REFUTING ALLEGATIONS OF SCIENTIC ERRORS IN THE HOLY QUR’AN

We all know that the Holy Qur’an contains several narrations and prophecies that are fully consistent with modern scientific facts and knowledge. However, the enemies of Islam have always been ridiculing the Holy Qur’an as (God forbid) containing fallacies contradicting the proven scientific facts and laws. These bigots have been active in their conspiracies for a very long time. However, with the advent of the Internet and social media, their malicious activities have increased many folds, and they have also found some success in creating doubts in the minds of many Muslims, especially the younger generation.

Their notion is, that since the Holy Qur’an contains scientific errors (according to them), therefore it cannot be the word of the All-knowing God. This presentation attempts to highlight some of the main objections raised by these Orientalists, and suggests some explanations and rejoinders to these allegations. The main purpose is to remind all, especially the youth, that it is our duty to study the Holy Qur’an deeply and purposefully and become aware of all the objections raised against it, responding to these false allegations in a scholarly and scientific manner.
