Dear Fawad Ch!

You are too educated to be a politician in Pakistan. Either quit constituency politics or become a senator. Otherwise, you won't survive in this field long!

Thank You!

And He has set firm mountains in the earth so that it would not shake with you..
(Quran, 16:15)

Have We not made the earth as a bed, and the mountains as pegs? (Quran, 78:6–7)

So the bafoon is trying to sound intelligent. Depending on which plate, earthquakes can also arise from sliding between two techtonic plates, moving apart and not just exclusively from colliding. We don't sit on the plate boundary, however we know the mechanism but cannot predict it's activity.

As for the 'Civil Engineer' who just mentioned seismic proof buildings without going into any details. Kobe in 1995 was hit with 6.0 earthquake which destoyed the city. Even if you 'dampen' the foundations to aborb the vibrational energy you still need to accommodate the resonance. You can allow so much for the building to move before it collapses.

Since you (FW) are ignorant in the matter of Religion and opened the subject on decadence in the West and Alms (Zakat). Guidance was sent to Banu Israel in the form of Messengers and the Book. Whenever they deviated from the truth they were enslaved, thrown out and scattered in the land. Similiarly, when Muslims deviate from Islam the outcome is for all to see.

As Omar (RA), second Caliph said Arabs were no body until the advent of Islam. And he said if they persuse anything else then they would be disgaced. This is a lesson for Pakistan.

FW is still behaving like an Information Minister. For Nation to stand on it's feet, it needs food security, water security and energy security. I suggest stop this 'bak-bak' and concentrate on the task in hand. Start looking into renewable energy, clean water technology and upgrading our universities with outside affiliation and more importantly close collaboration between Industry and academia.

Who ever says mountains are orgs doesnt understand geology. Why is it that mountain areas like kashmir see the most earthquakes?

I've studied Geology. It is blatantly obvious that you have no clue how magma convection currents work or else you wouldn't made the above statement. I've seen your posts and pretty much predictable; Mulla-this and Mulla-that.

Congrats on studying geology. So have I.

You must be well aware that mountains are formed by the movement and collision of tectonic plates, not by Allah placing them as pegs in the ground.

The same friction between tectonic plates causes earthquakes. Look at the US Geological Survey and see where the Earthquakes take place, they take place mostly in mountain range areas.

The whole Earth landmass is floating on magma, similar to ice on water. It is referring mountains as anchors.

The Crust which mountains are part of only goes 30-50km deep.

The liquid magma part is the outer core. And this layer starts 2890 km deep.

The solid part which you want to anchor to is the Inner core which starts at 5150km.

So using mountains to anchor the earth is like using a tooth pick to anchor the titanic in the Mariana trench. And the toothpick doesn't start from the bottom of the ship but from the top of the ship.

Crust which floats on outer mantle to be correct. Do bottom of mountains not have roots which acts as peg/anchors?

Focusing in the wrong area as they don't influence the mantle flow or impact on viscous drag. However, mountains dampen ground vibration by scattering the wave generated by nearby quake.
