When we read the Qur'an we see that the most fundamental matters that
Muslims have toknow and understand are set out quite explicitly. Allah
describes His creation in the Qur'an. He describes satan,reveals what
is lawful and unlawful and tells usof the lives of the prophets. It is
revealed how the life of this world is a test and how our true homes
are in the Hereafter. Paradise and Hell are described inthe Qur'an and
people are warned against the torments in the latter.
In addition to all these basic issues, the Qur'an also contains
special signs that Allah has deliberately concealed in it for
believers. Through these signs, ourLord tells believers how they
should behave toward deniers, the best way of preaching the word and
what they must do if the moral values of the Qur'an are to rule the
world. These signs are only, of course,comprehensible to thoseservants
who can look atthe Qur'an with the eyes of the heart and good
conscience, who can grasp the radiance and message of the Qur'an, and
with whom Allah is well pleased. This is just one of the hundreds of
miracles of the Qur'an.
Our Almighty Lord Makes Science Obligatory for Believers in the Qur'an
The presence in the Qur'an of scientific and mathematical miracles is
itself a miracle that confirms the sublime nature of the Qur'an, its
miraculous aspect and the fact that it is a divinescripture. But in
additionto that specific miracle, when we look at the verses of the
Qur'an we see that Allah makes science obligatory for believers. Allah
advises believers to reflect on the extraordinary creation they
witness and to learn the knowledge of the creation of the Earth
andsky. In Surah Al 'Imran our Lord says:
Those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their sides,
and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the Earth: "Our
Lord,You have not created this for nothing. Glory beto You! So
safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire." (Surah Al 'Imran, 191)
Scientific development and progress proves the sublime and
extraordinary nature of Allah's creation in the most perfect way. The
more that people of good conscience possessed of this knowledge deepen
in science, the more amazed they are by Allah's sublime artistry. Just
a single cell, the glorious DNA within a single cell or a single
protein is enough to see the power and might of Allah. Almighty Allah
is powerful enough to create worlds within worlds, to create all
things from nothing, and gloriously shows His sublime omniscience by
creating atoms in tiny specks of space and making atoms, which
themselves consist of 99% empty space, the natural causes of matter
itself. Almighty Allah is powerful enough to bring the Earth and sky
into being through a single explosion, out of nothing, out of
emptiness. Almighty Allah reveals this sublimecreation, the Big Bang
miracle in other words, in this verse:
As for heaven – We built it with great power and gave it its vast
expanse. (Surat adh-Dhariyat, 47)
Almighty Allah has made science essential for Muslims in order for
them to comprehend and see His matchless artistry and the glories in
the entities He creates. Those who deepen in science with the
knowledge of the Qur'an will also growin faith since they will witness
His omniscience. Allah tells us in another verse:
But those of them who are firmly rooted in knowledge, and the
believers, believe in what has been sent down to you and what was sent
down before you: those who establishprayer and pay alms, and believe
in Allah and the Last Day – We will pay such people an immense wage.
(Surat an-Nisa', 162)
For that reason, Allah advises true Muslims to learn and research the
scientific facts and to become aware of what is all around them:
Have they not looked at the sky above them: howWe structured it and
made it beautiful and how there are no fissures in it? And the
Earth: how We stretched it out and cast firmly embedded mountains onto
it and caused luxuriant plants of every kind to grow in it, an
instruction and a reminder for every penitent human being. (Surah Qaf,
6-8)
Have they not looked at the camel – how it was created? And at the sky
–how it was raised up? And at the mountains – how they were embedded?
And at the Earth – how it was smoothed out? So remind them! You are
only a reminder. (Surat al-Ghashiyya, 17-21)
Do they not see the things Allah has created, casting their shadows to
the right and to the left, prostrating themselves before Allah in
complete humility? (Surat an-Nahl,48)
In the creation of the heavens and Earth, and the alternation of the
night and day, and the ships which sail the seas to people's benefit,
and the water which Allah sends down from the sky– by which He brings
theEarth to life when it was dead and scatters about in it creatures
of every kind – and the varying direction of the winds, and the clouds
subservient between heaven and Earth, there are signs for people
whouse their intellect. (Surat al-Baqara, 164)
In the creation of the heavens and the Earth, and the alternation of
night and day, there are signs for people with intelligence. (Surah Al
'Imran, 190)
Among His signs is the creation of the heavens and Earth and the
variety of your languages and colors. There are certainly signs in
that for every being. (Surat ar-Rum, 22)
Among His signs is the creation of the heavens and Earth and all the
creatures He has spread about in them. And He has the power to gather
them together whenever He wills. (Surat ash-Shura, 29)
As believers grasp and see the scientific facts and grow in faith by
studying Allah's stunningartistry they will also come to possess the
means of overcoming, using science and knowledge, the snares of those
who slander Allah using supposed evidence. Those who adopt chance,
nature and matter as their gods by seeking to deny Allah's magnificent
creation will be defeated in the face of the artistry displayed by our
Lord and their false claims thus demolished. All the superstitious
evidence brought forward by these peopleis eliminated by science and
their empty struggles against Allah are all for nothing.
Allah advises people to reflect on creation, and the miraculous
systems and each of the extraordinary 100 trillion cells that emerge
in so doing by themselves rebut all these superstitious claims. Allah
advises us to consider the creation of the heavens, and His creation
through the BigBang and the extraordinary equilibrium in the universe
again eliminatethis superstitious way of thinking. Allah advises usto
look at the evidence in the Earth, and those glorious marvels of
creation, fossils, that emerge from it totally rebuts the claims of
Darwinism and materialism. Many more such proofs totally eliminate all
the plans and schemes that Darwinists and materialists come up with,
using so-called evidence, to oppose Allah.
One wise aspect behind the evidence for Allah's creation that
believers produce with knowledge and science is that it enables some
people who blindly and ignorantly believed other people with their
Darwinist and materialist mindsets to conclude, through the scientific
evidence, that Allah is the sole Creator. The scientific evidence
isinstrumental in these people seeing the omnipotence of Allah in the
things He creates and thus in coming to have faith.
A single tree, a single leaf or even a single seed is certainly enough
to see the glory and Absolute Existence of ourAlmighty Lord. But for
the pure and faithful who truly believe, seeing the
extraordinaryartistry in Allah's detail by way of science is a great
means whereby they can properly appreciate the might and greatness of
Allah. Itis for that reason that Almighty Allah has made science
obligatory for allbelievers.
