Amazing Miracles of Islam

read as much as im gonna, complete biased rubish written from a pov that evoloutionary theory is a fact

OK - so science like the Big Bang and the expanding universe, etc. are things that Allah chose to make known to those desert-dwelling bedouin through his messenger Mohammed, but evolution's just a load of hokum?

read as much as im gonna, complete biased rubish written from a pov that evoloutionary theory is a fact, and making the ridiculous assertion that because science cant prove the existence of God, all the scientific facts from Islam are not scientifivally accurate, instead of trying to debunk facts it knows it cant.
did u actually read it urself?


Yes, three times, and I thought it would make you uncomfortable, because it doesn't fit your belief system. I expect you may even have felt angry as you read it. But it is a perfectly reasonable simply-written article that makes some good points. It is no threat to your belief in God, but it does show why trying to make faith-based opinion into scientific fact will never work - the language of faith and the language of science are very different.

Nobody is stopping you believing in Allah and dedicating your life to him, if that's what floats your boat but you do need to accept that trying to force faith into backing up scientific fact - and then trying to proselytise with it - is doomed to fail.

fattboy that is what religon is "faith".

Faith is to commit oneself to act based on sufficient evidence to warrant belief, but without absolute proof or to believe without reason. That is what you as a follower of religon does believe without reason..

thats just it, theres plenty of reason, faiths based on reason, hence the miracles that Allah has Shown, Allah didnt expect ppl to believe without giving signs, all Prophets that came to their ppl had them, but the Qur'an came for all time, its a living miracle, fair enouh Jesus pbuh is said to have raised a man from the dead, Moses pbuh parted the sea, but these were to the ppl they came to, we cant really appreciate them today, not having witnessed them happen,today, we have the Qur'an and as science progresses more and more miracles are revealed.

who wrote it?

regarding forcing faith to back up science:check up as many different translations from different translators of the Qur'an for the verses cited in the videos

Yes, but that's a pro-Christian website - (as is the .org version).

One of the main probs with criticism from such places is that it has a vested interest in destroying the theology and faith of the other, so it's not constructive criticism, but heavily biased, proselytising (for Christianity) and can't be considered objective in any way.

We are not pitched in a new crusade - Christian against Muslim - these attitudes are part of the problem.

what is?, and please quote the verses
oh you thick fuck the books of the bible are in the Quran which is why they are there ...

fuck off you troll you aren't a muslim and are doing a really really shit not even 4th grade impression of one..

it's gettign oh so fucking tiresome...
 
fattboy said:
so u disagree with the scientists who say the universe is expanding?
The inflationary theory of the universe and the laws of thermodynamics compliment each other not oppose. Do you actualy know what the laws of thermodynamics are?

but such sites often illustrate the double edged nature of selective quoting.

tbh i dont
 
The gist of it is

"Put a hot thing next to a cold thing, and in time you will have two moderately warm things. It is impossible to put two moderately warm things togther and create a hot thing and a cold thing"

The upshot of which is that there is no new energy or matter being created. Eventually, the stars will run out, and everything will cool down to a uniform temperature. No more 'work' can be done and life will be impossible. This is the most inevitable thing in science - there is not one shred of evidence to deny it.

So, the universe is not still being created. It came into being, and that was that. No further intervention.

From Wikiislam - Can modern science be found in the Qu'ran?

I like this bit especially
The argument as it stands makes Allah out to be weak

If Allah was going to use science to prove the Qur'an, then why not do it in a way that does not depend upon clever exegesis from the supporters of that argument? Rather, Allah could have done it in a way that was indisputable. For instance, why not predict TV with a verse such as: "Say: ‘Men shall watch images that move in a small box that stands in the corner of their dwelling.'" Or the moon landings: "Say: ‘Lo! And men shall walk upon the face of the moon, and plant a flag thereon.'" Do you see? Verses such as these could have no argument against them, unlike the current situation, which requires a) a somewhat tortured exegesis of these "miracle verses" and b) a categorical insistence by those who interpret them that theirs and theirs alone is the right interpretation (often ignoring over 1,000 years of what previous Muslim scholars and interpreters have said.)

You see, elsewhere in the Qur'an, when it speaks about a subject it is crystal clear. Consider Sura 3:2:

"Allah! There is no god but He,-the Living, the Self-Subsisting, Eternal. " (Yusuf Ali)

Nobody could argue other than that this verse is claiming that Allah is the only god, who is living, self-subsisting, and eternal. It is very clear as to what it means. If a "scientific miracle" exists in the Qur'an, then it would be a wonderful proof of the divine authorship that Muslims claim for it. Yet apparently this miracle is buried away, requiring clever exegesis and interpretation to find it. Somehow this doesn't add up, does it? If Allah had meant for there to be science in the Qur'an, it would have been written clearly.

a theory being put forward is the universe will stop expanding at the 'cosmic crunch' when everything reverses direction and the universe starts falling in on itself back to the point it started from, also referred to in ahadith, by the rising of the sun in the west.

Err, what?

This should be on the national curriculum. If someone wants to figure out how to do the second part that would be fantastic but there seem to be a lot of people who believe it's a common phenomenon.
 
Fattboy, I know you didn't like the last article I posted but why not try the wikiislam one, ( endorsed by many Muslims)I posted before, posted here again, on the Qu'ran and science.

It explains to you why your arguments that
''science is proved in the Qu'ran'' are weak - and actually work AGAINST the authority of the Qu'ran. The article shows how:

# 1 Those who pursue the argument leave no room for alternative interpretations
# 2 The argument as it stands makes Allah out to be weak
# 3 The argument is a modern polemic
# 4 At the end of the day, the "modern science proves the Qur'an" polemic does not find science in the Qur'an, rather it uses science to judge the Qur'an
# 5 Selective interpretation can be used to prove anything
# 6 Applying the argument means that the Qur'an is no longer authoritative
# 7 Conclusion

It might save you a lot of hassle

Unfotunately for that theory, the expansion of the universe is accelerating. There is not enough mass to suck it back in. Stuff will just get spread out and cool down/

Surah Qamar (The Moon)

1) The Hour has drawn near and the moon has been cleft asunder

2)And if they see a sign they turn away and say ' This is continous magic'

3)They belied (the verses of Allah, this Qur'an) and followed their own lusts.
And every matter will be settled

4)And indeed their has come to them the news (in this Qur'an wherein there is enough warning to check (them from evil)

5)Perfect wisdom (this Qur'an but the preaching of) warners benefits them not

the moon was landed on in 1969, when astronauts dug into the moon surface and took back samples, as mentioned in the first verse.
1969 gregorian calendar relates to 1390 of the Islamic calendar, i think its verse 1 of this chapter Al Qamar(The Moon) that is 1390 verses from the end of the Qur'an, will confirm it inshaAllah.

'Cleft asunder' does not translate into 'send up a manned mission and bring back samples,' no matter how hard you try to spin it. I suggest you consult a dictionary.

And your date is full of bollocks too. 1390 is 1970.

And why doesn't 'cleft asunder' refer to a lunar eclipse?
(In that metaphorical/poetic way of describing the cosmological world around us).

The islamophobia round here is sickening.

No one is saying that fattboy is wrong or should not be allowed to practise the religion of his choice. He is wrong by stating to us that the religion he chooses to practise holds all the secrets of the world/universe & we are fools not believe him, when all the evidence points to the opposite.
