Transcripts
ever since the dawn of mankind we have
sought to understand nature and our
place in it in this quest for the
purpose of life many people have turned
to religion most religions are based on
books claimed by their followers to be
divinely inspired without any proof
[Music]
Islam is different because it is based
upon reason and proof there are clear
signs that the book of Islam the Quran
is the word of God and we have many
reasons to support this claim there are
scientific and historical facts phonic
upon which were unknown to the people at
the time and have only been discovered
recently by contemporary science the
Quran is in a unique style of language
that cannot be replicated this is known
as the element ability of the Quran
there are prophecies made in the Quran
and by the Prophet Muhammad peace be
upon him which have come to pass
[Music]
the following are some facts fond of a
Quran number one origin of life water is
essential for all living things we all
know that water is vital to life but the
Quran makes a very unusual claim we made
every living thing from water will they
not believe in this verse water is
pointed out as the origin of all life
all living things are made of cells we
now know that cells are mostly made up
of water for example 80% of the
cytoplasm basic cell material of a
standard animal cell is described as
water in biology textbooks the fact that
living things consists mostly of water
was discovered only after the invention
of the microscope in the deserts of
Arabia the last thing someone would have
guessed is that all life came from water
[Music]
number 2 ayran ayran is not natural to
the earth it did not form on the earth
but came down to earth from outer space
this may sound strange but it's true
scientists have found that billions of
years ago the earth was stuck by
meteorites these meteorites were
carrying iron from distant stars which
had exploded the Quran says the
following on the origin of iron we sent
down iron with his great inherent
strength and its many benefits for
humankind God uses the words sent down
for iron it is clear from the first that
iron is not an earthly material but was
sent down for the benefit of humanity
the fact that iron came down to earth
from outer space is something which
could not be known by the primitive
science of the 7th century number 3
Skies protection the sky plays a crucial
role in protecting the earth the sky
protects the earth from the lethal rays
of the Sun if the sky did not exist then
the sun's radiation would have killed
off all life on Earth it also acts like
a blanket wrapped around earth to
protect it from the freezing cold of
space
[Music]
if this temperature was to reach earth
then the planet would freeze over
instantly the sky also protects life on
Earth by warming the surface through
heat retention greenhouse effect and
reducing temperature extremes between
day and night these are some of the many
protective functions of the sky the
Quran asks us to consider the sky in the
following verse we made this guy a
protective ceiling and yet they are
turning away from our science the Quran
points to the sky's protection as a sign
of God the protective properties of the
sky were discovered by scientific
research conducted in the 20th century
number 4 mountains the Quran draws our
attention to a very important
characteristic of mountains did we not
make the earth as a resting place and
the mountains as stakes the Quran
indicates that mountains have deep roots
by using the word stakes to describe
them fact mountains do have deep roots
and the word stakes is an accurate
description for them a book titled earth
by geophysicist Frank press explains
that mountains are like stakes and are
buried deep under the surface of the
earth Mount Everest the height of
voyages approximately 9 kilometres above
ground has a route deeper than 125
kilometers the fact that mountains have
a deep stake like roots was not known
until after the development of the
theory of plate tectonics in the
beginning of the 20th century
number 5 expansion of the universe
at a time when the science of astronomy
was still primitive the expansion of the
universe was described in Khurana and it
is we who have built the universe with
our creative power and keep expanding it
the fact that the universe is expanding
was discovered in the last century the
physicist Stephen Hawking in his book a
brief history of time writes the
discovery that the universe is expanding
was one of the great intellectual
revolutions of the 20th century
the Quran mentioned the expansion of the
universe even before the invention of
the telescope number six sun's orbit in
1512 the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus
put forward his theory that the Sun is
motionless
at the center of the solar system and
that the planets revolve around it the
belief that the Sun is stationary was
widespread among astronomers until the
20th century it is now a
well-established scientific fact that
the Sun is not stationary but is moving
in an orbit around the center of our
Milky Way galaxy the Quran mentions the
orbit of the Sun it is he who creates at
night and day the Sun and the moon each
floating in its orbit the Quran would
have been wrong according to astronomers
just a couple of decades ago but we now
know that the quranic accounts of the
sun's motion is consistent with modern
astronomy number seven the ocean the
quran uses imagery to convey its deep
meanings Hara describes the state of the
unbelievers as darkness outs in a deep
ocean which is covered by waves above
which are waves above which are clouds
layers of darkness one upon the other
when one puts out his hand there and he
can hardly see it those God gives no
light to they have no lie
if his commonly thought that waves only
occur on the surface of the ocean
however oceanographers have discovered
that there are internal ways that take
place below the surface of the ocean
these waves are invisible to the human
eye and can only be detected by
specialist equipment the quran mentions
darkness in a deep ocean above which are
waves above which are ways than clouds
above that this description is not only
remarkable because it describes the
internal waves in the ocean but also
because it describes darkness deep in
the ocean a human being can dive no more
than 70 metres without breathing
equipment light is present at that depth
but if we go down 1,000 meters it is
completely dark 1400 years ago there
were no submarines or specialist
equipment to discover internal waves or
the darkness deep inside the oceans
number 8 lying and movement there was a
cruel oppressive tribal leader named Abu
jahil who lived during the time of
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him God
revealed a verse of the Quran to warn
him no indeed if he does not stop we
will seize him by the forehead his lying
sinful forehead God does not call this
person a liar but calls his forehead the
front part of the brain lying and sinful
and warns him to stop this verse is
significant for two reasons the first is
that the front part of our brain is
responsible for voluntary movement this
is known as the frontal lobe a book
titled essentials of anatomy and
physiology which includes the results of
research on the functions of this area
States the motivation and the foresight
to plan and initiate movements occur in
the anterior portion of the frontal
lobes the prefrontal area the part of
the brain that is responsible for
movement is
said to be seized if the man does not
stop secondly numerous studies have
shown that this same region frontal lobe
is responsible for the lying function of
the brain one such study at the
University of Pennsylvania in which
volunteers were asked questions during a
computerised interrogation it was found
that when the volunteers were lying
there was significantly increased
activity in the prefrontal and pre motor
cortices frontal lobe region the front
part of the brain is responsible for
movement and lying knuckle on links
movement and lying to this area these
functions of the frontal lobe were
discovered with medical imaging
equipment which was developed in the
20th century
number nine pain receptors for a long
time it was thought that the sense of
feeling and pain was dependent on the
brain however it has been discovered
that there are pain receptors present in
the skin without these pain receptors a
person would not be able to feel pain
consider the following verse on pain we
shall send those who reject our
revelations to the Hellfire when their
skins have been burned away we shall
replace them with new ones so that they
may continue to feel the pain
God is all-mighty all-wise God tells the
people who reject his message that when
they're in hell and their skins are
burnt off so they can't feel any pain he
will give them new skins so that they
continue to feel the pain the quran
makes it clear that pain is a pendant
upon the skin the discovery of pain
receptors in the skin is a fairly recent
discovery for biology
these are just some of the many facts
found on the Quran it is important to
know that the Quran is not a book of
science but that is consistent with
science to claim that scientific facts
in the Quran are due to coincidence
would be irrational the best explanation
is that God revealed this knowledge to
the Prophet Muhammad
just like the Quran contains knowledge
about the natural world
it also contains information about the
inner dimensions of our souls it relates
to our feelings once and needs the Quran
informs us that we have a purpose in
life and that following God's guidance
will lead us to an inner peace in this
life and paradise in the Hereafter and
that rejection of his message will lead
to depression in this life and Hellfire
after death we shall show them our signs
in the universe and within themselves
until it becomes clear to them that this
is the truth is it not enough that your
Lord is the witness of all things
