وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلَّيْلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَ وَٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ ۖ كُلٌّۭ فِى فَلَكٍۢ يَسْبَحُونَ

"It is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; all (heavenly bodies) are swimming in an orbit."

The Orbits of Celestial Bodies

Modern Science

Astronomy has confirmed that all celestial bodies move in precise orbits. From planets to stars, nothing in the cosmos drifts randomly — every body follows a calculated path.

Key Scientific Facts:

The Earth orbits the Sun once every 365 days

The Moon orbits the Earth every 27 days

Even the Sun itself orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy at incredible speed

Qur’ānic Revelation 1400 Years Ago

“It is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; all are swimming in an orbit.”

(Qur’ān 21:33)

The Qur’ān described the precise orbits of celestial bodies over 1,400 years ago — knowledge that modern astronomy only discovered with advanced observation.
