You are attaching time periods, whereas there is no mention of how much time it took,
I wonder how you could not see that Quran has itself attached the Time to it when Quran said "Both of them existed at same time and then separated".
Different Muslims come up with different excuses, but all of them are the lame.
For example, your other Muslim brother came up with the excuse that this verse is Mutashabeh. While this verse was not Mutashabeh for your Ulama (including the Ahmadi Muslim's Ulama, to whom you follow) when they were extracting Big Bang from this same verse.
and obviously the purpose has never been to describe the whole creation process.
Obviously the writer of the Quran had no ability to describe the creation process. So, firstly very less was described in Quran, and all that too completely full of scientific errors.
And the word mentioned is Skies not heavens.
Firstly, it is not my translation, but your own Muslim translators. Secondly, it does not matter what word Quran used, while result is the same.
You are talking about one universe or one world or Earth whereas Quran has mentioned there may be more.
Again a lame excuse, while Quran used the word السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ i.e. plural form of skies, which indicate whole universe. Therefore, all the Muslim Ulama up till now took from it the creation of whole universe.
You see the problem is you place too much importance on different kind of scholars the ones who read whereas I consider scientists and researchers to be the scholars mentioned in Quran .......... Zakir Naik is a valid scholar for you ...... whereas Maurice Bucaille would be a scholar for me.
This is not only Zakir Naik, but also your own Ahmadi Ulama who are extracting the same Qruanic Science as Zakir Naik is doing and there is hardly any difference. Similarly, Maurice Bucaille is also extracting the same quranic science as Zakir Naik and Ahmadi Ulama.
