Do science and faith collide in Islam?
Answer
Islam is the last word of God to all the worlds and it is the final testament which was conveyed to us through Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Islam has the unique feature of being adequate to become the reference point of all paradigms of knowledge and in total harmony with all the scientific facts. Muslims believe that the divine revelation is God’s written book and that the whole universe is God’s seen book and both of them come from God. The divine revelation comes from the world of command and the universe comes from the world of creation and whatever comes from God does not contradict each other. Therefore God says in the Quran, “Unquestionably, to Him belongs both creation and command; blessed is Allah , Lord of the worlds.7:45
For this reason knowledge in Islam has two sources: divine revelation and universe. Islam admits that science does not know the final word as God says, “but over every possessor of knowledge is one [more] knowing.” 12:76
And 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.”
