I think you misunderstood me. As I see it, the Qur'an authors borrowed already-existing information (e.g. the known existence of the sun, moon and planets.)
Fact: The sun, moon and planets exist. I've observed all three myself (only planets in the solar system I haven't observed are Uranus and Neptune - I've seen all the others.)
Unsupported assertion: A god created the sun, moon and planets.
One famous example for facts in the Quran is about the formation of clouds through winds:
Quote:Sura 7, The Quran:
https://quran.com/7:57?store=false&translations=
Translator: — Abdul Haleem
(57) It is God who sends the winds, bearing good news of His coming grace, and when they have gathered up the heavy clouds, We drive them to a dead land where We cause rain to fall, bringing out all kinds of crops, just as We shall bring out the dead. Will you not reflect?
And
Quote:Sura 35, The Quran:
https://quran.com/35:9?store=false&translations=
Translator: — Abdul Haleem
(9) It is God who sends forth the winds; they raise up the clouds; We drive them to a dead land and with them revive the earth after its death: such will be the Resurrection.
Facts like this were never known before, but the Quran pointed to them accurately. If something this accurate is admit by the book and it is right, then the rest of claims are true too.
