QUR'AN AND SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE (WITH ) A BRIEF BACKGROUND TO THE HOLY QUR'AN




QUR'AN AND SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE (WITH ) A BRIEF BACKGROUND TO THE HOLY QUR'AN



by Dr. A. Zahoor and Dr. Z. Haq


This page is for those Muslims as well as non-Muslims who wish to reflect upon select passages from the Holy Qur'an, clearly defining and referring to a variety of subjects on the space, time, planets, stars, anatomy, zoology, and other sciences. The manner and style of description are in the style of divine mercy so that it is comprehendible to all levels of people (the less educated and the well educated). Each can find a depth of the meaning to one's capability and comprehension and can benefit oneself and the humanity at large. In many places, the Qur'an uses such phrases as 'do they not think,' 'do they not ponder,' or 'reflect,' and asks the reader 'to enquire about certain statements to those who are knowledgeable.' The style of the Qur'an is to invite to reason and common sense. The more one researches on such statements the more deeper meaning one gets.

Allah, the Almighty, says: [Alif­Lam­Mim. The Romans have been defeated in the lowest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious within three to nine years.](Ar-Rum:1-2)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [Surely! Those who disbelieved in Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) We shall burn them in Fire. As often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them for other skins that they may taste the punishment. Truly, Allah is Ever Most Powerful, All­Wise.] (An-Nisa’: 56)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [Nay! If he (Abu Jahl) ceases not, We will catch him by the forehead. A lying, sinful forehead!] (Al-`Alaq: 16)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [What is the matter with you, [that you fear not Allah (His punishment), and] you hope not for reward (from Allah or you believe not in His Oneness). While He has created you in (different) stages.] (Nuh:13-14)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [Say (O Muhammad), I find not in that which has been inspired to me anything forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be Maytah (a dead animal) or blood poured forth (by slaughtering or the like), or the flesh of swine (pork, etc.) for that surely is filth, or impious (unlawful) meat (of an animal) which is slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allah (or has been slaughtered for idols, etc., or on which Allah's Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering). But whosoever is forced by necessity without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits, (for him) certainly, your Lord is Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful.] (Al-An`am: 145)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [And mountains are as pegs.] (An-Naba’: 7)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light.] (Al-Furqan: 61)
Allah, the Almighty, says: [By Heaven with its returning system.] (At-Tariq:11)
Allah, the Almighty, said: [Or (the unbelievers' state) is like the darkness of a fathomless sea which is covered by waves above which are waves above which are clouds, layers of darkness, one upon the other. If he puts out his hand, he can scarcely see it. Those God gives no light to, they have no light.]
Allah, the Almighty, says: [So verily, I swear by the stars that recede (i.e. disappear during the day and appear during the night). And by the (cleaning) stars that move swiftly and hide themselves.]
Allah, the Almighty, says: [And whomsoever Allah wills to guide, He opens his breast to Islam; and whomsoever He wills to send astray, He makes his breast closed and constricted, as if he is climbing up to the sky.]
Allah, the Almighty, says: [He has let loosed the two seas meeting together. Between them is a barrier which none of them can transgress. Then which of the Blessings of your Lord will you both (jinn and men) deny? Out of them both come out pearl and coral.]
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Never does sexual perversion become widespread and publicly known in certain people without them being overtaken by plague and disease that never happened to their ancestors who came before them.
Allah, the Almighty, says: And it is He Who has let free the two seas (kinds of water), one palatable and sweet, and the other salty and bitter, and He has set a barrier and a complete partition between them. (Al-Furqan: 53)
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Use this black seed regularly, because it has a 'shifaa' (cure) for every disease, except death.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Everyone has been created with three hundred and sixty joints. Whoever mentions Allah's greatness (says Allahu Akbar), praises Allah, extols Allah, and seeks forgiveness from Allah and removes stones from the path of the people, enjoins what is good and forbids evil to the amount of those three hundred and sixty joints, he walks on that Day (of Judgment) having distanced himself from the Fire.
Allah, the Almighty, says: (He said): O Yusuf (Joseph), the man of truth! Explain to us (the dream) of seven fat cows whom seven lean ones were devouring, and of seven green ears of corn, and (seven) others dry, that I may return to the people, and that they may know. Yusuf said: For seven consecutive years, you shall sow as usual and that (the harvest) which you reap you shall leave in ears, (all) - except a little of it which you may eat. Then will come after that, seven hard (years), which will devour what you have laid by in advance for them, (all) except a little of that which you have guarded (stored). Then thereafter will come a year in which people will have abundant rain and in which they will press (wine and oil). (Yusuf: 45-49)
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: If you hear of an outbreak of plague in a land, do not enter it; but if the plague breaks out in a place while you are in it, do not leave that place.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: You see the believers as regards their being merciful among themselves and showing love among themselves and being kind to each other, resembling one body, so that, if any part of the body complains, the whole body shares (Tada`a) the sleeplessness (insomnia) and fever along with it.
the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: The whole body of the son of Adam will be eaten by dust except `ajb adh-dhanab (coccyx) for he was created from it and his body will be reconstructed starting with it.
