When the Moon splits

The Moon. At the time Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, other smaller planetary bodies were also growing. One of these hit earth late in Earth's growth process, blowing out rocky debris then so on son and so forth.....

Do you think that the Moon would look just the same in the night sky 4.5 billion years ago?

The answer to that is actually NO. During the time the earth was still new and evolving, the Moon was so close Earth, and you would think that it was the oddest thing in the sky. Unfortunately no human being was ever heard to have seen what it looked like at the time. To bad...it would have been a pretty sight.

Theologians have found that many of the past pagan-worshippers such as the Egyptians were known to worship the Sun. Do you think if the Moon was so big in the sky they would probably be worshiping the Moon instead?

I mean think about it. Where would human beings be without proper guidance from it's Creator. We would probably be caught worship everything else instead of worshiping the one True God that created it all. How lucky we are to be alive at such a time whereby the religion which teaches it all is finished and is compiled nicely. Only left for us to read and reflect on it.

For those who is as lucky as me. Let's all be thankful to God that we are alive today not to be a strayed.

Alhamdulillah. Syukur ke hadrat Illahi.....

On the occasion of a solar eclipse the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam would perform extremely lengthy rakaats and inhale deep breaths whilst sobbing, "Oh Allah did you not vow not to punish them whilst I was amongst them and whilst they begged for forgiveness? "Oh Allah we beseech you for forgiveness!"
( Shamaa'il)
