We will examine the word SAMA- does it mean Heaven? It is used in Quran 310 times. Finding is – after careful examination- not once it is used as heavens. 1400 years back – people has not much clue of Earth’s Atmosphere, Solar system, Space, Deeper Space, Galaxies (Milky way), Universe. So, whenever the word is used to denote anything beyond Earth’s atmosphere- they understood as Heaven.
Earth’s atmosphere has multiple layers – altogether it is called Geospace – Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere
In most translations where Sama was translated as Heaven – it comes with Earth in the same sentence. Never once with Hell. Some are ridiculous as you may see below.

[31:20] Have you not seen that God has subjected for you what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth, and has showered His blessings upon you, both obvious and hidden? Yet, among the people are ones who argue about God without knowledge, or guidance, or an enlightening Book.
[31:25] If you were to ask them, “Who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth?” They would say, “God.” Say, “Praise be to God.” However, most of them do not know.
[31:26] To God belongs what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. God is the Rich, the Praiseworthy.
[32:4] God is the One who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them in six days, then He settled on the Throne. You have none besides Him as an ally or an intercessor. Will you not be reminded?
[32:5] He organises the affair from UNIVERSE ((not heaven) to earth, then it ascends to Him in a Day the measure of which is one thousand years of your count.
[33:72] We have offered the Trust to the OUTER SPACES (not heavens), the earth and the mountains, but they refused to carry it and were afraid of it, while the human being accepted it. Indeed, he was transgressing, ignorant.
[34:1] Praise be to God, to whom belongs what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth, and praise be to Him in the Hereafter. He is the Wise, the All-Aware.
[34:2] He knows what goes into the earth and what comes out of it, and what descends from the UNIVERSE (not heaven) and what ascends to it. He is the Merciful, the Forgiver.
[34:3] Those who disbelieved said, “The Hour will not come upon us.” Say, “Yes indeed! By my Lord, it will come upon you.” He is the Knower of the unseen. Not an atom’s weight escapes Him, be it in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) or the earth, nor what is smaller than that or larger. All are but in a clear Record
[34:9] Have they not seen that which lies before them and behind them of the UNIVERSE (not heaven) and the earth? If We will, We can make the earth swallow them up or make lumps from the SPACE (not sky) fall down upon them. In that is a sign to every penitent servant.
[34:22] Say, “Call upon those whom you have made claims for besides God, they do not possess a single atom’s weight in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) nor the earth, nor do they have any share in them, nor does He have an assistant from among them.”
[34:24] Say, “Who provides for you from the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth?” Say, “God. And indeed, we and you are either upon guidance or are in clear misguidance.”
[35:1] Praise be to God, the Initiator of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He made the angels messengers with wings, two, three and four. He adds to the creation what He wills. God is Capable of all things.
[35:38] Indeed, God is the Knower of the unseen of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. Indeed, God is Knowledgeable of what the chests hold.
[35:40] Say, “Have you ever seen your partners whom you call upon besides God? Show me what they have created from the earth, or do they have a partnership in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens)?” Or have We given them a Book from which they have a clear proof? Rather, the transgressors promise one another nothing but delusion.
[35:41] Indeed, God is the One who holds together the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, lest they cease to exist. They would have surely ceased to exist if it were other than Him who held them together. He is Forbearing, Forgiving.
[35:44] Have they not travelled in the land and seen what was the outcome of those before them? They were more powerful than them, but nothing can thwart God in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) or in the earth. He is Knowledgeable, Capable.
[36:28] We did not send down upon his people soldiers from the OUTER SPACE (not sky) after him, nor would We send down any.
[36:81] Is the One who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth not able to create their like? Yes indeed, He is the Knowledgeable Creator.
[37:5] The Lord of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what lies between them, and Lord of the Easts.
[38:10] Or do they possess the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them? Let them then ascend through the pathways!
[38:66] The Lord of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them, the Dignified, the Forgiving.”
[39:5] He created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth with truth. He rolls the night over the day and rolls the day over the night, and He subjected the sun and the moon, each running for a specified term. Unquestionably, He is the Dignified, the Forgiving.
[39:38] If you were to ask them, “Who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth?” they will say, “God.” Say, “So have you ever seen what you call upon besides God? If God willed any harm for me, can they lift His harm? Or if He willed mercy for me, can they withhold His mercy?” Say, “God is sufficient for me. Those who do trust, they put their trust in Him.”
[39:44] Say, “All intercession belongs to God.” To Him belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, then to Him you will be returned.
[39:46] Say, “O God, Initiator of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will surely judge between Your servants regarding that in which they used to differ.”
[39:63] To Him belong the keys of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. As for those who disbelieve in God’s revelations, they are the losers.
[39:67] They did not value God according to His true worth. The whole earth is within His grip on the Day of Resurrection, and the OUTER SPACES ( not universes) are folded up in His right hand. Glory to Him and exalted is He, far above whatever they associate with Him.
[39:68] The horn was blown whereupon all who are in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth were struck unconscious, except those whom God willed to spare. Then it was blown another time whereupon they all arose, looking on.
[40:37] the pathways to the OUTER SPACES (not heavens), so that I may take a look at the god of Moses, for indeed, I think he is a liar.” Thus, the evil works of Pharaoh were adorned in his eyes and he was blocked from the path. Pharaoh’s scheming led to nothing but ruin.
[40:57] The creation of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth is far greater than the creation of mankind, but most people do not know.
[40:64] God is the One who rendered the earth a resting place for you, and the GEOSPACE (not sky) a structure. He designed you and designed you well, and He provided you with good things. Such is God your Lord. Blessed be God, the Lord of the worlds.
[41:11] Then He took hold of the GEOSPACE (not heaven) while it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth, “Come willingly or unwillingly.” They said, “We come willingly.”
[41:12] So He ordained them seven SPACES (not heaven) in two days, and inspired in every OUTER SPACE (not heaven) its commands. We adorned the lowest universe with lamps and guarded it. Such is the determination of the Dignified, the Knowledgeable.
[42:4] To Him belongs what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth. He is the Most High, the Great.
[42:5] The OUTER SPACES (not heavens) almost shatter from above THEM (the layers of outer space), and the angels glorify their Lord with praise and ask forgiveness for those in the earth. Indeed, God is the Forgiver, the Merciful.
[42:11] He is the Initiator of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He created for you spouses from among yourselves, as well as pairs of the livestock. In that way, He multiplies you. There is nothing that is akin to Him. He is the Hearer, the Seer.
[42:12] To Him belong the keys of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He extends the provision for whom He wills, and withholds it. He is Knowledgeable of all things.
[42:29] Among His signs is the creation of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and the creatures He has spread in them. He is Capable of gathering them if He wills.
[42:49] To God belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He creates whatever He wills. He grants females to whom He wills, and He grants the males to whom He wills.
[42:53] the path of God, to whom belongs what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth. Absolutely, all matters are returned to God.
[43:9] If you were to ask them, “Who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth?” They would say, “The Dignified, the Knowledgeable created them.”
[43:82] Glory to the Lord of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, the Lord of the Throne, far above what they portray.
[43:84] It is He who is God in the UNIVERSE (not heaven) and God in the earth. He is the Wise, the Knowledgeable.
[43:85] Blessed is the One to whom belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them, and with whom lies the knowledge of the Hour, and to whom you will be returned.
[44:7] He is the Lord of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them, if only you had certainty.
[44:29] Neither the UNIVERSE (not heaven) nor the earth wept over them, and they were not granted respite.
[44:38] We did not create the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them for mere play.
[45:3] Indeed, in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth are signs for the believers.
[45:13] And He subjected for you what is in the GEOSPACE (not heavens) and what is in the earth, all from Him. In that are signs for people who reflect.
[45:22] And God created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth with truth so that every self would be repaid for what it earned, and they will not be wronged.
[45:27] To God belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and on the Day the Hour comes to pass, on that Day, the falsifiers will lose.
[45:36] So praise be to God, the Lord of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and Lord of the earth; Lord of the worlds.
[45:37] All greatness belongs to Him in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He is the Dignified, the Wise.
[46:3] We did not create the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them except with truth and for a specified term. Those who disbelieve turn away from what they have been warned about.
[46:4] Say, “Have you ever seen what you call upon besides God? Show me what they have created from the earth! Or do they own a share of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens)? Bring me a book before this one or a trace of knowledge, if you are truthful.”
[46:33] Have they not seen that God, who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and has not tired by creating them, is able to bring the dead to life? Yes indeed; He is Capable of all things.
[48:4] He is the One who brought down tranquillity into the hearts of the believers so that they would increase in faith, on top of their own faith. To God belong the soldiers of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. God is Knowledgeable, Wise.
[48:7] To God belong the soldiers of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. God is Dignified, Wise.
[48:14] To God belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills. God is Forgiver, Merciful.
[49:16] Say, “Are you teaching God your religion when God knows what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and when God is Knowledgeable of all things?”
[49:18] God knows the unseen in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and God is Seer of what you do.
[50:38] We have created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth and what is between them in six days, and no weariness has touched Us.
[51:7] By the GEOSPACE (not heaven) that has pathways,
[51:22] In the SKY (not heaven) lies your provision and that which you are promised.
[51:23] By the Lord of the GEOSPACE (not heaven) and the earth, it is certainly the truth, as true as the fact that you speak.
[51:47] And the UNIVERSE (not Heaven) , We constructed it with might, and We are expanding it.
[52:9] On the Day when the SKY (not heaven) will sway violently
[52:36] Or did they create the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth? Rather, they have no certainty.
[53:26] How many an angel is there in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) whose intercession is of no benefit at all except after God gives permission to whom He pleases and approves of?
[53:31] To God belongs what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth. He will repay those who commit evil for their works and will reward those who do good deeds with what is best.
[54:11] So We opened the gates of the SKY (not heavens) with pouring water,
[55:7] And the UNIVERSE (not heaven), He raised it and set the balance.
[55:29] Imploring Him are those in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. Every day He sees to some matter.
[55:33] O tribes of jinn and humans, if you are able to penetrate through the regions of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, then go ahead and penetrate. You will not penetrate without authorisation.
[55:37] Then when the UNIVERSE (not heaven) is split apart, it became a rose as in a painting.
[57:1] Glorifying God is what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He is the Dignified, the Wise.
[57:2] To Him belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He brings to life and puts to death, and He is Capable of all things.
[57:4] He is the One who created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth in six days, then settled on the Throne. He knows what goes into the earth and what comes out of it, and what comes down from the sky and what ascends unto it. He is with you wherever you may be. God is Seer of what you do.
[57:5] To Him belongs the sovereignty of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and to God all matters are returned.
[57:10] And what is the matter with you that you do not give in the cause of God, when to God belongs the inheritance of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth? Those among you who gave and fought before the conquest are not the same as those who gave and fought afterwards; they are greater in rank. Nevertheless, God has promised good things to each of them. God is All-Aware of what you do.
[57:21] Race towards forgiveness from your Lord and a Paradise whose width is as the width of the UNIVERSE (not heaven) and the earth. It is prepared for those who believe in God and His messengers. Such is God’s favour; He bestows it upon whom He wills. God is the Possessor of great favour.
[58:7] Do you not see that God knows what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth? No three people can confer secretly without Him being their fourth, nor five without Him being their sixth, nor less than that or more without Him being with them wherever they may be. Then He will inform them on the Day of Resurrection of what they had done. Indeed, God is Knowledgeable of all things.
[59:1] Glorifying God is what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth. He is the Dignified, the Wise.
[59:24] He is God: the Creator, the Initiator, the Designer. To Him belong the Beautiful Names. Glorifying Him is what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth. He is the Dignified, the Wise.
[61:1] Glorifying God is what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth, and He is the Dignified, the Wise.
[63:7] They are the ones who say, “Do not give anything to those who are with the messenger of God until they break away.” To God belong the treasuries of the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, but the hypocrites do not understand.
[64:1] Glorifying God is what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and what is in the earth. To Him belongs the sovereignty and to Him belongs the praise, and He is Capable of all things.
[64:3] He created the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth with truth, and He designed you, and He designed you well, and to Him is the ultimate destination.
[64:4] He knows what is in the OUTER SPACES (not heavens) and the earth, and He knows what you conceal and what you declare. God is Knowledgeable of what the chests hold.
[65:12] God is the One who created seven OUTER SPACES (not universes), and of the earth their like. The command descends among them so that you would know that God is Capable of all things and that God has encompassed all things in knowledge.
[67:5] We adorned the lowest OUTER SPACE -> GALAXY (not universe / heaven) with lamps and placed in it projectiles against the devils, and We prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze.
[67:16] Do you feel confident that the One who is in UNIVERSE (not heaven) will not cause the earth to swallow you up as it starts to sway?
[67:17] Or do you feel confident that the One who is in UNIVERSE (not heaven) will not send upon you a shower of stones? You will know then the meaning of My warning.
[69:16] The UNIVERSE ,(not heaven) was split apart, for on that Day, it was indeed frail.
[71:15] Do you not see how God created seven OUTER SPACES (not universes / heavens) in layers,
[72:8] And we felt our way through the UNIVERSE (not heaven) and found it filled with fierce guards and projectiles.
[73:18] The UNIVERSE (not heaven) will shatter therefrom. His promise will be fulfilled.
[77:9] and when the UNIVERSE (not heaven) is split open,
[78:19] The GEOSPACE (not heaven) was opened and became gateways.
