<option weight="1">{{Pictorial-Islam|1=Qur'an Predicted Black Holes And Pulsars|2=[[File:Pulsars.jpg|240px|link=Quran Predicted Black Holes And Pulsars]]|3=This article analyzes two separate claims made by Harun Yahya concerning black holes and pulsars.
The analysis shows the claim that the Qur'an predicted the modern understanding of Black Holes is not backed by the scientific evidence, and the claim that the Qur'an predicted the modern understanding of pulsars is conjectural and not supported by the scientific evidence.
It has also shown Harun Yahya’s self-contradiction as he used the same Qur'anic verse to ‘prove’ both the black hole and the pulsar. Since a black hole cannot possibly also be a pulsar, it appears that Harun Yahya has refuted himself. ([[Quran Predicted Black Holes And Pulsars|''read more'']])}}</option>

Due to the sphericity of the earth, a prayer in any direction will point towards the sky/outer-space, not Mecca. People who are located on the opposite 'side' of the earth would have to pray vertically down towards the center of the earth, and would also blaspheme against Allah, because they defecate toward the direction of the Ka'aba when they answer the call of nature. If we use the traditional Muslim method of determining qiblah (i.e. a great circle) this would still be blasphemous because you would be simultaneously praying with your face and backside aimed towards the Ka'aba. For people located on the opposite 'side' of the earth any direction for all 360 degrees would be facing 'towards' Mecca and consequently, there would be no one direction that would be the correct one.
