The ruling on some people saying: The earth revolves around the sun?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it true that some people say the earth revolves around the sun?

Answer:
And they prove this, that the Qur'an states that the earth is fixed, and that Allah established it with mountains, and made the earth a stable ground, as is in the Qur'an. So if they claim to be in contradiction with the Qur'an, they must present the proofs, and they will never present proofs that contradict the Qur'an. Yes.
