In a previous article, we discussed the scientific essence of ancient scriptures and Holy Books to encourage modern science to investigate its profound wisdom and accuracy. In this article we will borrow the last quote from Quran mentioned in our previous article to dissect and investigate its accuracy.

The quote Surat al Rahman verse 35:
(O company of jinn and men, if ye have power to penetrate (all) regions of the heavens and the earth, then penetrate (them)! Ye will never penetrate them save with (Our) sanction. (33) Which is it, of the favors of your Lord, that ye deny? (34) There will be sent, against you both, heat of fire and flash of brass, and ye will not escape. (35).
يَـٰمَعۡشَرَ ٱلۡجِنِّ وَٱلۡإِنسِ إِنِ ٱسۡتَطَعۡتُمۡ أَن تَنفُذُواْ مِنۡ أَقۡطَارِ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَٱنفُذُواْۚ لَا تَنفُذُونَ إِلَّا بِسُلۡطَـٰنٍ۬ (٣٣
This verse is of a prophetic nature related to future events though partially fulfilled yet still presents a great challenge to human effort to space and interstellar travel. If we analyze this verse carefully we will end up facing an issue for both aliens and humans for both species seem to share an intertwined fate with their pursuit of journeying and exploring the universe.
The first phrase of the verse indicates that if both species are to succeed in space travel they will only do so with science referred to in the phrase as Sultan, but even if we so succeed we will not be able to harness our success due to multiple hurdles and hazards having to face from space environment and condition such as space debris, black holes, fallen stars, super nova etc…
Partial success which we humans began to enjoy recently is still very young and limited. However it is rather interesting to look into the wordings used to describe the act and that is penetrate, in Arabic the word referred to is tanfozou which more accurately means to forcefully exist and not to penetrate, this common interpretation error is probably due to the lack of knowledge in the nature of gravity and other related fields of science on the universe and how things work in it…
The wording used to describe the event clearly indicates to the great knowledge possessed by the conveyor in the sciences related to the nature of gravity and the resistance generated from attempting to exit its field force, then we have the other phrase which indicates the hurdles and hazards of fire and brass as in the basic ingredients of a meteor or other specific space debris which presents a great challenge to any space craft venturing into deep space.
What is most intriguing is the intertwined fate between two totally different species of humans and aliens referred to in the verse as Jinn, as many westerners would probably related the word Jinn to a night and a thousand night tales of Sindbad or Alibaba, the truth is Jinn in Arabic does not brand a category or specify a type of specie but rather indicates that its invisible to the naked eye that is all.
There are many types of invisible species to our naked eye including bacteria, viruses and microbes, the mentioning of humans and Jinn aliens in this form indicates that the aliens also have science and an agenda to explore and investigate but seemingly more advance from humans since they are mentioned first in the verse which is an indication to their potential to reach such levels of advancements before we humans do.
The other intriguing esoteric in here is the hidden meaning which may very well indicate to their nature in the sense of sharing our world, culture and civil structure, why and how is that, simply, they seem to exist within our world mostly in parallel worlds or dimensions and they seem to have found a way to penetrate our own dimension and communicate or interact with our world through yet unspecified or recognize means to science such as telepathy, clairvoyance, teleportation, or other advanced technological means and tools.
What leads me to such a conclusion is actually another verses I would quote from Quran which is in Surat al Jinn ( The Aliens ) ( قُلۡ أُوحِىَ إِلَىَّ أَنَّهُ ٱسۡتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡجِنِّ فَقَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا سَمِعۡنَا قُرۡءَانًا عَجَبً۬ا (١) يَہۡدِىٓ إِلَى ٱلرُّشۡدِ فَـَٔامَنَّا بِهِۦۖ وَلَن نُّشۡرِكَ بِرَبِّنَآ أَحَدً۬ا (٢) وَأَنَّهُ ۥ تَعَـٰلَىٰ جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا ٱتَّخَذَ صَـٰحِبَةً۬ وَلَا وَلَدً۬ا (٣) وَأَنَّهُ ۥ كَانَ يَقُولُ سَفِيہُنَا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ شَطَطً۬ا (٤) وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّآ أَن لَّن تَقُولَ ٱلۡإِنسُ وَٱلۡجِنُّ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبً۬ا (٥) وَأَنَّهُ ۥ كَانَ رِجَالٌ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡإِنسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمۡ رَهَقً۬ا (٦) وَأَنَّہُمۡ ظَنُّواْ كَمَا ظَنَنتُمۡ أَن لَّن يَبۡعَثَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدً۬ا (٧) وَأَنَّا لَمَسۡنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ فَوَجَدۡنَـٰهَا مُلِئَتۡ حَرَسً۬ا شَدِيدً۬ا وَشُہُبً۬ا (٨) وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقۡعُدُ مِنۡہَا مَقَـٰعِدَ لِلسَّمۡعِۖ فَمَن يَسۡتَمِعِ ٱلۡأَنَ يَجِدۡ لَهُ ۥ شِہَابً۬ا رَّصَدً۬ا (٩) وَأَنَّا لَا نَدۡرِىٓ أَشَرٌّ أُرِيدَ بِمَن فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَمۡ أَرَادَ بِہِمۡ رَبُّہُمۡ رَشَدً۬ا (١٠) وَأَنَّا مِنَّا ٱلصَّـٰلِحُونَ وَمِنَّا دُونَ ذَٲلِكَۖ كُنَّا طَرَآٮِٕقَ قِدَدً۬ا (١١) وَأَنَّا ظَنَنَّآ أَن لَّن نُّعۡجِزَ ٱللَّهَ فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَلَن نُّعۡجِزَهُ ۥ هَرَبً۬ا (١٢) وَأَنَّا لَمَّا سَمِعۡنَا ٱلۡهُدَىٰٓ ءَامَنَّا بِهِۦۖ فَمَن يُؤۡمِنۢ بِرَبِّهِۦ فَلَا يَخَافُ بَخۡسً۬ا وَلَا رَهَقً۬ا (١٣) وَأَنَّا مِنَّا ٱلۡمُسۡلِمُونَ وَمِنَّا ٱلۡقَـٰسِطُونَۖ فَمَنۡ أَسۡلَمَ فَأُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ تَحَرَّوۡاْ رَشَدً۬ا (١٤) وَأَمَّا ٱلۡقَـٰسِطُونَ فَكَانُواْ لِجَهَنَّمَ حَطَبً۬ا (١٥) وَأَلَّوِ ٱسۡتَقَـٰمُواْ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقَةِ لَأَسۡقَيۡنَـٰهُم مَّآءً غَدَقً۬ا (١٦) لِّنَفۡتِنَهُمۡ فِيهِۚ وَمَن يُعۡرِضۡ عَن ذِكۡرِ رَبِّهِۦ يَسۡلُكۡهُ عَذَابً۬ا صَعَدً۬ا (١٧) وَأَنَّ ٱلۡمَسَـٰجِدَ لِلَّهِ فَلَا تَدۡعُواْ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ أَحَدً۬ا (١٨) وَأَنَّهُ ۥ لَمَّا قَامَ عَبۡدُ ٱللَّهِ يَدۡعُوهُ كَادُواْ يَكُونُونَ عَلَيۡهِ لِبَدً۬ا (١٩
(Say (O Muhammad): It is revealed unto me that a company of the Jinn gave ear, and they said: Lo! we have heard a marvellous Qur’an, (1) Which guideth unto righteousness, so we believe in it and we ascribe unto our Lord no partner. (2) And (we believe) that He – exalted be the glory of our Lord! – hath taken neither wife nor son, (3) And that the foolish one among us used to speak concerning Allah an atrocious lie. (4) And lo! we had supposed that humankind and jinn would not speak a lie concerning Allah – (5) And indeed (O Muhammad) individuals of humankind used to invoke the protection of individuals of the jinn, so that they increased them in revolt (against Allah); (6) And indeed they supposed, even as ye suppose, that Allah would not raise anyone (from the dead) – (7) And (the Jinn who had listened to the Qur’an said): We had sought the heaven but had found it filled with strong warders and meteors. (8) And we used to sit on places (high) therein to listen. But he who listeneth now findeth a flame in wait for him; (9) And we know not whether harm is boded unto all who are in the earth, or whether their Lord intendeth guidance for them. (10) And among us there are righteous folk and among us there are far from that. We are sects having different rules. (11) And we know that we cannot escape from Allah in the earth, nor can we escape by flight. (12) And when we heard the guidance, we believed therein, and whoso believeth in his Lord, he feareth neither loss nor oppression. (13) And there are among us some who have surrendered (to Allah) and there are among us some who are unjust. And whoso hath surrendered to Allah, such have taken the right path purposefully. (14) And as for those who are unjust, they are firewood for hell. (15) If they (the idolaters) tread the right path, We shall give them to drink of water in abundance (16) That We may test them thereby, and whoso turneth away from the remembrance of his Lord; He will thrust him into ever-growing torment. (17) And the places of worship are only for Allah, so pray not unto anyone along with Allah. (18) And when the slave of Allah stood up in prayer to Him, they crowded on him, almost stifling. (19).
The great importance of these verses lies in the detailed description of their world, their nature and the similarity of social structure, and the interaction they also share with us. The details shed light on their social life, their beliefs, their understanding of our traditions and cultures and social structure, and the many other common attributes that they and we humans seem to have. To me this is an undisputed proof of my claims and my inevitable conclusions, which I find no other scientific source to logically discredit.
There amount of data and information related to aliens and their interaction with mankind are immense and its found all over the world in ancient scriptures, Holy books, archeological findings and in mythology of the ancient world the primitive and the civilized ones.
