Faith and Reason: The Harmony between Islam and Science

 Islam encourages introspection, observation, and the pursuit of knowledge. Instead of dismissing science, Islam has traditionally welcomed it as a divine mandate. As the Quran says: “Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day are signs for those of understanding—who remember Allah while standing...
