One of the miracles of the Quran is its scientific miracle. Miracles of the Qur’an are scientific contents and secrets that are stated in the Qur’an and were not known to mankind in the era of the revelation of the Qur’an and before that, and could not be acquired with the normal means that were at the disposal of mankind in the era of the revelation of the Qur’an. and the gradual progress of science, these contents and scientific secrets mentioned in some verses are revealed.
The appearance of such materials in the Holy Quran in fourteen centuries when mankind was not scientifically advanced and as a result was not able to provide such scientific information, can be considered as a scientific miracle of the Quran.
But people did not know about these secrets and materials until then, and over time and years later, due to the progress of science in various fields, especially meteorology, they have discovered these points, materials, secrets ans secrets of existence.
On the other hand, the expression of these contents by the Holy Qur’an, considering the dry climate and the descent of this heavenly book in that place and region, is remarkable, surprising and surprising.
Do you know, the weight of the cloud that is above the cold and we don’t even feel its existence is much heavier than what we imagine! Can you guess how many kilograms it weighs?
If we consider a piece of cloud with a radius of one kilometer, which is a small cloud that floats in the air without feeling its weight;
But it is surprising if we know that the weight of this cloud reaches more than 500 thousand kilograms (500 tons)…..
Clouds have a very high weight, for example, the cumulus cloud is the most common type of cloud, which is also considered a rain cloud and is formed two kilometers from the surface of the earth. It weighs between one hundred thousand and three hundred thousand tons (one to three billion kilograms). A cumulus cloud is equivalent to 6,268.75 million blue whales
1400 years ago, God mentioned the heavyness of clouds in the Holy Quran
It is written in Surah A’raf, verse 57
وَهُوَ الَّذِی یُرْسِلُ الرِّیَاحَ بُشْرًا بَیْنَ یَدَیْ رَحْمَتِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَقَلَّتْ سَحَابًا ثِقَالًا سُقْنَاهُ لِبَلَدٍ مَّیِّتٍ فَأَنزَلْنَا بِهِ الْمَاء فَأَخْرَجْنَا بِهِ مِن کُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ کَذَلِکَ نُخْرِجُ الْموْتَى لَعَلَّکُمْ تَذَکَّرُونَ
He is the One Who sends the winds in advance (rain) of His mercy until they carry the heavy burden (on their shoulders), at that time We send them to the lands of the dead and We send down (life-giving) water through it and with it We bring forth fruits of every kind (from the dark soil), and in this way (as We revived the dead lands) We will revive the dead (also in the Day of Judgment) so that you may remember (1).
It is written in Surah al-Raad, verse 12
هُوَ الَّذِی یُرِیکُمُ الْبَرْقَ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَیُنْشِئُ السَّحَابَ الثِّقَالَ
He is the one who shows you the electricity that is both a source of fear and hope and creates heavy clouds. (2)
In the above verses, the word sahab means (cloud) and (thaqal) means heavy, and this shows that the Holy Quran mentioned this scientific matter 1400 years ago.
