Did they not then consider that which is before them (future) and that which is behind them (past) of the sky and the earth? If We will We can cause the earth to sink with them or We can drop on them pieces from the sky. Certainly there is a sign in that for every servant who turns in repentance (to Allah). (R 1)
Geologists and Astronomers know the past and future of the expanding universe, they can also realize that there could be earth quakes sinking human beings and meteoritic showers killing them.
