Professor Alfred Kroner who is one of the world’s most famous geologists.
Professor Korner, so it seemed to us, has a special talent of being evasive. For example, we asked him to describe the geological conditions of Arabia. ‘Was Arabia full of orchards and rivers?’ He said, During the Snow Age. And it is further known that the North Polar icebergs are slowly moving southwards. When those polar icebergs become relatively close to the Arabian Peninsula, the weather will change and Arabia will become one of the greenest and   wettest parts of the world. We asked him: ‘Will Arabia become the land of orchards and rivers?’ He said: Yes, it is a scientific fact.

This astonished us, and we wondered how he could state this as a scientific fact while it was related to the future and we asked: ‘Why?’ He said: Because the new Snow Age has actually started. And we can see the snow scrawling once again from the North Pole southwards. In fact, the polar snow is now on the way to get closer to the Arabian Peninsula. We can see the signs of this in the snow blizzards striking the northern parts of Europe and America every winter. Scientists have other signs and information proving the actual beginning of another Snow Age. It is a scientific fact. So we said to him: ‘What you have just mentioned has only been known to scientists after a long series of discoveries and with the help of specialized instruments. But we have already found this mentioned by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) 1400 years ago. He said in a Hadith transmitted by Saheeh Muslim:

         "The last Hour will not come upon us until the lands of the Arabs are once again
             pasture lands and filled with rivers."

At this point we asked Professor Kroner: ‘Who told the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), that the lands of the Arabs were once filled with orchards and rivers?’ He immediately replied: ‘The Romans’. This reminded me of Professor Kroner’s evasive ability. We asked him another question, we said to him: ‘But who informed the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), that the lands of the Arabs would one again become pasturelands and be filled with rivers?’. Professor Kroner becomes evasive if embarrassed. But whenever he was faced with the truth, he is courageous enough to state his opinion frankly and thus he replied: This could have been known to him only through revelation from above.

Finally, after our discussions with him, he made the following comments:

If you combine all these and you combine all these statements that are being made in the Qur’aan in terms that relate to the earth and the formation of the earth and science in general, you can basically say that statements made there in many ways are true. They can now be confirmed by scientific methods, and in a way you can say that the Qur’aan is a simple science text book for the simple man, and that many of the statements made in there at that time could not be proven but that modern scientific methods are now in a position to prove what Muhammad said 1400 years ago.

Allah confirms in His Book that:

"This is no less than reminder to (all), the worlds. And you shall certainly know the truth of it all (all) after a while" (Qur’aan 38:87-88)
