Sahih International
And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
Scientifically, this couldn't be more true:

Quote:Then in 1929, the American astronomer Edwin Hubble found hard evidence that the universe was expanding. Einstein changed his mind, calling his previous insistence on a static universe the "greatest blunder" of his career.
Um no,
There is nothing scientific about any holy writing of any religion in human history.
Reaching back in time after the fact to retrofit what you personally want to be true is a tactic used by every religion.
Ambiguous words written in antiquity DO NOT constitute modern scientific knowledge. Every religion in the world has followers that love to point to their holy writings in a bullshit attempt to fit a square peg in a round hole.
Any idiot can look up at the daytime sky and call the sun the sun. But nobody in antiquity knew what it was made of, or that the earth revolved around the sun. Anyone can point to the sky and call it blue, but in antiquity nobody knew why our eyes perceive the sky as blue.
