Moslems (Muslims) believe that angels are low
density creatures, and that God created them
originally from light. They move at any speed
from zero up to the speed of light. It is the
angels who carry out God's orders. Those
angels take their orders from a Preserved
Tablet somewhere in outer space, and not from
God's Throne. They commute to and from this
Preserved Tablet to get their orders from God.
In the following verse, the Quran describes how
angels travel when they commute to and from
this Tablet. And the speed at which they
commute to and from this Tablet turned out to
be the known speed of light:
[Quran 32.5] (Allah) Rules the
cosmic affair from the heavens to
the Earth. Then this affair travels
to Him a distance in one day, at a
measure of one thousand years of
what you count.


It is the angels who carry out these orders.
Those people back then measured the
distances neither in kilometers nor in miles but
rather by how much time they needed to walk.


For example, a village two days away meant a
distance equivalent to walking for two days; ten
days away meant a distance equivalent to
walking for ten days... However in this verse
the Quran specifies 1000 years of what they
counted (not what they walked). Those people
back then followed the lunar calendar and
counted 12 lunar months each year.

These
months are related to the moon and not
related to the sun. Hence in 1 day the angels
will travel a distance of 1000 years of what they
counted (the moon). Since this verse is referring
to distance, then God is saying that angels
travel in one day the same distance that the
moon travels in 12000 lunar orbits.

We
discovered that in an inertial geocentric frame
12000 Lunar Orbits/Earth Day is equivalent to
the Speed of Light. Learn more.
(Common sense says that sunlight illuminates
Earth and that without sunlight darkness will
cover Earth; is there anything simpler? But the
Bible says something else: In Genesis 1:1-31
the Bible explains how the sun is related to day
and night. The Bible says that on the first day
God created the light and darkness on Earth,
the first evening came and the first morning
followed. But God did not create the sun until
the fourth day, specifically after three evenings
and three mornings. So three evenings and the
three mornings occurred on Earth before there
was a sun. So according to the Bible daylight
occurs without the sun!)
