THE COMING OF THE UNIVERSE INTO EXISTENCE
Until the mid-20th century, the prevalent view across the world was that the
universe was infinite, had existed forever and that it will continue to do so
for all time. According to this view, known as the "static universe model," the
universe had no end or beginning.
In maintaining that the universe is a collection of fixed, static and
unchanging substances, this view has constituted the basis of materialist
philosophy and has consequently rejected the existence of a Creator. However,
as science and technology progressed during the 20th century, the static
universe model has been completely uprooted.
We have now entered the 21st century and a new dawn is upon us. Through
numerous experiments, observations and calculation conducted by some of the
world's most prominent thinkers, modern physics has proven that the universe
did indeed have a beginning, that it came into being from nothing in a single
moment in a huge explosion. Furthermore, it has been established that the
universe is not fixed and static, as materialists still stubbornly maintain. On
the contrary, it is undergoing a constant process of movement, change and
expansion. These recently-established facts all act as nails in the coffin of
the static universe theory. Today, all these facts are universally accepted by
the scientific community.
The origin of the universe is described in the Qur'an in the following verse:
He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. (Qur'an, 6:101)
This information is in full agreement with the findings of contemporary
scientists. As we stated earlier, the conclusion that astrophysics has reached
today is that the entire universe, together with the dimensions of matter and
time, came into existence as a result of a great explosion that occurred a long
time ago. This event, known as "The Big Bang," is the catalyst for the creation
of the universe from nothingness. This explosion, all parties in the scientific
community agree, emanated from a single point some 15 billion years ago. (See
Harun Yahya, The Creation of the Universe, Al-Attique Publishers Inc. Canada,
2000)
Before the Big Bang, there was no such thing as matter. From a condition of
non-existence in which neither matter, nor energy, nor even time existed-and
which can only be described metaphysically-matter, energy, and time were all
created in an instant. This fact, only recently discovered by modern physics,
was announced to us in the Qur'an 1,400 years ago.
The sensitive sensors on board the COBE space satellite, launched by NASA in
1992, captured evidentiary remnants of the Big Bang. This discovery served as
evidence for the Big Bang, which is the scientific explanation of the fact that
the universe was created from nothing.
