[0:00]Donna regime smilla rahmanir rahim' I begin in the name of the

[0:07]Almighty God the compassionate the merciful the one who has created everything

[0:12]in utmost perfection and may the peace and blessings of the Almighty

[0:16]God be upon his pure and beloved messenger the holy prophets Muhammad

[0:21]sallallahu aleyhi wa ala la ma salli ala muhammad muhammad and his

[0:26]immaculate progeny of the idol bade peace be upon them respected brothers

[0:32]and sisters assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh one of the ideas that we

[0:41]see today the media perpetuating one of the impressions that we find

[0:48]many groups parties especially those who have an anti religious agenda perpetuating

[0:55]an idea that we see many atheists or atheistic organizations and groups

[1:05]perpetuating is the idea that there is this internal conflict this essential

[1:12]conflict between religion and science these two cannot exist together as we

[1:20]are seeing more and more scientific advant advantage religion religion was for

[1:31]the past when people could not make sense of this universe and

[1:35]there were many phenomena that they could not explain religion was helpful

[1:40]it gave you some sort of explanation mythical legendary explanation but now

[1:46]that you have science and you can explain many aspects of you

[1:50]the universe and life why do you need religion anymore therefore religion

[1:55]does not is not supported by science in fact there's a conflict

[2:00]conflict and clash between the two in our discussion tonight my dear

[2:05]brothers and sisters I would like to shed some light on this

[2:11]very important discussion is that the case when it comes to our

[2:13]religion the religion of Islam the Holy Quran is there really this

[2:20]conflict between science and religion does a religious person mean a person

[2:27]who does not fully believe in science or that when there is

[2:32]a clash between science and religion a religious person is the one

[2:35]who says no I'll just blindly accept religion and I'll disregard science

[2:40]or there is absolutely no clash between religion and science because they

[2:47]are two dimensions instituted by one designer and one creator one is

[2:53]at the materialistic physical metaphysical level and one is at the spiritual

[3:00]level let's first start this discussion by quickly examining the position of

[3:07]the Holy Quran in relation to science many people today are asking

[3:12]is there science in the Holy Quran are there scientific discoveries that

[3:16]we can draw from the Holy Quran how come the Holy Quran

[3:18]doesn't mention some very important scientific discoveries in fact I remember even

[3:24]once a teenager asked me say it how come the Holy Quran

[3:30]does not talk about dinosaurs when these are very important creations and

[3:33]beings why doesn't the Quran make a reference to them the Holy

[3:37]Quran in short is a book of guidance Allah has revealed the

[3:43]Holy Quran to show us the way to show us the light

[3:46]to show us how to be decent citizens in our societies how

[3:49]to worship the Almighty God and how to prepare for the Acura

[3:57]that is the objective of this holy quran to show humans how

[4:02]they can be humans and humane and stay on the right path

[4:08]yes sometimes allah subhanaw taala shares with us signs in the holy

[4:13]quran there are scientific references that point to his power that point

[4:18]to his knowledge that point to the greatness of his creation but

[4:21]the quran is not a book of science and it was not

[4:25]meant to be a book of science even though it does can

[4:27]tane some science having said that my dear brothers and sisters briefly

[4:34]I would like to share with you some scientific references in the

[4:37]Holy Quran before we examine this very important question is there a

[4:43]conflict between science and religion the holy quran is filled with references

[4:49]to scientific discoveries or scientific realities that we are experiencing today for

[4:56]example the holy quran in one verse states that the source of

[4:59]our life is water allah has created from water every living being

[5:04]science has confirmed in the last centuries that every living organism needs

[5:12]moisture water in order to be formed created and to survive without

[5:17]water you cannot have life that's why today scientists when they're trying

[5:24]to see if there's life out there in the universe what is

[5:26]one sign that they look for if there is something on that

[5:31]planet then they know there could be life they look for water

[5:33]if there is water then maybe there is life but if there

[5:37]is no water they don't even bother because they know that life

[5:40]cannot exist without water this is something that allows pano to Allah

[5:44]mentions in the holy quran fourteenth centuries ago another scientific reference in

[5:50]the holy quran we have these beautiful verses which point to the

[5:55]spherical nature of the earth for example Allah subhana WA Ta'ala says

[6:01]rub bully morality while Muhammad the Lord of the East's plural and

[6:05]the west's plural if you have a flat surface how many east

[6:11]and west do you have how can you conceive of multiple East's

[6:18]and multiple West's how if you have a sphere because when you

[6:20]have a ball when you have a sphere when you have a

[6:26]round shaped object then east and west becomes relative it depends on

[6:29]your location and point on the map you can consider that part

[6:32]east that part west here in America we're considered as being in

[6:37]the western part of the world the Western Hemisphere well if you're

[6:41]in China you could look and say no you're to the east

[6:44]of China you're in the eastern hemisphere right it's relative nothing is

[6:50]fixed you can only conceive of multiple east and west if you

[6:55]have a sphere and so this is a reference in the Holy

[7:00]Quran another scientific reference in the Holy Quran is the presence of

[7:05]gravity that keeps the stars and the planets in an orbit allah

[7:10]subhanaw taala says look how I have held the universe together belayer

[7:16]ammidon tyrone aha Allah says look at this universe there are invisible

[7:23]pillars holding it together now back then in 7th century Arabia when

[7:31]people had no conception of gravity and the Quran does not use

[7:34]terms that people are not familiar with because the Quran is speaking

[7:37]in their language how do you explain gravity to an average Arab

[7:42]person in Arabia for 14 centuries ago how do you say in

[7:47]one simple sentence you would say there's a pillar that's holding because

[7:51]what does gravity has that power to hold things you would say

[7:55]there's a pillar but you can't see it it's an invisible type

[8:00]of pillar force that's holding things together that's a reference to gravity

[8:05]another scientific reference in the Holy Quran that we have is that

[8:09]allah subhana wa ta'ala speaks of mountains as pegs al tada well

[8:15]in the past this was not something that was really understood by

[8:19]people later on when modern science discovered tectonic plates how the crust

[8:25]of the earth moves they came to know the role of mountains

[8:28]when you have these big mountains and these you know mountain chains

[8:36]basically these mountains go deep into the earth and they stabilize the

[8:41]crust of the earth and that's exactly what a peg does what

[8:44]does a nail do if you want to hang something on the

[8:48]wall you drive a nail through it it keeps it fixed Allah

[8:52]says the mountains are pegs there are nails that keep the earth

[8:54]fake that keep the earth fixed that in itself is a hint

[8:58]that the earth is moving hence it needs a peg to keep

[9:02]it in place otherwise why do you need a peg if it's

[9:04]not moving if it's fixed it's flat there is no movement then

[9:08]you don't need a peg that in itself is an indication the

[9:10]earth underneath you moves and hence there's a beautiful verse in the

[9:15]Holy Quran a number of scholars most law vessels exit seeds exegetes

[9:20]of the Quran they say this is a reference to the day

[9:25]of judgment but some scholars say no this applies to this world

[9:28]as well even before the day of judgement what are eligible as

[9:32]I made a turn and you see the mountains they're fixed why

[9:37]here tomorrow what are eligible at tassimo hajimete at 10:00 why here

[9:43]tomorrow Mara's Sahab you look at the mountains you see them fixed

[9:46]they're not moving but they're moving like the clouds how did the

[9:52]clouds move sometimes thousands of miles these mountains have also moved thousands

[9:57]of miles this was something that was discovered through tectonic plates another

[10:00]scientific reference in the Quran we see that when a lime takes

[10:07]an oath in the stars Allah subhana WA Ta'ala states fala oxen

[10:10]will be mawatha and new Jim Allah makes an oath in the

[10:17]position of stars and he doesn't say the star itself why the

[10:20]position of stars back then and seventh century of Arabia people probably

[10:25]did not understand the depths of this verse but today's scholars are

[10:29]understanding that the light that you see from the stars is not

[10:37]the star itself in fact the star moved it may have even

[10:40]exploded and millions of lay millions of years later you're seeing the

[10:44]light because sometimes it takes so many light years for the light

[10:50]to travel from a star to our planet so the Quran says

[10:51]mawatha a new gem the position of the star right now you're

[10:56]seeing the position of the star back then not the star itself

[10:59]this was something not known at the time and my dear brothers

[11:04]and sisters there are tens and hundreds of such references the verse

[11:07]that speaks about the two bodies of water not joining one another

[11:11]there's a barrier the verse that talks about the embryonic development and

[11:15]the fetus the so many other verses that have these amazing scientific

[11:21]references and there is not a single scientific theory that has been

[11:28]established a law or a reality that disproves even a single verse

[11:36]in the holy quran ask yourself this question how is it that

[11:40]a man 14 centuries ago in the deserts of Arabia away from

[11:46]the centres of knowledge and civilization he was not in Rome or

[11:49]the Persian civilization or the Chinese civilization they had some science maybe

[11:55]some advancements how is it that a man who grew up as

[11:58]an orphan who never went to school he never wrote he never

[12:02]read he was never schooled or educated by anyone suddenly at age

[12:05]40 he produces a book that has all these references and after

[12:08]14 centuries no established scientific law disproves any part of the Quran

[12:17]does this not mean that the Holy Prophet sallallaahu anyone is connected

[12:20]to allah subhanahu wata'ala there are a number of scientific references in

[12:24]the Holy Quran having said that let's now address this very important

[12:27]question so is there a clash between science and religion there are

[12:33]a number of ways my dear brothers and sisters by which we

[12:36]can examine this very fundamental question but I would like to share

[12:40]with you one way one angle if you want to know if

[12:43]there is a conflict between science and religion why don't you look

[12:48]at the life of scientists if there was a conflict these two

[12:52]could not go together and that science really disproves religion rejects religion

[12:57]then we should have seen that most scientists around the world would

[13:01]be what they should have been 1 atheists not believing in religion

[13:06]but once we look at objective statistics what do we see the

[13:14]media by the way would like to portray to us certain types

[13:17]of media that most scientists if your intellectual if you're a scientist

[13:22]you don't believe in this fake religion you don't believe in in

[13:28]God this is a fairy tale and you are an atheist if

[13:33]you are really a scientist that's the idea they'd like to perpetuate

[13:36]a lot of atheists you'll hear them saying that but once you

[13:40]examine the statistics of scientists and their belief system in fact we

[13:46]find most scientists believe in God most scientists are religious yes there

[13:51]are scientists who are not but most of them are religious and

[13:57]in fact we find that there's a direct link between the development

[14:01]of the religious sciences and the development of the Natural Sciences throughout

[14:08]history and it was usually religious scientists who explored this nature for

[14:13]us and they took this knowledge that we have to a higher

[14:16]level now most of them did believe in God and they were

[14:22]religious people see if you look at Western civilization let's go back

[14:25]to the 4th century BC during the time of Aristotle our star

[14:28]will really set up the Western world to examine the natural world

[14:35]but with the fall of the Roman civilization basically his ideas were

[14:41]abandoned science was abandoned in the West look at the Dark Ages

[14:44]the Middle Ages for centuries and centuries Europe was very backwards in

[14:49]their science who came and developed the ideas of Aristotle revived them

[14:56]and really launched a scientific revolution who were they there were Muslim

[15:01]scientists and scholars who believed in God and believed in religion they've

[15:05]been see now for example you also have been rushed for instance

[15:12]they came and they took the thoughts of Aristotle and developed it

[15:15]and they were scientists in fact you find that Muslim scientists were

[15:20]at the forefront in math and geography and astronomy in physics and

[15:26]medicine in even you know the study of lights and optics Muslim

[15:34]scientists who believed in God actually were the catalyst for this scientific

[15:39]revolution that we're witnessing today without that the world would be different

[15:43]today the West would have been different so it's unfair to say

[15:47]that if you're a scientist then you don't believe in God there

[15:49]is a clash if anything most people who are scientists they actually

[15:56]do believe in God and look at America as the best example

[15:58]of my dear brothers and sisters the United States is arguably one

[16:02]of the most if not the most scientifically and technologically advanced country

[16:08]on Earth compare it to all other Western nations America is the

[16:13]most religious nation as well so where is this clash between science

[16:17]and religion if we have the most scientifically advanced country you would

[16:23]expect that the greatest percentage of atheism should be in the US

[16:27]but that's not the case according to some statistics only three percent

[16:30]of Americans declare themselves as atheists only three percent 90 percent of

[16:36]Americans believe in God or some sort of supernatural power ninety percent

[16:41]of Americans what is this an indication of in fact if you

[16:45]go and read articles written by believing scientists their blogs interviews with

[16:52]them you'll find so many American scientists who believe in God they're

[16:57]proud believers in the Almighty God they don't see any conflict between

[17:00]science and religion and in fact they state that if anything our

[17:08]belief in God pushes us to explore the natural world more because

[17:12]we want to see the creation of God we want to dissect

[17:17]the creation of God and appreciate the creation of God and hence

[17:22]many famous scientists they believed in God Isaac Newton he believed in

[17:26]God he was a firm staunch believer in the existence of God

[17:31]in fact the father of the big bang theory as a Christian

[17:34]priest he is considered the father of the Big Bang Theory he

[17:37]believes in God the one who decoded the the human genome product

[17:45]project he was an atheist then later on when he saw the

[17:47]great wonders of God he act we became a believer in God

[17:53]and we have so many other thousands and thousands of examples so

[17:56]there is no clash in fact scientists themselves are saying it's the

[18:02]media that takes these things out of proportion otherwise we as scientists

[18:05]when we work we're on the field working we're in the lab

[18:10]working you know monitoring discoveries we're not talking about a conflict between

[18:16]religion and science many of them in fact have their religion and

[18:19]they believe in God many of them believe in the day of

[18:23]judgment as well so this is something that the media would like

[18:26]you to believe they twist these ideas and they want to give

[18:32]you the impression that if you're smart if your intellectual if you're

[18:35]a scientist if you believe in science you have to give up

[18:37]the idea of believing in God and when you examine society you

[18:43]find that it's the exact opposite if anything if anything scientists are

[18:47]attracted to the belief in the Almighty God my dear brothers and

[18:51]sisters you know decades ago in the 70s and the 60s and

[18:56]the 80s so many people predicted what with these scientific advancements technological

[19:00]advancements the world would become secular many people predicted that 50 years

[19:08]later in 2020 2030 nobody will really believe in God anymore in

[19:12]religion anymore that's not the case in fact in many parts of

[19:17]the world we see people turning more to allah subhanaw taala to

[19:21]the belief in the almighty god yes this is not to deny

[19:25]that atheism is spreading in some areas because of the confusion they

[19:29]create we talked about the theory of evolution right they use that

[19:33]as ammunition to deny the existence of God and some people fall

[19:39]for that trap some people get confused but once they become objective

[19:43]in their analysis they see there is no clash evolution in no

[19:46]way disproves the existence of an intelligent creator so one indication my

[19:52]dear brothers and sisters one angle we can examine which tells us

[19:57]there is really no conflict as scientists themselves what their perceptions are

[20:01]what their attitudes are the existence of allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala hence and

[20:08]the religion of islam and from our Quran expect of my dear

[20:12]brothers and sisters we see that science fully supports religion Allah has

[20:17]the one who created our physical universe all the science comes from

[20:24]him scientific laws were determined by a las panettone and religion was

[20:27]given to us by Allah Subhan Allah there is no clash they

[20:30]come from one source I would like to share with you some

[20:36]examples how science supports religion and the religion of Islam we believe

[20:40]in what is called the fit Allah right we have that built-in

[20:43]compass that points us to the existence of a higher power of

[20:49]a creator what does science say about this today science has confirmed

[20:52]I would like to you to do research on this my dear

[20:55]brothers and sisters today science is confirming that human beings their human

[21:00]brain has been programmed to believe in God or a higher power

[21:07]and even evolutionary scientists are puzzled they're trying to figure out why

[21:13]why is it that humans have been hardwired to believe in God

[21:17]in a higher power this supports religion Allah tells us in religion

[21:22]I've put that compass in you even if you try to deny

[21:28]God deep down in your faith alive there are pointers to the

[21:31]existence of God scientists are puzzled today they're trying to examine the

[21:36]human brain even atheists scientists who are atheist they're puzzled why is

[21:42]it that were programmed to believe in God you have to defy

[21:47]and reject the belief in God to be an atheist by default

[21:50]the human being is not an atheist this is confirmed by science

[21:57]go and see the studies out there in fact just a few

[22:00]days ago I saw a fascinating study on a theist our dear

[22:05]brother dr.

[22:05]Ali he shared with me in that clip I researched it and

[22:09]I saw the study from the University of Helsinki in Finland even

[22:13]atheists deep down in their heart either they believe in God or

[22:20]they know there is a higher power that is God they may

[22:24]deny it until actually they'll come and deny it but their hearts

[22:28]are with God basically the way that this study was conducted is

[22:31]that researchers at the University of Helsinki they brought a number of

[22:40]atheists who identified as being avowed atheist we don't believe in God

[22:46]at all were atheists they basically got these electrodes and they connected

[22:53]them to their fingers to monitor the activity in their brain and

[22:57]their body and how they would respond emotionally and then they would

[23:01]ask them interesting questions for example they would tell them how do

[23:08]you feel about the following questions what if your friends were to

[23:15]turn against you what if your parents were to die some of

[23:19]them showed maybe some disturbance you know if you hear that your

[23:23]parents are going to die there are some activities some emotional response

[23:27]but nothing significant then they ask them the following wording they told

[23:35]them what if you dare God to kill your parents think of

[23:40]this idea challenge God right now say I challenge God to kill

[23:44]my parents he doesn't believe in God he's a firm atheist challenge

[23:47]God to kill your parents to have your parents die to turn

[23:50]your friends against you they saw the activity spiking they told him

[23:57]you're atheist you don't believe in God why did this question suddenly

[24:00]make you react in a certain way intellectually you said I don't

[24:04]believe in God it's all bogus it's all fairytales why is it

[24:08]that week when we challenged you and we said say the following

[24:10]I challenge God to take away my loved ones there was this

[24:16]spike in activity in your body you responded differently why this shows

[24:21]that inside even an atheist my dear brothers and sisters they do

[24:25]have pointers that take them to Allah but they are the ones

[24:32]who Allah has created that light inside their hearts but it's out

[24:36]of either arrogance ignorance or whatever other factors that they reject otherwise

[24:42]Allah has created that in our futur that's the meaning of it

[24:45]Allah and Allah gives us a beautiful example in the Holy Quran

[24:49]my dear brothers and sisters the Holy Quran is an amazing book

[24:54]that we should reflect on the examples that Allah gives us don't

[24:59]think these examples they apply to pass society no Allah gives us

[25:05]an example I used that a few years ago on the plane

[25:06]a Canadian lady asked me about the religion of Islam she did

[25:13]not believe in God we had a two-hour conversation about the existence

[25:15]of God and hamdulillah in the end she believed in allah subhanaw

[25:18]taala and the existence of a creator we had a very interesting

[25:23]conversation but I told her one thing I told her just imagine

[25:25]if now the plane is about to crash the captain announces that's

[25:33]it there's a technical failure we're crashing in 60 seconds of course

[25:37]I had to say oh the low voice not to scare anybody

[25:39]on the plane I told her what would you do I told

[25:44]her do you feel something in your heart that holds on to

[25:46]a higher power see she said I don't believe in God at

[25:51]that point I was giving her some you know arguments but still

[25:53]in the end she believed but at that point she was not

[25:57]believing yet I told her look at your heart right now what

[26:00]do you feel she thought for a moment tears came to her

[26:06]eyes she said yes I confirm I feel something in my heart

[26:10]that pulls me to a higher power to a creator someone who

[26:14]can save me she started crying she told me how did you

[26:16]discover this I've never heard of this before no one has shared

[26:21]with this with me how did you discover sit discover this example

[26:24]I said the Holy Quran she's like what do you mean Quran

[26:29]Quran there were no planes back then I said Allah uses the

[26:31]same concept Allah uses the example of a ship that when you're

[26:36]in the midst of a ship it's about to drown you turn

[26:38]to allah subhanho to anna oh allah save me o god save

[26:42]me o higher power save me but then when god's you you

[26:45]go in disbelief again she said the Quran says this example I

[26:49]said yes I just changed the ship and I use the example

[26:51]of an airplane because we're sitting in the airplane now look at

[26:57]the Holy Quran how it uses these pointers my dear brothers and

[26:59]sisters to point us to our creator to point us to allah

[27:01]subhanahu wa'ta'ala of course religion is supported by science there's nothing in

[27:10]science that disproves religion we talked about prophet adam and salam in

[27:15]previous discussions how there were human beings before him religion does confirm

[27:20]that religion tells us were created from clay the quran says it

[27:24]for centuries people were puzzled science did not know how to understand

[27:26]this now science is confirming that indeed the birthplace of all life

[27:31]on earth is the clay and the composition of clay is what

[27:37]gives rise to life everything in religion is supported by science my

[27:41]dear brothers and sisters of course the authentic religion that has not

[27:45]been tampered with we are talking about the pure path of the

[27:48]a debate but sometimes we need to understand religion my dear brothers

[27:53]and sisters some people turn away from religion because they think there's

[27:56]a clash a contradiction between science and religion because they have not

[28:01]fully understood religion once you understand religion you realize there is no

[28:04]contradiction whatsoever I'll share with you two quick examples once a brother

[28:10]came to me he told me said we have a hadith from

[28:13]Imam Ali Allah's Salam in which he says a number of things

[28:18]lead to or poverty one of them is the following worketh fatin

[28:24]estima ALL dinner you jubal uracil prolong the exposure to music leads

[28:32]to poverty this person said dear this person told me say do

[28:36]you really believe in this stuff he said stuff do you really

[28:38]believe in this stuff I'm like what's wrong it's like come on

[28:43]look at today the singers and the musicians were always exposed to

[28:46]singing there's a richest people they're not poor they have millions of

[28:51]dollars in their bank accounts how do I accept this honey there's

[28:53]there's a problem with this religion that says these things I told

[28:57]them have you become don't judge these narrations without understanding them without

[29:03]contemplating them let's examine what poverty means in religion maybe you have

[29:07]not understood religion and therefore you're turning away from it poverty doesn't

[29:11]mean lack of money who told you that understand fuchal in the

[29:18]Quranic concept and in the words of Alan Bates father means low

[29:21]quality of life you can have billions of dollars but if you're

[29:27]not enjoying that money if you're suicidal if you're depressed what good

[29:31]is that money giving you and subhanAllah today we see in our

[29:34]society these are official statistics my dear brothers and sisters 20 percent

[29:38]the average population 20 percent suffer from depression suicidal thoughts whereas amongst

[29:44]musicians and singers 73 percent of them suffer from depression and suicidal

[29:49]thoughts what happened to those millions of dollars did they give them

[29:53]a quality life no they didn't now you understand the words of

[29:56]Amir al-mumineen another example once we were studying this hadith as well

[30:05]and someone raised this issue in this same hadith about what leads

[30:09]to poverty imam ali alayhis-salam says avoid buying bread from the destitute

[30:16]the miss keen the fakir the poor buying bread from the poor

[30:21]leads to poverty I remember someone he said okay I can't accept

[30:28]that anymore in fact imam ali should encourage us to buy from

[30:30]the poor guy we should help him out why is he advising

[30:35]us against doing that why is he destroy discouraging us this doesn't

[30:38]make sense at all I told him wait a minute study study

[30:42]the texts don't quickly reject something because you did not understand it

[30:47]let's study here upon studying it we came to this beautiful realization

[30:51]in the past in the past if you were a poor person

[30:59]which poor person would sell bread remember in the past if you

[31:02]had bread at night you were lucky don't look at the world

[31:06]today let's look at the world fourteen centuries ago a thousand years

[31:09]ago remember there were families even in Europe as you know early

[31:16]as a hundred years ago there were famines millions of people would

[31:19]die today the world changed but not back then things were different

[31:23]who would sell their loaf of bread only the one who was

[31:29]absolutely desperate a poor person would not sell their bread unless they

[31:33]were desperate they were dying they needed medication it was an urgent

[31:36]thing a man is saying don't take advantage of the desperation of

[31:39]the poor person to give you a modern example today in a

[31:44]lot of throat world countries some people to make some money what

[31:47]do they sell they sell their organs they sell their kidneys right

[31:52]imagine if it snap says don't buy a kidney from someone that

[31:56]leads to reducing blessings from your life because you're exploiting the desperation

[32:02]of that human being if you really want to help him out

[32:07]give him money don't go and buy his organs tell him hey

[32:09]baby you want a thousand dollars I'll sponsor you don't sell your

[32:14]organ don't sell your kidney don't take advantage of their desperation in

[32:18]the past if you see a poor person selling bread the Imam

[32:21]says don't buy the bread from him he needs it more than

[32:25]you his kids need it at home go and help him out

[32:26]Allah will increase your Baraka and he'll increase the sustenance but oftentimes

[32:31]we misunderstand these things my dear brothers and sisters upon understanding religion

[32:36]we see that there is absolutely no conflict between the two I

[32:41]would like to conclude with this following final point having said that

[32:46]while there is no clash between religion and science my dear brothers

[32:53]and sisters but the pillar of our religious beliefs is to believe

[32:57]in the habe and the unseen look at Surat al-baqarah Allah gives

[33:03]us the qualities of the muta peen hood Enlil muttaqeen the Quran

[33:06]is a book of guy guidance to the Mokpo pain what are

[33:09]their qualities and levena yeomen una bill habe today I find this

[33:20]tradition especially of many youth every thing they have to rationalize through

[33:24]science if I don't see a non-muslim scientists commenting about some aspect

[33:30]of my faith it doesn't settle with me I don't accept it

[33:32]this is wrong my dear brothers and sisters once you've rationalized beyond

[33:38]any doubt that you have a creator Allah has a plan for

[33:41]you and the whole Allah has sent you prophets and you have

[33:45]the Quran as the book of guidance we accept what the prophet

[33:48]sallallahu alayhi wa alaa says we don't challenge it yes we have

[33:51]the right to ask we always welcome anyone asking but for me

[33:57]to choose how I believe okay if these scientists are saying the

[34:02]following I'll believe otherwise I don't this is wrong the pillar of

[34:06]our religion is to believe in the unseen to accept the word

[34:10]of allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala we don't blindly follow know we've rationalized everything

[34:15]in a previous stage that we have a creator he's wise he

[34:19]sent the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa la he gives us the book

[34:23]of guidance but if the Prophet tells me something I accept it

[34:25]wholeheartedly I don't challenge him I tell him unless what Allah you

[34:28]know what wait a minute let me go and ask X scientists

[34:32]at the University of Houston if he says what you're saying is

[34:34]true that I'll accept it this is not a true Muslim my

[34:37]dear brothers and sisters a true Muslim is the one who shows

[34:39]submission if Allah stated something in the Quran I wholeheartedly accept it

[34:47]yes I am encouraged to go and explore to understand the verse

[34:50]to understand the legacy of the Prophet but for me to challenge

[34:53]it just because science has not confirmed it yes yet or exciting

[35:00]to set something this is something that we should keep away and

[35:04]levena yeomen una bella habe they believe in the unseen and this

[35:08]beautiful religion that allah has given us my dear brothers and sisters

[35:12]we need to not only think of physical terms some people are

[35:19]obsessed with science maybe not everything in religion is all about science

[35:24]science basically explains to you this physical world you the human being

[35:27]you have many dimensions you have the spiritual dimension you have the

[35:31]soul religion prepares you for the Day of Judgment the science prepare

[35:34]you if you go and become a scientist that means call us

[35:38]you're saved on the day of judgment religion makes you a human

[35:43]being religion shows you how to worship Allah soprano to Allah how

[35:46]to have a sense of community how to look after one another

[35:49]how to be compassionate not everything everything is all about science yes

[35:55]science is a wonderful tool that Allah has given us we ask

[36:00]Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala to bless us in this holy month of

[36:02]ramadan with his wonderful signs and to bring our hearts closer to

[36:08]the holy quran allah allahu allah sayidina muhammadin wa ala nabina by

[36:14]hearing
