In Islam, there is no conflict between faith in God and modern scientific knowledge. Indeed, for many centuries during the Middle Ages, Muslims led the world in scientific inquiry and exploration. The Qur'an itself, revealed 14 centuries ago, is filled with scientific facts and imagery that are supported by modern findings.The Qur'an instructs Muslims to "contemplate the wonders of creation" (Qur'an 3:191). The entire universe, which was created by Allah, follows and obeys His laws. Muslims are encouraged to seek knowledge, explore the universe, and find the "Signs of Allah" in His creation. Allah says: "Behold! In the creation of the heavens and the earth;in the alternation of the night and the day;in the sailing of ships through the ocean, for the profit of mankind;in the rain which Allah sends down from the skies,and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead;in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth;in the change of the winds,and the clouds which they trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth;here indeed are Signs for a people that are wise"(Qur'an 2:164)
