The faith of Dhul-Qarnayn and the paganism of Alexander.

Different goals and means.

The geographical scope of their career differs.

Building backfill.

The role of Dhul-Qarnayn in making ancient Chinese history.

Let’s track and reflect on some of the events:

1. When Moses killed a man as a result of his advocacy for one of the weak, a man came to him from the furthest part of the city, as mentioned in the Noble Qur’an, and said to him, “The chiefs are conspiring against you to kill you, so get out, for I am one of the advisers to you.” No one would say such a saying except for someone who knows what is going on inside the ruling house in terms of matters and intrigues.

2. When Moses called Pharaoh to worship God alone, The Qur’an depicted that scene for us as a debate between Moses on the one hand, Pharaoh and his chiefs on the one hand, and the believing man on the other hand.

Verses from Surat Ghafir: And Musa said, “I have sought refuge in my Lord and your Lord from every arrogant person who does not believe in the Day of Judgment (27) And a believing man from Pharaoh’s family who concealed his faith said, “Would you kill a man because he says, ‘My Lord is God,’ while he has come to you with proofs from his Lord?” How much, and if he is a liar, then his lie is on him. And if he is truthful, some of what he threatens you will befall you. a lying shelf (28) O my people, you have the kingdom today, victorious in the land, so who will help us from the might of God if it comes to us? Pharaoh said: I will not show you anything but what I see And I guide you only to the path of right path. (29) And he who believed said, “O my people, I fear for you like the Day of the Parties.” (30)

And the narration of the verses continues, where Pharaoh takes pride in sin and commands Haman to build a edifice for him, so that he may reach the causes of the causes of the heavens, so that he may see the God of Moses. Here, the believer intervenes once again and strongly, as he rebukes his father, Pharaoh, and his people, as he says:

O my people, why do I invite you to salvation and you invite me to Hell (41) You call me to disbelieve in God and to associate with Him that of which I have no knowledge, and I call you to the Mighty, the Forgiving. (42) No offense to whom you call me, he has no claim in this world or in the Hereafter, and that our return is to Allah, and that the extravagant ones They are the owners of the fire (43) Then you will remember what I say to you, and I delegate my command to God. Indeed, God sees the servants. (44) So God protected him from the evils of what they plotted, and an evil punishment befell the people of Pharaoh. (45)

If we thought about what the believer said, we would find that it was a strong, frank, direct and bold statement.

For the futility of thinking of Pharaoh, Haman and Qarun, And the health and rationality of Moses, on the other hand, But what is remarkable about that scene is that the believer man was the one who was most absorbed in talking, directing advice and guidance, blaming and reprimanding. It was as close as possible to the calls of the Messengers and their approach. It is also more interesting to note that Pharaoh and his entourage did not expressly oppose or oppose the call and opinions of the believing man, despite what they conveyed of eloquent advice and severe threats. It is also strange that the responses of Pharaoh and his entourage to the believing man did not bear any kind of anger, threat or rebuke.

So what does that mean? This clearly means that this believer had a special status with Pharaoh. A status that made him avoid stopping him, punishing him, or reprimanding him in public. This explains why Haman and Qarun did not dare to incite to kill him or curse him out of fear of Pharaoh. Why??? Because that man is, in fact, the son of that pharaoh, i.e. (Amenhotep the Fourth), the son of (Amenhotep the Third), i.e. (Akhenaten).

3. Through the many and accurate historical studies of ancient Egyptian history, not all of these sources referred to a believing figure from the Pharaoh’s family who believed in the one God other than (Akhenaten).

4. The remains of Akhenaten and Nefertiti were not found in Egypt. What also draws attention is that there was no trace of the remains of Akhenaten, his wife, and the senior men of the royal court, and that their tombs, which were specially built for their burial, were found empty of any dead. Where this discovery confirms and supports what was previously assumed that Akhenaten is Dhul-Qarnayn who migrated from Egypt and roamed the earth and eventually settled in China, where he died there.

1. The worship of idols and planets was the prevailing belief in Egypt from the First Dynasty until the Fifth Dynasty, when what is known as the doctrine of the sun appeared, which had a great influence on the Egyptian belief, and one of its effects was the establishment of the god (Ra), which means (the sun), and he was considered the supreme deity of the state. This was the prevailing situation when Akhenaten came to power in the country. Akhenaten revolted against this situation and resisted all deviant currents and demanded that the priests and the people worship the sun god and not the sun itself. It must be noted here that all the evidence that will be listed must be considered in aggregate and complete with each other because they are complementary to each other.

2. Quranic evidence for the faith and message of Akhenaten, which was previously mentioned about the believing man from the family of Pharaoh in Surat Ghafer, verses 41 to 45.

3. Moses and Akhenaten grew up in one house. Where the date of the birth of Moses, peace be upon him, was previously mentioned, and that he was a contemporary of Akhenaten’s father, and documented historical sources indicate that Akhenaten assumed power after the death of his father, and that Moses lived a time after the death of Pharaoh, By virtue of the nature of the relationship that must have formed between Moses and Akhenaten in the stages of youth, it is expected that Moses would have a great influence on the thought and soundness of Akhenaten’s belief.

4. The congruence in the style of construction between the edifice of Haman and Pharaoh and the filling of Gog and Magog. Whereas, if we contemplate verse 38 of Surat Al-Qasas:

And Pharaoh said, O chiefs, I did not know that you had a god besides me, so kindle for me, O Haman, in clay, so make for me a citadel, so that I look up to the God of Moses, and I think he is of the liars (38)

The edifice is the language of (the expensive building), and we are interested here to shed light on the three words (edifice – so kind – the mud), These words explain the basic characteristics of the edifice that Pharaoh Haman commanded to construct, as it is a tall building built of mud, and an artistic method was used in its construction based on the use of a specific fuel for burning mud. And if we compare the specifications of this project with the specifications of the backfill that Zulkarnain built

We would have found a great similarity in the basic technology of construction with the addition of the element of iron in the construction of backfill. . And if we contemplate the noble verses (95-96) of Surat Al-Kahf:

He said, “What my Lord has empowered me in is good, so help me with strength, and I will put a barrier between you and them.” (95) Bring me bits of iron, until when He made the two bivalves equal. He said, “Blow on it.” Even when He made it fire, He said, “Bring me to pour drops of water on it.” ( 96 )

To be clear, the diameter here is clay and not copper, as the author concluded. We note here that Dhul-Qarnayn applied the same technique and engineering methods that were not known in those ages except in Egypt.

5. The ships used in the voyage of Dhul-Qarnayn

If we reflect on the difficulty and danger of the journey of Dhul-Qarnayn in which his ships sailed vast oceans and distances exceeding tens of thousands of kilometers, to sunset, then to sunrise, then to China.. If we think about these facts, we will come to the conviction that such voyages can only be carried out using solid, elaborate and strong ships, and that quality was not available in that era except in Egypt. It has been proven to the author from the references and personal observation of the antiquities in the countries he visited and through the existing inscriptions that there are pictures and inscriptions of Egyptian-style ships in the countries of sunset and sunrise, which we will come to mention later.

After Pharaoh and his soldiers drowned in the sea, as we know from the story of Moses, Akhenaten took the throne of Egypt, He tried to consolidate his rule and call for monotheism, but he faced strong resistance from the priests and some of the symbols of the previous rule. In addition to other problems represented in the exposure of some states belonging to Egypt to external threats, such as the Levant, which was subjected to the invasion of the Hittites, who took advantage of Egypt’s weakness after the drowning of Pharaoh and most of his soldiers. And Akhenaten could not send any force there because most of the Egyptian army drowned with Pharaoh. Rather, he and his family became exposed to the plots of the priests and their followers. Then he was forced to migrate from the city of (Thebes), the capital of the king, to (Tell el-Amarna), where he built his holy city there. He ruled Egypt for about 18 years.

After the power of the priests and their followers increased, he was forced to emigrate from Egypt secretly, along with his wife (Nefertiti), their children, and a group of his followers on Egyptian ships across the Red Sea. Where he reached the setting of the sun and the rising of the sun and the land between the two valleys, It is worth noting here that his remains and his wife were not found in Egypt. Rather, many sources and antiquities indicate the existence of its effects in China, as we will see later.

Researchers and historians differed on the reasons, and some of them proved that the ancient Egyptians took the two horns as their symbol. And there are those who said that he used to let his hair be in the form of two braids. And there are those who said that because he used to draw the two horns on his flags and ships that he sailed on on his famous voyage, Or perhaps it is because he reached the two centuries of the earth, i.e. its east and west…

Akhenaten or Dhul-Qarnayn set out from Egypt on Pharaonic ships across the Red Sea to the Strait of Aden

All the way to the Arabian Sea, then the Indian Ocean, until we reach the equator, where the location of (the setting sun), which we will know shortly, Then he proceeded to sail east from the Indian Ocean and along the equator line until reaching the Pacific Ocean and continuing to cross this ocean until he reached (the rising of the sun) in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, which we will get to know later. Then return west through the same ocean until reaching the China Sea and from there to the Chinese mainland (the country between the two dams), where the story of Gog and Magog and the filling and the events and news that followed its construction begins.

With some reflection, we find that this trend did not come randomly or as a result of coincidence. Rather, it must have been a result of divine inspiration or as a result of the existence of forces of faith that interacted in the soul of Akhenaten. In addition to the progress in astronomy in which the ancient Egyptians excelled, All these factors were the basis on which Zul-Qarnain began his historical journey.

One of the aspects that draws attention and wonder is that the Holy Qur’an determined the direction and path of Dhul-Qarnayn’s journey in a way that corresponds completely with the actual sequence of geographical locations and with the integration and unity of the geographical location of these places. Where the Qur’an indicated that Dhul-Qarnayn set off from a place on the earth, heading towards the setting of the sun first, not the rising of the sun, then headed towards the rising of the sun, then towards the country between the two dams.

Extensive research in geography and astronomy indicates that the Earth is spherical in shape. Therefore, its surface does not gain heat from the sun evenly during its rotation around the sun. The part near the equator, the sun is perpendicular to it. Hence, its temperature is stronger than any other place on the surface of the earth. This geographical fact was the basis from which the author started searching for the setting sun and the silty spring. After that, he visited Sri Lanka. But he was not completely convinced that it is the setting sun. With further research and reading, the writer signed a valuable book in English, which is a book that examines the various components (Book of planet earth).

the elements of the earth including the oceans, Among the interesting information in this book:

1. On the equator, the sun sets and rises at the same time over time without change.

2. Ocean currents are divided into two parts:

A – * Currents near the equator tend towards the west driven by the trade winds, which are the winds that blow steadily towards the equator.

B*- The ocean currents closest to the poles are pushed back to the east by the winds that blow from the west.

3. As a result of the movement of opposite sea currents, what is called (helical rings) or what is called (pools of hot water) arises.

These factors are concentrated in a specific place on the globe, which is (the Maldives), Where there are sea currents and spiral, protective rings that burn like (red eyes) with sunset, In addition to a cosmic phenomenon discovered by the author after his visit to the Maldives, that it was formed as a result of volcanic eruptions, And that the shape of those islands took a ring or circular shape similar to the mouths of volcanoes, Perhaps it was active during the time of Dhul-Qarnayn and he saw the sun setting in the craters of those proofs. In addition to these evidences, many archaeological studies and studies of ethnology have proven that there are remains of ships made of reeds in the Maldives, just like those that were used in Egypt. Also, evidence was discovered indicating that the Maldives had been visited or perhaps inhabited 4000 years ago by people who worshiped the sun or made the sun their only reference. Moreover, I found stones carved with solar symbols similar to those of the Pharaohs of Egypt.

The bottom line that can be summarized here is that the country where the sun sets is the Maldives. And that the spring is nothing but the spiral rings or the protective ponds in the ocean or the craters of the erupting volcanoes in the time of Dhul-Qarnayn, As all indications and evidence confirm this.

God Almighty says in Surat Al-Kahf, verses (90-91), in His explanation of Dhul-Qarnayn’s journey towards the rising of the sun: Until when he reached the rising of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had not made a cover from it. (90) Likewise, We have encompassed what He has in news ( 91 )

First, it is necessary to look at some of the established cosmic phenomena and facts, and then we continue our journey with Dhul-Qarnayn in his circumambulation around the earth.

1. Definition of sunrise and sunset

Sunrise: The moment when the upper circumference of the sun’s disk appears above the sea level horizon.

sunset: It is the moment when the upper circumference of the sun’s disk disappears below the level of the horizon.

2. The regularity of the times of sunrise and sunset at the equator

One of the established scientific facts and evidence is that the sun rises at approximately the same time in areas near or adjacent to the equator. Also, the sun sets at about the same time every evening in these areas. And this divine system makes the length of night and day completely equal.

3. The sun rises and sets, but does not rise

If we carefully consider and think about the Qur’anic verses that mentioned and explained these phenomena, we would find that the Holy Qur’an distinguished between them clearly and clearly. God Almighty mentioned (the rising of the sun) only once in the Noble Qur’an. This means that this place is one, defined and specific place. As for the phenomenon of sunrise, the Qur’an mentioned this phenomenon in several verses, such as the Almighty saying:

(And you see the sun, when it rises, declining from their cave to the right) Al-Kahf: 17

(Until, when he reached the rising of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had not made a shield from it.) Al-Kahf: 90

(So ​​be patient with what they say and glorify the praises of your Lord before sunrise and before sunset) Surah Q: 39

However, the Holy Qur’an never mentions the expression sunrise or sunrise. Rather, the expression of sunrise and sunrise was the rule. As for the expressions of the sunrise, the east, and the east, they all relate to and relate to the earth, its movement, and its order. Allah says:

(And the earth shone with the light of its Lord, and the Book was set, and the prophets and the witnesses were brought, and it was judged between them with truth, and they were not wronged.) Al-Zumar: 69

(And We inherited the people who used to be oppressed, the east and west of the earth, which We have blessed…) Al-A’raf: 137

Therefore, sunrise is an adjective related to the earth and not to the sun. The sun rises and does not rise, and this is what modern astronomy discovered and confirmed.

After Dhul-Qarnayn left the country of the rising of the sun in the islands of the Pacific Ocean, he returned to the west in the direction of China, crossing the Pacific Ocean until he reached the Yellow Sea on which China is located. From there, as we believe, he entered the country of China. Perhaps he went directly to the area (between the two dams), which is located, as many indications and indications indicate, in the central part of China and closest to northern China in the (Henan) region (Henan) in what is known today as (Inner Mongolia, Siberia, and Korea), specifically in the city of (Jingju), It is worth mentioning here that who was ruling China at that time, around 1330 BC. AD is King (Shang) of the Shang Dynasty.

After conducting a lot of research, readings, surveys, and field visits to many different regions of China, it was possible to discover a historical event that was mentioned in several books on the history of ancient China, indicating that the first (Chinese Wall), as the Chinese and Westerners call it, was built during the reign of one of the kings of the (Shang) Dynasty. (Shangdynasty) and that that wall was in fact a rampart, in – and not a wall or a dam, and that this event took place in the period between (1150-1300) BC, in the city (Jingju) (Zhengzhou) in the region ( Henan (Henan) in central China, which antiquities and history books confirm that its remains still exist in this city, and the writer was able to see it firsthand.
