Surah 41, Ayah 39 "And among His Signs in this: thou seest the earth barren and
desolate; but when We send down rain to it, it is stirred to life (oscillates) and
yields increase. Truly, He Who gives life to the (dead) earth can surely give life
".to (men) who are dead. For He has power over all things
The existing translation refers to the Arabic word "oscillate" as "it is
stirred" which does not reflect the actual Arabic word. A possible explanation
of the above phenomenon is that when rain drops on the dead ground, it
oscillates and grows. If there are seeds in the ground, rain causes them to
grow or germinate. The exact mechanism of the effect of rain on germination
may not be fully understood. However, this may be left to specialists in the
.field of botany to examine from the point of view of vibration
Regardless of discovering the exact mechanism of the above
phenomenon, the above Ayaat clearly describe a case of vibration.
Understanding this phenomenon of vibration is undoubtedly a knowledge that
was not available in the seventh century, and may not be fully understood in
our present time. No one can claim that Muhammad was a master dynamist
and knew about vibration. Where did he get this information? It is from the
.Master and Only Creator of vibration
On the other hand, we read in the Quran in many Ayaat, the Creation
process in six days without any analogy to the earthly days. To understand
what the Quran means by a day, one should put all the verses in which the
.word "day" is mentioned and then attempt to extract a common meaning

Surah 32, Ayah 5 "He directs the affairs from heavens to the
earth; then it ascends unto Him on a day, the measure of
"which is (as) a thousand years of your reckoning

Surah 70, Ayah 4 "The angels and the Spirit (Gabriel) ascend
unto Him in a day, the measure whereof is (as) fifty
"thousand years
How could the immense mystery of time be enforced in our minds
better than that? A day in the standard of Allah may be one day, or 1,000
years, or 50,000 years, depending on the event, relative to the human
!standard of time
How were the different events in the Quran described in different time
frames? Who told Muhammad that time has a relativistic property? It is the
.Creator of time itself
