The history of the earth starts from about 4.5 to 5 billion years back, when it achieved a separate existence through accretion of solid material. Following information from the Quran appears to through some light on the origin of the earth.
Iron is said to have been sent down, which means that it came from regions beyond the earth. In this connection and following information taken from New Scientist Jan 13th 1990 and journal of Chemical Education, Sept 1990 deserves to be compared with the text of the above information taken from the Quran, revealed 1400 years back.
'The ultimate stellar ash is made up of iron. In iron, atomic nuclei are packed as tightly as possible. Iron is the heaviest element that gets made in a star by standard nuclear burning, It has the most stable nucleus. The energy required to synthesize iron is not available on eart. Therefore the iron found in the earth must have been synthesized in outer space'.
Information from Quran as well as Science indicates that the iron present in the earth, a major portion of which forms the core, was sent down from the outer space and that the origin of the earth was associated with a star, the sun. The Chief constituents of the globe separated into a solid core and a silicate mantle, probably when the earth was still in a molten condition due to initial high temperature. Later differentiation produced the complex outer crust on which we live

"...and we sent down the iron in which is severe strength and other benefits for mankind." (Surah AL-KHADEED. 25)
