14 Scientific Miracles in the Qur'aan (Part 02)

These pulses were first detected by astronomers Jocelyn Bell Burnell and Antony Hewish in 1967. They observed these pulses as a series of sharp, regular bursts of radio waves coming from a specific point in the sky. This discovery was initially unexpected and led to the identification of pulsars as rapidly rotating neutron stars. So, the "sound of knocking" in this context was heard in 1967 when the pulsar phenomenon was first detected.

However in the Quran it stated already about them:
وَالسَّمَآءِ وَالطَّارِقِۙ
By the sky and the night comer
وَمَاۤ اَدۡرٰٮكَ مَا الطَّارِقُۙ
And what can make you know what is the night comer?
النَّجۡمُ الثَّاقِبُۙ
It is the piercing star
(Surah At-Tariq Verse 1-3)
The word طَّارِقِ translated by early Commentators of Quran as طَّارِقِ as such, taken for a name and left untranslated or as “Morning Star” “Bright Star” or as “Night comer.” While the literal meaning of طَّارِقِ is “one who knocks at the door.” The meaning “Night Comer” derived from it because in past times in Arabia the one who comes at night usually knocks the door as in the day time doors remained opened or no need of informing your arrival or entry.
Now come back to verses 1-3 of Surah Tariq. It gives three characteristics of that celestial object طَّارِق ِ. First is that it pulsates, and give the impression of knocking, beating. Second is that it is a star and lastly that it penetrates and pierces. Now the word “ثَاقِب” means piercing, opening holes, piercing and moving on.

One significant milestone in this field was the work of Sir Francis Galton, a British polymath, who conducted extensive research on fingerprints in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in 1892. Galton's studies, published in his book "Finger Prints," demonstrated the uniqueness and permanence of fingerprints, laying the foundation for the modern science of fingerprint identification.
However The Quran revealed over 1400 years ago, contains knowledge about the individuality and distinctiveness of fingerprints—a concept that was not scientifically understood until much later. This interpretation aligns with modern forensic science, which relies heavily on fingerprints for identification due to their unmatched uniqueness to each person.
اَيَحۡسَبُ الۡاِنۡسَانُ اَلَّنۡ نَّجۡمَعَ عِظَامَهٗؕ
بَلٰى قٰدِرِيۡنَ عَلٰٓى اَنۡ نُّسَوِّىَ بَنَانَهٗ
Does man think that We will not assemble his bones? Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips.
(Surah Al-Qiyamah Verse 3-4)

One significant advancement came in the late 19th century when German physiologist Max von Frey identified specialized nerve endings in the skin that responded to mechanical stimulation and were capable of transmitting pain signals. This laid the foundation for the understanding of nociceptors as specialized sensory receptors for pain.
Specifically, he identified specialized nerve endings in the skin in the late 19th century, around the 1890s.
But this concept was already stated in the Quran:
Indeed, those who disbelieve in Our verses - We will drive them into a fire. Every time their skins are roasted through, We will replace them with other skins so they may taste the punishment. Indeed, Allāh is ever Exalted in Might and Wise.
اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا بِاٰيٰتِنَا سَوۡفَ نُصۡلِيۡهِمۡ نَارًا ؕ كُلَّمَا نَضِجَتۡ جُلُوۡدُهُمۡ بَدَّلۡنٰهُمۡ جُلُوۡدًا غَيۡرَهَا لِيَذُوۡقُوا الۡعَذَابَ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَزِيۡزًا حَكِيۡمًا
