إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ الْكَوَاكِبِ

Indeed We have adorned the lowest heaven with the finery of the stars,

Scientific Point

God Almighty says in the above verse: "We adorned the lower heaven with stars," while the hypothesis that dominated the thoughts and scientists at that time said that only the upper heaven (the eighth heaven according to Ptolemy's hypothesis) was the sky of fixed stars.

However, as we know, the invalidity of this hypothesis has been proven and the Quran's failure to follow the famous incorrect hypothesis of that time is itself a living miracle of this heavenly book.

Another interesting point is that from the point of view of today's science, it is certain that the beautiful twinkling of the stars is due to the atmosphere that surrounds the Earth and makes them do this, and this is very appropriate with the expression "as-sama' al-dunya" (the lower heaven), but outside the Earth's atmosphere, the stars do not have the beautiful twinkling state.
