The Qur’an and Science: Exploring Their Deep Relationship Through the Laws of Mathematics, Physics, and Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

This study aimed to explore the deep relationship between the Qur’an and science through the principles of mathematics, physics, and artificial intelligence. The researcher adopted an inductive, analytical, and qualitative approach, using open-ended interviews. The study sample consisted of ten experts in natural sciences and Islamic studies. Key findings include:  A lack of knowledge in either Qur’anic sciences or life sciences leads to a limited perspective. Those who speak scientifically without understanding the Qur’an may see contradictions, often due to misunderstanding, scientific bias, or psychological and social factors. Likewise, religious figures rejecting scientific truths may do so for similar reasons. Most scientifically validated theories do not contradict the Qur’an. Many align with the meanings of certain verses. Rejecting science by religious scholars or rejecting religion by scientists negatively affects youth, leading to intellectual isolation, reduced opportunities, doubt, internal conflict, and even suicide, ultimately hindering societal advancement.
