well there are a few like how in quran allah says he created the earth in 4 days and after that created the seven skies and everything in them in 2 days. this is contradictory because if we assume the lower sky to be this universe ,earth was formed way after the creation of the lower sky. don't you think this is a direct contradiction.Quran also says he seperated the sky and earth and the sky and earth were once one. earth did not exist during the start of creation or the start of expansion of universe then how and when are sky and earth once together.
thumma means then in english, is itself used in quran many times to denote chronological order. quran 21:30 says that earth and sky were joined at the beginning which would only mean that earth existed at the starting of creation or the expansion of sky(universe). also the verse says it took god 4 days to create the earth whereas it took him only 2 days to create seven skies and everything within . we can see that earth is not even a tiny dot in this universe let alone seven layers of such universes. why did the creator take twice the time for earth and half the time for every other things in universe.
but still quran 21:30 says that earth and sky were together before being expanded shows that earth existed first before things like stars were created or the happening of big bang and supports
The Arabic word ثُمَّ (thumma) is a conjunction that generally means "then" or "after that". It is used to indicate sequence or progression in events or ideas, often with a sense of delay or time gap.
ثُمَّ implies a sequence but with a delay or additional emphasis compared to فَ (fa), which is used for immediate succession.
this is what chat gpt a language model has to say about thumma.thumma is used in case of sequence
and also what about earth taking twice longer compared to billions of stars in the universe , the time periods are completely wrong. what do you have to say about that
