BABYLONIAN ASTRONOMICAL THOUGHTS IN THE WORDS OF THE QUR'AN
Jafar Nekonam ,Abstract
The studies in this article show that most of the words in the Quran have Babylonian and Mesopotamian origins. Many of these words are in the field of astronomy. In this article, it has been shown with Qur'anic evidences how the astronomical ideas of the Mesopotamia civilization were reflected in the Qur'an through the passage of the words included in the Qur'an. The results of the investigations in this article indicate that the seven heavens do not have a reality outside of this visible sky, and the septification of the visible sky goes back to the astronomical thoughts of the Mesopotamia people. They considered the seven heavens to be layers of the same sky in which the seven bodies of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn flow in order.
