sky – a protective covering
7:37:55 2023-03-27 1287

Scientists did not know that the sky was a protected ceiling until the 20th century.

Allah says in the Quran, “And We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away.” [21: 32]

The sky is not only beautiful to look at, but it also plays an important role in our survival. The Sun radiates energy in different wavelengths – the shorter the wavelength, the greater the potential harm. Some of this energy, however, is required for crucial functions such as photosynthesis in the plants and production of Vitamin D in human beings.

Allah designed a mechanism that ensures only harmless rays reached the Earth. This mechanism is what we know as the ‘ozone layer’. The scientists discovered this layer in the year 1913.

That is not all. The atmosphere around us maintains a certain temperature suitable for our living. In absence of this, the temperature would drop down to -270°C and we would freeze to death.

The sky is our protective covering which prevents the celestial bodies from falling on us. Imagine if there was no sky and the stars and the sun were not commanded by Allah) to stay at their places, what would have happened? Things would have been falling over our heads and everyday life would have become problematic.
