| Summary: | There has been a lot, more than enough, talks, readings and writings on the axiomic (i.e
QaÌiyyah musallamah) scientific causative agent(s), from non-Muslim and Muslims alike.
Much has also been said from an Islamic and a Muslim perspective. But the question remains
whether or not the notion is totally rejected from the Qur’anic point of view, or it is totally
approved. This paper will discuss the notion, which sees the Qur’an as a model for anything
and everything. Philosophy, Sciences, Technology, and Religion unanimously agree that
anything and everything must have a cause, and hence all ‘causeds’ must have a source;
philosophy is yet to substantively satisfy our quest, science is still struggling to allay our
fears, technology is yet to convince our minds of its danger(s), and religion has not been fully
allowed to freely proof its worth, where then lays the ‘causer’, the ‘medium’ and the
‘caused’? The paper will access some scientific notions of the causative agent(s) in the light
of the Qur’anic interpretation of such. The major focus of the paper will basically be on those
Qur’anic verses and instances, which are of relevance to ‘cause’ and ‘effect’; it will, based on
some Scientific presumption and Revelational instructions, submit that ‘the Scientific notion
of the causative agent(s) without exploring the religious evidence is unfounded, if not an
hoax. |
