Famous worldwide misconceptions: 1) Religion and Science
I once was watching a program on discovery science channel when I found people talking about some scientific facts and then mentioning that this might interfere with the religious beliefs and that it arises the old story of the clash between science and religion!!
According to koran and islamic teachings , I was taught that the people that believe and fear God the most are the people of knowledge, wise people , scientists ..all that....Koran says "The ones who fear Allah are the people of knowledge.."
So I started wondering how come the scientists that know a lot about nature and supposed to believe in God the most , are the ones who deny or doubt the existance of God. However with little thinking , I think I got the answer..
There is a misconcept that God , prophets , religions , all that got to do with miracles and with unexplainable phenomenas . Heretics believe all these to be myths and legends of the ancients as there are no scientific explanations to them.
Who said so?????Noah's ark Mouses stick , Abraham surviving the fire , Jesus ressurrecting the dead, and ALL MIRACLES ARE JUST SPECIAL THINGS IN SPECIAL SITUATIONS THAT GOD MADE TO HIS PROPHETS AS PROOF THAT HE EXISTS AND THEY ARE HIS MESSENGERS. ALL OTHER THINGS AND THE WAY THIS UNIVERSE IS MONITORED ARE CONTROLLED BY SCIENTIFIC LAWS THAT GOD HAD PUT AND APPLIED.
For example, when Allah sent Mouses and his miracle - the stick- to pharaohs and they didn't believe him , He sent some minor punishments in case they might make the people believe and submit to their God. What were these punsihments , Koran says: "..so we sent upon them the flood and the locusts and the lice and the frogs and the blood as distinct signs..."7-133..................... Now I thought a bit , River Nile always throughout history make floods , till the High Dam was built only around 50 yrs ago( 1956 AD). So a simple SCIENTIFIC explanation for this aya from koran , is that the Nile flooded more and as there were no sewage system at that time, water collected on the streets in huge amounts that swamps were created. What follows is that swamp creatures will gather around these ( locusts , lice,frogs..). Another explanantion is that also locusts used to invade Egypt in old times in summer.. Whatever the explanaion , the point is there are simple scientific explanations for these occurings , yet in Koran it is said that these were punishments too.
So My point is:
A last word for scientists who do not believe in God,. Sorry , but in my opinion, you are scientists , but not wise and actually you got a lot of ignorance..Tell me:
*Why believe in : Energy is neither created nor destroyed , but not in God is neither created nor destroyed????
*Why believe in : the prescence of parallel worlds and don't believe the prescence of a world of Jinn , Angels ?
*Why believe there are things that we do not know about and do not see , yet find it difficult to believe about heaven , hell , jinn , angels and GOD, simply cause we can't see them?
*Who said that the prescence of scientifc explanation for things means there are no God? Actually they are a proof that he exists... (was this article wrriten by itself or by chance??or did someone wrote it...? were these scientific laws made and work in such harmonious way by themselves or did someone put them there...?)
A last comment about scientists who believe . Such scientists the more they read , learn , discover , search ... the more they feel God's power and knowledge and hence fear him and believe in him more and more. That explains the aya from koran I mentioned at the beginning of the article..

So My point is:
- GOD made the laws of science
- God uses these laws to control the universe
- God uses these laws to test some people, punish others and reward others as well.
- God may change these laws in special rare circumstances to prove that these laws are his creation and can be changed at any time. ( Prophets' miracles)
- God made other whole pack of rules that are used for same purposes (punishing,rewarding,controlling,creating,.....just everything..)
