### 📋 **Key Points for the Poster:**
✅ **1. Quranic Connection:**
- The Qur'an describes **sun**, **moon**, and **stars** as **swimming (yasbahoon)** each in their own **orbits** — perfectly matching modern knowledge about astronomy.
- The idea that **celestial bodies move in orbits** was unknown to humans at the time of the Qur'anic revelation.
✅ **2. Scientific Highlights:**
- **Planets orbit the sun** in elliptical paths.
- **Moons orbit planets**, and **stars orbit the center of galaxies**.
- The **Sun itself orbits** around the center of the Milky Way galaxy (about once every 230 million years).
- Modern science confirms that all celestial bodies are **constantly moving** — not fixed.
✅ **3. Emotional Message:**
- The cosmos runs on **perfect divine order** — with Allah’s decree and precision.
- Reflecting on the universe leads to stronger belief in Allah’s power and wisdom.
