Islam and Science
The Qur'an asks us again and again to look at the sky, the earth, animals and even ourselves, and to think. Explore 27 signs of Allah in creation, from black holes and mountains to honeybees and dates, and see what scientists have discovered about them.
Before you start
"Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, are signs for people of understanding." (Qur'an 3:190)
The Qur'an is a book of guidance, not a science textbook. It shows us Allah's signs so that we know Him and thank Him. Scientists keep learning, and their ideas sometimes change, but the words of the Qur'an never change. So when we find a discovery that matches a verse, we say: this verse may point to it, and Allah knows best.
