- 23:3823:38, 12 September 2016 diff hist −1,370 Scientific Errors in the Quran Inanimate objects thinking or prostrating is nonsense in any age, but it's part of theology of the 'unseen'. Science not relevant to disprove it.

4 March 2016
- 21:5421:54, 4 March 2016 diff hist +39 Geocentrism and the Quran →The visibility of the sun's movement: Changed to Sahih Intl translation, which as is so often the case, is most accurate. The sentence parsing is important to leave no doubt.
- 21:5221:52, 4 March 2016 diff hist +143 Geocentrism and the Quran →The course of the sun in relation to the course of the moon: Note that 36:37 gives more proof that the sun's movement is supposed to be visible
- 21:3821:38, 4 March 2016 diff hist +55 Geocentrism and the Quran →Primary Evidence: I always tend to feel that "orbit" lends an undeserved air of scientific credibility to the Qur'an, so just a little note on that as falak can mean semi circle
- 21:3021:30, 4 March 2016 diff hist −1,004 Geocentrism and the Quran →Primary Evidence: Maybe contentious, but the hadiths and scientist only appear right at the end in a minor role so I've removed the preamble, which is partly duplicated there anyway. Better to shorten, get right into it before the reader gets bored.
- 21:2321:23, 4 March 2016 diff hist −683 Geocentrism and the Quran →The movement of the sun and timekeeping: Made explicit the connection with previous section. Shortened article by removing the full prayer time quotes as adds little, instead added their verse numbers to salat list.

- 21:0521:05, 4 March 2016 diff hist +281 Geocentrism and the Quran →The visibility of the sun's movement: merged the 13.2 stuff into here as per above, reducing duplication and the length of the article.
- 21:0021:00, 4 March 2016 diff hist −946 Geocentrism and the Quran →The sun and moon are signs from Allah: Removed the part about 13:2, because it is already in the next section too where it is even more relevant. I'll partly merge those comments into there.

- 20:2120:21, 4 March 2016 diff hist +707 Geocentrism and the Quran →The course of the sun in relation to the course of the moon: The Arabic point re the word follows is a major evidence, so moved to here. I'll remove from endnotes where it had earlier been put in an effort to shorten the primary evidence list.
- 19:5719:57, 4 March 2016 diff hist −10 Geocentrism and the Quran →The regular cycle of the sun: 'prevents' is not an accurate word given the Arabic. 'Not for' or 'not fitting' is more accurate.
- 19:5319:53, 4 March 2016 diff hist −133 Geocentrism and the Quran →The visibility of the sun's movement: Added the milky way point which this section is crucial in debunking. Also removed an unnoticed apologetic addition.
- 19:1119:11, 4 March 2016 diff hist +224 Geocentrism and the Quran →Primary Evidence: List was missing 2 major points, so slightly expanded a couple of existing points to include them.
