This is a marvelous
picture of star explosion taken by Hubble Space Telescope; the star is
called SN 1987A. It is one of the greatest cosmic explosions and is
referred to as supernovas. It is 163000 light- years away and it
exploded 161000 years ago, but it was only until 1987 that the explosion
was seen when its light reached us. Astronomers say that the diameter
round the explosion was 20000 light-years. A light-year is almost 9.5
million million Kilometers. They also confirm that the true location of
this star is currently unknown and that specifying it requires extremely
intricate calculations. In front of such a great sight, we express our
humility to Allah and can’t say anything but All Glory to Allah, the
Creator of this universe, who not only knows the settings of the stars
but also calls them to witness:
“Furthermore I call
To witness the setting
Of the Stars,
And that is indeed
A mighty adjuration
If ye but knew”Waqi’a or the Inevitable event: 75-76 (ibid)
