Pangea : The Face of the Past Earth According to Modern Science & the Qur'an
By Unknown - February 17, 2018
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful
٨٨ وَتَرَى الْجِبَالَ تَحْسَبُهَا جَامِدَةً وَهِيَ تَمُرُّ مَرَّ السَّحَابِ ۚ صُنْعَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي أَتْقَنَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ ۚ إِنَّهُ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَفْعَلُونَ
88 And you see the mountains, and imagine them fixed, yet they pass, as the passing of the clouds—the making of Allah, who has perfected everything. He is fully Informed of what you do.
QS. An-Naml (27) : 88
The Earth is undergoing some significant changes, especially because of its human role. The role of human beings have a positive and negative impact. Some examples of positive impacts, such as reforestation and dredging, extend river size. However, not a few negative effects, such as global warming that occurs due to human roles.
The world space agency, NASA is doing a photo project to compare the earth in the past, and in this era. The range of time difference is taken between 5 and 100 years back. Through these photographs, you can see how big the impact of global warming for the earth appearance and the changes that occur. The photographs are a comparison of photos taken in early 1900 and early 2000.

The Origin of Continents and Oceans by Alfred Wegener horrendes the entire foundation of Earth's science. The German meteorologist was the first to unite multidisciplinary evidence to support a controversial theory at the time of continental plate shifts.
Pangea Form
The book published in 1915 was once horrendous science world. When researching the world atlas in 1910, Wegener reflected on whether the form of the corresponding continent was a mere coincidence. Later, he united them into a single "primordial continent" which he called Pangea, the Greek for "all land".
Wegener theorized that this massive form of land had existed until 250 million-200 million years ago, when the continents began to break and drift to the present position.
Basic & Proof of Theory
For Geologists, Wegener shows the same land formations on a separate continent and states, among other things, that the Cape Fold Belt range in South Africa once merged with Sierra de la Ventana, Argentina.
For Biologists, this explains the species of flora and fauna that are related to lands that are separated by oceans. For paleontologists, this theory explains the fossils of mesosaurs found in both South Africa and Brazil. (Wegener's work was rejected by a prominent geologist who had an interest in Earth's evolutionary theories and was deeply rooted.)
At that time, Critics complained that Wegener failed to explain the exact mechanism, which would encourage the move.
Strengthening Pangea Forms Theory
In fact, if we combine information from the Qur'an, NASA, The story of Noah's flood, and various other modern science information, the land we are moving on now moves like a cloud.
Coupled with the many visual observations we can make today, for example: The similarity of the human race living in West Papua (East Indonesia), Australia (Aboriginal), Africa, and parts of the Americas, which are now separated by the sea thousands of kilometers away, we can draw the initial conclusion that: the form of land on Earth as the Pangea form proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1915.
It took more than 30 years to prove that Wegener's theory was correct.
