Some contemporary commentators have taken the Quranic expression of bi Ghayri Amadin Tarownaha, the verses 2 of Ra`ad and 10 of Loqman, as referring to gravity and its role in the creation of the high building of Heaven. It is as if the gravitation has been taken as some invisible columns; since taking gravitation as column is not a scientifically sound analogy, this article, while critiquing and interpreting the views, makes it clear that the verse is metaphorically correct by applying the word "amad" to refer to the creation of the heavens signifies the interplay of causes and invisible devices that replace the pillar of human-made buildings. The verse seems to refer to the fundamental forces that have played a major role in the emergence of the universe, according to the latest advances in physics. On the other hand, the concept of "samawat" in the Qur'an and the different interpretations of the two verses mentioned, also employing the words "raf`" and "khalq", contain indications that are consistent with the scientific interpretation of the creation of the world.
