Hundred Questions - Religion and Science
Religion and Science
Q5 What is the relationship between Religion and Science?
A5 It should be known that the religion that is true is the real Islam and the science that is not wrong and is absolutely correct is the law of nature. The wise people know that Islam is the religion of nature. That is, it is not against the law of nature, rather it accords with it. This means that proto-Islam and proto-science is one and the same thing. Just as a stream, which sometimes flows parting itself into two and sometimes mingles, but it is the one and the same in every state and condition.
The gist of this explanation is that the time has now arrived for science and religion to mingle entirely with each other, and as a result of which, many people of the world will undergo resurrection and because of their ignorance of religion, will be despondent. As it is said in a noble Hadith: "Islam started as a stranger and will return to being a stranger". (Muslim, Chapter 62, Tradition No. 281).
