Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mujaahid" data-source="post: 7987613" data-attributes="member: 287099">In the following verses, Quran claims that mountains were set on the earth so that the earth never can shake when human being dwelt in it.(Quran- 21:31): And We have set on earth firm mountains, lest it should shake with them. (Quran-16:15): And he has cast the earth firm mountains lest it shake with you…(Quran-31:10): He created the heavens without supports that you can see, and has cast onto the earth firm mountains lest it shake with you…<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rolleyes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Rolleyes    :rolleyes:" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />It is clearly understood that Quranic author was completely ignorant about the geological reasoning for existence of mountains. He saw that mountains are huge and heavy. So, He (Allah) thought mountains actually prevent Shaking (Earthquake) of the earth. Fact is, this particular reason for existence of mountains is a direct contradiction with modern geological knowledge. Geology proves to us that movement of tectonic plates, or earthquake itself causes mountains to be formed.see the modern science difinition...Mountains are made up of earth and rock materials. The outermost layer  of the Earth or the Earth's crust is composed of six plates. When  two plates move or collide each other, vast land areas are uplifted,  resulting in the formation of mountains.1.<a href="http://www.mountain.org/education/subexplore/explore02.cfm" target="_blank">http://www.mountain.org/education/subexplore/explore02.cfm</a>2.<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain</a>3.<a href="http://www.buzzle.com/articles/how-are-mountains-formed.html" target="_blank">http://www.buzzle.com/articles/how-are-mountains-formed.html</a> Besides, we know very well that, every year several dozens of earthquakes happen on earth. Then what is the result of Allah’s promise? Can we believe that, Mountains are there to prevent earthquake?<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/D.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
