The speed of light in the quran 

The Quran states another verse in which angels traveling at a certain velocity, appear to experience slower time than humans.

[Quran 70.4] The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a day, the measure of which is fifty thousand years.

Here angels will experience 1 day while humans will measure it as 50,000 years (time vs. time and not time vs. distance as the previous lunar verse). This can happen if:

1. Angels accelerate to relativistic speeds.
   
   
2. Angels are in a strong gravitational field.
   
   

1. Outside gravitational fields this agrees with Einstein’s theory of special relativity, which says that a faster moving object appears to experience slower time. Moslems use Einstein’s theory of special relativity with the following verse in the Quran to assert that angels indeed accelerate up to the speed of light. Given this time difference (time dilation) we can calculate the speed at which that object traveled. We can verify if those angels really accelerate up to the speed of light, as claimed by Moslems, or not. Outside gravitational fields this speed turned out to be 99.99999999999981% of the speed of light:

(see equation on top of page)

(Where ∆to is the time measured for a mover by a mover; ∆t is the time measured for a mover by a stationary frame; v is the velocity of the mover relative to the stationary observer):

∆to is the time experienced by angels (1 day).

∆t is the time as measured by humans (50,000 lunar years x12 lunar months/lunar year x 27.321661 days/lunar month).

v is the velocity of angels in this case (which we intend to calculate and then compare to the known speed of light).

c is the nominal speed of light, 299792.458 km/s.

Plugging those into the time dilation equation we get:








Remember the speed of light is 299792.458. Look at how accurate the Quran is! Its just another coincidence right?
