Ibrahim have claimed that the Qur'an contains an accurate account of the formation of stars and early phases of the Universe. The entire apologetic argument rests on the Qur'anic description of the "heavens" as "smoke"; a claim which in-turn rests on a false equivalence made between smoke and the makeup of the early universe. The attempt to show that the Qur'an correctly describes the formation of stars (by quoting a portion of Qur'an 41:11) and then the earth (by quoting Qur'an 21:30) is shown to be disingenuous. When the whole of verse 41:11 and its surrounding verses are read in context, it provides a clear chronological account of the earth being formed first and then the hills and sustenance are created upon it. Only after the earth has been created does Allah create the stars. The entire account in the Qur'an is not an accurate reflection of the formation of the Universe.

Many Muslims, especially the younger generation, refer to Dr. Zakir Naik (who believes apostates should be executed), as an expert in the “scientific miracles” of the Qur'an. One obviously would expect that such a great “scientific expert” would actually know a thing or two about science. He once attempted to refute the theory of evolution during the ‘Qur’an and Modern Science – Conflict or Conciliation?’ question and answer session. His entire refutation was rather short, and unsurprisingly received a rapturous applause from his audience. Yet in those few words, Dr. Naik managed to make 28 demonstrable errors of simple fact. This is an astounding level of scientific incompetence. (read more)
