How Small Is An Atom? Spoiler: Very Small.
Atoms are very weird. Wrapping your head around exactly how weird, is close to impossible – how can you describe something that is SO removed from humans experience? But then again, they kind of make up everything, so let us try anyways.

————————————————————————————-
So whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it.
And whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.
Quran 99:7 – 99:8
————————————————————————————-
Revealed 1400years ago… Fourteen hundred years ago… no microscopes, no ultraviolet scans, not even the shadow of modern science. And yet… the Quran spoke of atoms. Not metaphor. Atoms. The smallest building blocks of everything we know. So you tell me—how? Coincidence? Lucky guess? No. It’s not guesswork. It’s not fiction. It’s revelation. Because these words—they didn’t come from man. They came from the One who made the atoms. The One who carved the fabric of reality itself. The Lord of all worlds. The Creator of the heavens, the earth, and everything in between (ALLAH). before the advention of microscop or ultra violet scan, how did quran know about atoms how did it know about every living thing came from water biologic fact and you name it there is thaousents of them scientific fact accurate without a single mistake or contradiction all revealed 1400years ago to a man in a desert in the arabian who could not speak or write he was illeterate so how?!, because it allah's word, the creator of atoms the lord of all worlds the creator of the heavens and the earth, and everything in between.

He’s correct : Smallest known: quarks, electrons.
Theoretical smallest: strings, at Planck length (~10⁻³⁵ m).
Smaller = unknown or undefined.

So atoms are like electricity potential in a wire?

Fun fact: we are closer in size to the universe than we are to the smallest molecules…

This video offers a fascinating glimpse into the microscopic world of atoms. The way you explain their complexity makes it easier to understand. Thank you for illuminating such abstract concepts!
