Islam and Science
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 392 | Size: 1 MB
Amongst us, human beings, none is completely devoid of the innate
feeling – even from time to time – that there is a Creating God behind
this universe. Such a feeling may be frustrating and people may be
prevented from responding to it by the teachings they get as a result of
their belonging to a particular environment, their indulgence in
earthly life and cheap pleasure naturally, the Almighty Creator should
differ from us in all respects:
لَيۡسَ كَمِثۡلِهِۦ شَىۡءٌ۬ۖ
“And unto Him the like is not”(Ash-Shûrâ : 11)
Most people could not be easily induced
by this sincere feeling of the existence of the Creator to follow the
right path leading to Him. Thus, Allâh [God’s name in Islâm] sent
Prophets and Messengers – Allâh’s prayer and peace be upon them – with
Divine support in the form of miracles suitable to their environment,
until the advent of the last of His Messengers,Prophet Muhammad, who
emerged after the maturity of the human thinking when the age of science
was immanent; Allâh supported him with the Qur’ân to be an Eternal
Miracle.
