Peace brother Ali Noor,

I really liked your post 

I'd like to humbly add to your statement if I may "Therefore life in other planets is possible but they may be other than Ins."

Life on other parts of the universe is confirmed by the Quran. Please also note that there are also other celestial objects in the universe similar to earth (65:12)

Please note the word 'Da'aba' which is a reference to living creatures. This has been spread in both (fi-hima) the Heavens and the Earth (42:29). Indeed they may have different physiology to the creatures on Earth and different perceptions but I find strong support for their existence from the Quran.


DO ALIENS EXIST

ARE THERE SEVEN HEAVENS OR SEVERAL HEAVENS?

Regards,
Joseph.

Brother Amir Abbas,

Salamun Alaikum.

Certainly from the verses you have cited and many others in the Quran, this certainly seems to be the best interpretation in my personal opinion. There are powerful statements in the Quran which support your conclusions such as where the Earth has been described as a 'kifat' for both the living and the dead (77:25). So yes, I would incline to your interpretation as being the most cogent in light of the Quran.

I suppose the only argument one could expect is where an individual 'may' argue that the Quran is expressing what the human species was 'intended' for and not conclusively 'only' for. But this is a hypothetical and I personally find little value in entertaining this thought when there are explicit statements in the Quran.

Your brother in faith.
Joseph.
