Islam and science
Difference between Islam and science
In my following response I have tried to specify distinction between religion and science. They are both two different knowledge area which influence our lives and help us live our lives peacefully and successfully. Religion has more to do with our heart, emotional mind and spiritual aspect while science explains the physical laws of our world and helps us make this worldly life more comfortable and enjoyable. They do not compete one another.
Religion has more to do with right and wrong of and action. Science will tell you how can we do it for example science tells you you can make clones of human beings but religion tells you, will it be morally right to do so? How is it going to help our society and our life as human beings.
Ibn al-Haytham, (965–1039)
"Truth is sought for itself. And those who are engaged in a quest for knowledge for the sake of the truth are not interested in anything else. The search for truth is difficult and the road that leads to it is difficult.”
Religion is where you can't question anything or anybody. (I still can't understand why the almighty,merciful god hates when associated with partners).Where as in science,constructive criticism is always appreciated and evidence is always given the value.
Islam is a religion. It claims certain statements about the world are immutàbly true. Science does not.
