Claim: Video of one ocean with two different colours talked about in Quran.
Fact-check: This video showing meeting of two water bodies with colour contrast, is not unique, and happens because of difference in sediment loads - FACTLY
Verdict: meeting of waters is in brazil, where the muddy amazon river meets the clear tapajos river in santarem. the difference in colour is because of the sediment load carried by the respective rivers. the amazon river carries huge quantities of fine sediments from high andes mountains, whereas tapajos river carries almost no sediment hence its water is clear. this meeting of water bodies and colour contrasts are not unique to only this region in brazil, this can be seen in other parts of the world as well. reportedly, in some islamic verses in surah ar-rahman, it is said that two seas meet side by side, both having a barrier. this is interpreted in a generic sense, not specific to the viral video. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
