| Summary: | The holy Qur’an, the main source of Islamic faith is a
book believed by Muslims to be of completely divine origin.
Muslims believe the Quran to be the book of divine guidance
revealed from God to Muhammad through the angel Gabriel
over a period of twenty-three years and view the Quran as God's
final revelation to humanity. As such, Quran has solutions to all
the problems of humanity irrespective of how complex they may
be and in what age they occur. It deals with all human life from
cradle to death. While some worldview highly depend on human
experience to have solution for scientific knowledge, and while
some religious tradition only rely on scientific method
(observation, experiment, skepticism, hypothesis and theory)to
obtain the knowledge of natural phenomenon, the scripture of
Islam (Qur’an) which is also a book of knowledge and science
seems to have already proven these scientific fact for long
centuries. Thus, this humble paper by adopting textual approach
will examine the scientific knowledge vis-à-vis in the Qur’an,
with particular reference to Embryology and astronomy. |
