Merely counting a quintillion stars would take longer than the age of the universe, yet God created them, which shows His greatness.1
The splitting of the moon, a sign of the end, already happened in 1969 when people landed on the moon and brought back moon rocks.1
God's signature of 19 appears in the heavens, since the sun, moon, and earth realign every 19 years and Halley's comet returns every 76 years, which is 19 times 4.1, 2
God swears by the positions of the stars because they are in perfect positions and orbits and do not crash into one another, and their number is estimated at about a billion trillion.1, 2, 3
God deliberately designed the moon so its rotation equals its orbit around the earth, so people always see the same face, showing God's greatness and wisdom.1, 2, 3
God's description of the sun as a lamp and the moon as a light is consistent with the sun being a source of light and the moon a reflector.1, 2
God's precise system lets the rise and set of the moon and planets be known to fractions of minutes, so insisting on sighting the moon to fast Ramadan is foolish.1, 2, 3
The sun, moon, night, day, and sky are profound signs of God's greatness showing why we should worship God alone; Jesus had nothing to do with creating the sun.1, 2, 3
The alternation of night and day, the earth hanging in space, its tilted axis creating seasons, and its precise rotation tell us how great God is.1, 2, 3
The Quran teaches that God holds the earth, the sun, and all the galaxies in space, and without His holding they would topple.1, 2, 3
The specified days of fasting begin with the appearance of the new moon of the ninth month and end with the new moon of the tenth month.1, 2
The Quranic prophecy that the moon will split as the hour approaches was fulfilled in the early 1970s, when people went to the moon and brought back moon material.1, 2, 3, 4
So many creatures accepted the second offer that God made many of them stars, which keep precise orbits and timing as a sign of their submission.1, 2
Creation shows precision, like the moon's synchronized movement and the sun following God's laws in its exact orbit.1, 2
Our Sun is one of the dim stars, since a bright star must be at least a million times as bright.1
God alone created and controls the sun, moon, stars, and galaxies with precise accuracy, and no other entity, human or non-human, designed the universe.1, 2
The Quran and science teach that God designed the sun and moon to run with predictable precision, so the start of each lunar month, including Ramadan, can be calculated exactly in advance.1, 2
The Quran states that the sun, the moon, and the galaxies each float in their own orbits, matching modern science.1, 2
Submitters do not worship the moon, because God forbids prostrating before the sun or the moon and commands prostrating before the God who created them.1, 2
Because the lunar year is shorter than the solar year, Ramadan comes 10 to 12 days earlier each year, testing whether we fast in every season.1, 2
Sighting the crescent moon is unnecessary to begin fasting, since scientific calculation gives the new month, and one compares its start time with sunset.1, 2, 3
Examples of 19 in the universe are that the sun, moon, and earth line up in the same relative position every 19 years, and Halley's Comet returns every 76 years, which is 19 times 4.1, 2
God is not a man, an animal, a plant, an idol, a machine, or a heavenly body, because the maker of all things must be different from and greater than what He makes.1, 2
Because God made the sun and moon calculation devices and we can now compute moon phases precisely, physical sighting of the moon is not needed to set the start and end of Ramadan.1, 2
Because the lunar year is shorter than the solar year, Ramadan moves through the seasons, a design by God that tests whether we fast regardless of day length or temperature.1, 2
Physical sighting of the moon is not needed to start or end Ramadan, since God made the sun and moon calculation devices and we can determine moon phases precisely.1, 2
God prevents heavenly bodies from crashing onto the earth except by His command, and He fully controls the entry, speed, and landing of any meteorite that strikes.1, 2, 3
The sun, though millions of miles away, precisely maintains the temperature needed for life on earth, and God has committed the sun and moon to our service.1, 2
Abraham, in his youth, reflected on the stars, moon, and sun to learn about God and then denounced his people's idolatry.1, 2
God made the sun and the moon to serve as calculation devices, which is how we can know the timing of events like the solstice.1, 2, 3, 4
There is nothing wrong with noting the astronomical passing of a season or calendar event, as long as we attribute it to God.1
God made the stars to guide people through darkness on land and sea.1
God made the sun and moon each run in its own orbit for a set life span, and made them serve people as devices for counting years and calculating.1, 2, 3
The vast distances between stars, which make collisions between passing galaxies very unlikely, glorify God, Lord of the Universe.1
God gave geese navigation by the sun and stars long before man, and the Quran recorded star navigation over 1400 years before science discovered it.1, 2
The Quran states that the sun and moon each float in their own orbit, something school books taught correctly about the sun only recently.1, 2
Ramadan begins the day after a new moon that occurs before local sunset, and ends on the day the next new moon occurs before sunset.1, 2
God made the night and day, the sun and the moon, as signs and as a system for timing and for counting the years.1, 2
The creation of the heavens and earth is more awesome than human creation, and new stars are born every day while older ones disintegrate.1, 2
Each sunrise brings a new chance to repent, implore God, and grow closer to Him, so a believer should have hope in each new day.1, 2
