Filozofija znanosti – kur'ansko viđenje
Philosophy of science – Qur'anic view

Summary/Abstract: In the Holy Qur’an there are more than 750 verses in which natural phenomena are called upon and referred to. The majority of these verses call upon the study of the book of genesis and reflection of its contents. As it has been confirmed by many prominent Muslim scholars, Qur’an, however, is not a book of natural sciences, but a book of guidance and enlightenment. The reference to the natural phenomena in Qur’an aims to focus man’s attention on the power and glory of the Wise Creator of the universe through research and reflection on natural phenomena and creatures, and to encourage man to yearn to be close to Him. From Qur’ans perspective, natural phenomena are signs – ayat – of the Almighty, and any kind of comprehending nature is analog to the comprehending of signs by which we gain knowledge of the Master of those signs.
