Skeptic? Simple Answers Using Quran and Science

- If every action is predestined, how can humans have free will?
- Is the theory of evolution compatible with the story of Adam and Eve?
- Why does a merciful God allow suffering?
- Can God create an immovable stone He cannot move?
- If every entity has a creator, who created God?

Does this book really answer these centuries-old paradoxes? Yes, it does!

A close study of the Quran reveals that the ’human way of thinking’ and ’logic used in the Quran’ differ in many key areas. This book uses logic from the Quran to explain these paradoxes. The solutions do not contradict Islamic beliefs or scientific facts. In addition, this book does not draw on philosophical traditions and therefore is easy to understand. To enhance the reading experience, the book incorporates colors and graphics.

Here is one example. The Quran mentions the name of and praises Mary (mother of Prophet Jesus PBUH). The Quran even has a chapter titled ’Mary.’ But the Quran does not include the names of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) grandmothers, mother, wives, daughters, and granddaughter. This includes his granddaughter, born during the Prophet’s lifetime. Why are their names missing? Only Allah knows. This is not the way humans typically think.

The theory of evolution is discussed without rejecting scientific evidence. How can the Quran, the Word of Allah, contradict science, which is knowledge given by Allah?

For people with curious minds from any religion, Skeptic? Simple Answers Using Quran and Science has something special to offer: explanations to some of the most enduring and puzzling paradoxes in history!

This book would be an excellent addition to a school or college curriculum.
