3. SURAH AL-HIJR VERSE 16 وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِي السَّمَاء بُرُوجًا وَزَيَّنَّاهَا لِلنَّاظِرِين “ AND INDEED, WE HAVE PUT BURUJ (THE BIG STARS) IN THE HEAVEN AND WE HAVE BEAUTIFIED IT FOR THE BEHOLDERS”
4.
5. THE PERFECT ART The space above the clouds is full of stars, planets and meteorites. Each one of these is called a celestial body. Billions of these celestial bodies come together to form the giant collection of star systems we call galaxies.
16. “… and we have beautified it for the beholders.”

28. Galaxies are composed of billions of stars. Stars are big celestial bodies such as the Sun. There are about three trillion stars in the biggest galaxy. In a galaxy of an average size, there are about 200 to 300 billion stars , while there are about 100 billion stars in a small galaxy. The galaxy has arms made up of stars, gas and dust clouds. These arms spin around the galactic center at a speed of 330 miles per second (speed of sound).
33. OUR SOLAR SYSTEM In our Solar System, there are nine major planets with 61 satellites and countless asteroids, all revolving around a single star called the "Sun". The Sun is located at the heart of the Solar System.
36. When they fall, the destruction they cause varies according to their size. Our Earth is vulnerable to such a threat at every moment, but our Lord has created these celestial bodies in such a way that they are usually burned and destroyed in the atmosphere. Thus Allah shows His mercy and compassion for us as well as the protection.
38. The size of the visible Universe is now generally calculated to be 20 billion LIGHT YEARS across. We sit near the center of it. (the speed of light is 186,000 miles per second) The number of Galaxies traveling throughout the known Universe can be summarized as such: There are 60 Galaxies in existence for every person on earth right now.
39. This is the accurate view of what our Universe looks like from OUTSIDE the UNIVERSE!
40. Here you see clusters of individual GALAXIES joined in a way that looks like "threads" of material.
41. In terms of numbers of stars in the entire Universe, they are nearly 30 billion trillion stars which reside in 250 billion galaxies which dwell in 25 billion clusters of galaxies. Almost every star in a Galaxy is now considered to normally have planets encircling itself. In space, the closest galaxy is 2 million LIGHT YEARS away. The nearest star in our galaxy is only 4 LIGHT YEARS away. Hence, every galaxy in the universe is proof of the organized structure that everywhere exists.
42. This matchless plan and order in the universe certainly proves the existence of a Creator with infinite knowledge, might and wisdom, Who has created matter from nothing and Who controls and manages it incessantly. This Creator is Allah, the Lord of the heavens, the earth and all that is in between. The Order in the Skies
43. No power other than Allah is capable of creating billions of giant stars in an orderly universe. Allah created them and the laws to which they are subject. They all testify to His power and control over the entire universe.
44. This most elegant system of suns, planets, and comets could arise from the purpose and sovereignty of an intelligent and mighty being. He rules them all, not as a soul but as a sovereign Lord of all things, and because of His sovereignty He is called ‘Lord God Almighty’

The space above the clouds is full of stars, planets and meteorites Each one of these is called a celestial body. Billions of these celestial bodies come together to form the giant collection of star systems we call galaxies.
Galaxies are composed of billions of stars. (Stars are big celestial bodies such as the Sun. Neither the Earth nor the Moon is a star.) There are about three trillion stars in the biggest galaxy. In a galaxy of an average size, there are about 200 to 300 billion stars, while there are about 100 billion stars in a small galaxy.
The Milky Way is the name of the galaxy in which our Earth is located. The Milky Way galaxy in which we now live is a very different place to the cold gas from which it formed over 16 billion years ago. The Milky Way has the shape of a spiral; in fact, the shape of the galaxy is identical to a "pinwheel". Our Solar System is located a little more than one half of the way out from the centre of this spiral-shaped galaxy. The Sun (and our solar system) is revolving around the centre of the galaxy, and makes a complete revolution every 220 million years or so.
The Sun (and our solar system) is revolving around the center of the galaxy, and makes a complete revolution every 220 million years or so.
Stars and planets come into existence through the compression of the masses of gases and dust in space called "nebulae". Stars give off heat, light and energy. Apart from tiny stars, there are also very large stars. Surprisingly the Sun is not a major star as we believe to be. THE FORMATION OF STARS TAKE BILLION OF YEARS DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH MATERIAL IT CONTAINS AND ITS MASS.
the size of the visible Universe is now generally calculated to be 20 billion LIGHT YEARS across. We sit near the center of it. (SPEED OF LIGTH IS 186,000 miles per second) The number of Galaxies traveling throughout the known Universe can be summarized as such: There are 60 Galaxies in existence for every person on earth right now. So in other words, if galaxies could be "owned" (like houses) each of us could have 60 Galaxies given to us like someone giving every person on our planet 60 Frisbees.
Here you see clusters of individual GALAXIES joined in a way that looks like "threads" of material.
In terms of numbers of stars in the entire Universe (below), it is nearly 30 billion trillion stars here
By exposing the great plan, design and order prevalent in the universe, modern science has proved the existence of a Creator Who has created and rules all beings: that is, Allah. It is the plain truth that the universe is created and arranged by Allah. This most elegant system of suns, planets, and comets could arise from the purpose and sovereignty of an intelligent and mighty being…He rules them all, not as a soul but as a sovereign lord of all things, and because of His sovereignty He is commonly called "Lord God Almighty The divine order in this universe reveals the weakness of the materialistic belief of a universe that is a mass of ungoverned matter.
