( 3 ) Thus has He revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and to those before you - Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
( 4 ) To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great.
( 5 ) The heavens almost break from above them, and the angels exalt [Allah] with praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on earth. Unquestionably, it is Allah who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.
( 6 ) And those who take as allies other than Him - Allah is [yet] Guardian over them; and you, [O Muhammad], are not over them a manager.
Things "break" when they are "expanded"?
How did Mohammed know that heaven was expanding?
If we assumed ignorance and lying of the author of the Quran; why would they refer explicitly to such a fact?
Even a nomad Muslim in the desert 1400 years ago, would know that the skies (universe) is expanding. Not just that; actually saying otherwise defies the verse above.
The universe is expanding, by the direct statement of verse 47 of Sura 51 in the Quran, and the implicit referring by verse 5 of Sura 42
Long before Hubble's discovery. 1400 years approximately.

Quote:Hubble's law is considered the first observational basis for the expansion of the universe
The verse in Arabic:
والسماء بنيناها بأيد وإنا لموسعون
That's a phony translation, which makes the whole thing is phony because the word "manager" didn't exist until 1580 A.D. https://www.etymonline.com/word/manager
