Scientific Accuracy of Quran
1 minute message - by Imam Shabir Ally

Scientific Accuracy of the Qur'an Amazes University of Toronto Professor

This message is based on an article entitled "Highlights of Human
Embryology
in the Koran and the Hadith" by Dr. Keith Moore, Professor of Anatomy and
Chairman of the Department, Faculty of Medicine, at the University of
Toronto, 1982.

Dr. Moore points out that the study of how the human embryo develops in
the
mother's womb could not progress significantly without the use of
microscopes. Microscopes were not invented until the 17th century A.D.,
and
were not used in this field of study until the 18th century. Therefore
when
Dr. Moore studied certain statements in the Qur'an on this subject, he
remarked, "I was amazed at the scientific accuracy of these statements
which
were made in the 7th century A.D."

The Qur'an in 39:6 states that God made us in the wombs of our mothers in
stages.

Dr. Moore comments: "The realization that the embryo develops in stages in
the uterus was not discussed or illustrated until the 15th century A.D."

"The staging of human embryos was not proposed until the 1940's, and the
stages used nowadays were not adopted worldwide until a few years ago."

Furthermore, he says: "The idea that development results from a genetic
plan
contained in the chromosomes of the zygote was not discovered until the
end
of the 19th century. The verse from the Koran [80:18] clearly implies that
the nutfa (i.e. the initial drop of fluid) contains the plan or blueprint
for the future characteristics and features of the developing human
being."

The Qur'an 23:12-16 indicates that there is a lag or gap between two of
the
early stages of growth. How does that compare with modern scientific
knowledge? Remarkably! Says Dr. Moore: "It is well established that there
is
a lag or delay in the development of the embryo during the implantation..
The agreement between the lag or gap in development mentioned in the Koran
and the slow rate of change occurring during the second and third weeks is
amazing. These details of human development were not described until about
40 years ago."
Finally, Dr. Moore concludes by saying that the agreement he has found in
the Quranic statements "may help to close the gap between science and
religion which has existed for so many years."

The above evidence shows that the Qur'an must be from God as it claims.
The
Qur'an says that you and every human being should consider this book with
care. Had it been from anyone other than God, you would have found much
discrepancy in it (4:82).
