Study of The’Scientific Miracle’ in the Qur’an and a Note About the ‘Scientific Miracle’ Bandwagon Peddlers
by Abu Iyaad Amjad Rafiq (Hafidhahullah)
Making the discussion of the “scientific miracle” of the Qur’aan or investigating and scientifically studying the natural phenomena into the overall basis of the call to Islaam, or giving an exaggerated emphasis to it and is a deviation from the Methodology of the Prophets. It is even worse when it is made the basis of Imaan for Muslims(!!).
========
Numerous people have been leading the ‘Scientific Miracle’ bandwagon and directing average Muslims into using this as a foundational basis for inviting others to Islam, and making it an essential part of having certainty in one’s faith. No doubt this subject area has it’s place but taking this particular approach is not the way of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’ah in da’wah and the followers of the Salafi methodology have been warning against this for a very long time
===========
Many individuals – when they interface with non-Muslims – exaggerate in the so-called “Scientific Miracle” and when they approach Non-Muslims to give da’wah, their primary method is to resort to this discussion of the “Scientific Miracle”, and often this includes speaking about Allaah’s book, and interpreting it, without knowledge and without guidance and without light and refuge is from Allaah.
And often if an intelligent and shrewd non-Muslim is being invited, he may be able to overcome the ignorant Muslim, cause confusion and doubt, and refuge is from Allaah.
So the ignorant Muslim goes back and then tries to find further correlation between scientific data and the texts of the Book and the Sunnah and so on hoping to impress the one who he is calling. And this approach has become widespread and has become the basis of all da’wah work to some people, and hence the great inherent danger. In reality, it is only something that encourages doubt in ones’ Imaan and also excessive speculation and speaking without knowledge. #ExMuslim
———–
Many of the Ahl al-Kalaam of old stated that a person’s faith is not valid until and unless he knows this proof and is able to demonstrate it with all its (long winded) premises. In a similar way the ‘scientific miracle’ bandwagon peddlers have misguided thousands of people into this ideology, and led them into da’wah programs and methods of argument and debate which imply or leave a person with the notion that his faith is weak, deficient and doubtful unless he builds certainty through establishing the Qur’an’s truthfulness through this (#speculative) method.
===========
We see today confused and ignorant individuals like #AdnanRashid and #HamzaTzortzis at one time arguing vociferously with the atheists for years on end in certain affairs (like #embryology), and then making a large turnaround, after being hammered and pounded by those very shrewd and cunning atheists.
