Sub-section Four: The Qur’anic Challenge and Science:

 

One of the inevitable requirements for the Qur’an to be always valid and unquestionable is that it should fully agree with the definite unquestionable scientific facts and the new scientific definitive and decisive theories since its revelation to the Prophet (peace be upon him) up to the present time and through the future. This would meanwhile be practical evidence that the Qur’an is a Divine Revelation, for it is free from contradictions and discrepancies throughout the ages. The Holy Qur’an itself urges people to ponder on this point: “Will they not then ponder on the Qur'an? If it had been from other than Allah they would have found therein much incongruity.” (IV: 82) This matter, in its turn, indicates that the Qur’an can never by any means be from other than Allah.”[1]
