QURAN & MODERN SCIENCE
1. Quran is the ultimate miracle verifiable in
every age
2. This is an age of Science
3. Science is the study of universe
4. Universe is the work of Allah
5. Quran is the word of Allah
6. No contradiction between the two
QURAN: THE ULTIMATE MIRACLE
• The Quraan is the truth from the Almighty
Allah. As such, it is in harmony and predates
modern scientific discoveries.
• The Quraan is primarily a book of faith rather
than a book of science. Non-the-less, Allah has
embedded signs in it that endorse its
authenticity.
