In the Quran: have you not realized that Allah is Aware of what you do?

The Moon is mentioned in the Bible 41 times, 32 times in the Old Testament and nine times in the New Testament.

The Moon is mentioned in the Noble Quran 25 times

In the Bible, Psalm 72:7 says that the moon is no more when peace abound.   However, Psalm 89:37 says that the moon is established forever.

In the Quran, Verse 31:29 says that Allah made subservient the sun and the moon, of the two, is running, in its course, to the Day of Resurrection.

------------------------------------------------

  

Psalm 72:7 and 89:37 in four different versions of the Bible:

  

Psalm 72:7

  

New International Version

7 In his days the righteous will flourish; prosperity will abound till the moon is no more.

New American Standard Bible

7In his days may the righteous flourish, And abundance of peace till the moon is no more.

English Standard Version

7In his days may the righteous flourish, and peace abound, till the moon be no more!

King James Version

7In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.

-------

  

Psalm 89:37

  

New International Version

37 it will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky."  Selah

New American Standard Bible

37"It shall be established forever like the moon, and the witness in the sky is faithful." Selah.

English Standard Version

37Like the moon it shall be established forever, a faithful witness in the skies."  Selah

King James Version

37It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

-------

  

It follows that Psalm 72:7 states that the moon is no more whereas Psalm 89:37 says that the moon is established forever. 

Something confusing!

 It should be emphasized that the Islamic teachings is that nothing but Allah is established forever.

Chapter 31: LUQMAN (LUQMAN)

Verse 31:29 of the Noble Quran in four different translations:

  

QARIB: do you not see how Allah causes the night to enter into the day, and the day enter into the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running to a named term? Allah is aware of what you do.

  

SHAKIR: do you not see that Allah makes the night to enter into the day, and he makes the day to enter into the night, and he has made the sun and the moon subservient (to you); each pursues its course till an appointed time; and that Allah is aware of what you do?

  

PICKTHAL: hast thou not seen how Allah causeth the night to pass into the day and causeth the day to pass into the night, and hath subdued the sun and the moon (to do their work), each running unto an appointed term; and that Allah is informed of what ye do?

  

YUSUFALI: seest thou not that Allah merges night into day and he merges day into night; that he has subjected the sun, and the moon (to his law), each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do?

  

Have you not seen, have you not realized, O you being addressed, that Allah makes the night pass into the day and makes the day pass into the night, such that the increase of the one is relative to the decrease of the other, and Allah made subservient the sun and the moon, He has disposed the sun and the moon, each of the two is running in its course, to an appointed term, namely, to the Day of Resurrection, and that Allah is Aware of what you do of good or evil?
