The Geological Concepts of Mountains in The Quran-el-Naggar

“The Geological Concepts of Mountains in The Qur’an” by the prominent geologist Dr. Zaghloul R. El-Naggar is a significant work in the field of scientific I’jaz (inimitability) of the Qur’an. The book meticulously examines Qur’anic verses mentioning mountains, particularly the description of them as “pegs” (Awtad) or “stabilizers” (Rawasi), and correlates these ancient descriptions with modern geological discoveries concerning plate tectonics and the role of mountain roots in stabilizing the Earth’s crust. El-Naggar argues that these precise geological allusions, revealed fourteen centuries ago, serve as profound evidence of the divine origin of the Qur’an, making it a key resource for faith and science integration and modern Qur’anic studies.
