19th Century Ancient Ideas: Eternal Universe
The idea that was common in 19th century is that the universe is infinite-sized collection of materials that have been around since the old times and will continue to exist forever. Besides laying the foundation footing for understanding the materialist, this view deny the existence of the Creator and states that the universe had no beginning and no end.
Materialism is a system of thought which believes the material as the only absolute existence and denying the existence of anything other than the material. Rooted in ancient Greek culture, and received widespread acceptance in the 19th century, this system of thought became known in the form of Karl Marx's dialectical materialism to understand.

Adherents believe materalisme infinite universe model as the basis for an atheist to understand their footing. For example, in his book Principes de Philosophie Fondamentaux, materialist philosopher George Politzer said that "the universe is not something created" and added: "If it was created, he has definitely created by God immediately, and from nothing."

When Politzer believes that the universe was not created out of nothing, he rests on a static universe model of the 19th century, and thinks she is being put forward a scientific statement. However, science and technology developed in the 20th century, ultimately undermining the old idea that this is called materialism.

Astronomy Says: Universe Created
In 1929, Mount Wilson observatory in California, the American astronomer, Edwin Hubble made one of the greatest discoveries in the history of astronomy. When observing the stars with a giant telescope, he found that they emit a red light in accordance with the distance. This means that stars are "moving away from" us. Because, according to the laws of physics are known, the spectrum of light source that is moving toward the observer tends to purple, whereas observers tend to stay away from red. During the observations by the Hubble, the light from stars tends to a red color. This means that the stars are constantly moving away from us.
Before long, Hubble made another important discovery. Stars and galaxies moved away not only from us, but also from one another. The only thing that can be inferred from a universe where everything is moving away from one another is that it constantly "expands".

To be more easily understood, the universe can be likened to the surface of the balloon being expanded. As the dots on the surface of the balloon is moving away from one another when the balloon increases, objects in space are also moving away from one another when the universe continues to expand.

Actually, this fact has been discovered theoretically earlier. Albert Einstein, who is recognized as the greatest scientist of the 20th century, based on calculations he made in theoretical physics, has concluded that the universe could not be static. But, he laid his discovery, only in order not to conflict with the static universe model of the widely recognized that time. In later years, Einstein realized act as 'the biggest mistake of his career'.

What is the meaning of the expansion of the universe? Deployment of the universe means that if the universe can move backward into the past, then he will prove to be derived from a single point. Calculations show that the 'single point' was that contains all the material universe should have 'zero volume' and 'infinite density'. The universe was formed through a single point of zero volume explosion this.
Giant explosion that marks the beginning of the universe is called 'Big Bang', and his theory is known by this name exists. It should be noted that 'zero volume' is a theoretical expression is used to facilitate understanding. Science can define the concept of 'nothingness', which are beyond the limits of human comprehension, only by declaring it as a 'point of zero volume'. Actually, 'a point of no-volume' means 'nothingness'. Thus the universe came into existence from nothing. In other words, he has created. The fact that nature is created, which was discovered by modern physics in the 20th century, has been declared in the Qur'an 14 centuries ago: "He is the Creator of heaven and earth" (Surat al-An'aam, 6: 101)

Big Bang theory shows that all objects in the universe is a manifestation in the first place, and then separated. This means that the whole matter is created through the Big Bang or a giant explosion from a single point, and formed the present universe by way of separation from one another.

Big Bang, Disgusting Facts For The Materialist
Big Bang is an obvious indication that the universe was 'created from nothing', in other words it was created by God. For this reason, astronomers are convinced materialist understanding always reject the Big Bang and defend the idea of an infinite universe. This rejection reason is revealed in the words of Arthur Eddington, one of the renowned materialist physicist, who said: "Philosophically, the idea of beginning a sudden from the existing order of Nature is really disgusting to me."
The other a materialist, a leading British astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle is among the most disturbed by the Big Bang theory. In the mid-20th century, Hoyle put forward a theory called the steady-state similar to the theory 'of the universe remains' in the 19th century. Steady-state theory states that the universe is infinite and eternal size over the period. With the aim of maintaining understand materialists, this theory is completely opposite of the Big Bang theory, which says that the universe had a beginning. Those who maintain the steady-state theory has long been opposed to the Big Bang theory. However, science is in fact undermining their views.

In 1948, Gerge Gamov come up with other ideas about the Big Bang. He said that after the formation of the universe through a giant explosion, residual radiation left behind by these explosions must exist in nature. In addition, this radiation must be spread evenly in all parts of the universe. Evidence that 'should have' was eventually found. In 1965, two researchers named Arno Penziaz and Robert Wilson discovered these waves by mistake. This radiation, called cosmic background radiation ', did not appear to radiate from one particular source, but covers the entire space. Thus, it is known that this radiation is the relic radiation left from the early stages of the Big Bang. Penzias and Wilson was awarded the Nobel prize for their discovery.
In 1989, NASA sent the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite. COBE into space to do research on cosmic background radiation. It only takes 8 minutes for COBE to prove the calculations Penziaz and Wilson. COBE had found the remains of a giant explosion that has occurred in the early formation of the universe. Expressed as the greatest astronomical discoveries of all time, this discovery is clearly proving the Big Bang theory.

Other important evidence for the Big Bang was the amount of hydrogen and helium in space. In various studies, it is known that the concentration of hydrogen-helium in the universe correspond to theoretical calculations of hydrogen-helium concentration remaining relics of the Big Bang. If the universe had no beginning, and if he had been there since the old times, the element hydrogen is supposed to have run out completely and turned into helium.
All of this evidence caused the Big Bang theory accepted by the scientific community. Big Bang model is the last point reached by science concerning the origin of the universe. Anyway, this universe has been created by Allah the Almighty to perfection without a flaw:

"Who created the seven heavens in layers. You shall not look at the creation of God, Most Gracious, something that is not balanced. So lihtatlah repeatedly, is there anything you see something that is not balanced." (Surat al-Mulk, 67:3)
