Do you know what book discussed science and astrology, solar system and family!. It arrived over 1400 years?
Question:
Answer:
That would be The Holy Qur'an.
TWO examples:
OZONE LAYER:
Holy Qur'an, 18:90 "Until he reached the rising of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had provided no shield against it (the sun)."
1- The word "shield" implies that there is something harmful from the sun, because if there was no harm to come from the sun, there would be no need for a shield.
2- The words "We had provided no shield" indicate that the shield is a natural one (of God's making) and not a man-made one. This automatically eliminates the suggestion of houses and other man-made shelters.
3-The phrasing of the verse indicates that the people mentioned as having no shield are in fact the exception and that for the rest of mankind there is a shield.
4- The verse indicates the presence of a people, and thus areas, that are not shielded. This is in line with the current knowledge concerning the existence of holes in the ozone layer. It is generally thought that these holes have always existed. The matter has suddenly acquired an alarming nature because the size of these holes is greatly being enlarged as a result of man's pollution of the planet.
The only phenomenon that is able to accommodate all these four implications is the ozone layer.
LESS OXYGEN WHEN UP
Holy Qur'an, 6:127 "Whoever God wills to guide, He opens his chest and whoever He wills to leave straying He makes his chest tight and constricted as if he was ascending in the sky."
It is now known that the higher we ascend in the sky the less air we would find, and thus the less oxygen so vital for respiration. A person flying at great heights in aircraft or air balloon would feel a sharp contraction of the lungs causing pain. The revelation of Qur'an was in the 7th century, no one would have known that ascending in the sky would cause constriction and pain in the chest, simply because it was way before the age of air flight (ascending in the sky).
Did you know I can give you several books from centuries BC that mention cosmology and mention that all things were one amongst other things including the solar system, etc?
So are they right because they are even older?
Did you know that:
"Chinese mathematics, was defined by Chinese in ancient times as the "art of calculation" (suan chu). This art was both a practical and spiritual one, and covered a wide range of subjects from religion and astronomy to water control and administration. The first true evidence of mathematical activity in China can be found in numeration symbols on tortoise shells and flat cattle bones (commonly called oracle bones, dated from the Shang dynasty. (14th century B.C.)"
