He argues that western astronomers’ theories that the sun is full of explosions and the ozone layer is depleting are baseless.

“I do not need a device to see what is happening on the sun and moon. I can see it with my own eyes,” Al Subaihi, a Yemeni who has lived in Abu Dhabi for several years, told Arab News on Wednesday.

Al Subaihi, who does not wear spectacles or shades while looking at the sun, challenges astronomers to prove their arguments. On his part, he is ready to organize astronomy sessions with experts to prove his theories.

“Western scientists claim that the sun is full of explosions and fire, but it is not true. I can see many things that they cannot see through their devices. The sun does not explode. Behind the sun are four circles filled with gold-colored lava that is exploding. I have seen the circles with my eyes and I am ready to prove this if any scientist wants to see,” he explained.

“The sun is free of gas, explosions, neutrons, fire and smoke,” he added.

Al Subaihi says he can feel the movement of the sun and moon across the sky and the rotation of the earth. “But how can I say this? If I say so, people will say that I am insane,” he said.

Al Subaihi spends hours in the desert to watch the sun and stars at dawn and dusk. “I don’t have supernatural powers but it is a blessing from God. I can watch the sun for hours without any problem and see many things that you can’t see,” he says.

“The sun is surrounded by four circles. In a circle I can see dust and other things. The sun also spreads its light to earth and other areas. People can see the sun from one direction, but I can see some other suns on top of the sun,” Al Subaihi explained.

“I wish to formulate a device that exposes what is concealed behind the sun. The device shall enable us to see the lava filled circles circulating on the top of the sun. The public should know the truth and this is my great wish,” said Al Subaihi, who never went to school.

Instead of going to school, he was watching the sun and stars during his childhood. “When I was a child I used to sit alone and keep staring at the sky,” he said.

Al Subaihi says that he is not looking for any financial benefit but wants to share his knowledge and what he sees.

He said that he also tried to figure out the secret of the dark part of the moon. After several experiments, he claims to have found out that the dark side was simply a hollow, or a huge space with many hollows inside it.

On the ozone layer, he has his own view. “Astronomers claim that the ozone layer gets affected by harmful chemicals and pollution. It is totally wrong. Any object that travels in the air never reaches the layer. The hole is not getting bigger. It is a part of the nature and nothing has changed at all,” Al Subaihi said.
