He didn't use the word "rain". He used the word "water".
Water is not rain. We never say "the sky is "watering". Also in Arabic we never use water to describe rainfall.
You know that wet stuff that falls out of the sky? What's that made of, exactly?

It depends.
It rains glass in this planet:

Quote:There's a "blue marble" alien planet just 63 light-years from Earth, but the world is anything but friendly to life. Researchers say the blue color in the atmosphere likely comes from a rain of molten glass.
While on Venus, it rains acid:

Quote:Surface level humidity is less than 0.1%.[43] Venus's sulfuric acid rain never reaches the ground, but is evaporated by the heat before reaching the surface in a phenomenon known as virga.[44]
Moreover, it rains diamonds on Jupiter and Saturn:

Quote:Chunks of diamonds may be floating in hydrogen and helium fluid deep in the atmospheres of Saturn and Jupiter. What's more, at even lower depths, the extreme pressure and temperature can melt the precious gem, literally making it rain liquid diamond, researchers said.
The Quran is a universal book. So no wonder it is very specific. Who says rain is water? it's only water on earth.

And the heresy is found in Book 8, Harry Potter and the Student Loans.

Funny how the Quran never says anything like, 'And on the Morning Star, we have sent clouds of acid.'

Give atlas a few weeks and some good dro - he'll find exactly that in his magic book. In fact, he can find anything in there.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

Imagine that. A book that says anything you want it to say. That really is magic.

Smacking comets into a dead land isn't going to revive anything.
No; use the actual word used: i.e "water". Not "comet".
And that's because the Quran can't science. NASA used the words "comet" and "asteroid".
NASA Wrote:Over billions of years, countless comets and asteroids have collided with Earth, enriching our planet with water. Chemical markers in the water of our oceans suggest that most of the water came from asteroids. Recent observations hint that ice, and possibly even liquid water, exists in the interiors of asteroids and comets.
In case you didn't read the article that you linked, water does not come from space as a gentle mist. It arrives as a multi-gigatonne blast scouring away all life for a thousand kilometers. It does the opposite of "revive thereby a dead land". Your water from space absurdity doesn't fit the context of your own scripture.
