Natural Sciences in the Mirror of Islam (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781956601244)

We consider the universe as an open book. The Holy Quran then emerges as an open book of the universe, a clear book of wisdom and science:

"These are the Ayat (i.e. verses, lessons, evidence, and proofs) of Allah, which We recite to you with truth. Then, in which speech after Allah and His Ayat will they believe?"

(Quran 45:6).

As one of His beautiful Names is "The Truth" the search for truth is a foundational requirement of the Holy Quran. Therefore, Allah calls on Muslims to study the universe and recognize the Divine Laws for managing celestial and terrestrial affairs. From this perspective, two Divine Forces and some Divine Laws are presented in this book.

The book includes some aspects of natural sciences found in the Holy Quran and some pioneering scientific accomplishments of the Islamic civilization. When Muslims will give knowledge, ethics, and scientific research their due place, Muslims will return to their prime, and the book makes a strong case for this approach.
