Surat Ash-Shu'ara‘-63
So We revealed to Moses, 'Strike the
sea with your staff.' And it split in two,
each part like a towering cliff.
(Surat Ash-Shu'ara‘- 63)

THE TSUNAMI EFFECTThe Egyptian monarchs known as
the pharaohs regarded
themselves as divine in the polytheistic, superstitious
religion of ancient Egypt.

Allah sent the Prophet Moses (pbuh) as an
envoy to the people of Egypt at a time when they preferred their own superstitious
beliefs to the true faith and when they had
enslaved the Israelites.

Despite the Prophet Moses (pbuh)'s
invitation to the true faith, the ancient
Egyptians and Pharaoh and his court in
particular, refused to abandon their pagan
beliefs.

THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
Since tsunami waves cause large amounts of water to shift and thus give way to the emergence of earth on
shallow grounds.
![Page 14: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
In the time of the Prophet Moses (pbuh), as with the tsunami waves the waters might have pulled back some hundreds of meters and this might have caused the parting of the sea. (Allah knows best.)

THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
![Page 16: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECTIn addition, the waters
are compared to mountains in
the above verse.
The waters collected in a tsunami
form a giant peak1
![Page 17: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
and resemble a mountain seen from below.
As with mountains, the base of the tsunami is very
broad and strong.
![Page 18: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECTIn tsunamis, the depth of the water declines while the mass of the
wave expands and rises in height. Tsunamis
may be up to 30m
high.2
![Page 19: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
It is therefore very significant how the waters are likened
to a mountain.
![Page 20: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECTTsunamis are very
different to the waves we are familiar with, and are a movement of the entire depth of water. This is not
generally restricted to the surface,
and may stretch for
several kilometers.
![Page 21: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
They thus possess high levels of energy and move very fast.3
Scientific statements
say this about
tsunamis:

THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
•In fact the tsunami crest is just the very tip of a vast mass of water in motion•Wind-driven waves and swells are confined to a shallow layer near the ocean surface, a tsunami extends thousands of feet deep into the ocean•Survivors of tsunami attacks describe them as dark "walls" of water.•Impelled by the mass of water behind them, the waves bulldoze onto the shore and inundate the coast
![Page 23: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
The contours of the seafloor and coastline have a profound influence on the
height of the waves -- sometimes with surprising
and dangerous results.
![Page 24: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
During the 1993 tsunami attack on Okushiri, Japan, the wave "run up" on the coast averaged about 15
to 20 meters (50 - 65 feet).
![Page 25: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
But in one particular spot, the waves pushed into a V-shaped valley open to
the sea, concentrating the water in a tighter and
tighter space.
![Page 26: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
In the end, the water ran up to 32 meters (90 feet) above sea level, about the height of an
8-story office building. 4

THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
The way the waters parted when the Prophet Moses (pbuh) and
his companions needed to cross and how they closed again over
the heads of Pharaoh and his army are clear instances of the
way Allah assists believers.

THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
![Page 30: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
THE TSUNAMI EFFECT
And when the two hosts came into sight of one another
Moses's companions said, 'We will surely be overtaken!' He said, 'Never! My Lord is with
me and He will guide me.' (Surat Ash-Shu'ara', 61-62)
![Page 31: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The force applied to the sea floor causes mountainous waves to form by causing the water to rise up vertically.
![Page 32: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Tsunami Formation:Stage 1—Beginning: If the tsunami acts like an
earthquake, the sea floor is moved up or down. As a result the mass of water moves up or down.
![Page 33: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Separation Stage 2 —Separation: Within a few minutes,
the tsunami that starts to form divides in two, one part moving toward the depths of the ocean, the other reaching the coast.
![Page 34: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
ElevationStage 3—Elevation: The tsunami
wave reaching the shore rises up like a huge wave when it reaches the land.
![Page 35: 053 the parting of the sea (2)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021918/58a5cfe11a28ab6c2a8b6061/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Wave impactStage 4- Wave impact: The
leading wave becomes pointed and appears to rise even higher. The first part of the wave to hit the land is convex in shape, which is why the water initially seems to be pulling away from the land.
