Page 277 - Allah's Miracles in the Qur'an

Harun Yahya

"to split," may be a reference to fission's dictionary meaning: the
process of splitting (the atom's nucleus). When this process takes place,
enormous amounts of energy are released.
The words in Surat al-An`am 95 are very wise in terms of their
meanings. The phenomena described in this verse bear a very close
resemblance to the splitting of the atom's nucleus in order to obtain
atomic energy. The verse may therefore be a reference to nuclear fission,
which was only made possible by twentieth-century technology. (Allah

knows best.)

Today, atomic
nucleus can be split
into smaller nuclei
by means of nuclear neutron
fission.
