phenomenon.
He says đ And we sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure, and we gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, we are Able to take it away.)(SĂ»rat Al-MuâminĂ»n- verse 18.
Also in the Qoran God says: âAnd who sends down water (rain) from the sky in due measure, then revives a dead land therewith, and even so you will be brought forth (form the graves).(SĂ»rat AZ-Zukhruf- verse 11).
It means that the Qur’an is the first book to put a scientific base for the phenomenon of descending the rains, and to keep myths and superstitions away from minds of people.
But there is an important thing that scientists had discovered- the role of mountains in formation of clouds and rains.
Prophet Mohamed wasnât living in such environment, but he lived in a desert environment where no human is able to predict with any kind of relationships between mountains and water of the rain, this is an evidence that the Qurâan is an inspiration from God to prophet Mohamed.
When the wind drives the ascending Molecules of water from the seas, the mountains contribute in the ascending operation to raise it up exactly like the ice skating race as the skater tries to reach the top of the mountain and when he reaches it in a high speed he jumps in the air so that his speed increases to reach high distance, without the mountain he wouldn’t be able to rise in the air.
Also, there is another relation between the height of the mountain and the amount of the descended water, the higher the mountain the more amount of water is descended and also purer and fresh.
Therefore the Qurâan linked between the high mountains and the freshness of water.
As a result we can see that all verses of the Qur’an are compact with no contradiction and are compatible with the new science, isnât it an evidence that the Qur’an is a book which was descended from God?
