NOTE THAT: - THE QURAN IS NOT A

BOOK OF SCIENCE, BUT THAT IT IS


THE BOOK OF SIGNS

Universe:
A mobile phone is clearly something that was put together in an organized way,
so it would be rational to believe that it must have an organizer. In the same
way, when we see the order in the universe around us, isn’t it rational to say
that the universe has an organizer?
“We shall show them our signs in the universe and within themselves, until
it becomes clear to them that this is the truth. Is it not enough that your
lord is the witness of all things?” [Quran, 41:53]
Origin of life:
The fact that living things consist mostly of water was discovered only after the
invention of the microscope. In the deserts of Arabia, the last thing someone
would have guessed is that all life came from water.
“We made every living thing from water? will they not believe?”
[Quran, 21:30]
Embryology:
“We created man from an extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a
place of settlement, firmly fixed. Then We made the drop into an “alaqah”
(leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then We made the “alaqah” into a
“mudghah” (chewed substance)…” (Quran 23:12-14).
Professor Emeritus Keith L. Moore (one of the world’s most prominent
scientists in the fields of anatomy and embryology) : " It is clear to me that
these statements must have come to Muhammad from God, because almost
all of this knowledge was not discovered until many centuries later.
Sky’s protection:
The sky protects the earth from the lethal rays of the sun. If the sky did not
exist then the sun’s radiation would have killed off all life on earth. It also acts
like a blanket wrapped around the earth, to protect it from the freezing cold of
space. The temperature just above the sky is approximately -270oC.
If this temperature was to reach earth, then the planet would freeze over
instantly. The sky also protects life on earth by warming the surface through
heat retention.
“We made the sky a protective ceiling. And yet they are turning away from
Our signs!” (Quran 21:32)
Iron:
Iron is not natural to the earth. It did not form on the earth but came down to
earth from outer space. This may sound strange but it’s true. Scientists have
found that billions of years ago the earth was stuck by meteorites. These
meteorites were carrying Iron from distant stars which had exploded (M. E.
Walrath, History of the Earth’s Formation)
“We sent down Iron with its great inherent strength and its many benefits
for humankind.” (Quran 57:25)
Seas and Oceans:
Modern Science has discovered that in the places where two different seas
meet, there is a barrier between them. This barrier divides the two seas so that
each sea has its own temperature, salinity, and density (1) [Principles of
Oceanography, Davis, pp. 92-93]
“He has set free the two seas meeting together. There is a barrier between them.
They do not transgress.” (Quran, 55:19-20).
Sun’s orbit:
The belief that the Sun is stationary was widespread amongst astronomers until
the 20th century. It is now a well-known scientific fact that the Sun is not
stationary, but is moving in an orbit around the center of our Milky Way
galaxy.
“It is He who created night and day, the sun and the moon, each
floating in its orbit.” [Quran, 21:33]
Mountains:
A book titled ‘Earth’ by Geophysicist Frank Press (Earth (ISBN 0716717433)
by Press, Frank, Siever, Raymond. W.H. Freeman, c1986.) explains that
mountains are like stakes, and are buried deep under the surface of the earth.
Mount Everest, the height of which is approximately 9 km above ground, has a
root deeper than 125 km.
“Did we not make the earth a resting place? and the mountains as stakes?”
[Quran, 78:6-7]
Universe expanding:
The fact that the universe is expanding was discovered in the last century. The
physicist Stephen Hawking in his book ‘A Brief History of Time’ writes, “The
discovery that the universe is expanding was one of the great intellectual
revolutions of the 20th century.” “And it is We who have built the universe
with [Our creative] power and keep expanding it.” [ Quran, 51:47]
Skin pain receptors:
For a long time, it was thought that the sense of feeling and pain was dependent
on the brain. However, it has been discovered that there are pain receptors
present in the skin. Without these pain receptors, a person would not be able to
feel pain.
“We shall send those who reject our revelations to the (hell) fire. When
their skins have been burned away, we shall replace them with new ones so
that they may continue to feel the pain: God is almighty, all-wise.” [Quran
4:56]

Is it possible for a man who don’t know how to read and


write, to Quote those scientific facts to a book 1440 years
ago? Answer is No. Then who wrote it? It must be the words
from Almighty the creator of this Universe.
