Quran’s Scientific Miracles Amaze Scientists: Al-Azhar Chief
Salama Dawood said the miraculous references of the Quran to scientific facts indicate the greatness of the Creator, El-Balad news website reported.
He said there are many miracles in the Quran, including those related to numbers, Tashriee (legislation) and science.
As an example, he referred to Verse 88 of Surah An-Naml that highlights the movement of mountains: “And you will see the mountains which you think to be firm pass by like clouds. (Such is the) making of Allah, who has created everything well. He is Aware of the things you do.”
Another, he said, is Verse 40 of Surah An-Nur that refers to darkness in the heart of the see, “Or, they are like darkness upon a deep sea covered with a wave above which is another wave, above which are clouds, darkness piled one upon the other; when he stretches out his hand he can scarcely see it. Indeed, to whomsoever Allah assigns no light, he shall have no light.”
