The quran seems to disagree with the knowledge we have now, the quran says the earth and the heavens were torn apart during the big bang.
First of all I don't know what "the heavens" are, are they the universe?
Modern day descriptions of the big bang don't include the earth because the components that made up the earth wouldn't form to create the earth for several billion years.
The planet we know as Earth didn't exist during the big bang.
The earth is 4.5 billion years old the universe is around 13 billion years old. So as I said, there would be billions of years of waiting around before there's even an earth in existence after the big bang.
Unless the quran is talking about the components of the earth, I find it unlikely but if it is talking about the components of the earth then this is still a confusing explanation since I don't think anyone would say the earth has been torn apart from the universe/heavens. The earth is still within the universe, so what is the earth separate from?
The Earth is no more separate from the rest of the universe than any other component that makes up the universe. It isn't a unique focal point.
In my opinion if you look at the earth being torn apart from the heavens it's much more in line with ancient mythology than modern day science. The belief that the earth was always here, that there's an earth realm and heaven realm and god performed the action of tearing them apart.
I can see why it's tempting to look into all this shit, especially if you've been indoctrinated/mentally abused since childhood with supernatural threats of violence to believe in all this.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
