How the Quran’s scientific accuracy has inspired scholars and scientists

Science in Quran

 

Every single day, people choose Islam as their path to Allah, some of them because of a Muslim neighbor who showed them the beauty of Islam in their behavior, some of them because they read the Quran and found out that it can not be a fake book, some of them because they visited a mosque or heard al-Adan and they felt in a special feeling, and some of them discovered that Quran mentioning multiple scientific facts that Mohamed (pbuh) can not know. Especially, when they know that these effects have been just discovered recently.

  1. How the Quran’s scientific accuracy has inspired scholars and scientists:

The most reassuring is a lot of them were scholars.  For instance, two specialists in embryology Keith Moore professor at the University of Toronto, and Marshall Johnson professor at the University of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania converted to Islam because of the verses that speak about some truths, which were just discovered in their specialty. They both said: Mohamed (pbuh) cannot talk about something like that at that time. It is obviously is from Allah. One of these verses that made them convert to Islam is “And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay, Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging, Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation, So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.”  [15: 12,14] .

قال تعالى ﴿وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن سُلَالَةٍ مِّن طِينٍ، ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاهُ نُطْفَةً فِي قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ، ثُمَّ خَلَقْنَا النُّطْفَةَ عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْعَلَقَةَ مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْمُضْغَةَ عِظَامًا فَكَسَوْنَا الْعِظَامَ لَحْمًا ثُمَّ أَنشَأْنَاهُ خَلْقًا آخَرَ ۚ فَتَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ﴾ [المؤمنون 12-14].\

In this verse, Allah mentioned the stages of the creation of humankind detailed in the Quran. It was not something known at that time. For western scholars that were evidence of the sincerity of the Quran and of the Islamic message.

Another example, Dr. kamal Okuda Professor of Political Systems at Keio University. He said: “Before Islam my life was barbaric. Very barbaric! Ignorant. I didn’t know the truth!”

Dr. Okuda converted to Islam because of one verse. After studying Islamic legalization for more than six years he suddenly read a verse about the creation of humankind. Allah said: “And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.” . [15: 26] .

قال تعالى: ﴿وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ مِن صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَإٍ مَّسْنُونٍ.﴾ [الحجر: 26].

After his converting, he said:

“At that moment! I converted to Islam. I believe that this is the greatest gift from Allah in my life!”.

These are just three examples, but many scholars have accepted Islam such as Persaud, Joe Leigh Simpson, Gerald C. Goeringer, Alfred Kroner, Professor Armstrong, Professor Armstrong, William Hay, Durja Rao, Siaveda, Tejatat Tejasen, Yushidi Kusan, Maurice Bucaille, etc.
