In the Quran there is some light that you cannot see. Skeptics claim that whoever wrote the Quran made a mistake; we can see everything that reaches our eyes. Today scientists confirm the existence of invisible spectrum of light.
Most of the electromagnetic spectrum is actually invisible.
Electromagnetic spectrum
The types of electromagnetic radiation are broadly classified into the following classes (regions, bands or types):
1) Gamma radiation
2) X-ray radiation
3) Ultraviolet radiation
4) Visible radiation
5) Infrared radiation
6) Terahertz radiation
7) Microwave radiation
8) Radio waves
This classification goes in the increasing order of wavelength, which is characteristic of the type of radiation.

Visible light constitutes a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which means we cannot see most of the light in the universe.
This is an example of infrared light that we cannot see. This was known recently, however this was portrayed in the Quran 1400 years before it was discovered.
I swear by what you see, and by what you do not see.
٣٨ فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ
٣٩ وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
God swears by light that we see and by light that we cannot see. Today we know that most of light cannot be seen by the naked eye.
(According to the Bible, God created the Rainbow 4000 years ago at the time of Noah (Genesis 9:12-13). This turned-out to be false. The rainbow is a phenomena caused by the interaction of light with water droplets. The characteristics of light and how it interacts with other substances didn't change since the Big Bang, 13.7 bln years ago.)
