How Islam views science

"O my Lord! Advance me in Knowledge"
 [surah Ta-Ha; 20:114]


Islam forms the perfect harmony between faith and science as they are two faces of the same coin and each one completes the other. The more the person expands on different branches of experimental sciences, the more he feels the grandeur of creativity, thoroughness and precision with which God created the whole universe. He would also realize that the universe is full of secrets and facts that humans have only discovered a few.

 This leads to an increase in his faith in Allah and love for this Great Creator. Therefore all that leads to Allah is considered faith. On the other hand, believing in the unseen world will lead the believer to be in total harmony, mercy and love with this universe which praises Allah and prostrates to Him. Believing in the unseen teaches people not to rush into denying facts before deliberation, consideration and deep thinking.

 It also opens up new horizons for the human mind. Allah says in the Quran, “Rather, they have denied that which they encompass not in knowledge and whose interpretation has not yet come to them.” (10:39)

Islam also admits that a true believer should be in a continuous search for facts and whenever he finds it, he should be the most rightful to adhere to it. The Prophet says, “Wisdom is the lost property of the believer, so wherever he finds it then he has a right to it."

Islam loves to search and inquire and calls on its followers to study, excavate and look before believing. Islam supports the wisdom that says: prove the correctness of everything and then clings to the good, and this is not strange, since wisdom is the lost of the believer that he takes wherever he finds it. He is the person most deserving of it. Thus, Islam is the religion of reason and logic .. Islam is the truth, its weapon is knowledge, and its archenemy is ignorance.

we can conclude this blog with prophet Muhammad peace be upon him saying " Seeking knowledge is an obligation for every Muslim. ”
