Muslims believe in Allah, His Messenger Muhammad (saas) and the Qur’an. Whilst believers don’t need these modern discoveries to prove that the Qur’an is the word of Allah – this truth is already clear – these new facts certainly show doubters that the Qur'an is totally compatible with science. However, we must always remember that the Qur'an is a book that distinguishes between truth and falsehood – and this is its outstanding characteristic. In addition, the Qur’an perfectly reflects the infinite knowledge and wisdom of Allah. The purpose of this book is to help people with very little religious belief understand they cannot ignore the facts contained in the Qur’an. For Muslims, it will simply add to their knowledge. In one verse of the Qur’an our Lord says:
We will show them Our Signs on the horizon and within themselves until it is clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not enough for your Lord that He is a witness of everything? (Surah Fussilat, 53)
