Default Apparently some Muslims believe the sun will rise from the west for 3 days. How commo

Bonus question: Any articles from Muslim astronomers about how this feat can be achieved? I mean, Islam is scientific, right?

VERY common i mean we've gotta believe that it's in Hadiths i haven't got any articles but i heard it on TV. The earth is actually slowing down its movement around itself and it will come to a halt, then it will start turning the other side, so the sun rises from the west. i think if you go ogle it you're gonna find some articles.

It's not common. I've never even heard of that before. I've studied the Qur'an, read it time and time again and never saw a single verse that even suggests this. So I don't know what you're basing this idea on.

We listen and obey. It will happen.

I believed in the verse of Quran..'And he is the one who created the night, daylight, sun and the moon, all swimming in an orbit.' (Quran, The Prophets: 33).

when science used to claim ..Stars do not move but planets move around the Sun (that's what we used to read in our science books 9 years before)

I believed in sayings of Prophet (Eadith) about Coccyx http://www.quranandscience.com/sunnah-a-science/123--the-coccyx.html

when science used to reject it .."Most anatomy books wrongly state that the coccyx is normally fused in adults. In fact it has been shown[8][9] that the coccyx may consist of up to five separate bony segments, the most common configuration being two or three segments." potbelliediviedach and every miracle explained in the Quran and hadith before science knew it.

Even though Quran and hadiths are not book of science . it is book of guidance and signs to know your God.

Forget Muslim astronomers.

Atheist scientists will tell you:

1. That the Earth's rotation is slowing down.
2. Eventually it will stop.
3. Then, start rotating the other way, THUS sun rises from west.

Ask the Atheist, if you are truthful.

Yes it's true,

One day the sun will rise from the west - it is one of the signs of the end of the world.
"The day of the hour will not come until the sun rises from the west, if it rises and the people saw it they will all believe, when a time where nothing will be accepted anymore of believe the truth" (Prophet mu hammed (PBUH))

Seriously, darling? That's a belief?

Oh how silly. Of course there are no articles - none that are actually based on science and fact.

Oh, I wonder if you are waiting for the sun to rise from the West to convert to Islam..But it shall be too late, my friend. After that happens, it will be indeed too late. Conversion or repentance will no longer be accepted.
But since you know Islam is True, why delay?
?Say: O People of the Scripture! Come to an agreement between us and you: that we shall worship none but Allah, and that we shall ascribe no partner unto Him, and that none of us shall take others for lords beside Allah. And if they turn away, then say: Bear witness that we are they who have surrendered (unto Him). O People of the Scripture! Why will ye argue about Abraham, when the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed till after him?? 3:64-65
? In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The revelation of the Scripture is from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise.Lo! We have revealed the scripture unto thee(Muhammad) with truth; so worship Allah, making religion pure for Him(only). Surely pure religion is for Allah only. And those who choose protecting friends beside Him(say): We worship them only that they bring us near unto Allah. Lo! Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Lo! Allah guider not him who is a liar, an ingrate. If Allah had willed to choose a son, he could have chosen what he would of that which He hath created. Be He glorified! He is Allah, the One, the Absolute. He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He Maker night to succeed day, and He Maker day to succeed night, and He constraintThhe sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term. Is not He the Mighty, the Forgiver? He created you from one being, then from that(being) He made its mate; and He hath provided for you of cattle eight kinds. He created you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, in a three-fold gloom. Such is Allah, your Lord. His is the Sovereignty. There is no God save Him. How then are ye turned away?? Chapter XXXIX:1-6, The Holy Quran.

Peace, my friend.
