Summary

This article explains that astronomy helps show the truth of Allah through signs in the horizons of the sky, such as stars, the sun and the moon, based on Surah Fussilat verse 53. Muslims are urged to reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth with a sound mind while remembering Allah in every condition, as described of the ulul albab in Surah Ali Imran verse 191. Sound faith must rest on certain proof, not merely on imitation or inheritance.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Kesimpulannya, seluruh umat Islam perlu bertafakur dengan merenung penciptaan segala planet, langit, bintang dan matahari.
