hi have you ever wondered how this
00:04
universe that we all call home came to
00:06
be lots of theories about the origins of
00:08
our universe have come and gone until
00:10
one theory in particular came along that
00:12
physicists and cosmologists could agree
00:14
on they agreed on it of course because
00:17
there is scientific evidence to support
00:18
it and you may have heard of it it's
00:20
called the Big Bang Theory the founders
00:24
of this theory are two scientists from
00:25
the 1920s
00:26
George Sheila made an Alexander
00:28
Friedmann they both used Einstein's
00:30
theory of relativity to prove that the
00:33
universe is in a constant state of
00:34
expansion then in 1929 the American
00:37
astronomer Edwin Hubble confirmed this
00:40
theory again after observing evidence
00:42
that virtually all clusters of galaxies
00:44
appear to be moving away from all other
00:46
clusters which also indicates that the
00:48
entire universe is expanding physicists
00:52
agree that the theory is sound because
00:54
the universe is in fact still expanding
00:56
even now if you open the Quran and read
00:59
through all the verses that speak about
01:01
the origin of the universe you will find
01:03
that it confirms what physicists have
01:05
been saying about the same topic for
01:08
example in chapter 51 verse 47 it says
01:11
and it is we God who have built the
01:14
heaven with our creative power and
01:16
verily it is we God who is steadily
01:19
expanding it what we know about the
01:22
universe is that space was created first
01:24
and gave birth to particles galaxies
01:26
stars the earth and you and me in
01:29
several places the Quran also addresses
01:31
the order in which various things were
01:33
created in a manner consistent with what
01:35
science has discovered for example in
01:37
chapter 18 verse 51 it says I God did
01:41
not make them witness to the creation of
01:43
the heavens and the earth or to the
01:44
creation of themselves the universe
01:47
expanded from very high density and
01:49
exploded in gravitational waves the same
01:52
gravitational waves from those colliding
01:54
black holes in space that pass through
01:56
the earth causing the universe to
01:58
stretch and expand over and over again
02:01
in chapter 41 of the Quran verse 10 it
02:04
says in four days he made in the earth
02:07
four anchors from
02:08
high above it and put Baraka in it and
02:10
equally measured out sustenance of its
02:13
dwellers for those who ask let's break
02:16
down the meaning of this first when God
02:18
says he made in the earth what anchors
02:20
from above it he's referring to the
02:22
gravitational waves that are coming back
02:23
from those colliding black holes in
02:25
space that act as gravitational anchors
02:28
to anchor the earth and anchor things to
02:30
the earth then God says he put barakah
02:33
in it America is a word that people
02:35
commonly use for blessings but it
02:37
actually has a deeper meaning it means
02:39
to grow an increase in volume above and
02:42
beyond expectations emphasizing that the
02:44
earth started out small but constantly
02:47
grew larger and larger a strange type of
02:50
matter caused the expansion of the
02:52
universe in its early stages this matter
02:55
behaved very differently for the matter
02:56
the wave familiar with today because
02:58
instead of attracting other matter it
03:00
repels it this has led physicists to
03:03
call it antimatter sounds to me like
03:05
antisocial matter antimatter actually
03:08
disobeys energy and momentum
03:10
conservation it disobeys symmetric
03:12
charge conjugation and parity and it
03:15
disobeys our current one-directional
03:16
time arrow and disobeys causality
03:19
because the early universe was filled
03:22
with this type of self repelling
03:23
disobedient matter everything would be
03:25
pushing against everything else and that
03:28
would account for the sudden explosion
03:29
that gave birth to the universe matter
03:31
and antimatter particles are always
03:33
produced in pairs and if they come in
03:36
contact they annihilate one another
03:38
leaving behind pure energy so why do we
03:41
still see matter today as far as
03:44
physicists can tell it's only because in
03:46
the end there was one extra matter
03:47
particle for every billion matter
03:49
antimatter pairs after that the first
03:52
stars began to form they formed from the
03:55
dense gas of the young universe which
03:57
came about when a cloud increased in
03:59
density and then collapsed due to the
04:01
action of the gravitational pull of
04:03
gravity the gravitational pull of
04:05
gravity managed to anchor more and more
04:07
matter from the collapse cloud resulting
04:10
in the densest gas clumping and
04:11
anchoring together which eventually led
04:13
to the formation of stars and even
04:16
galaxies
04:17
the formation of stars then paved the
04:20
way for the formation of everything else
04:21
in our universe
04:22
you see when a massive star with a mass
04:24
several times that of the Sun reaches
04:27
the end of its life it compresses and
04:29
explodes as a supernova and it appears
04:32
that exploding stars or supernovae are
04:34
extremely efficient at producing the
04:37
dust or first solid particles that later
04:40
forms earth-like planets rocks and
04:42
people verse 11 of that same chapter in
04:46
the Quran addresses these points when it
04:48
says then he directed himself to the
04:50
heaven while it was smoke and said to
04:52
the heavens and the earth come into
04:54
being willing to obey or disobey they
04:57
both said we are willing to obey from
05:00
this first we can derive many things
05:02
firstly that space was created before
05:04
earth as God says he created the earth
05:06
while heaven was a smoke when God says
05:09
while it was smoke about the heavens
05:11
it's confirming scientific belief that
05:13
the smoke resulting from the exploding
05:15
stars or supernovae existed in space for
05:18
a long time before forming the rocky
05:20
embryo of the earth so essentially the
05:23
earth was a giant lump of this cosmic
05:25
dust anchored by gravity but constantly
05:28
grew larger and larger once it became
05:30
large enough gravity caused the earth to
05:31
become rounded forming what is called a
05:34
rocky embryo and after a hundred million
05:37
years of this rocky embryo growing voila
05:39
we have planet Earth the Quran even
05:42
alludes to the matter and antimatter
05:44
that existed in the universe in this
05:46
verse when it says willing to obey or
05:48
disobey and then concludes by telling us
05:50
that it is matter nor antimatter that
05:52
managed to survive and still exists to
05:54
this day when it says they said we are
05:56
willing to obey when astrophysicists
05:59
joke they say supernovae have bad habits
06:02
because they belch out huge quantities
06:04
of smoke known as cosmic dust dr.
06:07
Loretta Don of Cardiff University
06:09
describes cosmic dust by saying cosmic
06:12
dust consists of tiny particles of solid
06:14
material floating around in the space
06:16
between stars it's not the same as house
06:19
dust but more akin to say
06:21
Rett smoke cosmic dust was also
06:23
responsible for blocking the light
06:25
emitted from stars and galaxies mean
06:27
that for the first 380,000 years or so
06:30
our universe was essentially too opaque
06:33
to shine physicist in robotis from
06:36
Columbia University states gravitational
06:39
waves arrive at earth long before any
06:41
light does which is exactly what verse
06:44
12 of chapter 41 indicates he made in
06:47
each heaven it's affair and adorned the
06:49
nearest heaven with lamps by using the
06:52
lamps as an analogy for light this first
06:54
reflects the fact that the universe was
06:56
in darkness in its early stages it
06:58
further reflects the sequence of events
07:00
we discussed earlier as God mentioned
07:02
what anchors first then mentioned the
07:04
night' implying that gravitational waves
07:06
arrived at earth long before when he
07:08
lighted just as physicists such as emory
07:11
Bartos would confirm over fourteen
07:13
hundred years later
