      14. The Almighty (or in a sea Kzlmat ing covered by waves above him waves of clouds above the darkness of some of them over some said if his hand was barely see, and God did not make him Nora Fmalh of light
      The ancient man could not dive more than 15 meters because he was unable to survive without breathing for more than two minutes, and because his body veins would explode from the pressure of the water. From the waters, the first is deep and it is very dark and covered by a strong moving wave, and another layer is superficial and it is also dark and covered by the waves that we see on the surface of the sea. The Almighty said (clouds of darkness, some of them above the others, and when he took out his hand, he could hardly see them) and he said that such clouds had never been seen by Muhammad and the countries that were not inhabited by God in the north of the Arabian Peninsula and Russia. And peace and this Qur'an must be the word of God.
      15- The Almighty said: “The Romans have been defeated * in the lowest of the earth.” Al-Rum 2-3
      The lowest land: the lowest point on the surface of the earth, and the Romans were predominated in Palestine near the Dead Sea, and when this verse was discussed with the famous geologist (Palmer) at the international scientific conference that was held in Riyadh in 1979, he immediately denied this matter and announced to the public that there are many places The surface of the earth is lower, so the scholars asked him to verify his information, and to review his geographical plans. The scientist (Palmer) was surprised by a map of his maps showing the terrain of Palestine, on which he drew a thick arrow pointing to the area of ​​the Dead Sea. He declared his admiration and appreciation and affirmed that this Qur'an must be the word of God.
      16- The Almighty said: (He creates you in your mothers’ wombs, creation after creation in three darknesses).
      - Muhammad was not a doctor, and he was not able to dissect a pregnant woman, and he did not receive lessons in anatomy and embryology, and this science was not even known before the nineteenth century, the meaning of the verse is completely clear and modern science has proven that there are three membranes surrounding the fetus:
      First: the attached membranes that surround the fetus and consist of the membrane that makes up the lining of the uterus, the placenta, and the amniotic membrane. These three membranes form the first darkness of their adhesion to each other.
      Second: the uterine wall, which is the second darkness.
      Third: the abdominal wall, which is the third darkness.
      From where did Muhammad Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family, have this medical information? ‍‍‍‍??
      17. He says (not seen that God and then compose clouds Extends him and then makes it ruins you see the rain come through it and come down from the sky from the mountains where the cold afflicts him and whom he will spend about whom he will not hardly go Burka Balobesar)
      - Scientists say: the formation of cumulus clouds begins with a few cells like cotton, pushed by the wind to merge with each other, forming a giant cloud like a mountain, reaching a height of 45,000 feet. At the height of the mountain-shaped cloud, how much does it lead to electrical discharges that release sparks of brilliant light that afflict the pilots in the sky with what is called (temporary blindness), and this is exactly what the verse described. Is Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, to bring this accurate information from him???
      18- The Almighty said: (And they stayed in their cave for three hundred years, and they increased to nine)
      - What is meant in the verse is that the Companions of the Cave stayed in their cave for 300 solar years and 309 lunar years, and it was confirmed to mathematicians that the solar year is 11 days longer than the lunar year, so if we multiply the 11 days by 300 years, the result is 3300 and by dividing this number by the number of days The year (365) becomes 9 years. Was our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, able to know the length of stay of the people of the cave according to the lunar and solar calendar???
      19- The Almighty said: (And if the fly robs them of something, it does not take away from it the weakness of the seeker and the one sought)
      Modern science has proven the presence of secretions in flies so that what they pick up turns into completely different materials from what they picked up, so we cannot know the truth of the material that they picked up, and therefore we can never exhaust this material from it. Who told Muhammad about this also? Was it not God Almighty who knows the subtleties of matters who told him?

      Well, since it was constructed as a fire lookout (you can see the Osborne Fire Finder on the right side of the screen at 13:19), they probably flew the materials in by helicopter. All I'm thinking abvout is how they provided supplies and water to the site, since it's hard to imagine someone staffing the lookout having to navigate all that way on foot (especially on those shaky-looking ladders} to carry food and water up and waste down...

The Almighty said (clouds of darkness, some of them above the others, and when he took out his hand, he could hardly see them) and he said that such clouds had never been seen by Muhammad and the countries that were not inhabited by God in the north of the Arabian Peninsula and Russia. And peace and this Qur'an must be the word of God.
      15- The Almighty said: “The Romans have been defeated * in the lowest of the earth.” Al-Rum 2-3
      The lowest land: the lowest point on the surface of the earth, and the Romans were predominated in Palestine near the Dead Sea, and when this verse was discussed with the famous geologist (Palmer) at the international scientific conference that was held in Riyadh in 1979, he immediately denied this matter and announced to the public that there are many places The surface of the earth is lower, so the scholars asked him to verify his information, and to review his geographical plans. The scientist (Palmer) was surprised by a map of his maps showing the terrain of Palestine, on which he drew a thick arrow pointing to the area of ​​the Dead Sea. He declared his admiration and appreciation and affirmed that this Qur'an must be the word of God.
      16- The Almighty said: (He creates you in your mothers’ wombs, creation after creation in three darknesses).
      - Muhammad was not a doctor, and he was not able to dissect a pregnant woman, and he did not receive lessons in anatomy and embryology, and this science was not even known before the nineteenth century, the meaning of the verse is completely clear and modern science has proven that there are three membranes surrounding the fetus:
      First: the attached membranes that surround the fetus and consist of the membrane that makes up the lining of the uterus, the placenta, and the amniotic membrane. These three membranes form the first darkness of their adhesion to each other.
      Second: the uterine wall, which is the second darkness.
      Third: the abdominal wall, which is the third darkness.
      From where did Muhammad Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family, have this medical information? ‍‍‍‍??
      17. He says (not seen that God and then compose clouds Extends him and then makes it ruins you see the rain come through it and come down from the sky from the mountains where the cold afflicts him and whom he will spend about whom he will not hardly go Burka Balobesar)
      - Scientists say: the formation of cumulus clouds begins with a few cells like cotton, pushed by the wind to merge with each other, forming a giant cloud like a mountain, reaching a height of 45,000 feet. At the height of the mountain-shaped cloud, how much does it lead to electrical discharges that release sparks of brilliant light that afflict the pilots in the sky with what is called (temporary blindness), and this is exactly what the verse described. Is Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, to bring this accurate information from him???
      18- The Almighty said: (And they stayed in their cave for three hundred years, and they increased to nine)
      - What is meant in the verse is that the Companions of the Cave stayed in their cave for 300 solar years and 309 lunar years, and it was confirmed to mathematicians that the solar year is 11 days longer than the lunar year, so if we multiply the 11 days by 300 years, the result is 3300 and by dividing this number by the number of days The year (365) becomes 9 years. Was our master Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, able to know the length of stay of the people of the cave according to the lunar and solar calendar???
      19- The Almighty said: (And if the fly robs them of something, it does not take away from it the weakness of the seeker and the one sought)
      Modern science has proven the presence of secretions in flies so that what they pick up turns into completely different materials from what they picked up, so we cannot know the truth of the material that they picked up, and therefore we can never exhaust this material from it. Who told Muhammad about this also? Was it not God Almighty who knows the subtleties of matters who told him?

      @@drewsimms lol, break-ins at trail heads like this didn't used to be a thing until a bunch of internet clout chasers started making videos like this and posting them on the internet for hundreds of thousands of people to see. locations like this used to have natural filters in place as the locations were only spread by word of mouth in the climbing and hiking community, people usually wouldn't reveal the locations to randos who didn't seem like they'd respect the areas but when you post them to the internet for the entire world to see with no filters you don't know whose going to show up and do what to the place and even if everyone is well intentioned places that would only see a couple of dozen people a year are now seeing couple of thousands and get destroyed through nothing more than sheer numbers alone.....all for nothing than some fake internet points and pats on the back from strangers you'll never meet.
      not trying to be a dick here, just make you aware of what you are doing, i was born and raised in the north cascades and have been mountain climbing since the late 80's with over a 100 summits in the area....if you truly love a place and think it's special keep the location to yourself and only share it with people you know personally, you can still make your videos just don't say where it is....there's been far to many places trampled and destroyed from having the locations posted to the internet where any butthole can just go out there and disrespect the place, you NEVER know who or what kind of person is watching your videos.....most people are good, but like all things it only takes a few to ruin something and again, even good people can ruin stuff through nothing more than sheer numbers due to how the natural environment works and our impact.
      good luck to you man and what you are doing, just be mindful of what your doing and what your impact is beyond you just physically being there, you may feel like you have little impact when you are in these places alone but remember that when you take 880,000 of us internet people with you by making these videos and publishing them that impact is exponential.

      @@two_tone_xlophone2630 I seriously doubt people are driving all the way to this trailhead just to break into a car because they saw a video about the place online. Locals are the ones breaking into cars, not "randos" from far away who happened to find out about the location online. Locals likely already knew about this spot. I live near Everett, and there are unfortunately a lot of dickhead druggies who live in the area who do shit like this. Locals around this area like to use this place as a shooting range and will often vandalize cars parked near the Three Fingers trailhead just because they can. Gatekeeping places like this isn't safeguarding them from car break-ins.
