Does the Koran have more scientific consistency than the Bible?

Question

I am not talking about sky virgins and stuff.
Heaven and Hell cannot be scientifically proven.
I am talking about Islam's take on daily matters and worldy affairs. I think Islam has a more scientific take on some things, than Christianity. Am I wrong?

Answer 1

I read the Quran and I think it does, at least to a certain extent. It mentions things about how the stars and planets are arranged and how there is a certain way the universe is organized. It also mentions somewhere how the "power of a thousand suns" is in the tiniest bit of matter--to me, that seems to imply atomic energy. I'm sorry, but I can't remember the exact quotes or the titles of the chapters, and I'm a little too tired to look it up right now, but I'm absolutely certain those quotes are there. A friend of mine who is a medical doctor and a very devout Muslim used to quote some of these things and he appeared to feel they were scientifically sound. I wish he was answering you instead of me, he would probably remember how to find the exact quotes.

Answer 2

There is some valid scientific interpreted passages. Islam is not totally ignorant of science. There were some pretty brilliant Muslim thinkers.

Al-Ghazali was a Muslim who lived in AD 1058--1111 and wrote an excellent book called Cosmological Argument for God. I read some of the quotes in the book listed below, and they were brilliant.

However, in comparing it to the BIble, I see no real comparison. Neither are books on science. However, the Bible shows its merit by being the ONLY book that can prove its authorship is from the eternal.

Answer 3

by fact of prophecies that have come actual and by the authors giving divine signs and symptoms (and understanding the texts are valid - written whilst they have been by the authors or their scribes, as reported). those are primary of defining scripture that's from God. there is greater, yet i've got not got time to get into it desirable now. you could google what makes scripture, scripture, or get some severe high quality books on the priority in case you have been quite fascinated. those issues are motives why many don't view the Quran and Mohammed as divine - there are different motives for no longer believing that as nicely.

Answer 4

You're wrong. The Koran follows the same creation story as the Bible and even adds in Genies.

Answer 5

why does that matter anyway.
are you going make any invention using quran.
Mohammed added contemporary science into quran. It is just as you give reasons to human existance, he also gave scientific explanation to his theory. Its not a miracle. Arabians assorted many math and science facts from india and around the world. quran included some of those.
By the way,,,, mountians dont carry the sky.

Answer 6

You are wrong!Matthew 24:4-32. Nation will fight against nation and ruler against ruler,over and over. Famines and earthquake will occur at various places.This is nothing compared to what is coming.Things going from bad to worse everyone hating each other at each others throats. Mother against daughter,father against son family against family.In the confusion lying preachers and ministers will come forward and deceive a lot of people. For many the overwhelming spirit of evil will do them in.nothing left of their love but a mound of ashes. There is going to be trouble on a scale beyond what the world has never seen,or will never see again.If these things where left to run its course nobody would make it. On account of God's chosen people , the trouble will be cut short.

Answer 7

The koran (18:86) says the sun sets every night in a mud puddle. God, and our scientists, know better. The koran is an evil joke.

Answer 8

Have you ever read any of it???? The Bible is historically and scientifically accurate..

"If I had no other data than the early chapters of Genesis, some of the Psalms and other passages of Scripture, I would have arrived at essentially the same picture of the origin of the universe, as is indicated by the scientific data." Nobel Prize-winning physicist Arno Penzias (Big Bang Theorist)

Answer 9

Yes it does, because it was written two thousand years after the first books of the bible by a more enlightened culture. But that does not mean that it is any more correct than the bible.

Answer 10

The Bible says that in the beginning (TIME), God created the heavens (SPACE) and the earth (MATTER). I guess it a matter of your viewpoint of what the Bible is saying.
