In the name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
14 July 1995

Dear Suleman ‘Ali:

Thank you for your fax of 27 June 1995 which said, in part:

“Recently a pamphlet has been circulated around Oxford saying that evolution is synonymous with kufr and shirk. I myself am a biologist and am convinced by the evidence which supports the theory of evolution. I am writing to ask whether the Quranic account of Creation is incompatible with man having evolved. Are there any books which you would recommend on the subject?”

Science must increase our faith. It is wrong for anyone to close their eyes to what is right in front of them. For a Muslim the evidence of dinosaurs and fossils is not a threat to our beliefs. Rather, it is a confirmation of the power of Allah. (more…)

Question:

According to Arun Shourie there is a mathematical error in the Quran. In chapter 4 verses 11 and 12 when you add up the different parts of inheritance given to the heirs, it is more than one. Therefore the author of the Quran does not know mathematics. (more…)

Only in recent years has modern science been able to unravel some of the mysteries surrounding the workings of the universe. (more…)

Here we refer to the well known law of conservation of matter. This law states that ‘Matter cannot be created nor destroyed’.

What that means is that all that we are able to do is convert one form of substance to another. We can never create matter from nothing, and similarly we cannot turn matter into nothing. Trees are brought down to make wood and paper, sand is used in the making of glass…. (more…)

The purpose of this section is to argue how modern science testifies to the existence of a sole creator, a supreme force far superior to anything we know, a power responsible for the creation of the universe and of sustaining it. (more…)

Many of us at some point or another in our lives start to question: where did we come from? Why are we here? What happens to us after we die? Is death the grim end, or is it but a gate that leads into a different kind of existence? We often wonder how did it all come to be? (more…)

Below is a comical attempt to show clashes between ‘athiest science’ and god.

“At an educational institution: Professing to be wise, they became fools …. “

“Let me explain the problem science has with God.” The atheist professor of philosophy pauses before his class and then asks one of his new students to stand. (more…)
