However, according to Einstein's theory of General Relativity, the speed of light appears to vary with the intensity of the gravitational field. But 1400 years ago it was stated in the Quran (Koran, the book of Islam) that angels travel in one day the same distance that the moon travels in 1000 lunar years, that is, 12000 Lunar Orbits / Earth Day. Outside gravitational fields 12000 Lunar Orbits / Earth Day turned out to be the known speed of light!See proof: http://www.speed-light.info/angels_speed_of_light.htm#speed_of_light_12000
