Lowest point on Earth.

1400 years ago nobody knew about the lowest point on Earth however it was portrayed in the Quran.

After the Romans were defeated by the Persians the Quran correctly predicted that they will be victorious again. This battle took place near the Dead Sea.

"Dead Sea

As of 2019, the lake's surface is 430.5 metres (1,412 ft) below sea level,[4][7] making its shores the lowest land-based elevation on Earth."


Wikipedia, Dead Sea, 2019 

The lowest point on Earth is at the Dead Sea.

Quran 30:2-3

The Romans were defeated in the lowest of land and they will be, after this defeat, victorious again

٢ غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ
٣ فِي أَدْنَى الْأَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُونَ

Adna in Arabic أَدْنَى has two meanings: the nearest and the lowest. Today we know that the Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth (423 m or 1388 ft. below sea level).

How could an illiterate man who lived 1400 years ago have known where is the lowest point on Earth?
