The following are some comments of scientists !" on the scientific miracles in the Holy Quran. #ll of these comments have $een ta%en from the videotape entitled This is the Truth. &n this videotape' you can see and hear the scientists while they are giving the following comments. !( Dr. T. ). *. +ersaud is +rofessor of #natomy' +rofessor of +ediatrics and Child Health' and +rofessor of ,$stetrics' -ynecology' and .eproductive Sciences at the /niversity of Manito$a' 0innipeg' Manito$a' Canada. There' he was the Chairman of the Department of #natomy for !1 years. He is well2%nown in his field. He is the author or editor of 33 te4t$oo%s and has pu$lished over !5! scientific papers. &n !66!' he received the most distinguished award presented in the field of anatomy in Canada' the 7.C.8. -rant #ward from the Canadian #ssociation of #natomists. 0hen he was as%ed a$out the scientific miracles in the Quran which he has researched' he stated the following: 9The way it was e4plained to me is that Muhammad was a very ordinary man. He could not read' didnt %now how" to write. &n fact' he was an illiterate. #nd were tal%ing a$out twelve actually a$out fourteen" hundred years ago. :ou have someone illiterate ma%ing profound pronouncements and statements and that are ama;ingly accurate a$out scientific nature. #nd & personally cant see how this could $e a mere chance. There are too many accuracies and' li%e Dr. Moore' & have no difficulty in my mind that this is a divine inspiration or revelation which led him to these statements.< +rofessor +ersaud has included some Quranic verses and sayings of the +rophet Muhammad' may the mercy and $lessings of -od $e upon him' in some of his $oo%s. He has also presented these verses and sayings of the +rophet Muhammad at several conferences. 3( Dr. 7oe =eigh Simpson is the Chairman of the Department of ,$stetrics and -ynecology' +rofessor of ,$stetrics and -ynecology' and

+rofessor of Molecular and Human -enetics at the 8aylor College of Medicine' Houston' Te4as' /S#. >ormerly' he was +rofessor of ,$2-yn and the Chairman of the Department of ,$2-yn at the /niversity of Tennessee' Memphis' Tennessee' /S#.

He studied these two sayings of the +rophet Muhammad e4tensively' noting that the first forty days constitute a clearly distinguisha$le stage of em$ryo2genesis. He was particularly impressed $y the a$solute precision and accuracy of those sayings of the +rophet Muhammad. Then' during one conference' he gave the following opinion: 9So that the two hadeeths @the sayings of the +rophet Muhammad( that have $een noted provide us with a specific time ta$le for the main em$ryological development $efore forty days. #gain' the point has $een made' & thin%' repeatedly $y other spea%ers this morning: these hadeeths could not have $een o$tained on the $asis of the scientific %nowledge that was availa$le at" the time of their writing . . . . &t follows' & thin%' that not only there is no conflict $etween genetics and religion $ut' in fact' religion can guide science $y adding revelation to some of the traditional scientific approaches' that there e4ist statements in the Quran shown centuries later to $e valid' which support %nowledge in the Quran having $een derived from -od<. ?( Dr. A. Marshall 7ohnson is +rofessor Ameritus of #natomy and Developmental 8iology at Thomas 7efferson /niversity' +hiladelphia' +ennsylvania' /S#.

the Seventh Medical Conference in Dammam' Saudi #ra$ia' +rofessor 7ohnson said in the presentation of his research paper: 9Summary: The Quran descri$es not only the development of e4ternal form' $ut emphasi;es also the internal stages' the stages inside the em$ryo' of its creation and development' emphasi;ing maCor events recogni;ed $y contemporary science.< #lso he said: 9#s a scientist' & can only deal with things which & can specifically see. & can understand em$ryology and developmental $iology. & can understand the words that are translated to me from the Quran. #s & gave the e4ample $efore' if & were to transpose myself into that era' %nowing what & %new today and descri$ing things' & could not descri$e the things which were descri$ed. & see no evidence for the fact to refute the concept that this individual' Muhammad' had to $e developing this information from some place. So & see nothing here in conflict with the concept that divine intervention was involved in what he was a$le to write.< D( Dr. 0illiam 0. Hay is a well2%nown marine scientist. He is +rofessor of -eological Sciences at the /niversity of Colorado' 8oulder' Colorado' /S#. He was formerly the Dean of the .osenstiel School of Marine and #tmospheric Science at the /niversity of Miami' Miami' >lorida' /S#. #fter a discussion with +rofessor Hay a$out the Qurans mention of recently discovered facts on seas' he said: 9& find it very interesting that this sort of information is in the ancient scriptures of the Holy Quran' and & have no way of %nowing where they would come from' $ut & thin% it is e4tremely interesting that they are there and that this wor% is going on to discover it' the meaning of some of the passages.< #nd when he was as%ed a$out the source of the Quran' he replied: 90ell' & would thin% it must $e the divine $eing.< E( Dr. -erald C. -oeringer is Course Director and #ssociate +rofessor of Medical Am$ryology at the Department of Cell 8iology' School of Medicine' -eorgetown /niversity' 0ashington' DC' and /S#. During the Aighth Saudi Medical Conference in .iyadh' Saudi #ra$ia' +rofessor -oeringer stated the following in the presentation of his research paper: 9&n a relatively few aayahs @Quranic verses( is contained a rather comprehensive description of human development from the time of commingling of the gametes through organogenesis. *o such distinct and complete record of human development' such as classification'

terminology' and description' e4isted previously. &n most' if not all' instances' this description antedates $y many centuries the recording of the various stages of human em$ryonic and fetal development recorded in the traditional scientific literature.< 1( Dr. :oshihide Fo;ai is +rofessor Ameritus at To%yo /niversity' Hongo' To%yo' 7apan' and was the Director of the *ational #stronomical ,$servatory' Mita%a' To%yo' 7apan. He said:9& am very much impressed $y finding true astronomical facts in the" Quran' and for us the modern astronomers have $een studying very small pieces of the universe. 0eve concentrated our efforts for understanding of a" very small part. 8ecause $y using telescopes' we can see only very few parts of" the s%y without thin%ing a$out the" whole universe. So' $y reading the" Quran and $y answering to the Guestions' & thin% & can find my future way for investigation of the universe.< H( +rofessor TeCatat TeCasen is the Chairman of the Department of #natomy at Chiang Mai /niversity' Chiang Mai' Thailand. +reviously' he was the Dean of the >aculty of Medicine at the same university. During the Aighth Saudi Medical Conference in .iyadh' Saudi #ra$ia' +rofessor TeCasen stood up and said: 9During the last three years' & $ecame interested in the Quran . . . . >rom my study and what & have learned from this conference' & $elieve that everything that has $een recorded in the Quran fourteen hundred years ago must $e the truth' which can $e proved $y the scientific means. Since the +rophet Muhammad could neither read nor write' Muhammad must $e a messenger who relayed this truth' which was revealed to him as an enlightenment $y the one who is eligi$le as the" creator. This creator must $e -od. Therefore' & thin% this is the time to say La ilaha illa Allah' there is no god to worship e4cept #llah @-od(' Muhammadur rasoolu Allah' Muhammad is Messenger @+rophet( of #llah @-od(. =astly' & must congratulate for the e4cellent and highly successful arrangement for this conference . . . . & have gained not only from the scientific point of view and religious point of view $ut also the great chance of meeting many well2%nown scientists and ma%ing many new friends among the participants. The most precious thing of all that & have gained $y coming to this place is La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur rasoolu Allah' and to have $ecome a Muslim.<

#fter all these e4amples we have seen a$out the scientific miracles in the Holy Quran and all these scientists comments on this' let us as% ourselves these Guestions: Could it $e a coincidence that all this recently discovered scientific information from different fields was mentioned in the Quran' which was revealed fourteen centuries agoI Could this Quran have $een authored $y Muhammad' may the mercy and $lessings of -od $e upon him' or $y any other human $eingI

The only possi$le answer is that this Quran must $e the literal word of -od' revealed $y Him.
