Where did Noah's flood occur?

"We sent Noah (as a prophet) to his people . So he stayed among them for fifty years, less than a thousand years. So, while they were oppressors (infidels), the flood (calamity) overtook them. Then We saved him (Noah) and his companions in the ark (from the scourge of the flood) and made him an example to (all) the worlds. (Surah Ankabut, verses 14-15) .

The verses mentioned above and in other chapters tell us about the great flood that happened on earth. So much so that it covered a large part of the earth and destroyed a certain civilization.

I wonder what scientists say about this message in the Qur'an. Will he admit that there really was such a flood? What are your views on the subject? Below we will discuss how this phenomenon was proven by experts.

If it is missing once a thousand times, that is, as a result of a natural disaster, a rapid migration or a battle, traces of it are preserved much better. Because in such cases, the places where people lived, the things they used in their daily life are buried under the ground for a short period of time and are kept untouched for a long time. And after it comes to light, it gives important information about the past.

A number of arguments related to Noah's flood also appeared in this way. A flood that occurred about three thousand years before Christ destroyed the entire Hazara in a moment and opened the way for a completely different civilization to take its place. In this way, evidence related to the event has been preserved for thousands of years for us to learn from.

A number of excavations have been carried out to study the flood that covered the plain of Mesopotamia. Ur, Uruk, Kish, and Shuruppak, the major Mesopotamian cities in the region, have been found to show signs of a violent flood. Archaeological excavations show that these cities were flooded approximately three hundred thousand years ago.

British archaeologist Leonard Woolley led excavations in the desert between Baghdad and the Persian Gulf in collaboration with the British Museum and the University of Pennsylvania. "Rider's Digest" describes Woolley's research as follows: "Depth in the excavation area, a very important find was discovered - the tomb of the kings of Ur." Archaeologists have come across legendary works of art in the tombs of Sumerian kings and nobles. Spears, swords, musical instruments, jewelry made of gold, precious stones...

The workers went down another meter through the mud-covered bricks and began to extract the finds. And then everything suddenly stopped. There was nothing to this oil, only pure mud that had brought water, only...

Woolley continued to dig. They went down through a two and a half meter layer of clay, and the workers saw pieces of stoneware, bowls and pots made by the people of that time. It was clear that under the clean mud there was a Hazara. All this was a confirmation of the flood in the region. Microscopic analysis also showed that the thick layer of clay was deposited by a large and violent flood of the level that destroyed the ancient Sumerian civilization.

At the end of the excavation, Sir Woolley concluded: "Such a large layer of mud formed at the same time indicates an extremely powerful flood. It could be the remnants of the legendary Noah's flood.'

The German archaeologist Werner Keller expresses the results of this excavation in the following way: "In the research conducted in Mesopotamia, the discovery of city remains under the clay layer proved that there was a flood here."

Now let's take a look at the messages of the Qur'an 1400 years ago about the global flood recognized by scientists:

It was revealed to Nuh: " None of your people will believe anymore except those who have believed (until now) . So don't worry about what they are doing! Build the ark with Our observation and revelation (command) and do not cry out to Me (for protection) about the wrongdoers ! They are surely the drowning ones!'' (Surah Hud, verses 36-37) ;

"As it (the ark) carried them in waves like mountains, Noah called his son (Kan'an) who was standing on the edge and said: "O my son! Get on (the ship) with us ! Do not be with the disbelievers!” He (his son) said: " I will seek refuge (by going) to a mountain that will protect me from the water ." (Noah) said: "Today there is no (power) to save from the commandment of Allah except those on whom He has mercy ." (At that time) a wave came between them and (the son) was among those who drowned. (Then) it was said: “O Man! Drink your water! O sky! Hold on (stop raining!) ” The water dried up, the order was fulfilled and (the ship) landed on (Mountain) Juvdi and “Woe to the people of the oppressors!” said" (Surah Hud, verses 42-44) .

What does it mean that the Qur'anic message and the conclusions of scientists agree so much? What do those who deny that the Qur'an is the word of God explain the fact that it announced this flood 1400 years ago? Can a human child tell about a flood that happened thousands of years ago as if he had seen it? Do those who accept the word of scientists as evidence in other matters close their eyes and close their ears in front of such a scientific revelation about Noah's flood?

The truth is that science has once again confirmed the Qur'an, and scientists have proven the correctness of the information in the Qur'an with their conclusions.

Let's finish our speech with a request: a person who was a ummi, leaning on a book in his hand, gave a sign as if he saw the flood that happened centuries ago. Then, hundreds of years later, this news was researched and confirmed by all the historians and archaeologists of the time. Even then, is it right to doubt that this person is a prophet of God who knows the past and the future, and the book in his hand is His decree?
