<b>SURA: 70: THE WAYS OF ASCENT</b>

<b>A questioner questioned concerning the doom about to fall

Upon the disbelievers, which none can repel,

From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways

Whereby the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him

in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years.</b> 70:1-4

<b><i>How many light years does it take for the angels and the Spirit to reach Allah?</i> </b>
By Adnan Ahmad - LONDON UK



According to <b>Holy Qur’an Surah Al Ma’arij - The Ways of Ascent</b> Chapter 70 verse 4:

<b>“The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a day the measure is 50,000
years”</b>


According to science light travels <b>186,000</b> miles per second, and 1 light year is equivalent to <b>5,865,696,000,000</b> miles.

How many seconds are there in 1 year?

<b>A: 60 x 60 x 24 x 365 = 31,536,000 seconds.</b>


How many seconds in 50000 years?


A<b>: 31,536,000 x 50000 = 1,576,800,000,000 seconds.</b>



If there are <b>1,576,800,000,000</b> seconds in <b>50000</b> years, and if we multiply this by <b>186,000</b> (speed of light in miles/sec)


<b>A: 1,576,800,000,000 x 186,000 = 293,284,800,000,000,000</b>



This means angels and the spirit will cover a total <b>293,284,800,000,000,000 </b> miles if travelling at the speed of light for <b>1,576,800,000,000</b> seconds



If we now divide <b>293,284,800,000,000,000</b> miles by the distance light travels in <b>1 light year</b>, i.e. <b>5,865,696,000,000</b> miles

<b>A: 293,284,800,000,000,000 divided by 5,865,696,000,000 = <span>50,000 </span> </b>


<b>Therefore it is a fact that it takes <span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%;">50000</span> light years for the angels and the spirit to ascend to Allah.</b>

<b>Alhamdulillah: All praise and thanks are due to Allah.</b>
