Is it? The ancient Hebrew scriptures allude to a flat Earth and some say the Qur'an does as well.

"The earth is flat. Whoever claims it is round is an atheist deserving of punishment."
- Sheik Abdul-Aziz Ibn Baaz, supreme religious authority of Saudi Arabia, 1993 -
Qur'an 15:19
And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.
Qur'an 20:53
He Who has, made for you the earth like a carpet spread out; has enabled you to go about therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water from the sky."
Qur'an 51:48
And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: How excellently We do spread out!Comment

tyreeses time is precious LOLThere are people today who think that admitting God’s absolute greatness decreases the value and importance of humans in the creation, as if God and mankind are rivals competing in greatness and power. Meanwhile I feel that whenever our perception of God’s greatness increases, with it we become greater, because we are the creation of a great God.

to cite Congo's reference:
Qur'an 15:19
And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.
Qur'an 20:53
He Who has, made for you the earth like a carpet spread out; has enabled you to go about therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water from the sky."
Qur'an 51:48
And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: How excellently We do spread out!
where does it say or even imply flatness or spherical nature of the earth? there is a phrase there, translated as "spread out", it refers to expanse of the land.
1. earth is indeed flat, we dont walk on a curved surface / we don't fall off the edges.
2. earth is indeed curved, just look at the horizon of sea from a high place. both are correct in context. the context is frame of reference, or the perspective or size.
the language of quran is language of allah, each ayat is immensely profound in meaning.
learn of your world first, through science, mathematics, logic and arabic, fully understand it before challenging a single ayat of quran shareef.Comment

^ But the Hebrew scriptures allude to a flat Earth in many verses and sayings such as "four corners of the Earth" are common as well.Comment
