Why We Study Scientific Miracle

There are some question about the importance of Scientific Miracle in the Holy Quran. We attempt to answer and explain….

New articles have been recently issued as their writers are wondering: if these cosmic and scientific facts existed in the Qur'an 1400 years ago, then why were you waiting for the West scientists to discover them and you say that the Qur'an has preceded them in the speech about these facts? Moreover, you bear on the Qur'anic text what it cannot bear of interpretation and explanation?

The answer of these questions is found in the same verses that spoke about the coincidence between the science and the Qur'an. That is because these verses are basically directed for the disbelievers who do not believe in the Qur'an. Allah (Exalted is He) has directed those verses towards them because they who will see the cosmic facts and they who ill discover them.

Therefore, we find the divine eloquence addressing them while saying: "We will soon show them Our signs in the horizons and in themselves until it is evident to them that it is the Truth. And does it not suffice as to your Lord that He is The Ever-Present Witness over everything?" Surat Fussilat (Expounded) verse no.53

This clear verse is addressing those who suspect the Qur'an. It says that Allah will guide them to see His signs and miracles to realize and know foe certainty that the Qur'an is the truth and it is the book of Allah (Exalted is He). He is also addressing and calling them while saying: Will they not then contemplate the Qur’an? And if it had been from (any where) other than the Providence of Allah, indeed they would have found in it many difference (s). Surat An-Nisa (Women) verse no.82

Thus if the Qur'an has been sent by a humanbeing i.e. by anyone rather than Allah, we will see in it the differences and the contrasts. But if we see it agreeing and coinciding with the new science and doesn’t contradict with it, then this is a scientific evidence that it is coming from Allah (Exalted and Blessed is He) Who is the Creator of the universe and the revelator of the Qur'an.

This is the aim of the scientific miracle, to see in the Qur'an this symmetry in every thing and not to find any disturbance, mistake or contrast. That is because those are the characteristics of the book of Allah (Exalted is He). Whereas the books written by people however their writers write them perfectly, they still have contrast, disturbance or mistake.

The greatest evidence of the truth of this qur'anic fact is that the scientists started to change their cosmic terms, for example they change the term “space” to “building”. Thus they have discovered that they are mistaken in using this term so they left it and used what is more accurate and correct after their discovery of the dark matter.

But the Qur'an, which is descended by Allah Who knows the secrets of Heavens and Earth, has given us the accurate expression directly. Thus Allah has described his book saying: "Untruth does not come up to it before (Literally: between its two hands) it nor from behind it; a successive sending down from (One) Ever-Wise, Ever-Praiseworthy". Surat Fussilat (Expounded) verse no.42

Therefore if these discoveries have been done by believers who would then say that they are beforehandedly mentioned in the Qur'an, the disbelievers would deny their truthfulness. The miracle happens when you find that the person who denies the Qur'an unconsciously repeats it words. Here, the miraculous nature becomes greater than it when the discoveries would be done by the believers.

If we follow the qur'anic verses speaking about the cosmos, we’ll find that they are addressing the disbelievers who are far from the book of Allah and who are denying His words (Exalted and Blessed is He). As the believer believes all what is descended by Allah (Exalted and Glorified is He) and these scientific facts increase his certainty and faith in Allah, the Creator and Inventor, of this universe, Who says about the uniqueness of His creation what follows: "And you see the mountains, that you reckon inert, and (really) they pass by like clouds- the handiwork of Allah, Who has consummated everything; surely He is Ever-Cognizant of whatever you perform." S‍û rat An-Naml (The Ant) verse no.88

Concerning the disbeliever, who denies the Qur'an and disbelieves the message of Islam, he should look and contemplate to reach convincingly to the faith of Islam and to realize from these facts the truthfulness of this religion and the truthfulness of the Seal of the Prophets i.e. Mohammad (May the best prayers and peace be upon him).
