The holy Quran never stated any architecture shape for the earth in a clear way or if it have a flat surface or a sloppy surface or a spherical surface, it stated that Allah has spread it out and make it easy for wandering and planting and life matters , and Allah never stated the movement of earth in a clear way but Allah said (27-88)"and thou shalt see the mountains, that thou supposest fixed, passing by like clouds -- God's handiwork, who has created everything very well. He is aware of the things you do".. everything above you is a sky , every thing below your feet is an earth. maybe dahaha means that Allah made it ready for life . And Allah knows best . if Allah sent the Quran tafseer with it ,then people would have mastered it and then threw it away and forgot it long time ago.
The Holy Quran made it clear that earth was:
1- Spherical.
2- Rotating around itself.
3- Is traveling in space.
We don't only have DAHAHA
دحاها. We also have KIFAATA
كفاتا (used for flying birds), TAQOOM
تقوم (used for moving firmly), WADA'A
وضع (used for moving something), MIHAADA
مهادا (used for rocking back and forth; science calls this
"Axial Tilt" for earth, which is what causes the seasonal changes).
And again, have Allah Almighty not DAHA the earth, it would not have been able to produce water and pasture. This clearly and indipsubably means that earth became balanced in its rotation around the sun, and cool enough and stable enough to where it now can support the life that we are living today.
The Noble Words that Allah Almighty used to describe earth are all ones that deal with motion. Why are you dismissing them? If people back then failed to understand it, or accept it, then that's there problem. Imam Bukhari said that he threw away
THOUSANDS OF HADITHS:
www.islamic-awareness.org/Hadith/bukhari.htmlDo we not have outside Bukhari this Hadith:
So it is quite probable that Prophet Muhammad did go indepth about the earth and its spherical shape, and its motion in space. But since many probably thought it was unbelievable and ridiculous, then Imam Bukhari and other Hadiths collectors didn't include them.
So maybe Imam Bukhari threw away the Hadiths that did speak about the motion of earth in space, because people refused to believe them. They would think that
we would feel the motion too if earth was in motion. Didn't even a doofus from today's salafies say this very exact thing today? Watch this video:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKSKUIjBiM0I would respond, in laymen's term, to the stupid salafies and others who use his type of argumentation to challenge science, by giving them the example of driving inside a closed car vs a motor cycle or a convertible car. If you wear a hat inside a closed car, then your hat will remain on your head even if you're going 100 miles per hour on the road.
However, if you're driving a convertible, and the top is down, then your hat will fly away. Your atmosphere inside the closed car is like our earth and its atmosphere today. Earth today rotates around itself at a speed of 1000 miles per hour. Yet, we don't feel it, because we are part of the motion. When we go outside earth in space, the motion changes, and if we re-enter atmosphere too fast, then the friction with the thicker air will cause us to overheat and burn. This is why asteroids burn up when they enter earth.
What gravity??And forget gravity!! If earth was spherical, then we would all fall off to space. After all, if you pour water on a spherical object, wouldn't it just drain down to the ground?? And if earth was rotating around itself fast, then it would throw us all off into space!!
So maybe the Hadiths that went into the details of earth's roundness and motion were thrown away, because the people just couldn't fathom them. Again, please visit:

www.answering-christianity.com/ac20.htm#linksAllah Almighty Promised to Reveal the Scientific Miracles:Another aspect for you to consider is that Allah Almighty Promised to reveal the Scientific Miracles of the Glorious Quran through the scientific discoveries that man will discover through Allah Almighty's Will:
"We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until it will become quite clear to them that it (THE QURAN) is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran, 41:53)"So if Allah Almighty chose to show you today that the earth is indeed spherical and is moving in space through NASA and other scientific agencies, and Allah Almighty chose to show you that this is indeed also in the Quran, as He Promised, then who are you to refuse this?
Please visit:
www.answering-christianity.com/sci_prophecy.htmSo even if the Hadiths are lacking, it isn't because the Glorious Quran doesn't mention that the earth is spherical and is in motion. But rather, because the people of that generation weren't ready for this type of knowledge. So they failed to see it. But as we advanced today, it became very clear to us. Again, Allah Almighty PROMISED this:
"We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until it will become quite clear to them that it (THE QURAN) is the truth...."Take care,
