A generation which ignores history has no past — and no future.

We all know that the Earth is a sphere. But there are some people who believe that the earth is flat.
For centuries, men were afraid to venture out too far, because they should fall off the edge!
Earth's Internal Struccture - describing the crust, mantle and core. Official version delivered at schools:
The mind blowing researches have been made to suggest that Earth could actually be hollow. There are sceptics who think it is a pseudoscientific belief, nevertheless the scientific researches have enough data to prove this theory, though officially it is not accepted.
A number of physicists, astronomers, mathematicians and high ranking military personnel share the same belief. They share their stories through experience, research and more. There really is some mind blowing information that suggests the Earth could actually be hollow. They are some of the most influential, intelligent, innovative and creative minds of all time -many of which are at the backbone of science and math. The intellectual arena is not the only one, the hollow Earth theory is also prominent in military history, the hub for global control and concealment of information, known today as the military industrial complex.

Here is a list of verses of the Qur'an, describing the shape of the earth why it is not a perfect sphere:
(13: 3) He - who stretches out (Madda) the land.
(15:19) And We have stretched out the earth (Madadnaha).
(20:53) He who has made for you the earth plain (Mahdan).
(2:22) that the land was made for you as carpet (Firasha).
(43:10) Who arranged for you the land as cradle (Mahdan)
(50: 7) And We have stretched out the earth (Madadnaha)
(51:48) And We have spread out the earth (Farashnaha)
(71:19) Allah has made for you the earth as litter (Bisata).
(78: 6) Have not We made the earth a bed? (Mihada)
(88:20) and on the ground, as it is spread (Sutehat).
(91: 6) and the ground, and what stretched it out (Tahaha)
The Qur'an describes the shape of the earth in the following words: Madda, Madadnaha, Firasha, Mahdan, Farashnaha, Bisata, Mihada, Tahaha and Sutehat. Each of them is "flat". But it is metaphora, because of other ayats we understand that the Earth have to be round anyway. Consider the following Qur’anic verse regarding the alternation of day and night: “Seest thou not that ALLAH merges Night into Day And HE merges Day into Night?” [Al-Qur’an 31:29]. Merging here means that the night slowly and gradually changes to day and vice versa. This phenomenon can only take place if the earth is spherical. If the earth was flat, there would have been a sudden change from night to day and from day to night. The following verse also alludes to the spherical shape of the earth:”HE created the heavens And the earth In true (proportions): HE makes the Night Overlap the Day, and the Day Overlap the Night.” [Al-Qur’an 39:5]. The Arabic word used here is Kawwara meaning ‘to overlap’ or ‘to coil’– the way a turban is wound around the head. The overlapping or coiling of the day and night can only take place if the earth is spherical. The earth is not exactly round like a ball, but geo-spherical i.e. it is flattened at the poles. The following verse contains a description of the earth’s shape: “And the earth, moreover, Hath HE made egg shaped.” [Al-Qur’an 79:30]
[The Arabic word dahaha has been translated by A. Yusuf Ali as “vast expanse”, which also is correct. The word dahaha also means an ostrich-egg.]
So, the Arabic word for egg here is dahaha, which means an ostrich-egg. The shape of an ostrich-egg resembles the geo-spherical shape of the earth.
Have a look at this picture:
Thus the Qur’an correctly describes the shape of the earth, though the prevalent notion when the Qur’an was revealed was that the earth is flat.
