Whenever I read a research or a discovery, I realize immediately that the Quran has mentioned it in one way or another and this proves that everything is stated in the Quran. Let us contemplate, and praise Allah be he exalted……

A picture that shows the stars that are considered to be like faint and beautiful lamps in the sky, called brown dwarfs, it is about a millionth as bright as the sun, therefore scientists call it light bulbs. The NASA scientists say that these brown dwarfs are the lowest power stellar light bulbs in the sky.

When I was following the scientific news about the scientists' discovery of these beautiful bodies in the universe, something caught my eyes which is the expression that they used; light bulbs which means lamps. I realized that these scientists used this expression as they found a big similarity between the mechanisms of working of these bodies (and other stars) and that of the lamp. And here, it should be pointed that the Quran has preceded the scientists of NASA in launching this expression. God be he exalted says: (And We adorned the nearest (lowest) heaven with lamps (stars) to be an adornment as well as to guard (from the devils by using them as missiles against the devils). Such is the Decree of Him the All-Mighty, the All-Knower.) [Surat Fussilat, verse: 12], so Glory to God!
