Assalamualaikum, dr israr said that,
in the akhirat or arsh the time doesn't exist. Time is a attribute of our World

[KurdishGhost]

So what about this hadith ?

Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, created the clay on Saturday and He created the mountains on Sunday and He created the trees on Monday and He created the things entailing labour on Tuesday and created light on Wednesday and He caused the animals to spread on Thursday and created Adam (peace be upon him) after 'Asr on Friday; the last creation at the last hour of the hours of Friday, i. e. between afternoon and night. This hadith is narrated through another chain of transmitters.
حَدَّثَنِي سُرَيْجُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، مَوْلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِيَدِي فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ التُّرْبَةَ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ وَخَلَقَ فِيهَا الْجِبَالَ يَوْمَ الأَحَدِ وَخَلَقَ الشَّجَرَ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَخَلَقَ الْمَكْرُوهَ يَوْمَ الثُّلاَثَاءِ وَخَلَقَ النُّورَ يَوْمَ الأَرْبِعَاءِ وَبَثَّ فِيهَا الدَّوَابَّ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ وَخَلَقَ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فِي آخِرِ الْخَلْقِ وَفِي آخِرِ سَاعَةٍ مِنْ سَاعَاتِ الْجُمُعَةِ فِيمَا بَيْنَ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ

But Moses knew what a day was and he made it pretty clear when writing Genesis. Try reading it again.

The Qur'an says in two verses, (22:47 and 32:5), that the measure of one day in the sight of Allah is equal to 1, 000 years of our/human reckoning/computation.
In another verse (70:4) it says that the measure of one day in the sight of Allah is equal to 50, 000 years of our/human reckoning/computation.

SCIENCE QUESTION IF QURAN IS NOT FALSE: What is the speed of earth's rotation in MPH on human time if 1000 years is equal to 1 day of Allah? (presently 1 day is 24 hours, circumference of earth 24, 901 Miles, speed of rotation 1, 030 MPH).

Any Muslim, Christians, Atheists scientists out there?

Alla told it in the 6th century through holly sprit to Mohamad to know the entire world and we know it by mohamad, why this two and alla is not aware this time ( days) is not understandable to the world.

[pissanukatika]

There are many of God’s words telling Muhammad that men don’t understand.

[doomsday]

The Arabic word thuma is being used 😅 togetherness/Simultaneously

[imhassane]

how does God have a day though ? I mean we human have a day thanks to the sun, why would God have a day if he doesn't get tired, the angels don't need to sleep, why would he have a day ? Just asking.

[redhell]

Then what is mean by day according to quran. Why he said day ? Then what is day for allah

[sajjadkhan]

[aemiliadelroba]

Frk !

“ We don’t know what it mean and we are not going to dive into it “

You just don’t know .

I do not believe in evolution. I have also different point of view on what the Bible says. Why?
Becouse I see it from the point about the narration starts! Where is the narrator at the begining?
Imagine that what is written. No light, complete darknes! BUT, he can feel the raging water and blowing wind!!!
SO, the narrator must stand on the surface on the bondaryless ocean,
hearing and feeling the strange wind from God. Thhat wind is going forth and back like going in circles.

SO what? SO the rest of the story is said from that perspective. The human point of view, NOT GOD'S!!!
SO, Bible talks about what the man saw what God was doing. To me that man was Logos.
And that is why he sees from his point of view, from his perspective that light is first than the sources of light!
And that why he sees light and then darknes - becouse the Earth is spinning with him on its surface.
By the way, what waters were spilleted? I suppose that the Wind from God had different temperature and moisture than the atmosfere above the ocean. Atmosfere was full of moisture, the clouds were low upon the surface of the see.
Probably that's why in second chapter there is written that there was no rain but the fogg was watering surface of the Earth.

So, first Bible does not teach about whole Universe, but only about creating the Earth as we see it.
Second, it looks that our home - the land, the see and the atmosfere and everything that live whithin it was created in six days!

I see that some problems my narration puts in reasonable order, harmonizing Bible with science discoveries.
But I still believe God's Word, not materialistic, satanic narration of unbelivers. God bless you!

This is One of the Strongest Signs That Quran is Preserved till this Day and is Without any Contradiction Despite the fact that Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H) couldn't read or write.

The Sign that clearly indicates that Quran is the Word of Allah S.W.T.

And Allah S.W.T is not limited as we humans are . We Can't encompass His Knowledge.

As a Rational being, We have to accept our limitations.

We Can't fix our eyes on the Sun in it's Full swing.

According to Science, We have Only 5% knowledge of Universe, while Universe is constantly expanding.

All Our Senses work within a Range.

Even Our own Body is not Totally under our Control.

How?🤔

Well, You may have heard about the Vital Signs.

They are 4 in number.If any one of them rises or falls too much, the person dies.

They're:

1. Temperature
2. Blood pressure
3. Heart Rate/ Pulse Rate
4.Breathing Rate/ Respiratory Rate

Normally, All these Vital Signs are Working Under our Subconscious mind.

At the moment, You're Reading this Comment.Your Conscious mind is busy in Understanding and interpreting the Message in this Comment.

Meanwhile, Your vitals are being Regulated by the Subconscious mind.

Did you stop Reading the Comment to Regulate your Vitals?

Definitely No need to do so ...

This is One of the Greatest blessings that Allah S.W.T made it so easy for us.(Alhamdulillah)

The Vastness of the Universe in comparison to Our knowledge of Universe is Clearly speaking to us:

“Hey Man!
Don't be ignorant of your limitations. Be humble.”

Hope this Helps.

Jazakallah hu Khairan!( May Allah grant you the Better Reward)

So many assumptions here !
So you say you know for sure it was God who made the universe and nothing else !😮
how do you know that ?

what Muslims apologists don’t know they create stories and hypotheses.

So God wanted to act wise and that’s why it took God 6 days to make the world !?
😮

This subjects God to time !.

God should not think like humans,

Thinking to acting, if there is a time between them then God is subject to time as well .

Apologist come up with this interpretation to make sense of some old myth that was going on in that era and try to make it into a scientific issue .

It strange Muslims follow the 7 day week which was created by Babylonian Pagans 4000 years ago. Made even more strange as al lah says he made the Everything in 6 days (and also 8).
