Can you give me some of the scientific facts that are mentioned in the Quran?

Question

like this verse, "we made ever living thing from water. Then, will they not believe?" [21:30]
Only after advancement of science, do we now know that cytoplasm, the basic substance of cells are made up of 80% water. Every living thing needs water to survive and most organisms consist of 50 to 90% water.

This was revealed more then 14centuries ago, before any scientific research had been completed, certainly a miracle of the Quran.

I know where i can find the answers. I am not asking for links. But just was asking for some to give one or two examples thats all.

Answer 1

i read entire quran and i found these facts:
1-god create all creature male and female,even trees and flowers.
2-the earth is spherical.
3-the earth turning around itself and the sun.but everything have its temperance on earth.the verse compare earth with cradle and humen with a child.
i forgot the verses but im sure there r much more.koran s a holy book from god i belive it.

Answer 2

1-the fact that the skin is the sense cenrtre in the body "alnesaa verse 56"
2- the fact that the earth is spherical "alraad verse 3"
3- the fact that the mountains are the things that hold the earth secure to the ground "alnahl verse 15"
4- the fact that the earth is not completely rounded "alnaazeat verse 30"
5- the fact that the higher we go up the less oxygen there is" alanaam verse 125"

Answer 3

Tariq Al Swaidan found this interesting fact that is undeniable;)

Amazingly enough have a look how many times the following words appear in the Quran:

Salat 5, Month 12 , Day 365,

Sea 32, Land 13

Sea + land = 32+ 13= 45

Sea = 32/45*100q.=71.11111111%

Land = 13/45*100 = 28.88888889%

Sea + land 100.00%

Modern science has only recently proven that the water covers 71.111% of the earth, while the land covers 28.889%. Is this a coincidence? Question is that Who taught Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) all this? Reply automatically comes in mind that ALMIGHTY ALLAH taught him. This as the Holy Qur'an also tells us this.

Answer 4

So what is your point? Anybody can search for coincidences in books. And most of your numbers that supposedly 'prove' the quran seem to keep being 'about' and '%ish'. Those are not scientific terms. Look at it this way. A researcher once use the same methods that bible code fanatics use and applied it to Moby Dick. Moby Dick correctly predicted the assassination of JFK. Does that prove that Moby Dick was inspired by god? Or was it coincidence.

Answer 5

Quran is word of God in his sentences. All Quran is a scientific fact. The few facts are known to scholars. Prophet Mohammad SAW has told "The secrets of Quran will continue to be revealed until the Judgement day"

Being just a common man whenever I read I find some new and strange truth in Quran.

Answer 6

Interesting. This information is not scientific, nor is it a 'scientific' fact in any way.

In the scientific method, an observation is made, then the reasons why or process, the ingredients list, and the result is given.

Your verse implies that 'we' made life from water only. No other ingredient is listed, no directions on how to recreate the process, and no indication of what life was made first, etc. is given.

Not only that, but the fact that cells contain water appears to be a coincidence. No causation or relationship between the verse and the true scientific fact is provided.

If science were this sloppy, you should never go to a hospital, get on a plane, or use a microwave oven. The standard of proof is not there in your example.

Answer 7

The Miracle of Qur'anic Eloquence and Style
This includes:
A - Expression: the eloquence of the Qur'an's expression has two aspects: purity of language and impressiveness.
B - Meaning: the eloquence of the Qur'an as regards meaning is obvious in three aspects:
1. The meaning is clear from the word itself.
2. The meaning conforms to the word, it is neither more than it to cause disorder in the word nor less than it to cause disorder in meaning. That is obvious in the Arabs' saying: "The killing stops killing" and what the Almighty Allah, subhanahu wa ta`ala, says:
"And there is [a saving of] life for you in Qisas [the law of Equality in punishment of murder]..." [Qur'an 2:179]
3. Saying many concepts in a few words.
C - The composition: The good composition of the Qur'an is obvious in the following:
1. The Qur'anic speech is harmonious.
2. The measure is balanced and not inconsistent.
3. If a word is taken from its place, and the whole Arabic language is searched for a better substitute, it will not be found. The Almighty Allah says:
"[This is] a Book, the Verses whereof are perfected [in every sphere of knowledge], and then explained in detail from one [Allah] Who is All-Wise All-Acquainted [with all things]." [Qur'an 11:1]
D - The artistic imagery:
This is a new aspect of the Qur'an's miraculous eloquence revealed by Sayyid Qutb who studied the general principles of the artistic and esthetical qualities of the Qur'an materialized in imagery that he considered the preferred instrument in the style of the Qur'an, and the first rule of its eloquence. It expresses in an imaginary image the mental meaning, the psychological state, the tangible incident, the visible spectacle, the human model and man's nature. Then that image is promoted and given life or renewable movement, thus the mental meaning becomes a movement, the psychological state becomes a spectacle, the human modem becomes a living person and man's nature becomes visible. The listener forgets that he listens to a recital and imagines himself in front of a spectacle that is presented or an incident taking place in front of one's eyes.
The miraculous aspect of artistic imagery in the Qur'an is that its instrument is the inanimate word and not the expressive persons, the colours or the accompanying music.

Answer 8

1) In soorat Al Naba, Allah said:

[78:6] Did we not make the earth habitable?
[78:7] And the mountains stabilizers?
[78:8] We created you as mates (for one another).

It was then discovered that the mountains have roots that are extended into earth, that's why they are strong & solid.


2) In soorat Al Nahl, Allah said:

[16:15] And He placed stabilizers (mountains) on earth, lest it tumbles with you, as well as rivers and roads, that you may be guided.

It was discovered later that the mountains act as stabilizers. Note that both examples 1 & 2 use the word stabalizers while in the Arabic Qura'an its different!!!


3) In soorat Yaseen, Allah said:

[36:40] The sun is never to catch up with the moon - the night and the day never deviate - each of them is floating in its own orbit.

Nobody knew until recently that there is something known as an ORBIT. But it is there in the Qur'an.

Answer 9

"The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly) computed" [55:5] This refers to the orbits of heavenly bodies. Another sign in the Quraan.
And certainly We have adorned this lower heaven with lamps and We have made these missiles for the Shaitans, and We have prepared for them the chastisement of burning. [67:5] This explains shooting stars. There are more of course, the links provided shed light on two more.

Answer 10

that is really not an accurate statement.....since we are more than water.....if he had said something more detailed and specific that would have been more impressive....like we contained minerals like nitrogen, oxygen , hydrogen and carbon.

That we have" water in us"..........that statement reflects the Greek scientific thought still prevalent at that time- that we are made of earth, air, fire, and water.....Empedocles (490-444BC) and hippocrates (400-300BC) both preceded Mohammed.

sceince was failry well developed at that time.....it was common sense that people needed water to survive...and so it was logical to assume that our bodies contained a certain level of water that needed to be maintained.
