Scientific Miracles of the Quran - Introduction

The Quran contains within its words many miracles which prove it to be Allah's word. One of these attributes is the remarkable number of scientific truths which are contained in the Book of Islam. In this book which was revealed over fourteen centuries ago to the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah bless him and grant him peace), there are innumerable examples of information humanity have only been able to uncover by the technology of the 20th and 21st centuries. 

Of course, we should not view the Quran as a book of science for it is primarily a book of moral and spiritual guidance. However, many scientific facts that are expressed in an extremely concise and profound manner, within the verses of the Quran, have only been discovered by scientists with the aid of the technological advancement of the 20th and 21st centuries.
