The Earth is the Center of the Universe as Recorded in the Hidden Book—will they not then Believe?
In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful. Prayers of forgiveness and peace be upon my grandfather, Muhammad, the messenger of Allah, and his pure family, and upon all those who stand up for Allah, The One, The All-Subduer. May Allah’s peace be upon my beloved supporters (Al-Ansar), who give glad tidings of the advent of the Awaited Mahdi and engage with people through the true Clarifying Statements of the Reminder (the Great Qur’an), warning them of the passing of Planet Saqar (Nibiru)—a warning for whoever among them wills to go forth or remain behind.
O honorable seeker of truth, may Allah keep both me and you, and all Muslims, steadfast upon the Straight Path. Regarding your view that water descends from the heavens, come then, let us first learn where the boundaries of the heavens begin, starting from the nearest heaven to Earth. Therein you shall find the answer in the decisive verses of the Book (the Qur'an), in the saying of Allah, The Exalted:
وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ السَّعِيرِ (5)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Mulk, 67:5]
This means that the stars, which are the celestial adornments of the lowest heaven, have been placed below it by Allah. Do you then believe that rain descends from the heaven above the stars? Or do you think that water comes from other planets near the Earth? Bring forth your proof, if you are truthful.
O man, do you not know that an airplane flying above the clouds remains dry while the sky is raining, for the rain does not reach it as long as it remains above the rain-bearing clouds? Verily, rain does not come from outside the Earth’s atmosphere, for the causes of rainfall originate from the Earth itself: from the evaporation of the seas upon the Earth, the winds, and the formation of clouds. Thus, the Earth’s water originates from the Earth itself and does not come from another planet. That is why Allah, The Exalted, said:
وَالْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ دَحَاهَا (30) أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَاءَهَا وَمَرْعَاهَا (31)
[Qur’an, Surah: an-Nazi`at, 79:30-31]
As for whether Mother Earth is truly the center of the cosmic explosion (the Big Bang)? Yet, by reason and logic, the first planet to be formed should be the Mother Planet, even before the formation of the heavens and their adornments. And you will find the answer to be that the first formed planet was Mother Earth; Allah, The Exalted, said:
قُلْ أَئِنَّكُمْ لَتَكْفُرُونَ بِالَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ وَتَجْعَلُونَ لَهُ أَنْدَادًا ذَلِكَ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ (9) وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا وَبَارَكَ فِيهَا وَقَدَّرَ فِيهَا أَقْوَاتَهَا فِي أَرْبَعَةِ أَيَّامٍ سَوَاءً لِلسَّائِلِينَ (10) ثُمَّ اسْتَوَى إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَهِيَ دُخَانٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَلِلْأَرْضِ ائْتِيَا طَوْعًا أَوْ كَرْهًا قَالَتَا أَتَيْنَا طَائِعِينَ (11) فَقَضَاهُنَّ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ وَأَوْحَى فِي كُلِّ سَمَاءٍ أَمْرَهَا وَزَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَحِفْظًا ذَلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ (12)
[Qur’an, Surah: Fussilat, 41:9-12]
Thus, what is the secret behind the Earth having been formed before the heavens and before they were adorned with stars and planets? It is because the Mother Earth is the center of the cosmic rupture. And according to science, reason, and logic, the secret of the Cosmic Center of Gravity must lie within the Mother Planet itself. Verily, the Mother Planet is not counted among the seven earths; rather, it stands at their midst, while the seven earths lie below it. That is why Allah, The Exalted, said:
لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ (26) وَلَوْ أَنَّمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ أَقْلَامٌ وَالْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَاتُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ (27) مَا خَلْقُكُمْ وَلَا بَعْثُكُمْ إِلَّا كَنَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ بَصِيرٌ (28) أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يُولِجُ اللَّيْلَ فِي النَّهَارِ وَيُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِي اللَّيْلِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ كُلٌّ يَجْرِي إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ (29) ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَأَنَّ مَا يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِهِ الْبَاطِلُ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيرُ (30)
[Qur’an, Surah: Luqman, 31:26-30]
From these verses, we infer the saying of Allah, The Exalted:
وَلَوْ أَنَّمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ أَقْلَامٌ وَالْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَاتُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ (27)
[Qur’an, Surah: Luqman, 31:27]
As for the apparent meaning of this verse, it speaks of the Words of Allah, that is, His absolute capabilities, affirming that His capabilities have neither limits nor restrictions, for Allah is Most Capable of doing all things with no end. Even if all the trees on Earth were turned into pens and its sea into ink, writing that Allah is capable of doing this and capable of doing that, the sea of the Earth would run out before the Words of His capabilities could ever be exhausted, Exalted is He. This is because Allah’s capabilities have neither limits nor restrictions. Even if Allah were to provide the seven earths below the Earth with seven more seas, the Words of Allah would never be exhausted, Glorified and Highly Exalted is He. Therefore, from this verse, we infer the location of the seven earths: they exist below our Earth, as indicated by the saying of Allah, The Exalted:
وَالْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَاتُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ (27)
[Qur’an, Surah: Luqman, 31:27]
Perhaps the seeker of truth wishes to interrupt me and say: “Isn’t there any other verse that is more clear to confirm that the seven earths are indeed below our Earth?” We shall then let the answer come directly from the Lord Himself, from the decisive verses of His Book:
اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ وَمِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا (12)
[Qur’an, Surah: at-Talaq, 65:12]
And what is meant by the term “Command” that descends from Allah, The Exalted? You find the answer in the decisive verses of the Book:
فَاصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ (94)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Hijr, 15:94]
Therefore, the Command is the command of the Great Qur’an itself, descending upon the seal of the Prophets and Messengers at the center of the center (*Kaaba is the central point of the Earth). Thus, our Earth is not included in the number of the seven earths, for the seven earths are suspended in space below the Mother Earth. That is why Allah, The Exalted, said:
اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ وَمِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا (12)
[Qur’an, Surah: at-Talaq, 65:12]
And since this fact is revealed in the decisive verses of the Book, the people of knowledge will find it manifested in reality. Allah had disclosed it to them long before they came to discover it themselves at the End of Days. For this, Allah, The Exalted, addresses them with this argument rooted in reality, saying:
لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا (12)
[Qur’an, Surah: at-Talaq, 65:12]
And they shall surely come to know the truth on the day when Planet Saqar passes up from below the seven earths. Although they already recognize the existence of seven earths below our Earth, they detest the truth. And they shall surely come to know what (evil) fate they will meet. Indeed, the (best) outcome is for the pious. Peace be upon the Messengers, and all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
And perhaps one of the questioners wishes to interrupt me, saying: “Hold on, Nasser Muhammad, do not finish this statement before you bring forth a clear and manifest proof that the secret of the Cosmic Center of Gravity indeed lies within the Mother Earth which is inhabited by both mankind and Jinn.” We shall then let the answer come directly from the Lord Himself, from the decisive verses of the Book. Allah, The Exalted, said:
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ أَنْ تَزُولَا وَلَئِنْ زَالَتَا إِنْ أَمْسَكَهُمَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَلِيمًا غَفُورًا (41)
[Qur’an, Surah: Fatir, 35:41]
Meaning: Allah holds the seven heavens and their celestial adornments, as well as the seven earths and their moons, lest they converge toward the Cosmic Center of Gravity and fall upon the Mother Earth, the center of the cosmic rupture.
And perhaps one of the questioners wishes to say: “What is your clear and manifest proof through the decisive verses of the Great Qur’an that Allah is referring to the heavens falling upon the Earth inhabited by mankind? Perhaps He is referring to a planet other than the Earth of mankind.” We shall then let the answer come directly from the Lord Himself, from the decisive verses of the Book. Allah, The Exalted, said:
وَيُمْسِكُ السَّمَاءَ أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ (65)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Hajj, 22:65]
Verily, Allah is referring to the falling of the heavens upon the Earth that contains the Cosmic Center of Gravity, namely the Earth inhabited by mankind. Indeed, were it not for Allah’s mercy toward His righteous servants, the heavens would have fallen down on the Earth, the Cosmic Center of Gravity—except by His leave. That is why Allah, The Exalted, said:
وَيُمْسِكُ السَّمَاءَ أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ (65)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Hajj, 22:65]
O seeker of truth, we have brought you the clear and manifest proof from the decisive verses of the Book in answer to your question, as a reminder for those endowed with understanding. Yet, those who follow blindly will not take heed, as whenever people go astray, they follow them into error. Rather, those endowed with understanding are the ones who take heed; they judge matters with their intellects, then follow the truth from their Lord if it becomes clear to them—after deep reflection and contemplation—that it speaks the truth and guides to a straight path.
But as for the people of Hell, those who blindly follow others, they are a people who do not reason. Rather, they imitate their ancestors without using their minds at all. Therefore, when the truth becomes fully manifest then (on the Judgement Day) and they are led to the path of Hell, they will realize that the cause of their misguidance was that they did not use reason and logic to examine the ways of their ancestors. Therefore, they will say:
وَقَالُوا لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِي أَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ (10)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Mulk, 67:10]
Indeed, by Allah, besides whom there is no god, the Imam Mahdi’s exposition of the Qur’an challenges the intellect. No rational person reflects upon it while using his reason except that his intellect submits to the truth from his Lord and affirms it, unless he chooses to defy his own reason. And whoever defies his reason has deviated from the truth after his intellect had acknowledged it.
Allah, The Exalted, said:
فَلَمَّا زَاغُوا أَزَاغَ اللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ (5)
[Qur’an, Surah: as-Saff, 61:5]
And Allah, The Exalted, said:
وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُضِلَّ قَوْمًا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَاهُمْ حَتَّى يُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ مَا يَتَّقُونَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ (115)
[Qur’an, Surah: at-Taubah, 9:115]
And Allah, The Exalted, said:
وَيُمْسِكُ السَّمَاءَ أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ (65)
[Qur’an, Surah: al-Hajj, 22:65]
Peace be upon the Messengers, and all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds...
Your brother, the Imam Mahdi Nasser Muhammad Al-Yamani.
