Introduction

It is true that I was born and brought up as a good Muslim, yet I admit that I was not satisfied at being a Moslem just because I was born so. That is why after getting my B.A., in English Literature. I started immediately a course of Islamic Studies.
These studies gave me the happiest and most gratifying time in my whole life, a feeling I would like to share with as many people as possible. They also, greatly satisfied my inner thirst for knowledge, so I find it my duty to share it with you.
The Holy Qur'an is not only sent for Arabic- speaking people , but it is a Holy Message for all peoples of the world. Hence the message of the Holy Qur'an speaks a universal Language that appeals to everyone irrespective of colour, religion or nationality i.e. the language of science. Here are two verses: the first shows the universality of the Message in the Holy Qur'an, and the second shows its new scientific Message :

O mankind, We have created you
male and female, and appointed you
races and tribes, that you may know
one another. Surely the noblest
among you in the sight of God is
the most godfearing of you. God is
All –knowing , All-aware.
Chapter 49 verse 13



We shall show them our signs in the
horizons and
in themselves ,till it is clear to them
that it is the truth. Suffices it not
as to thy Lord, that He is witness over,
everything ?
Chapter 41 verse 52

This is a modest attempt at proving the authenticity of every word in the Holy Qur'an. Some orientalists propagated the idea that Islam is the cause of our backwardness, I tell them that we are backward simply because we are a long way away from the teachings of Islam. If we are backward it is because of the stifling influence of foreign occupation. They made it their duty to suppress Islam and Muslims, and unfortunately they are still vigorously practicing this game. Had they had any belief in God they would not have suppressed the most truthful message the most healthy system. Had humanity followed such a system we would have led a much better way of life. That is why the first chapter of the first section shows everyone the status of science and scientists in Islam. The rest of the book deals with the scientific nature of some of the verses of the Holy Qur'an.
