Our Agenda
In this presentation we will demonstrate the
    following points:
1. The aim of the presentation.
2. What is gravity?
3. Can we see gravity?
4. Feeling the effect of gravity.
5. Absence of gravity.
6. Gravity around earth.
7. Gravity and light.

What is the aim of this presentation?
This presentation has an aim to spread
    culture of the scientific miracle
       in the Qur'an and Sunnah
           to demonstrate the

   Tolerance of Islam
to prove that this religion is away from
      fanaticism and ignorance.
What is Gravity?
• Gravity or gravitation is a natural phenomenon by
  which objects with mass attract one another.
• Also it is a force that causes things to fall when they
  are dropped.The force of gravity gives things their
  weight.
• Every object has its own force of gravity.

• Gravity depends on the amount of material that
  makes up an object. The more material an object has,
  the stronger is its force of gravity. The force of gravity
  between two objects decreases as the objects get
  farther apart.
Isaac Newton
•Was the first one to discover the law of gravity in the 17th century.

•He stated that :any two objects or particles having nonzero mass,
 the force of gravity tends to attract them toward each other.

•Gravity operates on objects of all sizes, from subatomic particles
to clusters of galaxies. It also operates over all distances, no
matter how small or great.
Can we see gravity?
No, we can’t see gravity but
      we can feel it.
How can we feel the effect of
         gravity?
When a man wants to parachute out of a
 plane he falls down towards the ground
           because of gravity.

When we descend down                           But we feel tired when
  we don’t feel tired                              we ascend up




            Walking on earth is the natural movement
What happens in case of absence
          of Gravity?
Life on earth is impossible without Gravity




                      A big mess
          is the only description of our earth
             in case of absence of Gravity.
Is gravity the same over the surface of the Earth?



                     No
It turns out that in some places you will feel
 slightly heavier than others. The next map will
 show us in exaggerated highs and lows where
the gravitational field of earth is relatively strong
                      and weak.
• A low spot can be seen just off the coast of
  India, while a relative high occurs in the South Pacific
  Ocean.
• The cause of these irregularities is unknown since
  present surface features do not appear dominant.
• Scientists hypothesize that factors that are more
  important lay in deep underground structures and
  may be related to the earth's appearance in the
  distant past.
Is light affected by gravity?

           Yes
Light is affected by gravity, but not in its speed.
 General relativity gives two effects of gravity on light.
            1                               2

It can bend light (which     It can change the energy of
   includes effects such as      light by shifting the
                                 frequency of the light
   gravitational lensing) by
                                 (gravitational redshift) not
   warping space so that         by changing light speed.
   what the light beam sees
   as "straight" is not
   straight to an outside
   observer.
           The speed of light is still constant.
What about Gravity and astronomy?
Astronomers say that all the planets
 have gravity that attracts the nearby bodies
                       and
      the force of gravity is proportional
           to the mass of this planet
                      and
the distance between it and the bodies that it
                     attracts
So that, all the cosmic bodies like the sun, moon,
       planets, stars, and cosmic dust, etc..
            all have gravitational fields
Earth's gravity keeps the moon on its path
             around the Earth.
Is the Gravity equal in all planets?

                No
The moon has its own gravity, but it is not as
 strong as that of Earth. That is why astronauts
 on the moon can carry equipment that would
 be too heavy to carry on Earth.
On Earth, you might be able to jump 3 feet
 (almost 1 meter). On the moon, which has low
 gravity, you might jump 20 feet (6 meters). On
 Jupiter, which has high gravity, you could jump
 only 14 inches (35 centimeters).



On Earth                                 On Jupiter



                   On the moon
Fun in space




An astronaut who finds juggling fruit is easy
  without Earth's gravity pulling it down.
Therefore the earth has a gravity field that
  attracts people to it and because of this
gravity the objects are settled on the surface
      of the earth even the atmosphere.
This means that if there wasn't a
    gravitational field for the earth, the
atmosphere would have escaped and faded
         away in the outer space.
  Hence, the gravity is the reason for the
         stability of life on earth.
But, what does
religion of Islam say about
          Gravity?
In the holy Qur’an Allah refers to this
phenomenon in clear signs as He Almighty
                   says:
(Allah, it is He Who has made for you
         the earth as a dwelling place
  and the sky as a canopy, and has given you
shape and made your shapes good (looking)
  and has provided you with good things.
 That is Allah, your Lord: so blessed be Allah,
            the Lord of the ‘Âlamîn
     (mankind, jinn and all that exists)).
           [Sûrat Ghafir, verse: 64]
The explanation of the verse

   Almighty God talks about his graces that He
             bestowed upon his people.
   From these graces that He be exalted made
        the earth settled for its inhabitants
          and made the sky as a canopy.
He also created mankind in the best shape and He
          provided them with good things.
The point of inimitability

Through Gods saying: (Allah, it is He Who has
 made for you the earth as a dwelling place), we
   notice that God be He exalted told us about
  the grace of settling the earth and settling the
               objects on its surface.
And the word (dwelling) refers to the stability of
 creatures on the earth which is an indication to
    the gravity and that is what scientists have
                    discovered.
Allah Almighty Says:

  (And on the earth are signs for
those who have Faith with certainty.

   (Sûrat Az-Zariyat- verse 20)
In the Qur’an Allah talks to all mankind
     (Muslims and non Muslims), for
Muslims to increase their faith and to fix
 them on Islam and for non Muslims to
guide them to the straight way of Allah
  to lead them to heaven where is the
              eternity life.
Thanks Allah for your Graces
