The Quran describes the sun being 'wound round' and losing light. Astrophysics predicts our sun will eventually become a Red Giant and then a White Dwarf, effectively dying out.

The Quran consistently mentions hearing before sight. Embryology confirms that the inner ear develops before the eyes, and a fetus can hear sounds in the womb before it can see.

The Quran describes the embryo as 'Alaqah' (a leech-like substance, suspended thing, or blood clot). Modern embryology confirms the early embryo looks remarkably like a leech and obtains nutrients from the mother's blood, just like a leech.

The Quran connects the 'forelock' (nasiyah) to lying and sin. Modern neuroscience identifies the prefrontal cortex as the area responsible for decision making, planning, and lying.

The Quran states bones form first, then are clothed with flesh. Embryology indicates that cartilage models of bones form before the muscles migrate and wrap around them.

Deserts can bloom rapidly after rain. The 'resurrection' of dead land portrays the biological truth of dormant seeds waiting for water to germinate.

The Quran mentions Haman as a builder for Pharaoh. Hieroglyphs decoded recently identify 'Haman' as the head of quarry workers, a fact unknown at the time of the revelation.
