Have you ever heard anything about the galaxy and rainbows? There is also a place where the sun has not shone except for one hour.
Have you ever hear anything about the galaxy and rainbows? There is also a place where the sun has not shone except for one hour.
To answer that, let look through the message Heraclius wrote to Mu’awiyah, which was then directed to ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas.
The Message Heraclius Wrote To Mu’awiyah
Abul Qasim At-Tabarani narrated on the authority of ‘ Abdul Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah bless him) that Heraclius wrote to Mu’awiyah (may Allah bless him) and said, ” If there remains among them anything of Prophethood, then he will inform me about whatever I ask them.”
So he wrote to him, asking him about the galaxy and about rainbows and about a place on which the sun has not shone except for one hour.
When the Messenger reached Mu’awiyah with the letter, he said, “This is a thing about which I did not think that I would be asked before today.” He asked, ” Who can answer this?” It was said, ” ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas.”
So Mu’awiyah (may Allah bless him) folded up Heraclius’ message and sent it to ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah bless him) and he ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah bless him) wrote (back) to him, ”The rainbow is a protection for the people of the Earth from Hooding and the galaxy is the door to the heaven, from which the Earth is separated.
As for the place on which the sun has not shone except for an hour of the daytime, it is that which lies beneath the sea that was parted for the Children of Israel.” – Narrated by At-Tabarani in Al-Kabeer ( 10/244).
In The Creation Of The Heavens And The Earth
Allah, Most High, says, ( Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the Earth, and in the alternation of night and day, and the ships which sail through the sea with that which is of use to mankind, and the water (rain) which Allah sends down from the sky and makes the Earth alive therewith after its death, and the moving (living) creatures of all kinds that He has scattered therein, and in the veering of winds and clouds which are held between the sky and the Earth, are indeed Ayat (proofs, evidence, signs, etc.) for people of understanding. ) (Soorah AI-Baqarah 2: 164)
Allah Creates The Cloud, The Galaxy And The Rambow
Imam Ahmad narrated on the authority of Yazeed Ibn Haroon, who in turn reported on the authority of Ibraheem Ibn Sa’d, who reported from his father, who in turn reported on the authority of one of the Shaikhs of Banu Ghifar that he said, ” I heard the Messenger of Allah (may He be glorified) says, ‘Verily, Allah creates the cloud and He speaks in the best way and laughs in the best way,.” – This is an authentic hadeeth narrated by Imam Ahmad (23 174).
Malik narrated on the authority of ‘Abdullah Ibn Az-Zubair that whenever he heard thunder, he would stop speaking and then he would say, “Glory be to Him Whose praises the thunder glorifies, as do the angels from fear of Him.” – Narrated by Imam Malik in AI-Muwatta’ (Book 56, Number 56.11.26)
Imam Ahmad narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (may Allah bless him) that the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said, “Your Lord said, ‘If My slaves were to obey Me, I would send down rain to them at night and I would send down the sun upon them during the daytime and I would never let them hear the sound of thunder,. ” – Narrated by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad (2/359).
Conclusion
In short, as explained in ‘Al-bidayatu Wahanihayah’ Heraclius wrote a letter Mu’awiyah asking him to explain what he heard from the Prophet (PBUH) about the galaxy and rainbows. However, Mu’awiyah couldn’t give the answer and he directed the letter to ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas. Who then answer the question.
He wrote back with the message ‘The rainbow is a protection for the people of the Earth from Hooding and the galaxy is the door to the heaven, from which the Earth is separated.’
And Allah knows best.
