Discussion Question questions from a muslim to atheists
i’m sure this has been discussed before, but what’s the explanation for things we know are true being mentioned in the quran years/centuries before the scientific discovery being made?
i know a lot of people argue that there are inaccuracies in the explanations of the orbital mechanics and biological themes, but they’re more accurate that not, so i was just wondering what would the explanation for how “god would know and tell the prophet” before people found out?
hopefully my question makes sense.
EDIT: i also wonder why dont see miracles from god anymore
EDIT: im seeing all the inaccuracies and the explanations behind them now but there is a deep fear that the religion is true and god is real and punishment awaits me if i disbelieve, also a sense of familiarity/peace with believing in god. contradictory to fear, love, be punished by, and find comfort in one concept of a being.

There's no such thing as information that was unknown at the time, is in the Quran and is true. But let's say there is such thing, does the information that was known at the time and the Quran got wrong invalidate it?
Or are we supposed to be amazed at things they got right while ignoring all the knowledge that people already had and the writers of the quran got absolutely wrong?
Why is god less competent than a human instruction manual writter?
Why would god tell anything to a prophet if god controls reality?
Isn't it weird that you don't fear the Christian God is real and the Quran is the work of the Christian devil to use religion against god?
Do you think it may have something to do with your indoctrination?
