Science Proves the Holy
Quran and Islam as True and Authentic !
Allah Almighty Said:
"We
will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until
it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient
as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran, 41:53)"
Very Important Discovery:
A
new star forming out of a cloud of gas and dust (nebula), which is one of the
remnants of the "smoke" that was the origin of the whole universe. (The Space Atlas, Heather and Henbest,
page 50)
Allah
Almighty said: "Then He turned to
the heaven when it was smoke...(The Noble Quran, 41:11)"The Noble Quran on the
Origin of the UniverseOnly
Islam claims that the universe was originated from Dust and Hot Gas, or Smoke.
Allah
Almighty Said: "And when the heaven splitteth asunder and becometh ROSY LIKE RED HIDE - (The
Noble Quran, 55:37)"What Allah Almighty is Saying here is that when
Galaxies explode, they form a red-rose-shaped explosion. He is also telling us that
the Universe will all turn into red exploded galaxies looking like red or reddish roses when the Day of Judgement happens.
The explosion of Stars (FORMING RED ROSES), Galaxies and the
Universe in the Noble Quran had been confirmed by NASA
The scientific miracles of the
Qur’an in context:
It must be pointed out that the
basic purpose of the Qur’an is to show
humanity the proper way to attain
guidance and to call people towards it.
Allah says:
“Verily, this Qur’an guides to
that which is most just and right and gives glad
tidings to the believers who work
deeds of righteousness that they shall have a
great reward.”
Thus, all the things that the
Qur’an mentions about the signs of Allah’s power
in the human body and in the
universe, it is only for the fulfillment of this
greater goal. Allah says:
“We will show them Our signs in
the universe and in their own selves, until it
becomes manifest to them that this
is the truth. Is it not sufficient with your
Lord that He is a Witness over all
things?”
The value of these indications of
the physical world becomes clear in our
present, scientific age, because
these indications are proof that the Qur’ân is
Allah’s speech and not the speech
of a human being. For how could Muhammad (may
the peace and blessings of Allah
be upon him) have known these things with such
detail and accuracy when the means
for knowing them did not even exist, and
moreover, he was an illiterate
denizen of the desert?
The agreement between scientific
facts and what the Qur’an says about the
physical world shows that the
Qur’an came from the Creator. It is impossible for
any established scientific fact to
be at variance with the Qur’an, in the same
way that the words and deeds of a
rational person should not contradict. The
Qur’an is the speech of Allah and
the universe is His Creation, thus both of
them have the same origin and are
for the same purpose.
Perhaps this is the secret behind
all of the oaths in the Qur’an that come with
this meaning. Allah says:
“So I swear by the setting of the
stars – and this is truly a great oath if you
but knew – that this is indeed an
honorable recitation in a Book well-guarded
that none can touch but the
purified; a Revelation from the Lord of all the
worlds.”
The discussion that the Qur’an
gives about certain issues in physical science is
coming from the One who is
All-Knowing, Well-Acquainted with His Creation.
Therefore, even after human
knowledge has been renewed and the veil has been
lifted from the secrets of the
world, the Qur’ân remains in harmony with
scientific knowledge. Allah says:
“Say (O Muhammad): ‘It has been
sent down by Him Who knows the secrets of the
heavens and the Earth. Truly, He
is Oft-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.”
We are not saying that the Qur’an
is a textbook on chemistry, physics,
astronomy, or some other science,
but we are saying that the perspectives on the
universe that these sciences present
us with are in complete harmony with the
one presented by the Qur’ân in
every way.
This is very different from other
religious scriptures that have been authored
by people. They are a mixture of
truth and falsehood, vanity and earnest,
knowledge and ignorance.
This is why Islam has always been
at peace with science and actively encourages
scientific endeavors. Other
religions, to the contrary, have often been at war
with science, and this has had a
very detrimental effect on human history and
civilization.
The motions of the universe:
Allah says:
“Allah is He Who raised the
heavens without any pillars for you to see. Then He
mounted the Throne. He has
subjected the Sun and the Moon, each moving for a
term appointed. He manages and
regulates all affairs. He explains the signs in
detail that you may believe with
certainty in the meeting with your Lord. It is
He who spread out the Earth and
placed therein firm mountains and rivers, and He
made every kind of fruit in pairs.
He brings the night as a cover over the day.
Verily, in these things there are
signs for people who reflect.”
Allah says:
“He has created the heavens
without any pillars for you to see and has set on
the Earth firm mountains lest it
should shake with you. And He has scattered
therein moving creatures of every
kind. And We send down rainwater from the sky
and cause plants of every goodly
kind to grow therein. This is the Creation of
Allah. So show Me that which those
besides Me have created. Nay, the
transgressors are in manifest
error.”
These two verses – as well as
others – contain the following facts about the
physical world:
1. The heavens are suspended
without any pillar to be seen. The
astronomers say that centripetal
force and the force of gravity determine the
motions of the heavenly bodies.
These forces are the determining factors behind
the positions of the heavenly
bodies, not physical pillars.
2. The Sun and Moon are both in
motion, each having its own specific motion.
3. The mountains on the Earth’s
crust have a dampening effect on earthquakes.
4. The Earth is extended. This implies that it is round, because
extension is the only description
that applies to the surface of a sphere, for
whenever you try to determine the
limits of its surface, you find that it
continues on.
5. Rivers are placed on the Earth.
6. All forms of fruits exist in pairs. 7. Day and night are in continuous succession.
The Earth
In the Qur’an, the Earth is
described in numerous ways, all of which indicate
that it is round and that it is in
motion.
Allah says the following:
“And after that, He spread the
Earth out in motion.”
“By the Earth and Him who spread
it out going.”
The Earth is a spinning, roughly
spherical object in space, moving in two ways.
Its first motion is its orbit
around the Sun, and its second is its revolution
around its own axis. The
revolution of the Earth is the cause of day and night
and its motion around the Sun is
the cause of the seasons.
The motion of the Earth allows for
it to have the eco-system that it has and for
life as we know it to exist. For
this reason, Allah says:
“And after that, He spread the
Earth out in motion, And brought forth from it
its water and pasture and the
mountains He fixed firmly; a provision for you and
your cattle.”

Truth stands out clear from
Error (Qur'an 2:256)
PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh) IN
THE BIBLE
by Dr. Zakir Naik |
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Old Testament:
|
The Qur’an mentions in Surah Al-Araf chapter 7 verse 157:
"Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom
they find mentioned in their own (scriptures) in the law and the
Gospel".
|

MUHAMMAD (PBUH) PROPHESISED IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY:
|
Almighty God speaks to Moses in Book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse
18:
"I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren,
like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto
them all that I shall command him."
The Christians say that this prophecy refers to Jesus (pbuh)
because Jesus (pbuh) was like Moses (pbuh). Moses (pbuh) was a Jew, as well
as Jesus (pbuh) was a Jew. Moses (pbuh) was a Prophet and Jesus (pbuh) was
also a Prophet.
If these two are the only criteria for this prophecy to be
fulfilled, then all the Prophets of the Bible who came after
Moses (pbuh) such as Solomon, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Malachi, John the Baptist, etc. (pbut) will fulfill this prophecy since all were Jews as well as prophets.
However, it is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who is like Moses (pbuh):
|
i)
|
Both had a father and a mother, while Jesus (pbuh) was born
miraculously without any male intervention.
[Mathew 1:18 and Luke 1:35 and also Al-Qur'an 3:42-47]
|
ii)
|
Both were married and had children. Jesus (pbuh) according to the
Bible did not marry nor had children.
|
iii)
|
Both died natural deaths. Jesus (pbuh) has been raised up alive.
(4:157-158)
|
Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs
are brethren of Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac (pbut).
The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the
descendants of Isaac (pbuh).
Words in the mouth:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he
received from Almighty God he repeated them verbatim.
"I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren,
like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto
them all that I shall command him."
[Deuteronomy 18:18]
|
iv)
|
Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could
inflict capital punishment. Jesus (pbuh) said, "My kingdom is not of
this world." (John 18:36).
|
v)
|
Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime
but Jesus (pbuh) was rejected by his
people. John chapter 1 verse 11 states, "He came unto his own, but his own received him not." |
iv)
|
Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people. Jesus
(pbuh) according to the Bible did not bring any new laws. (Mathew 5:17-18).
|

|
It is Mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18:19
|
"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not harken
unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of
him."
|

|
Muhammad (pbuh) is prophesised in the book of Isaiah:
|
It is mentioned in the book of Isaiah chapter 29 verse 12:
"And the book is delivered to him that is not learned,
saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned."
When Archangel Gabrail commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying Iqra -
"Read", he replied, "I am not learned".
|

|
prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mentioned by name in the old testament:
|
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of
Solomon chapter 5 verse 16:
"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee
Bayna Jerusalem."
"His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This
is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters
of Jerusalem."
In the Hebrew language im is added for respect. Similarely im is
added after the name of Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) to make it Muhammadim. In English translation they have even translated the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as "altogether lovely", but in the Old Testament in Hebrew, the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is yet present. |
|
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the New Testament:
Al-Qur'an Chapter 61 Verse 6:
"And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said, 'O Children of
Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which
came) before me and giving glad tidings of a messenger to come after me,
whose name shall be Ahmed.' But when he came to them with clear signs, they
said, 'This is evident sorcery!' "
All the prophecies mentioned in the Old Testament regarding
Muhammad (pbuh) besides applying to the Jews also hold good for the
Christians.

|
John chapter 14 verse 16:
|
"And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide with you forever."
|
|
2.
|
Gospel of John chapter 15 verse 26:
|
"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you
from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which
proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me." |
|
3.
|
Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7:
|
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you
that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not
come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you".
"Ahmed" or "Muhammad" meaning "the one
who praises" or "the praised one" is almost the translation of
the
Greek word Periclytos. In the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, and 16:7. The word 'Comforter' is used in the English translation for the Greek word Paracletos which means advocate or a kind friend rather than a comforter. Paracletos is the warped reading for Periclytos. Jesus (pbuh) actually prophesised Ahmed by name. Even the Greek word Paraclete refers to the Prophet (pbuh) who is a mercy for all creatures.
Some Christians say that the Comforter mentioned in these
prophecies refers to the Holy Sprit. They fail to realise
that the prophecy clearly says that only if Jesus (pbuh) departs will the Comforter come. The Bible states that the Holy Spirit was already present on earth before and during the time of Jesus (pbuh), in the womb of Elizabeth, and again when Jesus (pbuh) was being baptised, etc. Hence this prophecy refers to none other than Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). |

Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 12-14:
|
"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear
them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth is
come, he will guide you unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me". |
|
The Sprit of Truth, spoken about in this prophecy referes to none
other than Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

Version.
