Abstract

Muslims believe Quran as the word of God (Allah), sent as verbal revelation to Prophet Mohammad S.A.W. through the angel Gabriel. In the paper from segregate verses of Quran, the main events taking part in the time-line of one of the most widely accepted theories Lambda-Cold Dark Matter ‘model’ which is the current "standard model" of Big Bang cosmology is derived. The six long periods that took part in the creation of universe as mentioned in Quran as “sittati ayyam” meaning six eras, epochs or eons, is studied and explained after fraternizing the results with the Big Bang model. The fact is established after some reasoning that behind the creation of the universe was the Will of God and Hazrat Mohammad (S.A.W.) was indeed the prophet of God (Allah).     Key words: Islam, Quran, Bible, Big Bang, expansion of universe.

Highlights

  • Big Bang is the most successful theory that was ever propounded in the history of science to explain the origin of the universe as well as the practical observations like expansion of the universe, cosmic micro wave background radiation, gravitational waves, galaxy formation and evolution, and the distribution of largescale cosmic structures (Gladders et al, 2007)

  • Telephone Laboratories in New Jersey by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, and the relative abundances of light elements produced by Big Bang nucleosynthesis, the Big Bang theory became the most accepted theory of physics

  • Since to any earthling who is bounded with limits and boundaries, the creation of Big Bang is not possible, it is necessary for one to believe that in the creation of Big Bang there is an intervention of some divine, supreme and omnipotent being; someone usually referred to as God, who choose the initial conditions and state suitable for the creation of the universe that we cannot hope to understand, who created the set of well-defined laws to enable the universe evolve and does not intervene in the universe to break these laws (Hawking, 1988)
