The holy verses:
God be he exalted says: (So I swear by the afterglow of sunset; And by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness, And by the moon when it is at the full, you shall certainly travel from stage to stage) [Surat Al-Inshiqaq, verses: 16-19].
The explanation of the verses:
God be he blessed and exalted swears by the phenomenon of afterglow of sunset and this phenomenon is one of the most beautiful cosmic phenomena. God also swears by the night and whatever it gathers in its darkness and swears by the moon when it is at the full that people will certainly travel from stage to stage.
The scientific fact:
On July 20, 1969, two American astronauts, Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin traveled to the moon and it was the first time for man to land on the surface of the moon. They used in this journey a spacecraft that is like a metal plate then by the evolution of astronomy the spacecrafts has developed. So in each year scientists invent spacecrafts with much developed techniques. They even invented thousands of types of spacecrafts and the single spacecraft become consisting of several floors or layers.
The point of inimitability:
Through this holy verse: (you shall certainly travel from stage to stage), we can see a sign for the possibility of traveling of man to the moon especially that this verse come after mentioning the moon in the verse (And by the moon when it is at the full) and this sign is realized in the 20th century which indicates that the Quran is the book of Allah and that it coincides with the modern science.
