The Lowest Point on Earth

Allah s.w.t says in the Quran, Chapter ar-Rom verse 1,2,3 and 4.

The meaning of these verses:

30:2 The Roman Empire has been defeated-
30:3 In a land close by; but they, (even) after (this) defeat of theirs, will soon be victorious-

The Cause Of The Revealation
.

These verses were revealed because the Muslim were sorrow for the defeat of the Roman (Byzentium) army by the Persian army. The Muslim were sad because the Roman were closer to their belief than the Persian who were fire worshippers.

The Fact

When the verses were revealed the Muslim rejoiced because they were convinced that the Roman would finally win the war against the Persian. The war which was referred by the Quran took place in 614. In this battle the Roman were defeated. The cross which was claimed to the cross which was used to crucify Jesus was taken to Persian and the Priest was also abducted by the Persian.

The Meaning of The Third Verse

.
The third verse has been translated to " in a land close by'. The word ADNA AL-ARD has been translated into " In The land close by". However the word "ADNA Al-ARD" in Arabic which has been translated as such also means "The Lowest Point On Earth". Meaning the war between the Roman and The Persian which is mentioned in the second verse took place in 614. It is just a mere coincidence that the War took place at the lowest point on earth and the Quran states that the Roman were defeated at the lowest point on earth?

Point To Ponder

How did the Quran know that the war took place at the lowest point on earth? Quran is the word of Allah and He is the creator of the universe and he knos everything!
