How Islamic Scholars React to the Latest Images by NASA

The latest photos of the universe that are said to be the “sharpest and deepest” to date by NASA have gotten the world rightly buzzing. Here are what some Islamic scholars have said about those amazing images and what they truly mean for us:

Not only do I admire the stunning beauty of what He has created and shown us here, but I long for what He has prepared for us in the next life that no worldly lens could ever capture should we be entered into His paradise.

Oh Allah, let us see and experience it eternally. Ameen pic.twitter.com/e2egvXczCG

{إِنَّا زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاء الدُّنْيَا بِزِينَةٍ الْكَوَاكِبِ}
"Truly, We have adorned the lowest heaven with stars for beauty" [Ṣāfāt: 6].

The images that NASA's space telescope are sending should humble us in awe and amazement at the beauty and majesty of Allah's creation. pic.twitter.com/i64GQ3MXqE
