Download or read book Modern Cosmology and the Quran written by Taiseer Zaid Kailani and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Book " Modern Cosmology and the Quran " has, among other things, three main objectives, namely; (1) To prove the existence of God, the Creator of the whole Universe, (2) To confirm the Authenticity of the Quran, and (3) the need for religious harmony between Monotheistic Religions. The Quran has mentioned many signs in Nature which point to the existence of God and His Power. God insistently appeals to people to travel in the Earth and Heavens to seek and know His creative power, and to see how He has created every thing in the physical Universe accurately and with proportion, to look into Nature and examine the life forms and their activities, to contemplate upon the celestial bodies and the system that governs .them, and to examine the scientific signs and allusions revealed in the Quran. The principal aim is to incite the human being to reflect on the works of the creation as evidence of the Great Creator of the Universe, and to ensure that the scientific phenomena revealed in the Quran fourteen centuries ago are perfectly in conformity with modern knowledge. When people perceive this, they come to know more deeply the beauty and splendour of the Creator''s system and the infinitude of His Might. Regarding this fact, God says in the Quran: " .. Travel in the land and see how God originated the creation" (Surah 29, verse 20). " Verily, in the Heavens and the Earth are signs for those who believe"(Surah 45, verse 3). " It is the work of God Who perfected all things" (Surah 3, verse 190). As we know that the Quran was revealed to Muhammad Who was an illiterate man, and who was living in an environment dominated by ignorance. If he was the author of the Quran, how could he have written facts about Cosmology in the 7th century A.D. that today are shown to be consistent with modern science. Moreover, if somebody else had written it for him, how could he then pronounce truths of a scientific nature that no other human being could possibly have developed at the time, and all this without once making the slightest error in his pronouncements on the subject. Apart from the astronomical evidences revealed in the Quran and which are proved to be scientific facts nowadays, God has challenged disbelievers to produce a single chapter like chapters of the Quran in their beauty, eloquence and wise legislation. Ever since its revelation, fourteen centuries ago, no one has been able to meet this challenge then or today though at that time of revelation, the Arabs were very eloquent people who used to compose beautiful and excellent poetry in Arabic. With respect to this, God says in the Quran: " And if you are in doubt what we have revealed to our worshiper, then produce a chapter like it, and call your witnesses besides God if you are truthful. And if you do not do it, and you can never do it, then fear the Hell.." ( Surah 21, verse 23-25 ). The third main objective of this Book is the need for religious harmony between Monotheistic Religions, namely: Judaism, Christianity and Islam since three of them have, more or less, the same basic Divine Doctrines and Guidance that lead human kind to the right path, and because their adherents believe in the same God and worship Him, each according to the ritual activities they believe in, therefore no real reason why religious harmony does not exist between these religions. Such coexistence constitutes the bedrock of Justice and World Peace nowadays. In this connection God says in the Quran: "Say: O people of the Book ( Jews and Christians ) come to a word that is just between us and you that we will worship none but God" (Surah 3, verse 64 ). It is obvious that this Quranic verse is an invitation to inter-religious dialogue in order to find a mutual basis for peaceful co-existence and harmony between religions.

Download or read book Revelation, Rationality, Knowledge & Truth written by Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad and published by Islam International Publications Ltd. This book was released on 1998-06-30 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any divide between revelation and rationality, religion and logic has to be irrational. If religion and rationality cannot proceed hand in hand, there has to be something deeply wrong with either of the two. Does revelation play any vital role in human affairs? Is not rationality sufficient to guide man in all the problems which confront him? Numerous questions such as these are examined with minute attention. All major issues which intrigue the modern mind are attempted to be incorporated in this fascinatingly comprehensive statute. Whatever the intellectual or educational background of the reader, this book is bound to offer him something of his interest. It examines a very diverse and wide range of subjects including the concept of revelation in different religions, history of philosophy, cosmology, extraterrestrial life, the future of life on earth, natural selection and its role in evolution. It also elaborately discusses the advent of the Messiah, or other universal reformers, awaited by different religions. Likewise, many other topical issues which have been agitating the human mind since time immemorial are also incorporated. The main emphasis is on the ability of the Quran to correctly discuss all important events of the past, present and future from the beginning of the universe to its ultimate end. Aided by strong incontrovertible logic and scientific evidence, the Quran does not shy away from presenting itself to the merciless scrutiny of rationality. It will be hard to find a reader whose queries are not satisfactorily answered. We hope that most readers will testify that this will always stand out as a book among books – perhaps the greatest literary achievement of this century.

Download or read book Islam's Quantum Question written by Nidhal Guessoum and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In secular Europe the veracity of modern science is almost always taken for granted. Whether they think of the evolutionary proofs of Darwin or of spectacular investigation into the boundaries of physics conducted by CERN's Large Hadron Collider, most people assume that scientific enquiry goes to the heart of fundamental truths about the universe. Yet elsewhere, science is under siege. In the USA, Christian fundamentalists contest whether evolution should be taught in schools at all. And in Muslim countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Pakistan and Malaysia, a mere 15 per cent of those recently surveyed believed Darwin's theory to be 'true' or 'probably true'. This thoughtful and passionately argued book contends absolutely to the contrary: not only that evolutionary theory does not contradict core Muslim beliefs, but that many scholars, from Islam's golden age to the present, adopted a worldview that accepted evolution as a given. Guessoum suggests that the Islamic world, just like the Christian, needs to take scientific questions - 'quantum questions' - with the utmost seriousness if it is to recover its true heritage and integrity. In its application of a specifically Muslim perspective to important topics like cosmology, divine action and evolution, the book makes a vital contribution to debate in the disputed field of 'science and religion'.

Download or read book Cosmology and Architecture in Premodern Islam written by Samer Akkach and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating interdisciplinary study reveals connections between architecture, cosmology, and mysticism. Samer Akkach demonstrates how space ordering in premodern Islamic architecture reflects the transcendental and the sublime. The book features many new translations, a number from unpublished sources, and several illustrations. Referencing a wide range of mystical texts, and with a special focus on the works of the great Sufi master Ibn Arabi, Akkach introduces a notion of spatial sensibility that is shaped by religious conceptions of time and space. Religious beliefs about the cosmos, geography, the human body, and constructed forms are all underpinned by a consistent spatial sensibility anchored in medieval geocentrism. Within this geometrically defined and ordered universe, nothing stands in isolation or ambiguity; everything is interrelated and carefully positioned in an intricate hierarchy. Through detailed mapping of this intricate order, the book shows the significance of this mode of seeing the world for those who lived in the premodern Islamic era and how cosmological ideas became manifest in the buildings and spaces of their everyday lives. This is a highly original work that provides important insights on Islamic aesthetics and culture, on the history of architecture, and on the relationship of art and religion, creativity and spirituality.

Download or read book An Introduction to Islamic Cosmological Doctrines written by Seyyed Hossein Nasr and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1993-07-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book to deal with classical Islamic cosmology as it was formulated by the Ikhwan al-S'afa al Biruni and Ibn Sina during the tenth and eleventh centuries. These figures influenced all the later centuries of Islamic history and in fact created the cosmological framework within which all later scientific activity in the Islamic world was carried out--the enduring image of the cosmos within which Muslims have lived during the past millennium. Nasr writes from within the Islamic tradition and demonstrates how, based on the teachings of the Quran and the Prophet, the figures treated in this work integrated elements drawn from various ancient schools of philosophy and the sciences. This book is unique in its treatment of classical Islamic cosmology as seen from within the Islamic world-view and provides a key for understanding of traditional Islamic thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since the dawn of human life on this planet, Man has always sought to understand Nature, his own place in the scheme of Creation and the purpose of Life itself. In this quest for Truth, spanning many centuries and diverse civilizations, organized religion has shaped human life and determined to a large extent, the course of history. While some religions have been based on books, claimed by their adherents to be divinely inspired, others have relied solely on human experience. Al-Qur’aan, the main source of the Islamic faith, is a book believed by Muslims, to be of completely Divine origin. Muslims also believe that it contains guidance for all mankind. Since the message of the Qur’aan is believed to be for all times, it should be relevant to every age. Does the Qur’aan pass this test? In this booklet, I intend to give an objective analysis...
