Latest scientific research, published in SciTechDaily on May 29, 2021 has highlighted the surprising similarities between quark-gluon plasma, the first matter thought to have filled the early Universe, and water that comes from our tap. [16] First thought that comes to one’s mind is the verse quoted below:
11-7: And He it is Who created the skies and the earth in six periods when His throne was on water (Fluid), that He may test you as to which of you is best in action…[1]
There are two words requiring analysis, Arsh and Ma’a both appear in the Quran and Ahadith several times, so let us analyze:
1) What is al-Arsh (The Throne)?
Imran bin Husain narrated in a long hadith:
…O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! We have come to ask you about this matter (i.e. the start of creations).” He said, “First of all, there was nothing but Allah, and (then He created His Throne). His throne was over the water, and He wrote everything in the Book (in the Heaven) and created the Heavens and the Earth.” … See complete hadith in references.[2]
Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin al-‘As reported: I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: Allah ordained the destiny (program) of the creation fifty thousand years before He created the heavens and the earth, as His Throne was upon water.[3]
Narrated Waki’ bin Hudus: from his uncle Abu Razin who said: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Where was our Lord before He created His creation?’ He said: ‘He was (above) the clouds – no air was under him, no air was above him, and He created His Throne upon the water.'”[4]
… The first thing Allah created was the pen. He said to it: Write. It asked: What should I write, my Lord? He said: Write what was decreed about everything till the Last Hour comes…[5]
From the above it is clear regarding Arsh (Throne) that:
- In the beginning there was no one except Allah (SWT),
- Reading in between the lines there was water first over which the Arsh (Throne) was created, it is important to note that the Arsh (Throne) was needed before the next steps could be implemented,
- Then the destiny (program) was ordained (instructed, established), probably Arsh was involved in this ordainment of destiny,
- Then the pen was created, which wrote down destiny (program) of how the creation is to take shape till the last hour, fifty thousand years prior to the creation of the universe (the heavens and the earth),
- Then the skies and the earth (universe) was created.
7-54: Your Fosterer is certainly Allah Who created the skies and the earth in six periods, then He set the balance on the throne (of the universe). He makes the night to cover the day, which (i.e. the day) seeks the (night) rapidly (in succession). And the sun and the moon and the stars are compelled to follow His command. Is not His the creation and the command? Blessed be Allah the Fosterer of the worlds.[6]
Dr. Mir Aneesuddin in his summarized commentary on the above verse in the Quran explains:
“Our Fosterer is Allah (SWT) Who created the heavenly bodies and Who has laid down laws for their peaceful existence which we call ‘The laws of nature’. Every nation has a capital from where orders are issued and affairs managed. al-Arsh (The Throne) appears to be the capital of the Universe: Following is the summary of verses of the Quran on the topic of al-Arsh translated as ‘Throne’ which signifies ‘Sovereign Power’
- Before the creation of the skies and the earth al-Arsh was on a fluid 11:7 (This may refer to the plasmic state of matter before the ‘Big Bang’).
- After the creation of the skies and the earth balance was set on al-Arsh for regulation of the affairs (of the Universe) 10:3.[7]
- Allah (SWT) is the Owner of the al-Arsh 17:42.[8]
- Allah (SWT) is the Fosterer of the al-Arsh 9:129.[9]
- Angels go round al-Arsh. This indicates that al-Arsh occupies space 39:75.[10]
- Eight (angels) will bear the al-Arsh above them 40:7,[11] 69:17.[12]
al-Arsh therefore appears to be a place and something representing central control. It may be the capital of the Universe from where all affairs are controlled and not the seat of Allah (SWT) because nothing can encompass Him as He encompasses everything 4:126.”
2) What is al-Ma’a (Water or Fluid)?
The word used to define the state of matter in the verse we started this article with is al-Ma’a meaning water, but the Quran also uses the word al-Ma’a to refer to any fluid other than water.[13]
As suggested by Dr. Anees in the previous section, if al-Ma’a (Fluid) refers to the plasmic state of matter (due to its fluid nature) then the current understanding of the laws of nature are insufficient to define the properties of matter that existed prior to the big bang. The laws of nature we know of, through experimental verification and discovery, belong only to this universe and we are limited by the inability of science to explain the state of matter or even determine whether matter existed or not prior to the Big Bang?
However, the Quran and Ahadith of Rasoolullah (ﷺ) state that water or some kind of fluid existed prior to the creation upon which al-Arsh was created. The following ahadith put things in perspective, as the throne was and is currently on water:
It was narrated that Ibn Mas’ood said: Between the first heaven and the one above it is (a distance of) five hundred years. Between each of the heavens is (a distance of) five hundred years. Between the seventh heaven and the Kursiy is (a distance of) five hundred years. Between the Kursiy and the water is (a distance of) five hundred years, and the Throne is above the water. Allah SWT is above the Throne, and nothing whatsoever of your deeds is hidden from Him.[14]
Narrated Abu Hurairah: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Ar-Rahman’s Hand is full, He spends without any decrease, night and day.’ He said: ‘Do you not see how much He has spent since He created the heavens and the earth, yet it has not decreased what is in His Hand, and His Throne is over the water, and in His Other Hand is the Mizan (Scale) which He raises and lowers.'”[15]
3) Conclusion
al-Arsh (the Throne) is the most powerful thing in the universe/multiverse, as Allah SWT says in the Quran: “…then say, “Allah is sufficient for me, there is no god but He, in Him have I put my trust and He is the Lord (Rabb) of the great (mighty) throne (of the universe).”[17] The capital or the central control of the universe/multiverse.
al-Arsh is currently on water (al-Ma’a), since we do not know what happened before the big bang we do not know the properties of matter that existed before it, in particular the properties of al-Ma’a (Water or Fluid or quark-gluon plasma?) on which al-Arsh (the Throne) is, as scientists think that nothing existed before space-time was created, is as if the infant inside its mother’s womb thinking that there is nothing outside of it! We need religion and the divine texts to understand what lies before and beyond this universe, that knowledge too is limited. It is not in the scope of this article to discuss:
- Is al-Ma’a, quark-gluon plasma, from which this universe(s) was created?
- What happened before the big bang?
- How this universe will end?
- Are they multiple parallel universes?
- Are the properties of matter different in other universes?
- Is there life after death and how this life will be sustained and for how long?
- How will we be transported to other universe?

Narrated Imran bin Husain: I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and tied my she-camel at the gate. The people of Bani Tamim came to the Prophet (ﷺ) who said “O Bani Tamim! Accept the good tidings.” They said twice, ‘You have given us the good tidings, now give us something” Then some Yemenites came to him and he said, “Accept the good tidings, O people of Yemem, for Bani Tamim refused them.” They said, “We accept it, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! We have come to ask you about this matter (i.e. the start of creations).” He said, “First of all, there was nothing but Allah, and (then He created His Throne). His throne was over the water, and He wrote everything in the Book (in the Heaven) and created the Heavens and the Earth.” Then a man shouted, “O Ibn Husain! Your she-camel has gone away!” So, I went away and could not see the she-camel because of the mirage. By Allah, I wished I had left that she-camel (but not that gathering).

Your Fosterer is certainly Allah Who created the skies and the earth in six periods, then He set the balance on the throne (of the universe). He makes the night to cover the day, which (i.e. the day) seeks the (night) rapidly (in succession). And the sun and the moon and the stars are compelled to follow His command. Is not His the creation and the command? Blessed be Allah the Fosterer of the worlds.

[7] Al Quran, Surah Younus, Chapter 10: Verse 3
Your Fosterer is certainly Allah Who created the skies and the earth in six periods, then He set the balance on the throne (of the universe), directing the affair. No mediator (can recommend) without (obtaining) His permission. That is Allah your Fosterer, so serve Him. Will you not then mind?
إِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ ۖ يُدَبِّرُ الْأَمْرَ ۖ مَا مِنْ شَفِيعٍ إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ إِذْنِهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ رَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۚ أَفَلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
[8] Al Quran, Surah al-Isra, Chapter 17: Verse 42
Say, “Had there been (other) gods along with Him as they say, then they would have sought a way to the (Real) Owner of the throne (of the universe).”
قُلْ لَوْ كَانَ مَعَهُ آلِهَةٌ كَمَا يَقُولُونَ إِذًا لَابْتَغَوْا إِلَىٰ ذِي الْعَرْشِ سَبِيلً

And you will see the angels inclining from (all) round (towards) the throne (Probably the capital of the Universe) glorifying by praising their Fosterer. And it will be judged between them with justice and it will be said, “Praise is due only for Allah, the Fosterer of the worlds.”
وَتَرَى الْمَلَائِكَةَ حَافِّينَ مِنْ حَوْلِ الْعَرْشِ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ ۖ وَقُضِيَ بَيْنَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ وَقِيلَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
[11] Al Quran, Surah al-Mumin, Chapter 40: Verse 7-9
40-7: Those who bear (the burden of) the throne (of the universe) and those around it, glorify by praising their Fosterer and they believe in Him and seek protective forgiveness for those who believe: “Our Fosterer! You embrace everything in mercy and knowledge, so protectively forgive those who repent and follow Your way and save them from the punishment of hell.
الَّذِينَ يَحْمِلُونَ الْعَرْشَ وَمَنْ حَوْلَهُ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ وَيُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا رَبَّنَا وَسِعْتَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ رَحْمَةً وَعِلْمًا فَاغْفِرْ لِلَّذِينَ تَابُوا وَاتَّبَعُوا سَبِيلَكَ وَقِهِمْ عَذَابَ الْجَحِيمِ
40-8: Our Fosterer! and make them enter the gardens of everlasting bliss which You have promised them, and whoever is righteous from among their fathers and their mates and their descendants, You are certainly the Mighty, the Wise
