The word "zilzaal" in Arabic means
earthquake, or tremors, and the word "athqaalahaa" means
"charges, heavy burdens." When one considers the above verses in the
light of the first meaning, it can be seen that reference is being made to an
important scientific fact about earthquakes. Surat – Az – Zilzal mentions the Earth disgorging its charges.
Indeed, as a result of research in recent years, it has been realized that
there are heavy metals at the center of the Earth, and that these appear as a
result of movements on the Earth's surface. According to geologists'
calculations, as the Earth cooled, heavy and dense substances sank to its
center, while lighter ones rose to the surface. For that reason, the Earth's
crust consists of the least heaviest substances (basalt and granite rocks),
while heavy metals (nickel and iron) are found in the core. As a result, the
subsurface, which consists of molten metals, is made of a material that is much
heavier and denser than the surface. During earthquakes, the heavy substances
below the surface have an opportunity to rise, and the Earth thus disgorges its
charges, as revealed in the Quran. Moreover, those regions where metal reserves
are most concentrated are also those with the greatest volcanic activity. These
scientific findings, which emerged only recently, and as a result of
wide-ranging research, are just some of the scientific facts indicated by Allah
in the Quran. [ 2 ]
