The link between the Seven Heavens and the scientific classes

Most of the ancient commentators did not associate the "seven heavens" with the atmospheric layers, as the latter were not yet discovered. Rather, they argued that the seven heavens were created upper worlds, separate, above each other, and each has a population and a divine command.

The link between the Seven Heavens and the scientific classes Most of the ancient commentators did not associate the "seven heavens" with the atmospheric layers, as the latter were not yet discovered. Rather, they argued that the seven heavens were created upper worlds, separate, above each other, each with a population and a divine command, as stated by the Almighty: And He made them seven heavens in two days, and inspired in every heaven her command. In some monuments it has been said that between each sky there is a 500-year journey, which is a suspended narrative that is understood in the context of the unseen rather than the physics of the witnessed world. However, some commentators (such as Fakhr al-Din al-Razi, al-Qortubi, etc.) have pointed out that each sky has characteristics, functions, and populations, such as the male angels, which may be understood as a kind of functional or structural differentiation, although not up to the contemporary scientific definition. Modern scientific interpretation has attempted to link the seven heavens to the physical layers of the atmosphere, such as: 1) Tropospheric 2) Stratosphere 3) Mesosphere 4) Thermosphere 5) Exosphere 6) Magnetic field surrounding the earth 7) Geocorona layer Some contemporary researchers may argue that these layers, along with the surrounding space, represent a precise regulation of the protection of life on Earth, and correspond to the concept of "seven heavens" in terms of multiplicity, differentiation and vital functions. Integrative Notes: Narratives that speak of Jibril's permission in every sky during the constellations relate to occult worlds, not to what is seen by telescopes and observatories. The Qur'an links the "seven heavens" in many places to a divine command entrusted to them, which opens the door to scientific interpretation - without certainty - to understand the exact functions of each, especially in light of the accelerating discoveries about the universe. Yes, what I am referring to in the issue of the expansion of the atmosphere beyond the moon, based on the geocorona, is already a recent scientific discovery (via NASA’s SOHO mission), and reinforces the proposition that what we consider “heaven” encompasses a much wider spectrum than we previously thought. This supports the scientific explanation of the verse “and make the moon a light” [Noah: 16], that the moon is located within one of the seven heavens, not. A proposal to distribute the "Seven Heavens" in the light of modern scientific data: First: The Distribution Rule We need an objective scientific standard, for the distribution of the Seven Heavens is consistent with: 4. Vertical ascending order from ground to sky. 5. The presence of physical properties or different fields (gaseous, radioactive, magnetic...). 6. The fact that each heaven is distinct from the other (as stated in the verse Seven heavens in two days and revealed in each sky its command [Chapter: 12]). Important Notes: 1. The presence of the moon within the geocorona disproves the belief that the moon exists outside the "heaven", and asserts that it is within its range. 2. "Heaven" in the verse does not only mean the atmosphere, but includes the entire Earth's protective system (magnetosphere is part of it, discovered in 1958). Scientific Miracle: The Quran describes the sky as an integrated system (ceiling conservation), while science has revealed its details recently: Magnitosvir. The role of gravity in atmospheric conservation was confirmed in the 20th century. An example of an application: ""We made the sky a preserved roof"" includes: Ceiling: Atmosphere and upper layers (even magnetospheric). Save: Magnetospheric repels radiation. Ozone protects against ultraviolet radiation. Gravity prevents the escape of air. This is a deeper explanation than just limiting the verse to the atmosphere." 1. These heavens are related to the lower heavens, while the upper heavens are most likely to be above the whole cosmic system, and appear only in the context of the oracle, or in talking about the throne. Conclusion: My best suggestion is to redefine the seven heavens as: Graded levels from Earth to the cosmic gravity boundary. * Each sky represents a distinct scientific space, in which specific functions are carried out. The lowest heaven is the layer closest to us, including clouds, stars and meteors, and the seventh heaven is the highest boundary of earthly control. Scientific explanation: Earth's atmosphere: composition, layers, roles Say: "Do you disbelieve in Him Who created the earth in two days and make equals for Him, that is the Lord of the worlds? The whole verse refers to the creation of the earth and its atmosphere. * "Seven Heavens were destroyed." [Chapter: 12], a reference to the creation of the Earth's atmosphere. — Source: Published on Dr. Mohammed Bourbab's Facebook page on 2025-08-12 https://www.facebook.com/bourbab.m/posts/pfbid032RJLur3YvBj27JUtpiE2zS7mCJcVZHMkik6FFv9kbfYrEQVd2pJ9kwck8GS5r9ccl
