Underwater Volcanic Eruption

There are many mentioned discoveries in Qur’an, here is another discovery which Confirm that ocean depth is aflame…….

Few days ago, scientists had discovered a Volcanic Eruption “In Action” in depth of Pacific Ocean, they say that this volcano was caused by long split 2500 meterbeneath sea surface. There was what is looks like the big bang as magma was erupted and  accumulated to forming flaming cloud that arise 250 meter above the ocean  floor . It significantly heats water. {1}

Scientists confirm that these eruptions are continuously repeated and it lasts for a long time. Therefore any observer might feel as if he is in front of flaming sea.

When any one of us reads about this, he or she must remember the koranic verse. God says: (And by the heated sea) (At-Tur – verse 6) which means aflame and heated .  in Al – Moheet dictionary, Arabs says:  to fire up  the oven is to heat it  and in another meaning to raise its temperature , here  we can realize that god swear by the fired sea for a great wisdom  as if he wants to bring scientists  attention to the  reality of that sea as an aflame sea , so they have to realize the reality of Qur’an  who told you about this discovery. So god says at the end of Sûrat At-Tûr (Or do they say: “He (Muhammad) has forged it (this Qur’ân)?” Nay! They believe not .Let them then produce a recital like unto it (the Qur’ân) if they are truthful.) {At-Tûr – verse 33, 34}

Therefore, we have to ask a question, is the Qur’an a scientific facts and science book or it is a legends and fables book?
