- 22:0222:02, 21 February 2024 diff hist +69 m Scientific Miracles in the Quran Just made the point explicit of hardly matching a book of scientific foreknowledge Tag: Visual edit
- 19:5819:58, 21 February 2024 diff hist +3,187 Scientific Miracles in the Quran Added the points that A) classical exegetes/scholars in Islam's 'golden age' of science never claimed any scientific foreknowledge even as discoveries were made many centuries prior to modern times - and added an academic reference (Ahmad Dallal's book) of a book covering this topic of the historical view. And B) In many cases the Quran has been used to fight against established scientific facts, and still is today, which goes strongly against the idea of a book of scientific foreknowledge.

- 18:1018:10, 18 February 2024 diff hist +374 Cosmology of the Quran →The locations of Heaven and Hell: Added a small point how the rivers of paradise are always described as running 'below/underneath' the gardens, which links in with antiquity imagery of paradise being connected to Earth via rivers as discussed in the paragraph.

- 16:0416:04, 17 February 2024 diff hist +2,643 Historical Errors in the Quran →Noah's worldwide flood: Have added in some more verses on the story of Noah relevant for it being a worldwide flood. And made the point that all classical scholars took it to refer to a worldwide flood citing a range of the most popular exegesis. Plus provided a link/source from an modern geologist academic providing an overview of the geological issues of a worldwide flood. Tag: Visual edit

- 23:3523:35, 14 February 2024 diff hist +3,211 Scientific Errors in the Quran →The entire heaven has a night and day: I have added in another scientific error in the description of the day and night as veils in the sky (which is also linked to the above point about being a property of the heavens), rather than coming from the sun or earths movement in the Quran. Also listed and linked a famous tafsir of Al-Razi who supported daylight not coming from the sun due to these verses. Tag: Visual edit
- 21:1621:16, 14 February 2024 diff hist +808 Islamic Views on the Shape of the Earth →The spring where the sun sets: Added another important early tafsir (the earliest) on this verse confirming the literal setting (rising and) place of the sun in a hot muddy spring, which is of course only possible on a flat Earth.

Tag: Visual edit

- 23:3423:34, 12 February 2024 diff hist −48 m Shooting Stars in the Quran →The Qur'an: Actually removing the 'separately to stars and flames being used as a protection' part of the sentence, as Ibn Abbas is quoted as this star burning satans (in Ibn Kathirs tafsir here), so is not 100% unrelated in Islamic works. Tag: Visual edit
- 23:3123:31, 12 February 2024 diff hist +3,489 Shooting Stars in the Quran →Ancient beliefs around stars and meteors pre-Islam: Have added another Quran verse that traditional accounts have written exegesis (in the form of the book of circumstances of revelation) confusing the piercing/illuminating star with a meteor - and linked/cited the sources.

- 23:4823:48, 9 February 2024 diff hist +366 m Islamic Views on the Shape of the Earth →Flat Earth in the hadiths: Added in a link to the Science and the Seven Earths pages where relevant. And a small line highlighting (and linking to) the many verses Al-Jalalayn believed showed a clear flat earth - not only the one listed. Tag: Visual edit
8 February 2024
- 22:3922:39, 8 February 2024 diff hist +1,950 Scientific Miracles in the Quran →Methodology of Islamic theologians: Have added a small section I believe is definitely worth calling out, on simply mistranslations being used to claim miracles Tag: Visual edit

- 23:0623:06, 7 February 2024 diff hist +579 Semen Production in the Quran →Overarching criticisms: Added a small section on William Campbells full response with a link to read the book for free - it's a great concise resource debunking this. As is the YouTube video also linked. Tag: Visual edit

Would recommend reading! Tag: Visual edit
- 16:2216:22, 5 February 2024 diff hist +1,434 Quran and a Universe from Smoke →Qur'anic Verse in Context: Added paragraph on stars being made before the Earth a scientific error, as well as no differentiation of the creation of stars vs planets, which are both 'lamps' in the sky. Tag: Visual edit
- 12:4112:41, 5 February 2024 diff hist +945 Islamic Views on the Shape of the Earth →The spring where the sun sets: Have added in the point that I don't think has been made before - that alongside the many early tafsir writers listed as being flat-earthers, so mostly likely were all the major hadith collectors, who were themselves key scholars of early Islam.

- 22:2222:22, 3 February 2024 diff hist −6 Science and the Seven Earths →== ==See Also: I am attempting to solve the issue off the bottom part of the page appearing as all bold text that can no longer be edited - as there appears to be an unnecessary '== ==' that may be causing the problem. Please do not accept if it messes things up further!
- 18:4518:45, 3 February 2024 diff hist +8,674 Science and the Seven Earths →Seven Universes: Added a section on the Universe being split from Earth definition not matching modern science - and counters to some apologetic arguments from preachers like Zakir Naik. As well as a smaller section on the Earth being classed as a separate entity to the Universe (unlike other heavenly objects). Tag: Visual edit
- 01:5501:55, 3 February 2024 diff hist −3 m Cosmology of the Quran →Towers: Just removed some blank space left from the previous update and expanded the bold section of Quran quote to cover the full relevant section. Tag: Visual edit

- 00:0900:09, 3 February 2024 diff hist +3,337 Quranism →Five Pillars of Islam: I have added in some more scholarly information and citations on this topic, and changed some of the more polemical language to be more balanced which I will continue to review. And I've added a small section on the Sunni-shia as nothing on electing religious leaders is in the Quran. Tag: Visual edit
2 February 2024
- 21:5121:51, 2 February 2024 diff hist +1,543 Science and the Seven Earths →Seven Layers of the Earth: Added some more context to 7 Earths section, up-to-date references and a link to further examples of there arguably being many, many layers of Earth using natural classifications - 7 is arbitrary. As well as classical commentators identifying the word 'sijjinn' in verses Quran 83:7-8 with the lowest Earth (or just below it in hell), or as a place where the book of bad deeds of humans is kept and devils live supporting the traditional cosmological view. Tag: Visual edit
1 February 2024

- 18:2718:27, 29 January 2024 diff hist +574 m Quranism →Five Pillars of Islam: Added in a (very) small section on issues with Quranism referencing characters that are introduced without explaining who they are, or in the case of Abu Lahab, what they did to be condemned etc, that require secondary literature to explain. Tag: Visual edit
28 January 2024
- 23:3923:39, 28 January 2024 diff hist −256 Science and the Seven Earths Added a verse stating clouds are specifically between the heaven and universe to back up previous verses interpretation that there is n actual gap of space between the firmament heaven and Earth in the Quran. Also something happened with my last update sorry! The page seems to have gone strange and I can't edit it. The 'See Also' section has two equals signs, and the pervious text in this section can't be clicked on or edited (everywhere else on the page is fine for me though). Thank you. Tag: Visual edit
