The Science of High altitude

-

 

When we go to very high places — like mountains or airplanes — the oxygen levels drop. At high altitudes, our body breathes faster, and the chest muscles, including the diaphragm, work harder. This causes tightness in the chest (muscles strained).

If these muscles can’t move freely, the chest cavity can’t fully expand — the lungs can’t fill with enough air, leading to a constricted feeling and shortness of breath.This leads to a condition called hypoxia — insufficient oxygen reaching the body’s tissues due to reduced oxygen levels.

More than 1,447 years ago, the Quran described this exact phenomenon in two words — tight and constricted:

"…He makes his chest tight and constricted as if he were climbing into the sky…" (Quran 6:125)

The physical reality of a disbeliever who finds it difficult to accept the truth is compared to a person climbing to the extreme heights of mountains or ascending into the sky, who finds it extremely difficult to breathe due to the tightening and constriction of the chest.

“And whoever Allah wills to guide — He opens his chest to Islam; and whoever He wills to let go astray — He makes his chest tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky.”
(Qur’an 6:125)

The verse uses two precise Arabic words:

Ḥarajan (حَرَجًا) – tightness, difficulty.

Ḍayyiqan (ضَيِّقًا) – constricted, squeezed.

How I Left Porn for Allah|An Islamic Recovery Guide Introduction – The Shame of Sin vs the Sweetness of Leaving It for Allah There was a time in my life when I was only inches away from selling my Lord and His Hereafter for a few moments of forbidden pleasure — a step that could have dragged me into prostitution. A click, a glance, a touch — and it could have been over. The temptation was strong — the allure of semi-nude women who stirred my lust to disobey my Lord and commit masturbation and shameful deeds. I was on the verge of trading my Lord and my Hereafter for a fleeting, shameful sin. But then Allah intervened. He forbade me from shamelessness and reminded me of His command: “Indeed, Allah commands justice, good conduct, and giving to relatives, and forbids shamelessness (fahshā’), evil deeds (munkar), and transgression (baghy). He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded.” (Qur’an 16:90) Allah promised something far greater than the temporary pleasure of this world — t...

What lessons do we carry forward if our spirit is reborn into a new life?

  On the False Belief of Reincarnation or Rebirth The belief in reincarnation or rebirth is false and rejected in Islam. Allah says in the Qur’an : “If they were returned, they would certainly revert to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars.” (Sūrah al-An‘ām 6:28) And Allah says: “Until, when death comes to one of them, he says: ‘My Lord, send me back, that I might do righteousness in that which I left behind.’ No! It is only a word he is saying…” (Sūrah al-Mu’minūn 23:99–100) These verses clearly prove that there is no return to worldly life to correct mistakes. If a person were returned, he would repeat the same denial and sins . There is no lesson in reincarnation , only the repetition of the same mistakes. Guidance is accepted before death , not after witnessing the unseen.

The Holistic message of the holy Bible  Prophets of God commiting shameful deeds  Prophet Noah drank wine and laid nude in his tent Book of Genesis 9:20–23 (KJV) "And Noah began to be a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard: and he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness." So this, then, is how the sons of a drunk and naked prophet of God are said to have dealt with him—presented as a moral example for us, should we ever find ourselves confronting such an abominable figure. Imagine a prophet of God, the second father of humanity after the Flood, being reduced to such perversity. By Allah, this is nothing but a monstrous fabrication. Proph...
