The woven sky and supercomputers

Reader comment on item: The Enemy Has a Name
in response to reader comment: sTs: As the Koran says in 54:17….. Do any of you (Muslims) wish to learn?

I have attached a web site to my comment and translation of this verse

"(God swears by) the sky that is woven (full of paths)"

to show you the shape of the sky that scientists discovered by using the supercomputer - it looks like woven thing - it is awesome view

however the moderator have deleted the websites for reasons unknown

I have taken the literal meaning from the dictionary that shows that the sky is actually a woven place that was created by God.

How can Mohammad know the shape of the sky, when only recently by using a super computer the scientists were able to see the woven sky

Dislike
Submitting....
