Could multiple universe really exist?

Physicist, particularly for those who are in the fields of theoretical physics, cosmology, particle physics as well as astrophysics are in a surge of finding the theory of everything. Well, what is theory of everything and who started the research? This theory is said to be a single theory that can unify all four fundamental forces in this physical world as well as explaining the mechanism of the universe since the birth of it(the Big Bang). The work of finding the theory officially came into its debut to the scientific community of the world after the death of Albert Einstein. This was due to the mysterious unfinished paperworks on the desk of the late Albert Einstein. Soon it was discovered that the incomplete manuscripts were in fact the research work of the theory of everything. Now, the leading theory(and only theory, so they say) that fits with the characteristics or the theory of everything is string theory. Further information on string theory can be followed through this link. The theory combines with another theory, the supergravity theory which works in 11 dimensions, instead of 10 dimensions(which was preceded during the early development of string theory) to form the M-theory or membrane theory.

It is said that this theory also mentions about the existence of parallel universe, or multiple universe(multiverse). There is an interesting question that lingers in the back of my head. Do the parallel universes coincide with the unseen world(alam ghaib) of which Islam stated its existence? Or is it not and it is utterly and completely different? I can't say much on this, as my knowledge is still much, much shallow. Does the Al-Quran permit this theory? I don't know. Maybe, or maybe not. Thus, I hope, I can find the answer later in the future, InsyaAllah.

Below is a documentary about parallel universe and string theory, a production of BBC. Hope you enjoy it. :)

Note: You can watch the documentary via youtube.com directly by just clicking at the video screen. It's better you do so as this documentary is fractionated into 5 episodes. It'll spend you less time on the loading period if you open those 5 episodes(5 different browsers) simultaneously.

weh, aku pun tercurious pasal ni, tp tkdelah smpi aku tahu ade string theory kebenda, HUHU

btw, ko tahu en yg scientists barat nak recreate the evolution of bigbang, if im not mistaken, hurmmmmm.

serious cuak dgn dunia zaman sekarng,*tkde kaitan sgt. HEHE

ps; i'll wait for ur discoveries and theories later in future, AMIIN ! ((:

yg pasal big bang tu...tade la bermaksud nk wat bigbang besar-besaran...dia macam microscale big bang..*gila kau nk wat big bang..mana nk carik energy segabak tu?
diorang buat guna particle accelarator(paling berkuasa(maximum energy) 7 TeV per particle..bile collide kan ngn particle stu lagi jadi 14 TeV(1 micro Joule)...(ble convert kan jadi Joule mngkin nmpk kecil, tp kene igt ni energy di peringkat particle)
...

aa kiamat? haha ntah..tkkan tau ble...tp tkkn kita nk dok diam tunggu smpi dtg?hehh.. -_-"
