Abstract

There have been many attempts at colonizing Mars given the advancement of human knowledge and technology. As Muslims, we believe that the Quran and Hadith should guide humans as to how to conduct their life and to comprehend any issues regarding it. However, unfortunately there are still very few resources and studies regarding the idea of colonizing Mars based on an Islamic perspective. The main objective of this study is to analyse the correlation between Quranic commentaries with modern discoveries about Mars. The studies show that the word ard in the Quran can give the meaning of land and not specifically the planet Earth and there are commentaries on Quranic verses that indicate the existence of earths other than the planet Earth that we are inhabiting. The Quranic perspective towards the physical properties of the word ard can serve as a benchmark on whether Mars can be considered as a land that humankind can colonize or not. For the current exploration and scientific advancement, there is no clear proof that the red planet has achieved the physical properties of the word land according to the Quranic perspective.
