🌍 Understanding the Shape and Function of Earth

This paragraph explores the concept of Earth's shape in relation to Quranic verses, discussing whether the Earth is flat or round. It emphasizes that the Quran does not specifically address Earth's shape but focuses on its functionality, how it can be used for human activities. It touches on scientific theories like the Big Bang, citing Quranic references such as Surah Al-Anbiya (21:30), where the initial state of the universe is described as being united before a great explosion. The speaker explains that while the Quran hints at the round shape of Earth, its main message is about Earth's functionality and purpose in supporting life.

🌑 The Earth as a Functional Creation

This paragraph delves deeper into the idea of Earth's shape being round like a ball. The speaker compares this to how night and day alternate as the Earth rotates, an idea reflected in Quranic language. The speaker uses the metaphor of a ball to explain that a rotating sphere naturally produces alternating day and night. They argue that even though the Earth is round, humans can comfortably live on it due to Allah's power in flattening parts of it for practical use, emphasizing that only Allah can create such a balance between the Earth's roundness and its functionality for human life.

Keywords

💡Khalaqah

Khalaqah means 'creation' or 'to create,' and in the context of the video, it refers to how Allah created the heavens and the earth with a specific form and purpose. The video explains that the Qur'an uses this term to talk about the function and design of the earth, emphasizing its intentional creation.

💡Ja'ala

Ja'ala is another term used in the Qur'an, meaning 'to make' or 'to appoint.' The speaker uses this term to illustrate how the earth was made not only in a physical sense but also in terms of its function. The video contrasts 'khalaqah' and 'ja'ala' to explain how the earth's design serves a greater purpose.

💡Bola (sphere)

Bola refers to the shape of the earth as a sphere. The speaker discusses how the Qur'an hints at the earth being spherical, particularly when describing the rotation of day and night. This concept is central to the argument that the earth's shape is like a ball, a point that connects to the scientific understanding of the earth's roundness.

💡Yukawwiru

Yukawwiru is an Arabic term meaning 'to fold' or 'to wrap around,' and it is used in the Qur'an to describe the alternation of day and night. In the video, the speaker uses this word to support the idea that the earth is round, as only a spherical object could experience the cyclical nature of day and night in this manner.

💡Big Bang Theory

The Big Bang Theory is mentioned in relation to Qur'an surah 21:30, where the speaker explains that the Qur'an hints at the idea of the universe starting from a single entity that was then split apart. This is paralleled with modern scientific theories about the origins of the universe, showcasing how the Qur'an predates these ideas.

💡An-Naba

An-Naba is the 78th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an. The video discusses verse 6 from this surah, which talks about the creation of the earth. The speaker emphasizes that this verse is not about the shape of the earth, but rather its functional purpose, encouraging reflection on how humans can use the earth to live and thrive.

💡Az-Zumar

Az-Zumar is the 39th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an, and verse 5 is cited in the video. This verse discusses the creation of the heavens and the earth with a specific purpose and how Allah manages the alternation of day and night. The speaker links this to the concept of the earth's roundness, as the folding of night and day implies a spherical shape.

💡Functionalization of the Earth

This concept refers to how the Qur'an focuses on the functionality of the earth rather than its shape. The speaker explains that the Qur'an’s message is about how the earth is designed to support human activity, with its surface made comfortable for living, despite its spherical shape.

💡Heavens and Earth

The term 'heavens and earth' is frequently mentioned in the Qur'an and in the video to refer to the entire universe. The speaker discusses how these were created by Allah with specific functions in mind, and how the study of the heavens and earth can reveal deeper truths about existence and divine purpose.

💡Day and Night Cycle

The cycle of day and night is used in the video to illustrate the spherical nature of the earth. The Qur'anic description of day and night being 'folded' over one another is interpreted as a sign that the earth rotates, which aligns with the modern understanding of how the earth’s rotation creates day and night.

Highlights

The Quran suggests that the shape of the Earth is similar to a sphere, hinting at its roundness rather than flatness.

The verse in Surah An-Naba doesn't focus on the Earth's shape but rather on the Earth's functionality and its purpose for human activities.

To understand the Earth's shape, one must look beyond the Earth itself, as the Quran is more concerned with how the Earth can be used for life.

Surah Al-Anbiya (21:30) references the creation of the universe, aligning with the Big Bang theory where everything was initially one mass before being separated.

Scientists discovered the universe originated from a single mass and expanded after a Big Bang, a concept already described in the Quran long before modern science.

Surah Az-Zumar (39:5) describes how Allah created the heavens and the Earth with purpose and function, emphasizing that everything in creation has a specific role.

The Quran uses a metaphor to describe the alternation of day and night, likening it to folding or wrapping, implying the Earth's rotation.

The verb 'yukawiru' (to wrap) from Surah Az-Zumar suggests the Earth's spherical nature as it describes the turning of night and day over its surface.

The concept of the Earth's roundness is metaphorically supported by the imagery of something being wrapped or folded, a clear indication of its spherical shape.

It is impossible for a square object to rotate and produce the same effect as a spherical one, reinforcing the understanding of Earth's roundness.

Although the Earth is spherical, Allah has made every point on it feel like a flat surface, allowing humans to live and function comfortably.

Allah's power allows the spherical Earth to be experienced as flat at every point, making human activity possible across the globe.

The description of the Earth as both spherical and seemingly flat is reconciled by divine will, showcasing Allah’s ability to make the Earth functional for life.

The term 'bola dunia' (world globe) is commonly used to refer to Earth, reflecting its spherical shape that is accepted and understood universally.

The Quran suggests a dual understanding of the Earth’s form: spherical in structure but flat in its experience for human activity, highlighting Allah’s wisdom and design.

Transcripts

isyarat Quran menunjukkan bahwa bumi itu

kalau bicara bentuk mendekati kepada

bentuk seperti bola jadi bulat apa datar

[Musik]

jadi saya ingin katakan kalau disebutkan

itu bentuk

wujud kalau disebutkan itu fungsi yang

melekat pada wujud yang telah nyata itu

telah ada itu jelas sampai sini baik

sekarang masuk kembali ke an-naba ayat 6

balik lagi baca sama-sama

alam

karena ada lam jadi sukun

karena nyambung jadi kasrah Najwa

[Musik]

jadi ayat ini bukan ingin berbicara

tentang bentuk bumi tapi ingin berbicara

tentang

fungsionalisasi bumi yang sudah

terbentuk itu bagaimana bumi bisa

digunakan Bagaimana semua yang ada di

bumi itu bisa dijalani untuk

beraktivitas itu maksudnya jelas jadi

kalau ingin tahu bentuk bumi keluar dari

bumi cek

Pertanyaan selanjutnya Ustadz Apakah ada

isyarat tentang pembentukan bumi dalam

Alquran ada cuman ayatnya bukan di sini

nanti kalau sudah masuk suratnya kita

bahas ada referensinya bisa Quran surah

ke-21 sejak bahkan menyatu dengan

semuanya yang kelak ditemukan teori Big

Bang itu kan ledakan besar Big Bang

Quran surah ke-21 ayat 30

apakah orang-orang yang ingkar kepada

Allah itu nggak tahu bahwa Allah itu

kuasa saat menciptakan langit dan bumi

itu tadinya semua menyatu

menyatu satu bentuk kemudian terjadi

ledakan besar dipisahkan semua itu

berpisah

lalu ilmuwan meneliti menganalisis

sampai menyimpulkan Oh ternyata benar

asalnya bumi itu menyatu dalam satu

bentuk yang sama satu wujud kemudian

baru ada ledakan besar terpecah-pecah

sampai 13.700 miliar tahun baru jadi

dingin baru terbentuk bumi Qur'an sudah

menyampaikan itu jauh sebelum teorinya

itu muncul

lagi Quran surah ke 39 ayat ke-5

umum dulu ya nanti masuk ke surah itu

bahas itu kita akan Uraikan kita masih

di an-naba

pelan-pelan

sudah

Quran surah ke 39 az-zumar ayat 5

kalau bicara khalaqah bicara bentuknya

bicara fungsinya

jelas

Allah telah menciptakan langit dan bumi

bilhaqbalnya di situ Namanya baklil

qoyah dengan tujuan yang benar untuk

difungsikan Jadi tidak mungkin Allah

mencipta sesuatu tanpa fungsi tanpa

tujuan

apapun itu sekecil apapun itu bak itu

nanti fungsinya ada 14 dalam bahasa Arab

nanti bak yang dimaksud disini dengan

tujuan menerangkan kepada kita bahwa ada

fungsi yang Allah tetapkan di langit dan

bumi itu yang akan mengiringi kehidupan

kita

terus kan belum selesai you knowland

ini yang paling indah Lalu Allah melipat

mengganti maksudnya cuman menggunakan

kinayah di sini melipat siang dan malam

bergantian

yukawiri itu dari kata kau

warata

itu kalau sekarang diterjemahkan dengan

bola-bola itu bentuknya apa karena itu

ada yang mengatakan ada isyarat dari

sini kalau berbicara bentuk bumi

terlihat seperti bola bentuknya bulat

apakah bulatnya bulat murni ataukah

bulatnya setengah murni dan sebagainya

yang penting berbentuk seperti bola

kalau bicara bentukannya

kalau bola itu diputar ya bola berputar

nggak putarkan kalau diputar itu diputar

Bukankah seperti yang terlipat di atas

ke bawah yang bawah naik ke atas ini

bahasa kiasan majas dalam Quran jadi

ketika Allah menampilkan malam siangnya

dilipat bahwa maka yang ada di bawah

merasakan malam yang di atas merasakan

siang demikian seterusnya berputar Ya

nggak mungkin kan kalau berputar kalau

enggak bulat

benda yang kotak bisa diputar cuma ancur

kan ya kan Karena normal kan Maka kalau

ingin berbicara tentang bentuk silakan

keluar dari bumi cuma isyarat Quran

menunjukkan bahwa bumi itu kalau bicara

bentuk mendekati kepada bentuk seperti

bola jadi bulat apa datar

sekarang bisa nggak Anda beraktivitas di

tempat yang bulat

beraktifitas di tempat yang bulat bisa

nggak tidur di atas ban bisa nggak

tidur di atas ban bisa nggak

bisa aja kalau bannya dihamparkan gitu

kan bannya dihamparkan begini

didaftarkan bisa kita tidur di atasnya

tapi kalau bannya bulat bagaimana

maka inilah menjadikan kuasa Allah

menjadikan setiap titik di bumi yang

bentuknya bulat seperti bola itu setiap

titiknya dihamparkan yang ada di dalam

bulatan itu dihamparkan supaya kita

nyaman beraktivitas di dalamnya itu

maksudnya siapa yang bisa menjadikan

satu benda yang bulat di dalamnya bisa

datar

kecuali Allah

jadi kita menyatukan antara teori bulat

dan datar dalam satu kajian yang sama

ini kalau ingin bicara bentuk Keluar

kita temukan pasti terlihat bulat

seperti bola masanya kan kita katakan

makanya kita katakan bola dunia

Halo Google tolong belikan blog bola

dunia gitu kan dibaca bentuk seperti

bola diputar-putar putar putar putar

putar jelas sampai sini baik tapi

bagaimana kita bisa beraktivitas di

tempat yang bulat kalau bukan karena

kuasa Allah nggak mungkin bisa terjadi

maka kata Allah dari bentuk yang seperti

ini aku jadikan di dalamnya mudah

beraktivitas karena aku hamparkan

seperti hamparan
