Islam on Space Exploration and Migration

At the beginning of the 21st century, researchers and scientists discussed the universe from various perspectives, one issue of overriding importance was human migration into space. They have been discussing such questions as:

1. Can humans inhabit a planet other than the planet Earth?

2. Is the existence of creatures, similar to human beings, on a planet other than the Earth a fact or a fantasy?

3. Do creatures in outer space, namely aliens really exist—the aliens who are believed to be more powerful, more resourceful and technologically more advanced than humans, and who will invade the people of the Earth and bring an end to them?

4. A similar issue is the reality of Gog and Magog which the major religions of the world, including Islam, have been discussing for centuries. Do they truly exist? If they are real, where are they now? Have they emerged or will they only come prior to the Final Hour?

The present book attempts to tackle the above and a host of other issues. To authenticate the material of the book, it includes citations taken from the Qur’an, hadiths, scriptures of other religions and space sciences.
